The weather is starting to warm up now, so I'm using Equate Complete Beauty Lotion SPF 15. This is the Walmart generic version of Olay Complete Beauty Fluid SPF 15. I lightly apply petroleum jelly in my eye area before going to bed.

Kinerase.
I used to work for a dermatologist in Marina del Rey- we did lots of cosmetic procedures, laser treatments, injectables- you name it. That is where I discovered Kinerase, back in 2002 before they started actually marketing it. It is, in my opinion (and the dermatologist's opinion), the best moisturizer on the market. I don't know about the anti-aging properties, but what it does give is perfectly moisturized, never greasy, plump happy skin. And the best part is that you can just slather it on your entire face- eyelids, undereyes, lips, everywhere. It never stings (I have a big problem with products stinging my eyelids).
When we would do a chemical peel in the office, after they rinsed off the glycolic acid, we handed them a sample-size tube of Kinerase cream to slather on- it is that gentle. I can't say enough good things about it.
Oh- yes, I can say one more thing- now it even comes with SPF, so you don't have to layer sunblock over top of it. (yes- you HAVE TO USE SUNBLOCK- if you want good & good-looking skin, stop getting sun damage! Wear sunblock every day!) I use the spf 15 for every day, and I use the spf 30 if I'm going to be outside (it is a little heavy for everyday, in-the-office sunblock). At night, I use just regular Kinerase cream. The Kinerase eye treatment & lip treatment are pointless- just get a tube of the cream.
And, one last thing-- patients used to always ask me whether to get the cream or the lotion. I never could tell a difference between them, so I always just get cream. It is pricey, but a little goes a long way. The big $120 tube usually lasts me about 6 months, and I am not sparing in my use of it.

in the past, i had tried all kind of moisturizers from high ends like Chanel, YSL, Christian Dior, Clarins, even La mer to average like Shiseido, Lacome, Estee Lauder to drugstore brands like Olay, Pons...you name it because it's so weird how none of the moirturizers work for my face for a long time. OFten they work for a while, and then they just seem to stop working either by not adding enough moisture to my face or add too much moisture, leaving my face so oily. Finally, I've found the one moisturizer that I couldn't live without. it's the only moisturizer that I could be able to use for up to 2 years straight now without any problem yet. It's Kiehl Ultra's Facial moisturizer. I am so glad I found it. It's cheap, simple and works great for my skin. So I think the deal to moisturizers is trial and error until you find the one perfect one. It's not about the price, the brand...it's simply just the perfect match for ur skin, like searchign for soulmate hehe
