Curel Lotion for the Face

Posted by Dan Florio Jun 21, 2006

I really prefer using this simple lotion for a facial moisturizer after showering or shaving. I put a nickle sized amount in my palm and smooth it around my face and neck.

Why do I prefer this regular hand lotion for my face?

• It doesn't smell girly or anything. Mine is fragrance free, although my wife thinks it smells nice in a clean way
• It is not greasy, sticky or waxy
• The effect lasts all day
• It makes me feel smooth
• It's soothing if I get razor burn
• It is hypo-allergenic and non-comedogenic (doesn't block pores)
• It's not as expensive as a department store moisturizer
• Works double duty for hand and body lotion as well

I don't need to use an aftershave when I use this, which is a bonus for business meetings. Nobody wants to smell another man's aftershave these days. It's too intrusive.

Curel makes a 2.5 oz easy-travel size bottle of Daily Moisture Therapy Lotion. The cost is around $5-6. The tube travels just fine and doesn't leak, unless you pack something that presses down on it. Bagging your lotions in a ziplock is always advised in any case.
