Moisturiser for Men

Im trying to convince my DH to start moisturising. He has quite oily skin and says anything he puts on his skin makes him feel greasy etc.

I have tried googling etc for some recommendations but was hoping you MSErs could give me some recommendations. DH is mid thirties.

I have heard Clinique mens stuff is quite good? Any ideas please?

    Clinique is good for womens skincare, dont think its that great for mens. Clarins particularly or Lancome are better for mens skincare. Although ex used to swear by Dermalogica but then he had sensitive skin.

    I had the same battle with my bloke! He has a greasy nose and chin but still gets dry flaky skin and I hated it so made him get in the habit of using a moisturiser.

    He used a nivea one at first that came as part of a gift set, but he complained that it made him feel greasy - I think blokes struggle with the feel of having stuff on their skin, they are not used to it I suppose like we are with make up!

    The one he uses at the minute is this one from Boots Botanics

    It's really light and sinks in fast without leaving a filmy feel on the skin, they have some other really good stuff in the range too (men and women's). The only thing really is it doesn't smell that nice, but the smell doesn't last very long so it's not too bad.
