We are back with another Tipsy Favs Edition! This week we are tackling moisturizers. Not surprisingly none of us use the same moisturizer. Some of us are using one, some of us are using two, some of us are just downright confused.
- Der: Clean & Clear Dual Action Moisturizer-I like it because it’s equally moisturizing and zit fighting and cheap too! I’ve used the same facewash and moisturizer for probably 10 years…. if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!
- Court: Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion-Very mild so doesn’t break me out with my acne prone complexion. The face wash is great too.
- Sarah: Beauticontrol Skin Logics Clear Oil Control Moisturizer and Beauticontrol SPF Booster 30+-The one on the left is for night-time. I like it because it helps keep my acne-prone skin clear while I sleep. The one on the right is for day-time. I like it because I have all day SPF protection, but it’s not greasy and doesn’t break me out like other moisturizers w/ sunscreen that I’ve tried.
- AK: Neutrogena Oil Free Moisture for Sensitive Skin and Aveeno Positively Ageless Daily Moisturizer SPF 30-I was using a more expensive moisturizer and wanted to go a little cheaper so I am sort of in an experimental phase of cheaper moisturizers right now. I’m using both of these and am liking both of them. I like that the Neutrogena one is really light but I like that the Aveeno one is going after that premature aging.
I’m with Court on the Cetaphil. And for not being a soapbar fan, I actually really like their antibacterial soap bar for my face. I keep it in a little plastic container with a lid and it last for months. Paying less than $3 is a bonus!
@LDubya, I completely agree with you. I’ve use both their bars and their liquid and love it.
I used to use and love the Clean&Clear one but I think my skin changed because it started breaking me out a couple years ago. Now I use Clinique Moisturizing Gel or Coola w/ SPF 15.
@LDubya & @court I do use Cetaphil face wash and love it–just started using it in the past couple of years–it’s great
You had me at moisturizer….I am a little obsessed. I am a HUGE believer in Cetaphil face wash for oily skin. I think it’s better than any other brand. I was using kiehl’s moisturizer, but needed to go easier on my wallet, so now I use Neutrogena: one for night and one for day. (the ones with antioxidants) I also use their alpha hydroxy eye cream and their retinol treatment. I know….I have a problem…BUT I don’t have crow’s feet!
@Tina I feel like you and I had a very similar experience. I needed to go easy on my wallet and went Neutrogena and then found the Aveeno one and then and then and then hahaha
I have fair/reddish skin, so I mix L’Oreal Collagen with Clarins Self-Tanning Milk (1:1) on my face. On my body I use Neutrogena firming mixed with Jergens self-tanning/firming cream. My skin feels great and the color is very subtle.
@Christine I’m really fair as well and I never remember to mix the tanner in..I’m actually afraid of using tanner on my face. I’m always afraid I’ll look all crazy because I didn’t blend it right or I’ll break out. Do you like the Clarins? I’ve used Jergens for the rest of my bod.
Anybody else doing the moisturizer/tanner thing? What are you using?
