In my 50’s and skin feels dry and saggy! Tried a few moisturisers but haven’t found one I love. Looking for something that feels like it sinks in well and makes my skin feel nourished. Origins planscription is my favourite so far.

I have middle aged dry thirsty skin and the best thing that works for me is Cetraben. I use some nice serums (the ordinary etc) on top of it but nothing beats the norishment Cetraben provides for my skin. I spend some time massaging it in and it definitely plumps. Drink a ton of water too.

Skin Food from Weleda the extra rich one is amazing and smells divine.

Kate Somerville vit c and retinol is lovely and thick and reduced fine lines.

I'm 50 and my skin is so much better for it. It also smells amazing.

I love the one from Lush called gorgeous. It's £45 so not cheap but it's so luxurious and feels wonderful on skin. I'm late 40's

Any moisturiser will do with a good retinol applied first. The ordinary is good. I started with the 2% and use the 5% now.
I’m 58, most people think I’m mid/late 40s.

Love pro collagen marine cream from Elemis. And also the ordinary. Swap between them

I'm 61. My skin is dry. But I found the biggest problem was that it often felt and looked dehydrated rather than dry. I use clinique moisture surge hydrating supercharged concentrate. The moisture surge did nothing for me but this concentrate is really good.

Thanks, that’s a few ideas to be looking at. Think I’ll try retinol as well.

I use the Korean brand "Soon Jung", it's the only thing that doesn't bring me out in a rash. Very light, sinks in beautifully and its not expensive at all.
Prior to this I used L'occitane, immortalle divine at £80 a pot.

Anything from Beauty pie. I'm 52 and I absolutely love the Uber Youth serum, and the Healthy Skin the ulimate anti ageing cream.
