Need Suggestions for Daily Anti-aging Face Cleanser/ Moisturizer for Dry Skin

Hey all, I have fair, dry skin. I've been using Clinique since high school but have been feeling for some time that it's not what my skin needs anymore. I need something that will clean without drying out my skin and moisturize without feeling heavy and I want to be pro-active about aging, too. I tried Bobbi brown cream cleanser and lotions at someone's suggestion, and they were okay, but not great. I'm nearly out of those. A friend suggested Philosophy. Does anyone use that brand? What do you think? Any other suggestions?

What can I do next?

Hi S.. I have used Aloette and Mary Kay over the years and they were ok. I'm using Arbonne right now and I believe it's much better than other brands. You have to order from a consultant, you can't buy it in the stores.

I work in the skincare industry and personally I like the Caudalie line. It's a French skincare line that is safe for all skin types, including sensitive. They have different products to fit different skin types and concerns. It is carried at Sephora. Take good care of your skin, when you're older you'll be grateful!

I am a consultant with mary kay, and we have great products that will clean without over drying, moisturize without being heavy and most importantly, they are anti-aging. The products are satisfaction guaranteed, so if you don't love them you give them back. I offer free consultations as well. If you would like to try the products, you can contact me @ ###-###-#### or www.marykay.com/abernardi

Hi S.,
I started using Mary Kay products about a year ago and I love them. I use Timewise cleanser and moisturizer and I also use their makeup. I like that I get to try the products before purchasing and that they have a money-back guarantee. Find a good Mary Kay consultant and she will take care of you!

Hi S.,
I recently bought Aveeno Positively Radiant face cleaner and I really like it. I'm going to buy the moisturizer, too. One other thing I cannot live without is Origins Perfect World moisturizer--it's addictive! Great for in the a.m. before you put on make-up.

I am a Mary Kay consultant. I'm not sure where you live but I could come to your house and let you try my products. We have many different products that we can customize a skin care program just for your skin. If you don't live close enough for me to come to you I can also recommend someone from your area.

My best friend took Philosophy Hope in a Jar SPF 20 to Israel for the summer last year and said it was perfect for her daily suncare, antiaging, and moisture needs (and if it's good enough in the desert, it's good enough in PA). It's not cheap, though (you can get it at Sephora).

A little less money will get you either of the Olay biggies: Total effects or Regenerist. Regenerist is more expensive. Either way, they have sunscreen and anti-aging. I am a big fan of the large drugstore companies' products (Olay, Aveeno, Dove) because they have huge research and development budgets, so if they say it does something, it will. I use the Regenerist serum under SPF every day (I'm oily, though, so my moisturizer wouldn't be the one for you) The Olay Age Defying cleanser is fantastic and cheap ($6 or so), I use it in the winter when I get dry. It is creamy and moisturizing but not greasy and has gentle scrub particles and beta-hydroxy for anti-aging. And of course, there's Cetaphil. Dermatologists swear by it for a reason; it's super mild and moisturizing.

I'm really in to skincare--feel free to ask more questions.
