Texture & Consistency

Pros:

  • "The eye cream makes the skin around my eyes feel slightly tighter and absorbs well."
  • "It goes on light and isn't greasy at all."
  • "It has a light smooth texture which blends very well on skin."
  • "The face lotion is light and absorbs well."
  • "The lotion goes on smooth and absorbs quickly."
  • "This moisturizer feels great on my husband's skin, not thick, it just feels right."
  • "This face lotion is lightweight but very moisturizing. It applies nicely, isn't greasy and absorbs well."

Cons:

  • "The product didn’t work well for me. I have fairly dry skin and put lotion on my face daily. This stuff is so light it doesn’t feel like I put any on at all."
  • "Not gritty enough. Is too light and does very little to stimulate the skin as other lotions have."
  • "The lotion is very thick and does not rub in well at all."
  • "It is very light but left a slight burning sensation on my face."
  • "This moisturizer is a watered down ultra light lotion, it does not feel like you are using a moisturizer on your face."
  • "The eye cream is a little thicker, so it does drag on your skin a bit while you are applying, which is not something I love for an eye specific cream."
  • "As stated in the headline, this lotion is runny with an uneven consistency."

Scent

Pros:

  • "An amazing scent that reminds me so much of Christmas."
  • "The scent is pleasant, manly, but those with sensitivities to added fragrance may want to proceed with caution."
  • "They each have this wonderful spruce scent that smells like a fresh cut Christmas tree."
  • "The scent isn't strong and I quickly got used to it, now I even kinda like it."
  • "It’s got a very light, clean scent that does not linger."
  • "The scent being so pleasant is a huge plus for the price."
  • "The scent is pleasant but also very light & won't get in the way of any cologne you may be wearing."

Cons:

  • "Because you put it on your face the scent becomes nauseating very quickly."
  • "The bottle also has a very weird smell which is another problem."
  • "I personally just think the scent is too strong, and wish all the products were unscented."
  • "The added fragrance was the problem here. I broke out right after using it."
  • "Every one of these products is heavily fragranced, so if you are sensitive to that, these won't be for you."
  • "It is a nice sunscreen and very lightweight but it has a very strong chemical like smell!"
  • "The scent was a bit overwhelming for both of us."

Effectiveness

Pros:

  • "The eye cream does wonders for making the under eye area appear brighter and less wrinkled."
  • "The moisturizer keeps my skin hydrated."
  • "works very well for my oily and acne prone skin."
  • "The sunscreen lotion is a little thicker than the regular face lotion but still makes my skin feel smooth."
  • "I've tried many facial moisturizers and this one finally struck the balance I look for - not greasy, absorbs quickly, mild scent, non-irritating, and at least mostly natural ingredients."
  • "This is the only one I've ever tried that works perfectly, no greasy feeling afterwards and my skin stays hydrated for all day."
  • "The sunscreen SPF 50 I can wear on my whole body without looking like a Geisha!"

Cons:

  • "Burned my skin after the first use and left it in pretty bad shape for a few days after."
  • "This is not for someone with excessively dry or oily skin."
  • "Also made my husband's very sensitive skin breakout."
  • "Some might feel skin irritation, depending on the person."
  • "I must be sensitive to this lotion because it made my face break out in places."
  • "After several days of use, i noticed it didn't feel as though it was moisturizing my skin."
  • "I have not had any acne in 30 years and I am getting acne around my hairline of my beard and upper forehead."

Packaging & Presentation

Pros:

  • "This kit comes with a cleanser, moisturizer, eye cream, and a lotion with SPF50."
  • "They come packaged very well and therefore make a great gift."
  • "Came packed in a giftable, sturdy box."
  • "This is a nice, gift-able skincare set for men that includes a cleanser, moisturizer, eye cream, and sunscreen."
  • "Great kit if you want to use it for yourself or gift to others."
  • "This essential kit for men is a convenient all-in-one solution for skincare."
  • "I would highly recommend and suggest this set as a gift option as well!"

Cons:

  • "The box for that seemed very neutral. It wasn’t all flashy with a bunch of colors but came in a brown neutral box."
  • "The box packaging the products came in (not the shipping box) was very thin and smashed up when I got it, so gift-giving would be out."
  • "Box came in a little damaged with it basically opened & product just hanging out in the mailer."
  • "I was really looking forward to moisturizing my face but the box contained 2 cleansers and no moisturizer as pictured on the box."
  • "This doesn't seem like a moisturizer with sunscreen. It's just sunscreen and it smells bad."
  • "Due to the smell, I would not personally order this set again, but if they made a fragrance-free version, I'd love to try that because the products seem good."
  • "Husband got lazy with the regiment and only really used the cleanser and spf."
