Just noticed I've got dry skin on my face and I'd rather my skin looked a bit healthier on the whole, think winter's taken its toll :o
So what would anyone recommend I buy? Don't want to buy something that isn't very effective.

Advice taken from girls, metrosexuals and manly men who are sensible and realise women like soft skin :p :D
 
Swarfega for the win ;)

Leaves a nice scent too.

Unless you are growing a beard, then I'd go for the mustard treatment.
 
Although the mustard treatment is extremely potent I think it might have its work cut out on a woman :p
 
clinique for men use the clinique soap then scruffing lotion then M-Gel lotion is good its called the clinique for men 3 step skin care plan, its good ive been using it for a year and my skin has never looked so great

and no I dont want to see all the metrosexual replies thanks
 
Vitamin E cream is great.

Body shop do one, but superdrug do a bargain range that is just as good tbh.

I use the loreal dual thingy - has two lotions that come out at once, one red, one white but that's a toning/moisturising one - you probably just need a good moisturiser, so go with vitamin E or good old coco butter :D

Oh i also have the clinique moisturiser the yellow one (can't remember for the life of me what it's called - but they sell one every 6 seconds or something daft like that). If you go for that, go for the gel rather than the lotion - easier to rub in and not as greasy.
 
Simple Hydrating Light Moisturiser 125ml bottles

It's not too rich but its good, got recommended by a girl, she has amazing skin.

Ty both :D I'll have a look when I go shopping this week.
Wanted some recommendations as once before I got some cheap stuff (can't remember the brand) and it was useless :/
Figured I'll try to get into the routine of using it regularly again.
 
I like the St Ives swiss formula stuff. It is really good stuff, easily available, wont break the bank and I'm not allergic to it (and Im allergic to EVERYTHING!)

Ahh I'll consider that too :) My Mum's allergic to almost everything (to the point that I cant' wear musk b/c it makes her sneeze :eek: )so I'm always a bit careful just in case I've picked up some allergies too :o

Vaseline Intensive Care Essential Moisture Lotion

They also do dry hands, aloe vera and dermacare ones
Ooh hands could be useful, my hands are getting a surprising beating at work lately :(

Basically I'm planning on walking into Boots and raiding the place, feel in need of the pampering :o
 
This NIVEA VISAGE is quite good as well, it doesn't have the oily after feel to it but its about £7, it comes in a box so this is not how it looks on the shelf.

Clean & Clear Oil Free Dual Action Moisturiser.

I like it because it isn't too greasy and it leaves your skin feeling quite tingly.
