Elemis marine cream alternative

[Counciltelly]

I’ve used marine cream for years. But the cost of living has got me or maybe as I’m older (mid 40s) I’m using more so I get through it quicker. I like that it really sinks in and has spf in it. Any ideas for something cheaper?

I used to use this, very nice product, not sure there is a dupe, some say Aldi Caviar.

I used to get it on eBay, it was always genuine.

I don’t use it now as I realised fragrance unnecessarily aggravates my acne prone skin and I use tretinoin these days.

My favourite Moistusiers are La Roche Posay toleriane and Illiyoon Ceramide Cream (korean it's available on Yesstyle or Style Vana). I wear a standalone Spf so can't comment on that but both are excellent.

I used the aldi dupe years ago and it was sticky on my skin. I’ll check out la Roche posay

I used La Mer for years and have now moved happily to Nivea soft cream. I was using the La Mer because I liked how it felt on my skin and the Nivea replicates this (and has slightly less dated packaging!). I tried the Nivea as La Mer took too long to deliver and I wasn't close to a shop where I could buy it, whilst Boots (for the Nivea) was just down the road. I can't say that I've noticed any difference to my skin's feel/ condition.
