Body Moisturisers Reviews
As men, finding a body moisturiser that’s both effective and no-fuss is essential. We need something that absorbs quickly, doesn’t leave a greasy residue, and tackles dryness effectively. Look for key hydrating ingredients like aloe vera or shea butter. A light, fresh scent is preferable, keeping it masculine without being overwhelming. The right moisturiser should leave our skin feeling smooth and refreshed, ready for the day ahead.

Argentum Apothecary Silver Infused Skincare
I’ve used and reviewed the Argentum skin cream before back in 2013 when the brand first launched with only the skin cream. The brand relies on two essential skincare componants: the first being Silver Hydrosol and then DNA HP Marine Extract. Argentum products feature almost 100% natural ingredients and are perfect for problem skin. I’ve…

The Body Shop targets sensitive skin with NEW Almond Milk & Honey Bodycare
Finding gentle and nourishing body care when your skin is easily irritated can be a pain; believe me I know. You’re either stuck with ‘sensitive’ products that really aren’t, i.e. Dove Men+ Care or go down the pharma rout such as E45, Aqueous creams and other drab, dull and joyless products. The range is composed of the…

NEW Pinita Colada Body Care from The Body Shop
This is my favourite cocktail of all time – well, the alcoholic version. The perfect balance of creamy sweetness and fruity tanginess. I could drink these all summer! In fact there’s an amazing beach bar in Xavia, Spain where I’ve gone for years with both friends and family. A photo posted by Thom Watson •…

The Body Shop Enrich Not Exploit Campaign & Limited Edition Hemp Hand Cream
Whilst I’m still on a high from the incredible skincare The Body Shop has been producing lately, it’s been further added to with the new Enrich Not Exploit campaign. Until recently, The Body Shop seemed to have faded into just another mid-range beauty brand and had most certainly lost its way. The new campaign that…

Before the current version, way back when, The Body Shop used to do a fabulous well being range with several sub-collections aimed at relaxation, energisation, detoxification and sleep in Kilner jar-style packaging, made with all-natural materials and essential oils.

Aesop Petitgrain Hydrating Body Gel
It’s been 25 degrees here in Huddersfield today without a single cloud in the sky. I’ve popped inside to write this as it’s started to cool down but I’ll need to nip back into the garden to water the plants so I’ll be brief. I’ve kept from frazzling in the sun today with the aid…

Every time I see body oils, little sirens go off in my head as I can just picture my skin and face breaking out into a greasy, spotty mess; I can’t be the only one that things this? So, I’ll have to be honest to say that I put off reviewing Argan Plus Precious Oil…
