Okay, I just wanted to share a great moisterizer that I've used for about 14 years now, and its many uses that I've discovered...
My mother has always used St. Ives Collagen Elastin Moisterizer (regular in the pink tub), and I started using it at about the age of 12, and haven't stopped using it since!! It's AWESOME!! Not only is it a great facial moisterizer, but you only have to use the TINYEST amount, and it's the best all-over lotion I've ever used!
If I ever have rough elbows, I just rub some of that on, and within a couple hours, my skin's soft as a baby's bum!! Even the next day, if I forget to use it again, I'm still as soft! I've been using it on my feet because having hardwood floors seems to make them much dryer (has anyone had that experience?), and it's made such a difference!!
I also put a dab of it on the back of my hand and twirl q-tips in it (so the q-tip has a thin layer of it on there), and it works as a great make-up remover (for the outside of eyelids...mascara, eye shadow, etc). It's gentle, and I've never had the problem of it irritating my eyes (and my eyes are SENSITIVE!).
Anyway, I just wanted to share a wonderful product, in hopes that others would find use in it, too. The small tub I have of it now (it's the normal size) has lasted me a year now, and it's only half-gone. That's how little of it I have to use for anything!!
Enjoy!
