What moisturizer for dry skin?

I am in my 50's and have dry skin. Every moisturizer I try melts when I put it on. It is like I am sweating and I can't put my make up on or it just melts right off. What do I do?

    Try artistry...I used to have the same problem but then I tried their products, they have moisturizers and makeups so they are completely compatible with one another, in fact I use one of their lotions as a primer, before putting on their makeup! It works great! (and by the way it doesnt leave you with that greasy feel, it looks flawless...) It worked for me, good luck! Heres the site... http://smccarthy1.qbeautyzone.com/

    I have dry, flaky skin too, as well as oily skin. It can be a problem finding the right moisturizer to use. I am currently working on developing my own homemade skincare products. But for now I use Vit C time release capsules (1000 mg), & Vit E. Every now & then I'll make my own skin lotion. I boil carrots (yes carrots, they are rich in vit A), then I collect the juice in a jar or small container. I then crush up a vitamin C tablet, & a vit E. I mix them together, & add some Aloe Vera, cocoa butter, & shea butter. I then apply the lotion to my face & neck. It works better than anything on the market. & believe me, I've tried EVERYTHING. I even tried that "L'OREAL Skin Genesis & it is crap. A waste of money. The best way to get healthy looking skin is to take vitamins. I also use CLINIQUE water therapy, it isn't greasy. But I still swear by my homemade lotion (keep refrigerated), if u try this u'll see noticeable results in about 1-2 days. (I had small cuts from my cat all over my hand, I put my lotion on it, & the next day they were completely gone., I was amazed!) Good luck!

    Vaseline is good for everything, except faces. Eucerin is also very good. There's a liquid kind, and that works well too.

    Aveeno is the only thing that works for me.
