User trial of 8 moisturisers for men, priced from $7 to $75 per 50mL
We arranged for 57 male home testers to trial eight 'normal skin' moisturisers. Participants were given six unidentified moisturisers, which they used for three days consecutively, one on each cheek.
We also included the Redwin Sensitive Skin Sorbelene Moisturiser in the trial to see how it compared with the specialised men's products.
We asked our home testers to assess:
-
How well the product worked as a moisturiser.
-
The appeal of the texture.
-
The strength and appeal of the fragrance.
-
The ease of absorption.
Please note: this information was current as of April 2008 but is still a useful guide today.
