What is it?
Described as a botanically-based lightweight formula that replenishes the skin's essential moisture, this men's moisturiser claims to leave the skin feeling smooth and refreshed with a shine-free matte finish. It contains aloe vera, chamomile and herbal extracts to soothe inflammation, defend against cell damage and free radicals, and reduce the signs of premature ageing.

How we tested
We used a multi-skin test centre to evaluate 25 different men’s moisturisers, measuring the hydration of the skin immediately after application and then after a six-hour period.
GHI Expert Verdict
Our testers were glad to see that despite being a lightweight formula, a little product went a long way. They were impressed with its overall performance, describing it as ‘very moisturising’ and noticeably improving dry areas. Thanks to its cool feel and refreshing scent, some testers also said it helped soothe their skin after shaving. Although a few found its texture a little thin, all agreed that it softened their skin. In fact, around three-quarters of all our testers saw a difference to the condition of their skin after the trial.
