The Best Drugstore Body Moisturizer

by Melissa February 7, 2019

So, you turn to Google to research the best body moisturizer that you can buy at the drugstore (or Amazon ; ) ) and all you can find are these:

Top 10 Drugstore Moisturizers…

17 Best Lotions for Dry Skin…

13 Best Drug Store Body Lotions for 2019…

and so on, and so on.

STOP! All I Want to Know is… What Is THE Best Drug Store Body Moisturizer? Just ONE! PLEASE!

Well, I would be happy to squeeze in there between Allure, Today, and Elle, and give you the only body moisturizer you need, whether you still have that young, beautiful, firm skin, or you have skin that needs a little more help to stay moist and firm. If you are looking for face moisturizers, click here.

Ready?

Set…

Moisturize!

It’s made by Nivea, and I can promise you that your legs have never felt this smooth after applying globs of drug store moisturizer, rubbing it in, and looking at the same skin you saw before, with the exception of a little less ashiness! Is that a word???

I buy mine on Amazon (because I’m lazy, and it’s cheaper), but most drug stores will have it. You may have to shop around a little, but I promise it’s worth it. If you have Amazon prime, that’s your best bet.

The Winner Is… Nivea Skin Firming Hydration Body Lotion

I have been using this lotion for over 2 years now (that’s a screenshot of my initial purchase in 2016). I will admit that I used to be really lazy about applying lotion in the winter, and I know how important it is to use it during that time of year, but I could not stand the thought of getting out of the shower and freezing to death long enough to apply the lotion.

Now, I can’t wait to put it on. It almost gives your legs a “glow”. Like a real glow, not just a fake one!

BONUS MOISTURIZER!

Now, I know I said that this post would give you the ONE drug store moisturizer that would give you the best results, and I feel I accomplished that, right?

But, I do want to add that I also use this concentrated serum (also by Nivea) on the top of my legs and my arms (because I’m getting old), and I can tell you that it has made a huge difference in the firmness of my skin. I use it every night before bed (because it does take a little longer to soak into your skin), but you could absolutely apply it in the morning if you plan on wearing shorts or tanks. DO NOT, and I repeat DO NOT try to put skinny jeans on after using the concentrated serum. Don’t ask me how I know, just take my word for it, OK?

I highly recommend adding this to your daily body moisturizing routine. You won’t regret it!

Aging Skin Beauty Best Drug Store Products Moisturizers Neutrogena Reviews Skin Care

The Absolute Best Drug Store Anti Aging Moisturizer

by Melissa February 8, 2019

I have written about skin care products for, well, years. The first post I ever wrote on this blog was my skin care routine, as it was way back in 2014 (and for all of the years before). Sure, read it, maybe you’ll get a good laugh, or maybe you’ll realize that my writing skills have not improved in 5 years.

Anyway… In that post I spoke of the moisturizer I had been using for years by Olay. Sorry Olay, there’s another product line, and it is bringing home the bacon! If you are a bit younger, and are not yet worrying about finding the best products for aging skin, you should still be moisturizing, and Olay Regenerist is a great product if you fit that category. It’s a great product all around, but it’s not our topic today.

The Following are Not Drug Store Moisturizers, but Deserve a Mention

I have written reviews on so many moisturizers that it’s hard to remember. I wrote about Origins Ginzing energy boosting gel moisturizer, which by the way, I no longer use. Not because there is anything wrong with it, it’s just that I have found other anti-aging moisturizers over the years that have served me with better results.

I have also written many posts on Cindy Crawford’s Meaningful Beauty skin care system. You would have to read the posts to get my full view on this line because it’s not something that is summed up with a yay or nay, know what I mean?

Out with the old, and in with the new!

This Drug Store Anti Aging Moisturizer Was Actually Recommended to Me By My Daughter’s Dermatologist

If you have been to a dermatologist lately, you know that they are all about Neutrogena products! Not only are they #1 for my favorite face moisturizer, they also won in the category of the best drug store face wash, at least by my vote!

Before we dive in, let me remind you that I quit smoking last September, and this was the first step to my skin care cleanup if you will. Since quitting, I have noticed my face looks smoother, and I have less redness around my nose, which has been a constant for, well, it’s just been constant. I don’t know how else to explain it. With that said, my now daily urge to light up is not however responsible for firming and reducing the fine lines on my forehead and around my eyes.

I don’t believe that there is any product on the market, at least over the counter, that is going to completely remove all signs of aging. If you’re out there, please call me at 1-800-HERESMYCARDNUMBER!

What I do believe, and in fact know, is that using products with specific ingredients can and do help your skin when used daily or as directed.

What Is The Best Anti-Aging Moisturizer That You Can Find In Stores?

The product I am getting ready to unveil has been a part of my skin care routine for about 6 months now, and I use it every day like clockwork. Sometimes twice a day if I’ve not had more than a glass of wine in the evening and actually feel like washing and moisturizing my face. Hey, what can I say? I could say I’m perfect like all of the other beauty bloggers out there, but you and I both know I’d be lying!

It has definitely reduced the look of the lines on my forehead. In fact, that is what inspired me to write this post. I looked in the mirror the other day, and I was like,

who in the hell stole my forehead wrinkles?

I’m not exaggerating. They are literally almost gone. If I’m being completely transparent, they were not deep wrinkles to start, but they were there and it bothered me.

The second thing that I can report is that the moisturizer has helped with the sleep lines that I get on the side of my nose from sleeping on my face every night. For these two reasons, it’s a win.

So, what’s it called?

The Best Drug Store Moisturizer For Aging Skin Is…

Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair. You can get it on Amazon for the best price compared to drug store prices, or, if you have a Sam’s Club membership, you can get a pack of two for an even better deal.

If you really want to step up your game, you can use other Neutrogena products along with the Rapid Wrinkle Repair moisturizer.

I will be writing a post soon about my “new” skin care routine. I mean, I guess it’s time to update my readers since I haven’t done so in nearly 5 years! For all you know, I’m still using Noxema!

Lancôme Génifique Yeux Light-Pearl

by Melissa December 3, 2014

It is no secret that skin is very sensitive. The skin of a woman is even more sensitive, and Lancome’s Genifique Yeux is prepared to prove it. Skin, for women is the testimony of her outer beauty, to her feminine self, to her youth. The beauty of a woman lies in the beauty of her skin.

It ages, and with that, the skin loses its brightness, tautness and begins to wrinkle. Dark circles and sagging skin under the eyes, spots and spores are other undesirable effects of skin aging.

Wrinkles and dark circles are a natural aspect of aging. They are common to all, men and women. Wrinkles and sagging skin appear when the protein which binds them to the muscles is deteriorated. These proteins, namely collagen and elasticin, are responsible for the supple and taut skin during our young age. As the skin ages, the proteins die and the skin loses its tautness and sags. This is even more prominent under the eyes. As they say, the eyes of a woman speak millions. For you and for millions of women around the world, sagging skin under the eye is one of the most common skin related problem and hundreds of products have hit the market promising younger skin.
