This is my daily go-to after I get out of the shower. It's not to greasy, quickly dries matte, does not clog pores, relieves shaving discomfort and keeps my face hydrated. I pair this with most of the Brickell line of men's face care products, but if I only put one thing on my face after I cleanse my skin, it is this. Definite preference for the scented version, has a nice clean but masculine scen Scott H. · brickellmensproducts.com

I'm writing this for my husband, but we both love this product! We both have very sensitive skin and will breakout easily with heavy products. He loves that it has no scent at all. This moisturizer is super light-weight and doesn't leave my skin or his skin greasy at all. My husband was using Clinique's men moisturizer before this, and he's definitely hooked on this one now! :) I like stealing it morgbullard · ambi.com
