Advantages: Rich and creamy Disadvantages: Can be a little greasy
results and quickly as my hands were suffering somewhat from an unpleasant attack of eczema due to stress at work and I was fed up with the skin peeling and feeling sore and tight (I had been prescribed steroid cream by my doctor but this wasn't having much of an affect, and I wasn't going to fork for another costly, useless prescription)
After spending a good half an hour poring over the vast selection of creams and lotions on offer I finally settled on this effort from Garnier, the words non-stop hydration for 24 hours caught my eye as that was what my hands needed. I guess with such bold claims you should be a little skeptical but I was so desperate I was prepared to put my faith in the little tube and hand over (boom, boom!) the best part of £5 for it.

Advantages: Very moisturising Disadvantages: may be too moisturising for some skin
Boots daycream
I was loitering round the Boots no 7 counter a few weeks ago, and, having bought some of the products, the assistant gave me some samples of the day and night cream. I did like them, so bought the full tubs!
THE PROMISE
Great stuff!! This cream is going to work 24 hours a day? this does then beg the question as to why I should use the night cream, but I won't ask that one.
It has Vitamin B5 and ceramide complex (again they don't tell me what this is), which will leave my skin looking healthy and radiant.
The good news, and the thing I understand is that it is SPF 15 and hypo allergenic, so I can go out in all of this glorious winter sunshine and let the rays do their worst. Actually, I do sort of know that there are still rays in the winter, so it is probably a good idea to have some SPF in there ...
