Is it true that moisturizers containing alcohol will actually make your skin drier in the long term?

I heard this from my nutritionist and from a freind of mine who works in Whole Body Dept at Whole foods. Knowing this, I am reluctant to use moisturizers on my face and body, but still would like some way to my skin supple and young. Are there any recommendations? what about pure vitamin e oil? or burts bees lotions? thank so much

yes,alcohol strips your skin of its natural oils irritating it and drying it our
Reply:Yes, it's true. While okay now and then constant use will dry out your skin.
Reply:There are plenty of moisturizers out there that have no alcohol in them. I am like you, and like to do whatever I need to keep my skin supple. I use the Arbonne anti-aging products (www.arbonne.com) and I use all of them -- the cleanser, toner, serum, eye cream, and moisturizer. I absolutely love how it makes my skin feel. Using wholesome botanical products is important to me.





I'm sure Burt's Bees products are good as well, but I prefer to use products that are more targeted towards anti-aging so that I'm keeping my skin young and firm and smooth.
