Best in Test – moisturizers
When snow and cold tear our skin, the face and body can feel so dry that the skin almost crackles. The indoor climate during this season further enhances the effect, as each additive to moisture disappears from the air when it is heated by, for example, hot elements.
The solution is called moisturizer. And each and every man north of the tropic of cancer needs one.
the winner: Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream
Motivation: A light-absorbed face cream full of moisture and nutrients. Does not leave a sticky surface and gives the skin a balance in no time. The result is a well-moistured, elastic skin that neither scratches nor bursts. Despite a slightly higher price, the tube is worth every penny.
2: BENJAMIN BARBER AFTER SHAVE BALM BLACK OAK
Motivation: Benjamin Barber's after shave balm has unexpectedly become popular as a face cream thanks to its exceptional moisturising properties and works to strengthen the skin barrier. This balm is enriched with nourishing ingredients that contribute to a moisturised and vital skin. Although it was originally created to soothe the skin after shaving, many have discovered that it works great as a daily face cream. This product is proof that quality ingredients and thoughtful formulation can lead to unexpected success in the world of beauty.
3: MOLTON BROWN EXTRA-RICH BAI JI HYDRATOR
Motivation: A richer cream suitable for you who are 40+ or has very dry skin. Removes the feeling of dry skin. Absorbs easily even though it is a bit oilier than the other moisturizers in the test. Bonus for fresh male scent.
4: RAW NATURALS MOISTURE BLAST FACE CREAM
Motivation: An affordable moisturizer with environmental reduction! This cream is a good starting point for those who have never used a moisturizer or want to empty the wallet. Moisturizes the skin and provides adequate protection against cold winter days and dehydrating indoor environment.
5: Alvarez Gomez Aftershave Balm
Motivation: A great moisturizer that would have been at the top unless the test panel disagrees with the fragrance. Some people think that the fragrance is "old" others think it's "masculine". Regardless, the smell is quite mild. It is clear that the moisturizer is of very high quality and it just adds a lot of moisture and nourishes the skin. No greasy surface and the skin feels moisturized and calm. Work on the fragrance, Mr. Alvarez, and we will guarantee a first place next year!
