Do you moisturize?

Certainly do, nothing wrong in looking after yourself!

(and I don't take it up the chuff either!)
 
I don't moisturize, but I do moisturise.

Hands only though (moisturising my face tends to block my pores and give me spots, plus I have no real need to!)
 
In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial masque which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion. There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman. Some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me. Only an entity. Something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours, and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable, I simply am not there.

Ah, youtube doesn't like it.

Patrick says yes, moisturise and be happy.

I do because I have to. The skin above my upper lip and around the nose flakes like crazy if I don't moisturise it. I should probably see the quack about it actually.

Allow me to take a completely wild stab in the dark guess here...

Do you think it may be at all possible that she recommended you 'Moisturize' and then showed you some products she just happened to have lying around there at ridiculously marked up prices?

I know it sounds ridiculous and crazy, but you never know...
 
Yes, every day. My skin gets very dry but is also ridiculously sensitive. I get spots from the smallest things on my face. E45 cream was working fine for me up until about a year ago when I started coming out in rashes from it. I switched to jojoba oil - just that on its own and nothing else. A couple of drops is enough for my whole face and I find it much better than anything else I've used. No spots at all and it's much better value than high street stuff. I bought a 250ml bottle on ebay for a few pounds and in the last year I've used about 15ml.
