Do you use a facial moisturizing product that you would recommend?

My skin has gotten dry with age. I’d like to use a good moisturizer, but it’s pretty hard to tell from ads or displays which would be the best choice. Any recommendations?
Thank you.

I use Perricone MD Face Finishing & Firming Moisturizer. It’s a bit pricey but a little goes a long way and it’s totally worth it. It’s the only moisturizer I’ve used that I only need to apply once during the day.
I was out in 20 degree weather today and my skin still feels soft.
I used Clinique products for many years. Eventually, after reading the ingredients, changed to cheaper/better products. I love Pond’s moisturizing cream.
I use Paula’s Choice products. I like that years ago when the beauty product industry was mostly about lying to their customers, Paula did/had research done and told the truth about products, where they come from, what works, what doesn’t. I also like that they have many products that are individualized for your type of skin, and you can look up issues you want to address. They also don’t test on animals. I do have issues about the frequency of their emails – several daily – but I can deal with that.

As weird and common and old fashioned as it is, I still use Oil of Olay, and I am still very satisfied with it.
I like Neutrogena products. I use a moisturizer with SPF and “hydro boost” twice a week which helps slough off dead skin cells.
Thanks, all. Sounds like a lot of good choices where I wouldn’t go wrong.
@JLoon, is the Burt’s Bees product ok for facial application?
Mad Hippie
This stuff is excellent. It’s also vegan and cruelty free.
Juice Beauty
This whole line is excellent but a little pricey. It is also vegan and cruelty free.
Please, please, please consider not using a product tested on animals. It’s unnecessary cruelty for the sake of vanity. Making it vegan in a great extra step. :)
@tinyfaery, thank you. Which product do you prefer for facial moisturizer? For some obscure biographical reason, Mad Hippie appeals to me. I can’t tell from the descriptions which that would be.
I’m perfectly happy to avoid animal-tested products. Thanks for pointing that out.
I think I actually prefer the Mad Hippie moisturizer, but if you’re looking for a serum the one from that line of Juice Beauty is excellent.
