How do you use King C. Gillette Moisturiser?

Using King C. Gillette Moisturiser as part of a facial care routine is a simple two-step process. First, cleanse your face with King C. Gillette Beard & Face Wash. This will gently remove dead skin cells and the naturally secreted sweat and sebum oils that - if left on the skin - can degrade and oxidise to cause itching and inflammation. Next, dispense 2 or 3 pumps of moisturiser into your palm, then apply it to your face, neck and stubble. Working from top to bottom, make sure to carefully work it into the skin under the hair.

Why is King C. Gillette Moisturiser important in a face care routine?

Skin is still visible, even if you sport a beard, so it's important to look after more than your facial hair to ensure a well-groomed look. Every day, cleanse your face to wash away harmful bacteria. On days when you shave, use the King C. Gillette Beard Trimmer (or the King C. Gillette Style Master if you like more flexibility in your stubble style). But whatever look you prefer, make sure to always finish by applying moisturiser; it keeps skin hydrated and maintains the skin's natural moisture barrier, which will leave even the skin under your beard looking radiant.

Helps to maintain the skin's natural moisture barrier

King C. Gillette Moisturiser contains emollients - including dimethicone and argan oil - which provide an effective moisture barrier leaving skin and hair feeling soft, smooth and comfortable. Glycerine binds water in the upper layers of the skin, offering immediate and long-lasting hydration, while Vitamin B3 (niacinamide) delivers skin barrier strengthening benefits. The emollients are light, allowing for fast absorption and a non-greasy feeling on the skin.

Relieves signs of dryness and skin irritation

A lack of attention to skin care can reduce the skin's natural moisture barrier, leaving the skin looking dull or flaky, and making it feel tight and itchy. Formulated with Provitamin B5 (panthenol), King C. Gillette's Moisturiser soothes the skin, offering relief from itching and signs of irritation due to dry skin. As part of a regular skin care regime, this Face & Stubble Moisturiser will leave skin hydrated, so it feels comfortable and looks radiant.

Conditions hair to soften prickly stubble

The emollients in King C. Gillette Moisturiser do double duty - they leave skin feeling smooth and comfortable as well as softening rough and scratchy facial hair. A well-groomed beard can be used to hide imperfections, and it's even more effective if your facial hair looks and feels soft too. Coarse beard hair can also be tough to shave or tricky to get a razor through. By hydrating the hair as well as the skin, you can enjoy a more comfortable shave.

Scented with King C. Gillette's signature scent

As a nod to the finer things in life, the Face & Stubble Moisturiser is scented with King C. Gillette's bold and masculine signature scent. Featuring top notes of juicy mandarin, spicy ginger and crisp peppermint, you'll feel refreshed as soon as you dispense the moisturiser. You'll notice middle notes of fresh geranium, creamy bourbon oil and exotic sage when you apply the product, then enjoy the lingering base notes of patchouli, cedarwood and labdanum - and they'll stay with you throughout the day.

Sooth your skin and relieve signs of dryness and irritation

A good looking beard isn't just about the facial hair - the skin underneath needs to be well maintained too. As part of a facial care routine, King C. Gillette Moisturiser helps maintain the skin's natural moisture barrier, giving you smooth, hydrated, radiant-looking skin. With its lightweight emollient oils, non-greasy formula, Vitamin B complex ingredients and featuring King C. Gillette's signature scent, you can enjoy healthy-looking skin as part of a well-groomed look.

How often should I use the King C. Gillette Face and Stubble Moisturiser to achieve the best results?

As a daily face moisturiser, you can use this King C. Gillette beard moisturiser as a part of your morning routine - even on days when you aren't shaving. This is because the non-greasy formula of the King C. Gillette moisturiser means it can act just as well as a beard moisturiser when you have facial hair growth as it does serving as a face moisturiser when you've just shaved. Either way, daily use is recommended to maintain soft, well-hydrated skin, just like our Beard and Face Wash which can also be used every day.
