Moisturiser for menopausal 57 year old

Hello, I’m 57 this year and I’ve noticed how dry the skin on my face is. Can anyone recommend a good moisturiser for skin that used to be combination?
thanks

Look at Nip&Fab.
Amazing results.

I really like Korres, santorini grape or something? Works well on my 60 ish skin.

Cerave lotion
Clinique DDML
Aveeno

All fantastic

Not sure about using it on your face but I’ve just bought a bottle of good old baby oil for my feet and legs that are increasingly dry during menopause.

Blimey it’s so good - immediate softness!

I bought it to add a bit of Dettol to use as a mosquito repellent (apparently an Australian thing that I read about the other day!).

Sukin Rosehip
Aveeno age renewal
Neals Yard wild Rosehip glow cream

budget option Lacura caviar cream (Aldi)

@BadActors that's a shame you're still going through menopause. I'm similar age and post.

I've started using squalane because of a recommendation here. My face was starting to go red in parts. Watching with Interest though.

My neck has suddenly gone crepey. I think I'll just have to live with it.

Hi OP. Oestrogen decline directly reduces sebum production & skin lipid content, so the change is most likely hormonal (than just environmental). The formula profile to look for that works best at this stage is ceramides/cholesterol/fatty acids. Glycerin & polyglutamic acid for deep humectancy, & peptide like palmitoyl tripeptide-1 for collagen support.

Hi @1emma19, could you recommend anything?
