Moisturizer Rec?

raven...@gatewest.net
Hi Everyone,
It's winter again, and up here in Manitoba, Canada, we get a
particularly dry cold. Add to that our heated indoor environment, and
we end up with some really dry skin.
I've been using (and loving!) L'Oreal Refinish, so I can't use my old
AHA/BHA favourite facial moisturizers.
Can you please recommend a good drugstore brand?
TIA,
Nenette

Not drugstore, but Weleda Skin Food lotion is very rich. I use it on my
face w/o any problems. You can find it in health food stores, sephora.com,
and drugstore.com.

* Olay Complete Plus Ultra–rich Night Firming Creme used as day creme. It
works and is inexpensive.
* Biotherm Aquasource for Very Dry Skin was an absolute life saver for me
a couple years ago.
* Burt's Bees Marshmallow creme
* Burt's Bees Evening Primrose creme, *very* emollient

Thanks to all for the recommendations! I actually found a bottle of
Aveda Hydrating Lotion in my powder room cabinet and will finish that
before trying something new.
I went a little crazy with Xmas shopping yesterday (almost done,
yay!), and I'm feeling a little guilty about spending more money when
I have moisturizer already. How un–AF of me! :–)
Thanks again,
Nenette
