Doesn't matter how expensive the cream is, if I forget to use it, I forget to use it. Creams don't evaporate nor dry out, so what does it matter if you forget to use them? I like expensive creams. Yes, I am influenced by advertismsents.
I'm joking, hehe. After showers and in the morning, I use inexpensive creams, such as L'Oreal Revitalift or Aveeno. I just bought Bourghese from Costco, which is good. I tend to wash my face during the daytime so I prefer to use inexpensive creams during the daytime. At night, I use expensive creams, such as Shiseido. I now use Lancome Rare because I have those as free samples.
By the way, Oil of Olay and Pond don't suit my skin well. But a friend will give me this line of Oil of Olay she finds very effective. I will try it and come back for a review.
