Moisturiser for men

I’m after a good face moisturiser for men. My hubby wants me to buy him a face moisturiser and he has never used one. Can men use the same moisturiser as women???

    My hubby uses Natio firming face and oil free moisturisers- clearly not at the same time. I think he prefers the oil free one because he gets so paranoid about moisturiser “clogging his pores” haha!
    It’s pretty cheap $10-$15 and I usually just pick it up at Priceline but I know not all stores stock it. Smells good too.

    Hahaha my husband should know better, but if I’m not there to nag him, he thinks he can…get away with it? Of course he’s not going to get away with putting giant groves/dips in my moisturising cream. He’s the only one with fingers that size dipping into my cream 😀

    My husband got dobbed in to his mother the day he pointed out my eye wrinkles, “just in case I hadn’t noticed them before”. “Yes Dear, I’m very aware of them. I do see them every time I look in the mirror”. eye roll

    Lol seezora, your hubby reminds me so much of my hubby. Mine doesn’t even wear moisturiser but any time I have mine laying around I find his fingers in them so I too have to stash them somewhere he can’t see them hahaha

    My husband keeps pinching my moisturiser. I kept it near our toothbrushes with a little spoon thing to get the cream out (to avoid getting the cream contaminated). But my husband kept using his fingers, and I found all sorts of gunk in my moisturiser. So now it’s hiding, and I have put a different moisturising cream that he thinks I use, But I don’t 😉

    The ones that he has found that works the best are Nivea for sensitive skin (…because it’s for me) or Olay for sensitive skin (…again because it’s for me) or the Philosophy creams (…because my skin had a horrible reaction to them, and they worked amazingly for him. Was a trial from BH for me).

      I learned long ago, Seezora, not to leave my moisturiser lying around because I`d find big groves in it where hubby had scooped out dollops to use. Now, like you, I only leave out the ones I no longer use and hide my favourites.

      I`ve come to the conclusion he must think the products are working on me so he might as well use them as well.

    My hubby used to use Dermalogica Daily defence SPF 15 and I think this is the best one out of all his moisturisers: http://www.dermalogica.com.au/daily-defense-spf15/97,en_AU,pd.html?cgid=shave&start=1

    However, he prefers the Neutrogena Dry Touch SPF 30 (it’s not a moistuiser, it’s just a sunscreen) as it is completely dry touch and no greasy/oily feeling.

    My hubby uses the Dr. Lewinn’s Facial Moisturising Lotion SPF 30. He had a skin cancer scare about 2 years ago, was told to use a moisturiser with spf, and after trying a few, he really likes this one.

    My partner has been using the Neutrogena Wrinkle Cream lately and absolutely loving it haha it’s got retinol in it and smells fab too!

    Hi Fefe

    My partner uses Natio For Men’s SPF 30+ Face Moisturiser and loves it.

    My partner really likes the Ole Henriksen Sheer Transformation because it’s super light, absorbs quickly and is almost fragrance-free, as well as the REN Daily Supplement Moisturising Cream because it’s a basic, unisex product that’s really rich on the skin.

    Mine loves either the Nivea men’s sensitive or the L’Oréal revitalift (women’s, the wrinkles reduced so much don’t tell him though lol)

    He was using the Clarins Men’s range and liked it until our local Myer closed then he changed to drugstore brands.
