Can cold cream cause damage to your dry face skin if used every day? (facial, moisturizer)?

i have very, very dry/sensitive skin and i've been using pond's cold cream for the past several days which has been doing wonders but i was curious about any side effects (i.e. free-radical damage, excessive dryness afterwards, etc). i'm about to try just regular baby oil. also, i heard you can make your *own* cold cream so i plan on making some without borax/sodiumBorate. does anyone know where i can find beeswax in local retail stores? thank you.Can cold cream cause damage to your dry face skin if used every day?

Cold cream is perfectly safe for you. I have combo skin and experienced my first bout of severe dryness after using Noxzema. My mom gave me some of her generic cold cream. After only a few days uses, the dry skin healed, I had no breakouts, and I got compliments on my skin. I use it twice a day and go at least one day using organic high fat yougurt in the morning instead of cold cream. Be sure to gently wipe the cream off with a washcloth instead of just rinsing it.





As for making your own, it is not worth it. The simple, basic cold cream is time-tested. To make it yourself requires cost, experimentation, etc. Just go for convenience. The borate stuff is nothing to worry about.





Oh, and avoid baby oil. It's not even good for babies.Can cold cream cause damage to your dry face skin if used every day? (facial, moisturizer)?
For daily use you should switch over to herbal products. Don't try experimenting your own cold cream. These companies do a lot of reseach and testing before launching a product. And remember you can't and should not experiment on your face. This is your biggest asset.
