what do you use for face cream?

[momadance]

I haven't been using anything. Sometimes if I think of it, I just put some of my body butter on my face, or massage oil.

Any other suggestions? Maybe a nice light oil I don't know about?

Not very crunchy, but I just use whatever I find on a clearance rack for $2 or less. I only use it after I've scrubbed my face (soap on a washcloth) so a botte or jar lasts over a year. I've heard you can use olive oil or other edible oils like that (almond, etc.)

I use Michelle of GreenTaraMama's Calendula Rose Face Balm. www.greentaramama.com It's awesome. One jar will probably last me two years. I only use it when my skin is dry in winter and maybe once a week in spring/summer/fall. Other than that I don't use it at all.

However I just saw my great-aunt, who will be 90 years old next year, and her skin is phenomenally young-looking. In fact she looks younger than a lot of sixty-five-year-olds I see. She used Oil of Olay faithfully every day her entire life. Makes me think...however, like me, she is Sicilian, and I think it may just be genetics.

I use Aubrey Rosa Mosqueta lotion. It says for hand and body, but I like it for my face too.

I've tried using hemp oil and olive oil alone, but I don't know...it seems alomst a little drying or something, like parts of my face get flaky when I use it alone. It is great for an extra moisturizer under a lotion in the winter, but at least on my skin, I need some sort of lotion too.

I've been using Philosophy, but it's $$ so I'm trying to find something much less expensive. I tried coconut oil and it's ok.
