I have been using No 7 from Boots for years. I often get compliments on my skin. I wouldn't use anything else.

I alternate between oil of Olay and Boots No 7.

I like Liz Earle Superskin and there are always good deals on line, for Christmas or Birthdays I ask for Clarins Super Restorative, but its expensive . I go from one extreme to the other as I found the Aldi one very good, ( sorry cant remember name ) but it was about £6.

I've always used Nivea Soft, skin seems to like it!
I did try various other lotions and potions when I was younger but none felt as good as Nivea.

I love the Marula oil I have been using for about 2 weeks now, it has made my skin look softer and it isn't greasy. Google it and see what people say about it.

Have you tried coconut oil? I use it as a cleanser but once it's wiped off my skin feels very soft and lovely. I pat dry any greasy bits with some tissue so it doesn't get on my pillow but my skin does seem much softer since I've been using it.

Ponds cold cream got great reviews. So did Nivea. Both old fashioned but apparently the best.

I've been a slave to Clinique forever but I'm finding it a bit dry for my skin the past few months and perhaps I need to swap to something for more mature skin. Are there any moisturisers you'd recommend?
