Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: What skin types is this men’s moisturiser suitable for? A: Our Men’s Enhancing Facial Moisturiser is formulated to be gentle and effective for all skin types, including normal, dry, oily, combination, and sensitive skin.
Q: Is this suitable for oily or acne-prone skin? A: Yes. It is arguably the best men’s face cream for oily skin because it uses Jojoba and Hemp Seed oils. These oils regulate your skin’s natural oil production rather than blocking it, helping to reduce shine over time.
Q: Will it leave my skin feeling greasy? A: No, its lightweight formula is easily absorbed, providing deep nourishment and hydration without leaving a greasy residue.
Q: How does this fit into a best men’s grooming routine? A: A solid grooming routine only needs three steps: Cleanse, Hydrate, and Protect. This moisturiser covers the “Hydrate” step perfectly, acting as both a skin conditioner and post-shave soother.
Q: Does it contain SPF? A: No. We chose not to include SPF so you can use this cream at night (when skin repairs itself) without clogging your pores with sunscreen filters. We recommend a separate SPF for daytime use.
Q: Is this suitable for sensitive skin or after shaving? A: Yes. We formulated this to be the best men’s moisturiser for sensitive skin. It uses NZ Harakeke and Kawakawa—two powerful native botanicals known to calm redness and soothe razor burn faster than standard Aloe Vera.
Q: What does it smell like? A: It has a subtle, clean, and masculine scent. We use NZ Kānuka and Mānuka to create a fresh, woody aroma that smells like the outdoors, not a perfume counter.
Q: How long will one jar last? A: With typical daily use (a small amount applied morning and night), one 60mL jar should last approximately 3-4 months.

I bought this for my husband who usually refuses to use skincare. He loves it because it’s simple, fast, and doesn’t smell like perfume. His skin looks so much healthier and softer now. I love that it’s NZ-made and plastic-free. Will definitely be purchasing again!
Peter R (verified owner) –
An excellent face moisturiser that leaves my skin feeling so good all day long. Very happy with the customer service, quality ingredients, and sustainable packaging. I am a repeat customer of all the men’s products and recommend them to others.
Gerald B (verified owner) –
I love using this moisturiser after shaving. It’s incredibly soothing and leaves my skin feeling calm and comfortable all day. My face and neck have never felt better.
Linda B (verified owner) –
I originally bought this for my husband, but our 19-year-old son started using it for his dry skin and eczema flare-ups. It’s improved his skin so much that others have commented on it. It’s gentle enough for him but still effective for my husband. A real family favourite.
Clint E (verified owner) –
My skin gets dry patches around my nose and forehead, especially in winter. I’ve tried a few things from the supermarket that felt greasy, but this face cream is different. It’s lightweight, sinks in straight away, and my face just feels comfortable all day. The subtle, clean scent is a bonus. Highly recommend.
Tom D (verified owner) –
I’m outdoors a lot, and my skin takes a beating. I wanted to support a local NZ brand and this has been a great find. It deals with the windburn without feeling heavy or sticky. It’s good to see quality ingredients like Harakeke being used. It just works. Good stuff.
Dylan K (verified owner) –
My wife bought me this, and to be honest I thought it would just sit on the shelf. I started using it to keep her happy and was genuinely surprised. The dry, rough texture on my cheeks has smoothed out, and it just feels better. I never thought I’d be a ‘moisturiser guy’, but I’m sold on this one.
Matt E (verified owner) –
I was constantly getting razor burn on my neck, but this has sorted it out completely. I use it every morning after my shave and it just calms everything down. Doesn’t sting, isn’t oily, and the tight feeling I used to get is gone. A little goes a long way too, so the jar should last a decent while.
Dave. S (verified owner) –
As a Kiwi bloke who loves the outdoors, I appreciate that this moisturiser is made with local ingredients like Manuka and Harakeke. It’s great to support a New Zealand brand, and my skin feels fantastic.
Liam. R (verified owner) –
This moisturiser is a game-changer for my post-shave routine. It calms any irritation and leaves my skin feeling smooth and hydrated. The scent is amazing too – very fresh and natural. Definitely a keeper!
Mark. T (verified owner) –
I’ve tried countless moisturisers, but this one from Scenturie is by far the best. It’s lightweight, absorbs quickly, and leaves my skin feeling hydrated and refreshed all day long. I love that it’s made with natural ingredients and doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin. Highly recommend!
Simon B (verified owner) –
I’m in my 40s and starting to notice some fine lines. This moisturiser has definitely helped to improve my skin’s texture and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. It’s not greasy at all and absorbs quickly, which is a bonus.

I bought this for my husband, and he loves it! It’s made a noticeable difference in his skin, which is now much softer and smoother. Plus, it smells amazing!

Hi Tania, I just wanted to let you know that the Scenturie skin care products I recently ordered from you and have commenced using, are probably the best skin care range I’ve ever tried, the way it sits on my skin and the deep moisturising properties and ingredients are just superb.
I’m a guy in my early 50’s, so shifting to more natural, antioxidant rich products has been a mission of mine for a few years now and I’m thrilled to have found your products all made here in NZ.
The last thing I feel is rather interesting to share with you is that I’ve suffered from alopecia (off and on) for over 10 years and I’ve found my facial alopecia has almost disappeared since using your products … perhaps it’s some of the natural ingredients reducing inflammation of the hair follicles plus now wanting to change all of my body products as well will continue to make a difference.
Thanks for creating such a nutrient rich, natural skin care range – I’ve found my perfect products now 😃

sandee everett (verified owner) –
I’m rating this on behalf of my husband. He’s asked me to reorder again and I can say I am more than happy to oblige! His skin is looking quite smooth. Before using the crème, he had a dry patch on his nose and that has cleared up. Im so glad he takes care of his skin as I have to look at him everyday!
Cameron B (verified owner) –
I love this moisturiser for its smooth, easy application, and the way my skin feels afterwards. It provides the necessary moisture for my sensitive/dry skin all day long. Along with daily use of the rest of the Scenturie Men’s range I have seen a definite improvement in my skin texture and health.
Chris H (verified owner) –
I am very happy with this moisturiser. My skin doesn’t have a tight, dry feeling anymore, it feels healthy again. The rest of the men’s range is very nice to use too. I will be purchasing again. Thanks.

This formulation absorbs quickly leaving a softness and hint of plumpness to my skin which at my age is a welcome change. I can highly recommend this product.
