The best for removing eye makeup is Ponds Cold Cream. Be sure you get the cold cream and not the other. For moisturizing I like Neutrogena or L'Oreal oil-free formulas. I have problems with dry hands and I use Gold Bond hand cream with Aloe. I apply it every time I have my hands in water.

Why put something on your skin that you're afraid to eat?
Wow! I have some in the kitchen, never thought to use it for skincare. I'll give it a try, Thanks.

I've always believed that your genes play an important part in how your skin reacts to aging, sun, etc. I use Vaseline Intensive Care for my face and body. I use baby oil for make-up removal.

I am allergic to a lot of products (and the odors of some of them cause real problems). When I was younger I went through Mary Kay, Avon, Alamay and then tried all the extensive stuff. Mom intorduced me to Oil of Olay, but i started having trouble with it when they added the sunscreen. The only one my face seems to tolerate now(though I have not tried coconut oil) is Olay Total Effects without sunscreen (when I can find it). I use Eucerna or Aveno for my hands and body, which is a bit less sensitive.

Vaseline intensive moisturizing lotion; used it one night when I'd run out of the fancy stuff. Works fine.

I use Oil of Olay myself and like it very much. It is no longer pink, but white.

I'm a Mary Kay gal also - think it has really made a difference. A little pricey but goes a long way.

My grandma died 5 years ago at the age of 95, but she only looked 60! No, really, she looked very young. I do what she sis, use Ponds, what is it, $3 for a jar?
