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! :D
 
Hmm.. St.Ive sstuff is good. I hope they have the same thing in the UK as my "natural made" moisturiser has gone off now . Thats the problem with all those natural ingredients!

(Its made from chickpeas!)
 
Ooh wow...what a neat idea...made from Chickpeas. I hope you can find some St. Ives stuff in your area! It's so wonderful...I was using it on my feet today, and thought I would share the wealth! :)

P.S. I found a UK site that has it on there...it looks like an Ebay site, but it's something! :)

Looks like it may be in the UK after all! Let me know if you find it! :)
 
I know we have St. Ives stuff because i've seen it adverstised on TV. St.Ives i in Cornwall anyway so it better be for sale in UK if its is in the US!

I'll get me mam to buy some. :D

Just adding to this little topic, i also really like Body Shop Vitamin E moisturiser in the pink tub. Its really smooth and great for very dry skin, but it is a little oily (which is fine for me seeing as my skin is so dry..)
 
Oh yeah, hehe, I forgot that St. Ives was there...what a dork. Yeah, it very well BETTER be for sale in the UK, then, eh? If not, somebody's got some 'splainin' to do!! (Think "I Love Lucy"...lol)

Love the stuff, though...:)
