What Is Men's Moisturiser & Why Do You Need It?
The skin on your face is exposed more than most other parts of your body, which means it's more susceptible to environmental changes, and damage. Using a men’s moisturiser daily, helps to reduce several skin problems, as well as helping to stimulate blood circulation to the face as you massage it in, which helps with skin regeneration.
Key Benefits of Using A Men's Moisturiser:
1. Helps to avoid dry skin
Often if you're showering in warm water, your skin can become dry which can sometimes lead to it feeling sore and uncared for. By using a men’s moisturiser each day after the shower, you can lock in moisture which helps to prevent dry skin.
2. Helps to fight irritation & itchiness
After shaving or when your beard begins to grow back, skin can be left feeling angry, sore and irritated, so using a men’s moisturiser specially designed to care for sensitive skin, like the NIVEA MEN Sensitive Moisturiser, helps to hydrate and calm your skin to relieve this.
3. Helps restore the protective skin barrier after shaving
When you shave your skin is exfoliated by the razor at the same time. This means that dead skin cells are swept away to make way for new, healthier skin cells. Once you've done this, skin is left more exposed so by replenishing your skin with a men's moisturiser, you can restore this protective layer to prevent skin damage throughout the day. Try the NIVEA MEN Sensitive Daily Skin & Stubble Lotion if you often find your skin is often left irritated after shaving.
4. Skin feels smoother & healthier
When your skin is not hydrated it will feel less smooth and appear less healthy, so by using a men’s moisturiser your skin can look its best each day.
5. Moisturiser helps to smooth out fine lines from ageing
Not only does men's moisturiser hydrate dry skin, it also smooths out fine lines on your skin, helping to reduce skin ageing signs as when skin is drier these lines appear more pronounced.
Men's Skin Requires Men's Moisturiser
Although men's skin and women's skin don't look that different, there are several differences between the two, which means skin care products should be tailored to each type. The testosterone hormone found in men means that men's skin is thicker than women's skin by about 25%, and after puberty men's skin becomes oilier too. Not only this but due to facial hair, men's skin is often tougher than women’s skin.
That's why our NIVEA experts have worked hard to create a range of men’s moisturiser that will cater to all your needs and give you the care your skin needs. The NIVEA MEN Sensitive range is designed soothe and hydrate skin throughout the day to reduce irritation.

When Is the Best Time of Day to Use Your Men’s Moisturiser?
Applying your men’s moisturiser straight after you’ve showered or shaved is the best way to lock in as much moisture as you can as often hot water will dry your skin out. If you find your skin type is drier, you should also moisturise before going to bed as the cold air at night also dehydrates skin.
