Hi, I'm looking for a moisturizer to use at night. I have combination skin in the T-zone and some congested pores. I feel that my face is not dry but dehydrated. So I would prefer a gel/cream texture that's hydrating but not greasy. If there's anti aging properties in it, that would be great. Any recommendation ladies? Thanks  |

I really like the new PSF Cellular Night Cream, it is nice and creamy without being greasy. Below are the ingredients and description. You can order samples really cheap there too. www.psfskincare.com
This luxurious night cream combines soothing herbal extracts & anti-aging peptides with the anti-inflammatory and hydrating properties of Thermal Water. Collected from naturally occuring hot springs in Iceland, this water is rich in minerals & micro-nutrients to nourish and repair stressed & reactive skin. EGF (Epidermal Growth Factors) are naturally occuring molecules in our skin that decrease by as much as 50% with age. EGF triggers a natural, accelerated cellular turnover in aging skin without unwanted irritation or dryness. This results in a more youthful appearance & improved overall skin tone. This silky cream absorbs easily, yet leaves skin plump & hydrated for hours, while creating the perfect canvas for makeup.
Key Benefits:
· Superior Hydration
· Irritation-free cellular renewal
· Powerful antioxidants & anti-inflammatory
· Fully bio-available anti-aging actives |

Ive got combination skin which is oily on my t zone and can sometimes get abit dry on my cheeks. I have just started using Decleor Ylang Ylang night balm on my face at night. I pat it onto my t zone area and then gently massage it onto the rest of my face. I havn't had to use a moisturiser afterwards. It smells absolutly heavenly and my face seems to glow straight after i have used it. I have only used it for week so cant really give a full review of the product yet so ill get back to you in a few weeks to see if it has made a difference.

| Remergent Barrier Repair is moisturising, has anti-aging properties and will not cause breakouts. Worth a try. |

Sometimes it's best to experiment a little to see what you like. There are so many different skin types and there isn't one product that I know of that works for everyone all the time. It's so frustrating, but keep trying. You could probably fill my hall closet with all of the products I've tried!  I've been using Principal Secret for about a month now and it seems to work for me. My best friend loves Proactiv. And our other girlfriends just use soap and water. So many products, so little time. Good luck finding something and let us know if you find something you really like. |

Hi Stardustdy,
I am a similar age and skin type to you, and I cannot recommend Decleor's Essential Balm enough. Ok, it isn't lightweight and some might perceive it as greasy when you first apply it, but you use a tiny amount and it all sinks in by the morning as there are no chemical nasties in it.
This is the balm that Decleor recommend if your skin is a bit unpredictable as it is very balancing and soothing. You can use it for anything from 3 nights to 3 weeks of every month, depending on your skin. I haven't been able to stop yet though!
It's really helped my congestion and when I wake up in the morning I have incredibly clear, glowing skin.
I cannot recommend these products enough, once you get over the slightly heavy texture, you'll never look back - honestly!
Have a read of some of the reviews on here, lots of people have had good results with it as well.
Hope that helps!

| I have a similar type of skin and looked high and low. These days I am using the JM transformation cream (as part of my JM routine - OMG, I have a routine now) and like it a lot. It's on the pricey side. |

| Decleor Essential Balm is excellent! A few others to consider: Babor Pure Night Cream Oily and Blemished Skin, Babor Perfect Combination Night Cream, Kate Somerville Nourish Daily Moisture, Thalgo Relaxing Cream, or Ole Henriksen Invigorating Night Gel. |

If you go for the Decleor Essential balm, get a sample first. So many people rave about it but it broke me out...  My skin is sooooo picky. Good luck in your search. |

| Try Guerlain's Super Aqua-Night Recovery Balm. It's suitable for all skin types. It moisturises very well. |

| I saw that caspers mum posted Kate Somerville Daily Nourish face cream...I love this stuff and if you go online with them you can get samples of their products and speak with a rep to help you figure out what is best for you |

| I have to say I have been skipping the night time treatments except round my eyes and my skin looks SO much better for it, much less congested so less work to maintain. |

| I use Murad's Essential C Night Moisture. Depending upon how warm the weather is, sometimes I only use Murad's Night Reform. The C Night Moisture is light and has not caused me any clogging or breakouts -in fact, it has really helped to even out my skin tone. |
