I am on a MISSION to find the best moisturizer for my skin - HELP LOVELY LADIES!
So here's the low-down:
My face is dry for the most part, I have started breaking out in my adult years (I'm 24).
I've tried multiple products and just bought Clinique DDML over the weekend and so far its been okay, less break-outs, but still seeing some break-out action(plus i'm freaked out about some of the bad reviews).
I would LOVE to stick to an all-natural moisturizer, but...not happening right now.
I'd prefer to stay away from drugstore moisturizers...also want to keep the price under $40.
What works for you ladies?
Thanks! <3 xoxo

You might want to check out the review I left on Korres' Thyme Honey moisturizer. It's $35 for a good sized jar, and it's pretty natural. I've noticed in the last month of use, I've had fewer breakouts than when I used the Clinique DDML, and some red patches around my nose have definitely calmed down/faded. Plus it takes care of my dry skin fantastically!

I have the worst dry skin and eczema (no acne though) and Clinique Comfort on Call is my holy grail. Its the only moisturizer that will clear up my dry flaking skin and believe me I've tried everything. Not sure how it would work on breakout though. Its worth checking out.
Hope this helps! http://www.pinkbeautybliss.com

I recommend Repechage. I use this on myself and on clients and have never had any adverse reactions to their products. For you I would recommend on either of two of their lines depending on how bad your breakouts are. If you just breakout here and there I recommend Hydra Refine and if you feel you have acneic skin then stick to the Hydra Medic line. Hope this helps!

Aveeno Daily Moisturizer is my go to. I have dry/sensitive skin that breaks out with the wrong products. Aveeno just works for me.

I actually tried many products since I started grow acne all over my face. I found out the best product I hv used is so cheap and so good---bodyshop tea tree oil night cream and the tee tree oil. I hv to say the price is reasonable and products are natural !! If u hv sensitive skin then u really should try their product. The aloe cleansing foam is so good as well and it is so gentle !!!

hi i work for clinique and i would stick to oil free products.DDML contains oil and should be for v.dry to dry skin with no breakout. Try clinique Moisture Surge extended thirst relief gel cream. its light and soothing and hydrates for 12hours x

I have extremely dry skin in some places, and really oily in others. I love Clinique dramatically different, definitely worth the money and I saw results really quickly.

I've been struggling with my skin for YEARS. I've tried everything included all natural products. Recently I decided to go as simple as possible and switched to Spectro products (I may be wrong but I think they can only be purchased in Canada. Check online maybe?) anyways it has totally changed my skin in conjunction with my clarisonic.

You should use coconut oil.

OMGNOOOOOOO. Don't use coconut oil if you're acne prone. I third the recommendation for CeraVe. I've been using it for over 2 years based on my derm's advice and have seen a dramatic difference.
