Thread: Moisturizers?

Anyone ever used either of these things: Complete Face & Head Care Lotion - Matte For Men Face moisturizer with SPF 20 - Award Winning- Double Duty Face Moisturizer-Jack Black

Any good? I need a moisturizer with a sunscreen and these are the top candidates. I've been using some other Jack Black products for a while and I really like them, but I also wanted to check about the Matte stuff too.

i nicked a sample at a friends house while using his restroom.. just seemed sticky or chemically to me or something.. for some reason i just wasn't feeling it.. i do like the jack black line though.. just not my bag.


edit.. i tried the jack black at my friends.. i havn't heard of the matte line.. looks promising though..

That's odd. I got the impression that the jack black stuff was pretty natural. Maybe it was just the spf?

I use Trumpers unscented moisturiser as a pre-shave, works great!

+1 on Stu recommendation. I don't know about ones that contain sunscreen, but Trumper's unscented moisturizer is great (pre or post shave). I use mine as a post-shave.

Two other lines that have been fantastic for me are:

1) The NancyBoy Replenishing facial moisturizer.
2) Dr. Hauschka's Quince creme ( I would recommend buying this from the Bay as it is a bit $$)

Thanks, but the spf is a must

I don't use moisturizers, they are just overpriced oil/water emulsions. I do use my own mix of oils to condition my face.

I like the Sharps products. sharpsusa.com Their moisturizer is really nice

Their moisturizer has an SPF of 15. This is fine for just driving to work, working, and driving home. Personally, I like to use more sunscreen over this if I plan on being outside for a long time.

Im new here and saw your post. Ive been using the product you asked about...Matte For Men Complete Face and Head Care Lotion for 2 years now. Here's why its better than the products mentioned...

1) Its a moisturizer, SPF 25, and shine reducer all is one.
2) Its not sticky like other spf products

When I found the line they had just 2 products but they must be doing something right as theve grown to 7 and were just in the NY Times in a story:

The product is worth a look...

yes.. i like the rest of the jack black products.. just not the one with spf..

also.. i recently tried the sharps facial scrub and love it.. i really want to try the rest of their line..
