Cold CreamRetroMom said:I, like my mother before me, swear by Ponds brand cold cream, but sometimes I can't always find it in stock, another alternative that I like (and is also a good value) is Jergen's.
I purchased expensive department store products for skin care and found none of them were worth the money. In fact one line I tried that cost 100.00 for the 3 items caused my face to blister and swell up overnight and my eyes were tiny little peeps. I took it back and got a refund. My mother whose was in her 70's at the time told me my grandmother used only Ponds cold cream on her face and she had beautiful skin. Sooooo, it has been cold cream for me ever since and it works like a dream. I have had many ladies tell me I have beautiful skin and what do I use. PONDS that it, lucky for me I have a very even skin tone with no splotches or red spots. I'm sure some store brands would work as well since cold cream is made from pretty basic ingredients. I too love Burts Bees products and Nivea as well. I'm going to try some the the BB's cream you ladies have mentioned. I also found while reading fashion mag reviews that suave moisturizing shampoo and conditioner is as good as the top selling expensive brands. (Factory testing of products, low to high end in cost.) I use it and love it. But only the moisturizing as far as I know was recommended. Always looking for ways to save $$ but not sacrifice quality.
