Tips For Midlife Dry Skin

Dearest

P.S. Need to add to the article something recommended highly by a dermatologist I saw, CeraVe Moisturizing Cream, over the counter in a large 16 oz. for approximately $15.00. It's excellent for DRY SKIN - mostly face, but can use on very dry skin areas on the body. I also bought the CervaVe Moisturizing Lotion, 12 fl oz. for hands, feet, etc., and the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser, 12 fl oz. Skin feels wonderful after washing face with it. Has a nice velvety feel, then apply moisturizer asap.

The three CeraVe items cost me probably less than half of what one jar of fancy moisturizing cream by Lancome, Elizabeth Arden, Mac, Estee Lauder, et al, sell for. Must remember to add it to my dry skin tips article (link above).
