I have been using different skin creams all my life, keep changing between Lancôme and Estée Lauder, then recently Elemis. I recently bought Elizabeth Arden night cream. It seems nice. My mother used Elizebeth Arden and she had good skin. Has anyone used it or is using it?
And am I asking too much for someone over 70!!

No I shouldn't think you are asking too much. Elizabeth Arden is well established brand used by thousands of people very happily. I have used the make up but not the skin cream. I am faithful to Clarins which keeps my clear nice and clear (it gets remarked upon) but there are many other brands that would be just as good or perhaps better. I think its about what you like, what works for you and what you can afford - these things aren't cheap.

I use the Elizabeth Arden one in a pot with ceramide. I've no idea what that is, but it is very smooth.

I agree WELLBECK...I use both the night and day creams....Have used expensive brands in the past but can't see any difference between them and Aldi brand...

I use Aldi and Lidl brands. They are excellent. It's a great way to save pennies that I can now spend on energy and petrol!
No magic cream is going to turn back the clock I'm afraid.

You say you have used the night cream and it suits you. Have you not answered your own question?
If it suits you, and you are happy with it, why not stick with it - or alternatively one of the the other brands you have tried?
I think we are all tempted to try to find the “magic” cream to keep our skin looking good but I suspect it’s not so much the cream but remembering to use it.

i use Vitamin E skincare spf 15 moisturising day cream.. from Superdrug..... there is no need to spend lots of money on an expensive brand. vitamin E is very important ingredient.

I have used Lacura from Aldi in the past which is also good
