There’s lots of information about the product and ingredients here! With none of that nasty formaldehyde that I’m allergic to, I’d like to try this, although it’s for normal to oily skin. I have dry skin, so I’ll have to look for something else!

Now this is more like it! For dry and mature skin … er, forget about the mature bit. This cream contains no man-made chemicals, but does contain lots of goodies like shea butter. Shea butter has been found to help dry, sensitive skin and eczema, so I’d definitely like to give this a go.

If you like the fragrance of roses, here’s another cream for dry and sensitive skin. This can also be used on your decollete (upper chest), an area that is often neglected when it comes to moisturizing, and yet which can age more quickly if not looked after.

I love the name of this lotion! It seems to be more of a body than facial moisturizer, but the body needs care as well. In fact, it might well work as a facial lotion as well, which would be good when traveling.
Organic Sunscreen

Now here’s a find for my sensitive skin! I’m not one for sunbathing, but there are occasions when I need some sunscreen. This also offers moisturizing benefits as well. Note, however, that no SPF can be given (though I wouldn’t advise too much sun anyway).
Neroli Extraordinary Day Cream
/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/06/8-marvellous-moisturisers/neroli-extraordinary-day-cream_marvellous-moisturisers_500x375.jpg)

Is it extraordinary? I don’t know, but this cream certainly sounds lovely, with shea butter, rosehip oil and the regenerating properties of neroli. If you like essential oils, this should be a lovely smelling cream.
Are you a fan of handmade products like me, or do you faithfully stick to well-known brands? What cream best moisturizes your skin?
