Shower & cleanse
My daily shower staple. Leaves me feeling properly clean and fresh after gym or a long day out.
Protex Body Wash
My go-to when my skin feels grimy after a long day. The charcoal gives a proper deep clean, and my face feels fresh, not stripped.
Nivea Men Deep Impact Face Wash 100ml
I reach for this on hot days when my face gets shiny by lunch. It keeps things matte a lot longer.
Nivea Men Oil Control Face Wash 100ml
Pairs perfectly with the Even Tone cream in this list. Gentle enough for every morning and part of what keeps my skin looking even.
Nivea Men Even Tone Face Wash
Shave
Gives a close shave without the burn or red bumps. A little goes a long way, so a can lasts ages.
Nivea Men Shaving Gel
Moisturise & even tone
My grab-and-go face cream. It sinks in fast without feeling sticky, has UV filters for daily sun, and the licorice extract helps keep my tone even. I use the little tin on my face and hands, and it smells fresh without being too much.
Nivea Men Even Tone Creme UV
My everyday body lotion. It soaks in fast with zero greasy feel, so I can get dressed straight away, and the vitamin B3 has helped even out my patchy spots over time. A 400ml bottle lasts ages for the price.
Vaseline Men Even Tone Body Lotion
Protect
The step most guys skip, but I don't. Light enough to wear daily, and it keeps the even-tone results from being undone by the sun.
Nivea Sun Sunscreen
Lives in my pocket all winter. The dry Highveld air cracks my lips fast, and this fixes it overnight.
Nivea Lip Balm
Never lets me down, even on the hottest Joburg days. Goes on smooth and keeps me fresh from morning till late.
