No.7 👍🏼
In case you’re feeling patriotic, they’re based in the UK. It won’t break the bank. I don’t know your skincare preference but I prefer the No7 Future Renew™ Damage Reversal Night Cream and the No7 Derm Solutions Daily Lightweight Moisturizer during the day. Most of the gentlemen I know prefer the lightweight moisturizer.
Maybe you can get a sample and try it out first to see how you like it.
Aveda is also very good and a little pricier. If it matters to you, they are owned by Estée Lauder (along with Clinique, MAC, Origins, etc.). Good Luck!
I no longer use greasy moisturizers at all and I have very sensitive dry skin that needs help.
Hyaluronic acid is dirt cheap and works by attracting moisture from the air, rather than a coating of something greasy.
I mix a half gram into 300ml distilled water, some lavender oil just for a pleasant scent, and a few drops of a leucacidal preservative made for cosmetics (i make big batches cuz lazy and it prevents bacterial growth). A half kilo bag is maybe $25 USD so I have a lifetime supply.
Even in our insanely dry climate I no longer get itchy inflamed skin in the winter. And it’s super easy to just spray it all over after a shower.
I like the DIY idea thanks!
