Best for

Normal to dry skin, and anyone whose face feels tight through winter.

Skip if

You are shiny by mid morning. A lighter gel does the same job without adding to it.

Why it made the list

It sits under sunscreen without pilling, which sounds like a detail until you have used one that does not and given up on the whole routine because of it.

What it does

Moisturiser has an image problem among men, which is why it gets skipped and why so many faces feel tight all winter. The job is simple: hold water in so the skin barrier stays intact, and an intact barrier is less prone to redness and flaking. This one turns up on a lot of recommendation lists, and it is not expensive. It sits under sunscreen without pilling, which sounds like a detail until you have used one that does not.

What it will not do

It does not treat spots and it does nothing about sun damage. If you can only add one product for the long run, add sunscreen, not this.

How to use it

On slightly damp skin, within about three minutes of washing. Damp skin holds it better than dry skin. Morning and night. In the morning, sunscreen goes on top.
