BEST GEL/CREAM MOISTURISERS FOR ALL BUDGETS

[@patwagner9308]

I have recently been using Lacura day & night cream..I get it in Aldi for just $3.99 a jar. It's lovely! And Aveeno Calm & Restore Oat Gel Moisturizer is very nice ! I use that as well.

[@cathkirkers]

Nadine.....please please never stop making videos.....you are amazing 👏 ❤

[@lol365]

Paula’s Choice Invisible Finish Moisture Gel is an oldie but a goodie - weightless, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid and well priced.

[@janemorais4169]

Please talk about retinol. Your last video is from three years ago!! please do an updated one about your favorite retinol and face products!! thanks. love your channel

[@ayekaernie]

The Korean brand, 'I'm from' has a mugwort cream that is a gel-like texture and it's really great! I use it as my summer time moisturizer. It is under $30.

[@thehonestbeautyreview]

The Summer Fridays Cloud Dew REALLY surprised me. Great hydration and kudos to them for leaving out the fragrance!

[@ummamama116]

Agree! It’s my new fave!!!

[@heathernelson4886]

These all sound so good. I'm on a consumer testing panel for a gel-cream moisturiser that feels very similar to how you describe these. It's absolutely lovely, think it's due in April.

[@rachelk4828]

2 more budget friendly options are: Neutrogena hydro boost gel cream 💦 No7 hydro luminous water surge gel.💦 I love clinique moisture surge intense its amazing for sensitive skin too

[@rachelbuckenham4864]

That Neutrogena product is fantastic. Wouldn’t be without it now.

[@lorianne4936]

Love the Neutrogena line ❤️

[@rachelk4828]

its lovely i use the body moisturiser as well 👌

[@EssyaMTR]

I had to pause and say thank you for the quick intro haha, straight to the subject. How refreshing!!

[@catnip4587]

I hate it when the influencer spends the first half of the video apologizing for lighting etc or advertising a product which is sponsoring him or her

[@adelelusher5442]

I love moisture surge, I found it when I was on isotretinoin and it was better than any thick occlusive moisturiser to stop my peeling. Tried loads of others but always come back to it. Worth every penny in my opinion x

[@PaleOpal21]

Tip: Hylaronic acid pulls water from the skin so apply on damp skin or otherwise it's not really effective.

[@kimberleybarrett6485]

Or from the air, if you live in a humid climate

[@victorialadybug1]

Good to remember.

[@janettebolin2991]

I did not know that! Thank you!

[@alexlippa345]

The face theory gel cream is also fab! I finished the whole tube and it really worked with my normal to combi skin with a few break outs. Totally unfragranced and under £20 so definitely worth checking out.

[@rbaker368]

Sunday Riley Tidal is also fab in this category. Pricey. But I always get compliments when I wear it as my day cream :)

[@alinavav9340]

Agree. One of the best once

[@Anna-vz5tn]

This is one of my faves too. Waiting to stop nursing so I can use it again!

[@deirdreabc]

I like the simple sleeping mask moisturiser. It's not advertised as a gel cream but I'm sure it is!

[@ShanGooFan]

Aveeno has a new moisturizer, Calm & Restore Oat Gel Moisturizer, that fits in this category as well and is amazing. It’s also under $20.

[@KatWrangler]

You like it? I haven't tried this one yet. I will add it to my list to try.

[@patwagner9308]

[@leahcg123]

The timing of this is perfect for me, I love Clinique Moisture Surge and am almost finished my pot, I'm looking for something comparable but at a slightly lower price point ❤

[@catalinanazal1595]

I love that elf cream during the spring/summer as night cream. As day cream I am obsessed with Shiseido Waso Clear Maga-Hydrating cream

[@kamhowe9315]

By Terry product sounds fab! Love the idea of an all in one as I find myself using x4 products in the morning - vit c, hyaluronic acid, face cream and spf in the morning and it get a bit much sometimes.. just wish it was CF or vegan and that would have done it for me :-) thx for such a great, informative video nadine!

[@kittima3218]

I purchased the ELF cream yesterday per your suggestion! Going to use it tonight 🐈💙🌻🐦🐾🌱 YOU are my Sunday 🌞

[@KatWrangler]

I like it.

[@msheartface5288]

I bought my Summer Friday’s from Cult Beauty as they always have discount codes, birthday codes etc and use DHL to efficiently deliver... 🙂💯💜

[@mariannetuite7411]

I’ve just switched from Elemis’ Pro Collagen Marine Cream to the Clinique 100 hour Moisture Surge as the former wasn’t working quite as well as it previously had for me. So far my just my-over-40-but-still-temperamental skin is loving it

[@jordanxfile]

It's not a gel cream, but I love the Bayer Bepanthol Sensidaily body cream; I use it on my face, too. It has dexpanthenol, as with all Bepanthol products, also ceramides, Niacinamide, squalane. Obviously fragrance-free and for 150 ml, the price is really good.

[@angelascott4073]

Nadine can you please tell us if the Estée Lauder bigger share of The Ordinary will effect the products and price

[@lorainemcgillivray77]

Hi Nadine i wish I could lighten up to a gel cream, but I'll lighten up from a rich body cream to a face cream for the warmer months - I have severely dry skin. Even in the height of Summer I need a cream, although it is lighter weight than my Winter body cream for the face. If I do use a gel or gel cream I have to layer a cream on top, so I just use serums under the cream (also essence, oil etc). Best wishes.

[@pheart2381]

I'm allergic to hyluronic acid. I hate the way companies seem to be competing to see who can cram the most into their ranges. I am stepping back from actives actually,its all getting a bit over the top. Not knocking people who enjoy them though.

[@juliedubberley1192]

Haruharu Wonder green tea and honey moisture gel is my current favourite and reasonably priced.

[@KW-ro5ow]

Hyaluronic acid doesn't do it for me but I've recently tried ceramides and bingo. Dr Jart ceramidin is my hyaluronic. Never would've tried it without Ms B's videos. Lot happier now.

[@izziwizziranaway]

Dr Jart had an AMAZING gelcream Ceramidin product but they stopped making it. I could have cried as it was perfection.

[@KW-ro5ow]

@@izziwizziranaway Doesn't it just drive you mad when that happens? It can take ages to find the product that works and then they pull the rug from underneath you. Boots, up until a few weeks ago, had more products than anyone else with 20% off. A lot sold out now though :(

[@maxinereid3091]

Hey Nadine, what was the dr jart eye cream you mentioned? I’ve bad dark circles so always up for new products 👍

[@kalinaka1135]

Love the Clinique MSIntense for years! Best gel-cream ever! it's a pity that they changed the formula. The previous version was better. Fortunately, the new one is also good, I will not change it for anything else. I will mention that my skin is very dry.

[@beckyc.5743]

I’ve been loving the Neutrogena Hydro Boost body lotion but use it on my face. It has a little more oomph hydrating my skin than the facial Hydro Boost. Edit: question about the By Terry product: aren’t low weight hylauronic acid formulations inflammatory for the skin?

[@marnidillon8659]

I haven’t used the ELF moisturizer but I have been using the companion night cream. It is very nice and such a good price. It doesn’t say fragrance free but it doesn’t have an obvious one to me.

[@EUPHORIANIMABBA]

Dear Nadine, Please please please could you post/upload your latest ' Best budget buys for under £25' video from Instagram onto KZbin? Myself and a lot of other people don't have access to or want to own an Instagram account. Please could you also post your other videos from Instagram up onto KZbin too?

I hate sticking my finger into cream jars. Spatula would be ok, airless pump like The Inkey List uses is my favorite.

[@pheart2381]

I think a spatula has as many germs on as fingers have. I dont have time to wash a spatula with soap twice a day. I worry about the plastic involved in airless pumps though.

[@Nubianette]

Perfect timing! I have oily skin, but I’m older so I want my moisturizers to do a bit of work. I’ve been looking for something moisturizing, relatively “simple”, and unscented. The by Terry is what I’ll try next. Plus, I need more of the liquid lip balm. Thank you!

[@emmadax]

I used to adore the body shop vitamin c moisturiser. It was a lightweight gel. This video reminded me of it so I checked it out... sadly fragrance is higher on the list than I’d like (I remember it was fragranced) but it uses ascorbic acid as the form of vit c, I’m not sure how stable it is in the formula as it’s an older product so unsure if that knowledge was out there when that product was formed... if it’s stable that’s great! I’m tempted to repurchase just for old times sake and to reminisce 😂 does anyone else do that?

[@BeautyHasBeenX]

Hey Nadine 🤗🤗🤗 great video lovely lady 💞💞💞

[@Paws4Corgicopia]

Hi Nadine, I cant figure out how to DM to ask this, so I'm putting it here (love the Terry cream, btw). I was wondering if you plan to review the Opte skin device that uses 3-D printing technology to deposit picoliter amounts of color and skin-treatinng serum onto discolorations on the face? It looks very natural and lovely but is pricey (~$600 for the device and $90/cartridge). Is it worth it? Thank you!

[@Perizada]

Hi Nadine, I've just turned fifty and still have oily, blackhead prone skin. I am tempted by the blackhead removers that are around such as the Femvy Blackhead Remover. What do you think of these tools? Are they effective? Should I get one?

[@drc4168]

Hi!! I am 41. What did the job for me was to go to a reputable beauty salon, get a facial which includes extractions. Once your nose is free of blackheads, you can maintain yourself by using a 2% salicylic acid cleanser once a day in the shower, but as a leave-on mask on the area where you get blackheads. Use a gentle cleanser elsewhere. I use Inkey List Salicylic Cleanser. My blackheads which I'd had for decades are kept in check. I use a light moisturiser like Aveeno Oat Gel Cream from Calm and Restore.

[@leannebharris]

Hi Such great channel...I am using Dermalogica ultra calming line but still feel feel skin is slightly Tight after using would you recommend the ELF moisturiser as my skin still feels it needs more moisture and its fragrance free xxxx

I am just not understanding this hyaluronic fad. It dries my skin and lips out, leaving me with flakey skin and chapped lips. (Then I'm told it's MY fault for using the wrong kind of HA. I've tried several. This "different molecular weights" jazz is ridiculous.) If you "lock it in" with an occlusive layer on top, it is forced to get moisture from your skin, & not the atmosphere around you. Bottom line? Dump this stuff in the trash. If it's humid outside, you don't need it. If it's dry, HA steals moisture from your skin to fill up its greedy little molecules. Who on earth ever decided it was a good idea to add this to skincare products???
