I’m a man in my 40s. I’ve tried fancy creams in the past and they were nice but I always reverted to using Nivea soft because I could buy big pots that were cheap and last a long time. I’ve been told that cream is nice for the body but not recommended for the face. What would you recommend for a daily use, that’s not too expensive? I’m based in the UK.
I was told the Nivea face cream doesn’t let the skin breathe which makes things worse. And my skin is not the best so looking at alternatives
Gotcha. My aesthetician (who I must explain helped me save my adult-acne-ridden skin) suggested Neutragena Sensitive Skin Moisturizer with a separate physical sunscreen on top. Reddit swears by Cerave, but she says their method just strips your skin’s natural moisture barrier and then attempts to add it back, so she was not a fan. I’m not sure if Neutragena is available in the UK, but when I was there a few years ago and my luggage was delayed, I bought something that had “simple” or “nature” (or both?) in the title and was a white and light green label, and it seemed comparable.
Thank you that’s helpful I’ll look into it!
