Good Men's Facewash/Moisturiser

I was wondering if anyone could recommend some good moisturiser and facial scrub for men?

I have very pale skin and I've come out in a couple of spots recently and was wondering what the best thing to use to help clear it up.

Thanks

    My OH got me Nivea For Men rehydrating moisturiser and there exfoliating face scrub.

    My face gets rather dry during the winter and starts to flack a bit. Any other moisturiser I used made my skin very greasy looking, but this stuff doesn't.

    The face scrub is suppose to unblock pores, but I haven't really used that one much so can't comment. But they are cheapish so perhaps worth a look.

    Yeah I've used Nivea For Men before too. I had to use the sensitive range though, otherwise I came out in spots (think I'm allergic to the smelly stuff they put in).

    I exfoliate my face about once a week (max), I don't think you should do it too often. Fot moisturizing, I use Nivea Creme (the blue pot) and Clarins Men Super Moisture Balm.

    I got a free moisturiser with a pack of razor blades and razor, it's Gilette's own brand after shave moisturiser. Smells quite nice and although it does leave the skin slightly oily ir definitely gets rid of any dryness in my face and a little bit goes a long way.

    I may try the Nivea face scrub and moisturiser though I have heard good things about it.

    My husband uses the Nivea one and it's great for his skin. I use it on my hands sometimes and it's good quality cream.

    Liz Earle's hot cloth face wash is suitable for men, and I think they also do a men's moisturiser.

    The Simple range is very good and cheap as chips. The loreal stuff and others is seriously overpriced.

    Clinique facial scrub is fantastic, a bit expensive but I get an incredibly close shave after using it.

    I wouldn't recommend anything by Nivea but Burt's Bees make some great face washes and anyone's allowed to use them! :D

    Wow, this was the one I was going to mention! It's amazing, feels like your skin has been cleaned from the inside out....

    My OH uses this now, I tried it on him once, and he uses the small bottle now, and finds it great at clearing pores!

    Couldn't recommend it highly enough!

    For a moisturiser, you could always try Dr Organic's Organic Aloe Vera Skin Lotion which is free of parabens, etc. http://www.drorganic.co.uk/aloe-products.asp (top row, fourth one along)

    Dr Organic Manuka Honey Face Scrub is a good one for a facial scrub - Only £5.99 from Holland & Barrett.

    For moisturising, the Dr Organic Vitamin E Skin Lotion is perfect for the face and entire body - Also £6.49 from Holland & Barrett.

    Good value when brought together as you can usually get some sort of deal in the store e.g buy one, get one half price,

    I find the above are great for the skin, and just as good as any far more expensive types I've used in the past.
