Wasted so much money trying many unsuitable products during the peri years when skin became much drier, inc Clarins, Liz Earl, Simple, No 7 & many, many more. Then found Clinique's range for very dry skin suited me & have stayed with it ever since. Not cheap but don't wear makeup, except for a little subtle lippy now & then, so don't have that expense & the Clinique goes a long way. I use their Extra Mild Liquid Facial Soap, No 1 clarifying lotion (not the alcohol-free one), a facial sunblock & 3 or 4 different moisturisers, depending on situation. I don't like thick creams that sit on the skin, so save the heavier lotion for overnight & use lighter formulas by day. Late 50s & fair skinned.
