As distinct from the girly one which prob has little bearing on guys' rough manly sexy &c. skin.

I'm deathly afraid of any sort of emollient (srsly, my only phobia), but I've found that using a nice sea sponge in the shower, making sure to scrub well, keeps the skin pretty soft.

My Lab Series For Men Skin Revitalizer is the best moisturizer I've ever used. it's light but really effective.

but it's like 30 bucks.

I start with Body Shop or Natio scrub, then cleanse with Body Shop or Natio cleanser. Finish with a mix of Natio and SkinActives moisturiser, then a mix of Body Shop and SkinActives eye-specific moisturiser.

The u+k benefit of all this is that no animals died or were harmed in the course of my daily regime. Body Shop is now owned by one of the big evils now so I'm moving away from it.

SkinActives is a small US company that packages only the active ingredients found in the ultraexpensive products, tests only on human volunteers and sells it all relatively cheaply. Best discovery in history imo.

How am I meant to get a gnarly wrinkled face if I moisturise, tell me that?

sun exposure, drinking, smoking, etc.

Soap, water and moustache wax are the only cosmetics I need.
