I would urge you not to LOOK at the video but just listen to it.
What he is saying makes sense but the clothes he's wearing and the poor quality video make watching him a distraction.
What Can You Use As a Skin Moisturizer?

Mayo Clinic Moisturizers

much of the information here How can my diet help protect me from sunburn?: answer also affects skin quality. Both omega 3 and vit d3 are an integral part of the skins natural protection process so without correcting your daily winter vit d deficit you are going to continue to have a problem.

Have a look at the Boots thread. Botanics products are buy one get any moisturiser free. Buy cheapest product (99p soap) and get £8.75 mens moisturiser FREE. I've sorted lods of xmas prezzies this way, although not with the soap as my store never has it so i've been buying shaving el at £1.37?. Worth seeing if you like it for this price.

Try using Shea Butter its cheap lasts ages 100g and is fantastic on skin plus no water or chemical preservatives so its very concentrated also full of natural vitamins.

It's not cheap (£25 a bottle) but I reckon Biotherme stuff is the best......either the anti-rides line peel, D-stress or (the best in my opinion) High Recharge. They are a bit pricey but a little goes a long way and the bottle will last you about two months if not longer.

Tried a few and the best so far is this one:

Also it is made from natural ingredients, not full of chemicals like the over-priced, big brand name stuff.

Costs £8.99 but you don't need much and it lasts for ages. Akamuti stuff is good too: http://www.pureskincare.co.uk/acatalog/Moisturise_and_protect.html

Dry skin is a sign of dehydration - drink more water.

Forgive me for disagreeing. I've seen the doctor countless times regarding dry skin on my hands and face. I drink plenty of fluids, eat a well balanced diet and no cream the doctor could give me would help. Turns out the dry skin is caused by a reaction to soap so every time I was washing my hands or face it was exaccerbating the problem.

I can honestly say the best moisturiser in the world - for men OR women - is Aqueous Cream

Has no soap in, and leaves a very thin layer of oil on your skin to prevent water evaporating from the surface (which leads to dry skin). Either use it as a facewash (since it's a cleansing agent as well as an emolient), or use it sparingly as a moisturiser.

Plus it's cheap as chips at less than £2 for a half kilo tub! Most chemists should sell it.

it depends how dry your face is. mens skin tends to be more oily than womens but it means it stays line free for longer. i use oilatum (prescription but you can buy in Sainsburys) for body and dermalogica on face.

Out of all the moisturisers I have ever used that has ever worked for me and every other of my male mates i've referred to is olay. i know my gran used to use it but some of their newer lines are fantastic for guys skin and not oily at all! trust me. I personally use the olay Regenerist Rehydrating Lotion both at day and night b4 i kip. its got spf 15 too but they have another one for the same price called regenerist replenishing cream without spf which is also good. its a bit pricey at around 20 quid full price but their are always offers at like 10-15 at boots, superdrug and the supermarkets. I cant tell you how good this stuff is for guys. non oily at all, ur skin looks amazing after using it for a week or so, no lie! im not one to rave about any product but trust me give this a try u wont regret it. it feels great after shaving.

guys please go out and by the OLAY REGENERIST REHYDRATING LOTION and report back to me wot u think :j :j
