I have sensitive skin and have a job finding a cream that suits me.
I wondered if you had any ideas of what I could use?

I use the same one at night as I do in the morning, a boots own brand and it's inexpensive.

I would suggest one that is fragrance free Wendy.

thank you Maureen.
I do get fragrance free. I just popped to Aldis and bought their night cream so I will let you know how I get on with it.
The problem is because of the cold weather and having central heating on.

I usually use night cream & my skin is very sensitive and dry. I like Body shop Aloe Vera range for sensitive skin, Avon also do one for sensitive & it is only £5 when on offer. I tried the Aldi one & it was rather heavy.

Thank you I will look at the Avon one.

Hope you get on alright with the Avon one, I can't use any Avon products they bring me out in a rash.

I have used Astral all my life, its cheap and good.
So does Johanna Lumley

The good thing about Avon is that you can send it back if it doesn't suit.
At Body shop, you can try before you buy, they will give you free sample pots to try at home, Lush also do the same but they are dearer. Their Celestial for sensitive cream is wonderful but I think it is £ 12 or 13

thank you, I never knew you could send things back with Avon.
I have ordered it, and I shall also try the astral.
I remember using it years ago.

I have sensitive dry skin. I use coconut oil. You can buy it in a tub from Superdrug for £2.99 it is very economical and you don't need to lather your face with it. I use it on my hair too.
