There are a number of different skin type classes; men with over productive sebacious glands may have oily skin and will therefore need a completely different moisturiser to someone with dry skin. MGR have taken the ball-ache out of searching for the right moisturiser for your skin, as below is a list of the Top 10 Mens Moisturisers of 2010.
Each moisturiser has been tested and where full reviews are available, a link will be posted. We have also tried to find the cheapest place where you can buy this moisturiser from. As with all our reviews, if you do mange to find the product any cheaper please notify our other readers in the comments section. Cheers.

We had to award this gel based moisturiser the Best Overall Moisturiser of 2010 simply because it is well priced, goes a long way, is rapidly absorbed, and leaves your skin looking new and refreshed. Simply put it is near perfect.

Best Moisturiser for Oily Skin
Best Oil Control Moisturiser
The mission is to absorb excess oil that your skin produces throughout the day, while keeping your skin hydrated. We gave this the award of Best Oil Control Moisturiser just because of the versatility of the product. Use it in the morning and at night, and over any Clinique post shave moisturiser.
However if you are on a tighter budget, read our review of the highly rated Men-U Matt Moisturiser

Best Tanning Moisturiser
Best Self Tanner 2010
Without doubt the Best Tanning Moisturiser for Men is Anthony Logistics Self Tanner with Anti-Aging Complex. We chose to give this the award of Best Tanning Moistuiser 2010 over the L’Oreal Men Expert Tanning Moisturiser we reviewed in another post, because it has two extra benefits. The texture is even less greasy and the smell of orange is nicer than the tan/chemical smell in the L’Oreal product. Saying that though, the L’Oreal is priced far more attractively but this isn’t the budget award so Anthony for Men gets it by a whisker.

If you are visiting somewhere with harsh weather conditions, work out doors or simply want to protect your skin – this is the product for you. It forms an invisible but almost impenetrable barrier to protect your skin from the elements.

There of lots of “miracle” anti aging products on the market, most with a very high price tag. Lab Series for Men is different. It is priced sensibly, can be used everyday – morning and night and is ultra absorbant and gets rid of crows feet

Best Anti-Fatigue Moisturiser

Let’s face it, if your skin ever needed some life injected into it, the morning after a night out is the prime time. To combat this, Nickel have developed this moisturiser that contains soy protein for radiance and softness. It also boast unroasted coffee for a firming and stretching effect.
