I've tried the ones by Diane Keaton and Ellen Degeneruous (excuse spelling). But I don't wake up looking like Diane and Ellen, I wake up looking like Barefoot's grandmother. Oh no, that is me in the mirror.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good face cream that isn't exorbitantly expensive?
Before I got hooked on the stuff by Elizabeth Arden that cost me my life savings, I always used Olay. The basic stuff in the bottle. I guess it is the original with the SPF 15. It has been around for a really long time, before Olay branched out into all those other kinds of stuff for your face.

I have used Olay for years. And when this high end stuff runs out, I might go back to it. Something about an expensive moisturizer makes me feel a little had. But who really knows. And sometimes I wonder how that Hellmann's (that I am always mixing with fresh dill for salmon or with fresh tarragon for chicken salad) might work. I slather the stuff on everything in my refrigerator. I might as well try Hellmann's on my face.
