    What face wash/scrub do you guys use?

    I think i need a moisturising one, thought i'd ask here before spending £££s on trying all out there.

    I've lasted this long without using one but my skin comes out really dry after a shower down here, might be the water

    I have the dry skin problem too. Really gets to me
    Sanex do a decent range of products, but depending on how bad it is, thought about poping to the doc's?
    I did, and there is a bunch of stuff you cant buy over the counter that he can give you.

    Nivea for Men, daily I use their soap free moisturising face wash, then once or twice a week I use their Invigorating Face stuff (exfoliates or something)

    Then have a shave with my Nivea Phillishave electric razor, followed by Extra Soothing Balm (the sensitive one). After that whatever aftershave I want to wear

    I quite like the Boss Skin stuff but only if the missus buys it !

    I seem to get something new from the range every time she goes to Boots and there's an offer she just can't resist on Clinique or something similar for herself. Wonderful thing, guilt

    I've started using Clinique in the past few weeks. You can experiment with various products without spending, just ask for samples.

    Nivea for moisturising, the scrubs from Next aren't bad either for a bit of exfoliation action!!

    Go to a chemist and ask for a pot of aqueous cream, you want their own brand its cheaper. Its the standard treatment for eczema, can be used to clean skin, or to moisturise after washing. We use it at work due to handling chemicals all day. Its cheap and is non allergenic.
