Hi All -
I'm trying to find a good nighttime moisturizer and wanted your advice / opinions.
Currently I'm using Cetaphil Moisturzing lotion day and night, while I do love it, I'd like to find something richer for night. I tried MAC's Studio Moisture Cream and Prescriptives Comfort Cream, but found both to be greasy. They tend to sit on my skin. My guess is the Caprylic/Capric/Stearic Triglyceride is what made them feel this way? But I'm just guessing (this was the one common ingredient between the two that stood out to me); some of you who are better with ingredients, let me know if I'm right or wrong here. I'd post the ingredients here, but cannot copy and paste off of BP
I'm looking at one of these three:
Recharching Night Moisturizer by Boscia
Water, Glycerin, Dipropylene Glycol, Dimethicone, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Butylene Glycol, Glyceryl Stearate, Phenyl Trimethicone, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, Caprylic/Capric/Myristic/Stearic Triglyceride, Squalane, Cetyl Palmitate, Sorbitan Stearate, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Leaf Extract, Epilobium Angustifolium (Willowherb) Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Seed Extract, Ampelopsis Grossedentata Extract, Phytosterol, Glycogen, Hydrolyzed Yeast^, Sodium Hyaluronate^, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Extract, Paeonia Suffruticosa (Peony) Root Extract, Phytosteryl/Octyldodecyl Lauroyl Glutamate, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Stearic Acid, Polysorbate 60, Sodium Carboxymethyl Dextran, Potassium Carbomer, Citrus Aurantium Amara (Bitter Orange) Flower Extract
Intensive Rebuilding Moisturizer by Prescriptives
TriCream by Osmotics
Purified Water, Lanolin, PEG-20 Methyl Glucose Sesquistearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Ceramide, Glycerine, Petrolatum, Dimethicone, Curcumin, Soybean Sterol, Linoleic Acid, Tocopheryl Acetate, Stearic Acid, Hyaluronic Acid, Carnosine, Carbomer, Tromethamine, Propylene Glycol, Diazolidinyl Urea, Methylparaben, Propylparaben.
The Boscia one is appealing to be b/c seems like it would be soothing. I also like glycerin and squalene in it. The Presciptives one is appealing b/c of the Shea Butter and Petrolatum. And the TriCream b/c Dr. has recommended it.
Have any of you tried the above? Did you like/dislike them? Would you recommend something different, if so, what?
Look forward to hearing from you.
Hope all is well with you!
