can anybody recommend a good face moisturiser for men?

Our faces (men and women) are made of the same oils, cells, etc, so men can use the same products that women use. The only reason brands have a "mens range" is for marketing purposes - men would prefer to buy a black or blue bottle of face wash rather than a pink or cream one.
Just make sure he is using the right wash/moisturiser for his skin type - same as the ladies do! If it's oily skin, or dry, you have to buy the products specialised for oily, or dry skin, otherwise you are doing more damage than good.

One that I've been using for years now is the Carrot Cream from Body Shop. Good moisturising, not a strong smell, no too fatty and has beta caroten for the all important healthy tint of the skin...:) The only problem is that it probably doubled its price over last 8 years.

There is a Simple range that you can get from Boots. It's fragrance free and good value for money.
Body Shop do a good mens range (and they will give you little samples for free to see if you like it.) Prices are a little more than the Simple range though.
All the bigger brand names like Clinique - you're paying for the name and lots of anti aging chemicals, making them significantly more expensive.

Hi, I can recommend a product my husband has been using for the past 4 months and really likes. It is from a company called Arbonne and it is their NutriMenC Line. They have a complete set, but you can buy the items separately. They have a SPF8 Moisturizer in the line. Since my husband has been using these products he doesn't get ingrown hairs anymore and his neck doesn't itch all the time. You can view it in their online catalog at http://www.wonderful.myarbonne.com

To be honest, men can use the same skin care as women. I would reccommend products from H2o, Nuetrogena, and Clinique though.

Elemis do a great kit on QVC for men, with shaving products also contained.

Nivea seems to be pretty good - (white bottle, blue cap) and totty like the smell. I use it after shaving. Splendid stuff.
