Can anyone recommend a night time moisturizer that won't leave my skin feeling tacky/sticky? It seems like everything that I try leaves my skin feeling tacky, some worse than others, but all at least a little bit. 

 

My morning moisturizer is Aveeno Positively Radiant SPF 30 and it's awesome, absorbs nicely and leaves my skin feeling soft and non sticky. I'm looking for something just like that for night time use without the SPF. 

 

I generally use drugstore brands rather than QVC or department store brands.

 

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

This one. It's for face and body. The ingredients are very good. Leaves my face feeling hydrated and has a soft velvety-feel, not sticky or tacky at all. The price will knock your socks off. Reviews for this are outstanding. Many people love it.

 

Gold Bond Pure Moisture Lotion -  less than $6

@rnmomTry putting on moist skin - spray skin w/ a toner/essence or even just plain water.

I'm using the Gold Bond at night too.  Get it from Amazon, they're practically giving it away. You don't need a lot.

@rnmom   I go all out w/ my night moisturizer and spend more than I normally do for Skinceuticals 2:4:2. It does have a balm like texture...you just need a bit. 

 

Since I do my evening routine an hour or more before bedtime, everything has a chance to dry down and sink into my skin.

Looks like Gold Bond has kept the petro out of this one, so happy to see them taking a step forward.

My skin is oily so I use Trader Joe's  oil free moisturizer.  Comes in a 6 oz. Pump bottle for around $8 the last time I bought it. I have been using this for years.

I really like the Gold Bond Pure Moisture and also Clinique Moisture Surge for Nighttime, but since you mentioned a drugstore purchase I recommend the Gold Bond. It works great, not oily and is hypoallergenic, a requirement for me. The price is excellent!
