    My favourite body moisturiser is St Ives' 24 Hour Moisture. It's available from Priceline for under $10 (I think around $6 actually) for a huge bottle and unlike most moisturisers I've tried, it's not greasy, soaks in really quick, and a little goes a long long way. I got so upset when Woolworths stopped stocking it, I thought I'd never see it again, then I found it at Priceline for cheaper than it had been at Woolies and I bought three bottles just to make sure I never got caught out again hehehe It's awesome stuff, really soft and smooth and makes your skin feel wonderful - the 24-hour moisture promise definitely is true.

    How good is bio oil but your so right, can be expensive. my mother in law brought a whole heap of this stuff called "justine" they have a tissue oil that is much like bio oil, so im using that instead
    My fave moisturiser is Palmers cocoa butter LOVE the smell, i dont like the smell of the stretch mark cream that they do tho

    For an every day body moisturiser, I use Redwin Sorbolene. Comes in a big bottle for about $6-7. I've been using this every day, it's not greasy and feels nice and soft. For a little bit of a splurge I really like the body butters from the Body Shop. They smell and feel divine.

    Glamourcide *snap* on the St Ives...but I go for the vanilla smelling one...they have a lovely vanilla bodywash too which - unlike so many that promise to moisturise - actually does. I had the same problems when Woollies stopped selling it too, eventually found it at Priceline as well. Happy woman now

    For daytime I use Palmers with SPF 15, otherwise the Nivea moisturiser with SPF 30 if I am really out and about. At night either Sorbolene or Palmers with no SPF. When I was pregnant I used to mix my moisturiser with the Bio Oil to make it go a little further.

    i just started using vaseline dry skin conditioning lotion, about $7 for 750ml from woolies. Just thought I would try it one day and I really like it. Makes my skin so soft. Before that I used Nivea.

    I used to be so slack with moisturising but lately I have been good and doing it everyday. At the moment I am using a strawberry body butter from the body shop and it smells divine!
