Replacement for Decleor Hydra Floral?

[Pick-a-Lily]

Like many people I was gutted when L’Oreal discontinued the Decleor brand. I was very keen on their Hydra Floral rich moisture cream, it just suited me perfectly. I’m down to the last possible smear at the bottom of my last jar … god knows how old it is …
But what can I replace it with?

Have you tried the Liz Earle superskin? That might suit.
I'm similarly frustrated that L'Oreal binned the brand rather than perhaps selling it and its formulations to another investor. I always found the Decleor products I used to be very effective.

Now, other places sell this cream, but SpaceNK has reviews.

I used to use Hydra Floral but stopped after L'Oréal changed it. I really like Inkey List Ceramide Moisturiser, avaliable in lots of places and price really reasonable.

Haha well guess what? I did a deep stash dive - so deep I had to get hubby to hold onto my ankles - and I found another pot of hydra floral rich cream, two bottles of Iris aromescence, and two pots of Iris night balm, all in a 40th anniversary bag, which dates it to 2014! It’s been kept in a cold, dark place, so I hope it’s still usable

I found some Decleor recently which was over 3 years old and it was only fit for the bin!!!

Oh no…
Haven’t opened it yet. Will report back in due course!

If it hasn't been subjected to significant temperature changes and hasn't been exposed to sunlight, it may still be ok. Sniff and texture tests... and try if first on somewhere other than the midfle of your face. If it smells and feels ok, and you don't react it should be good to use. Just bear in mind the effectiveness may not be what it once was.

Decleor always had aroma ingredients and they do go off quicker.

So this morning up before 7 am put on BBC news and caught part of an item. It was about younger just coming into teens using cosmetic products meant for older adults and the problems it can cause on their skin. So showed a young girl who had an allergic skin outbreak showed her dressing table, and what did I spot, a tube of Decleor! If anyone ever used to Decleor it stood out.

Funnily enough this article was online a couple of days ago.

The horrifying consequences of using make-up past its sell-by date

Specialists cautioned that such old products can be home to a cocktail of bacteria not visible to the naked eye that infest the skin and wreak havoc.
