Having dry skin is no fun. Your skin just feels lifeless and dry without the moisture it needs and this winter has been no joke so that’s when I began a search for a moisturiser for dry skin that 1. wouldn’t make my skin greasy and 2. irritate my skin or make my blemishes worse. It’s actually hard to find a moisturiser for dry skin when there are so many moisturisers for normal to oily skin. Then I had heard about The Body Shop Vitamin E Intense Moisture Cream and knew it was worth trying because I find that The Body Shops skin care doesn’t irritate my skin at all.

When I first started applying it, I noticed that the cream was quite thick so it did make me a little worried that it was going to make my skin greasy. I applied it at night and when I woke up the next morning, my skin was smooth and not greasy so I continued applying it for a few weeks and I now have no flaky dry patches on my face like I had before and skin is always feeling smooth.

As I mentioned in my July Favourites, this does not make your skin greasy unless your skin isn’t dry. As it does state on the tub, it’s for very dry skin. This cream also doesn’t clog my pores or make any of my blemishes worse. You could still apply this under make-up but it is quite thick so you’d have to wait a few minutes for it to really sink into your skin.

Overall, I’m a happy with this purchase and whenever my skin is feel dry, I’ll apply some of this and my skin it back to feeling smooth again.
