Title: Moisturiser
Post by: SamK on April 09, 2020, 08:40:39 AM

My skin has changed so much while I've been going through the peri menopause, I seem to have aged so much in the last year! As well as put on loads of weight around my middle.  Consequently i have most definitely lost my mojo.  :-\  Can anyone recommend a good moisturiser in the uk that's not massively expensive? I'd prefer one that's as ?clean? as possible, as in chemical free. I have a limited budget so would rather go on a recommendation.  :sunny:

I use Aldi moisturisers, cheap as chips and are equal if not better than really expensive brands. I have quite sensitive skin and they don't irritate x

Hi! as ostetrogen levels drop so the body may become dry: skin, scalp, deep in the ears, nostrils, vagina.

I use a mix of 'Nivea', 'vaseline' hand cream, Savlon - what ever is to hand.  'sudafed' is another cream .........
