Let's be honest – most blokes aren't interested in a 12-step skincare routine that takes longer than their morning coffee.
But here's the thing: your skin works hard for you every day, and it deserves better than a splash of water and hope for the best. After 25 years of formulating natural skincare, we've learned that men's skin has its own unique needs, and the good news is, meeting those needs doesn't have to be complicated.
Thicker skin: Men's skin is roughly 25% thicker than women's, which means it can handle more, but it also means it needs proper care to stay healthy.
More oil production: Higher testosterone levels mean more sebaceous gland activity – that's why many men struggle with oiliness and enlarged pores well into their adult years.
Daily shaving stress: Regular shaving creates micro-abrasions and can lead to irritation, ingrown hairs, and sensitivity.
Less maintenance awareness: Most men simply weren't taught skincare basics, so they're starting from scratch.
The beauty of understanding these differences is that we can create a targeted approach that actually works – without the fuss.
After years of helping thousands of our male Moonies find their groove, we've discovered that the most successful skincare routine for men is refreshingly simple: cleanse and moisturise. That's it.
Wet your face with warm water.
Lightly lather the Tea Tree-T Cleansing Bar – wet your hand, then swipe it once or twice across the soap. This gives you just enough lather for your face (you don’t need much).
Gently massage the lather over your face to cleanse.
Rinse well with warm water and pat dry.
While your skin is still slightly damp, apply a pea-sized amount of Nature's Own Moisture Lotion.
76 & Still Getting Compliments
"I have been using this product for many years. I receive many favourable comments regarding my youthful skin. I am 76 years of age .. I’m happy to receive the compliments. Lol"
ROD B. Perth WA
Tea Tree-T Cleansing Bar delivers natural clarification with organic green clay, antibacterial action from tea tree oil, and balancing properties that prevent over-drying.
One bar lasts 2-3 months with daily use.
Nature's Own Moisture Lotion is unscented, lightweight, absorbs quickly without greasiness, and works on face, hands, and any dry spots.
Pleased I made the change
"I was sceptical about switching from my usual face wash, but this soap has completely changed my skin. No more midday shine, and my wife says I look healthier!" – Mark S.A.
If you're sporting facial hair, here's your bonus step: add our Beard Oil to your routine. Just a few drops worked through your beard will:
Tame the wild: Softens even the scruffiest beard
Soothe the skin: Reduces itch and irritation underneath
Add subtle appeal: Our signature Casablanca scent is quietly irresistible
"Love the beard oil.
I like how light it feels in the beard and the discrete scent.
Also love that it's natural and that I can give my kids big chin cuddles without irritating their skin."
– Louis, WA
