Today I've got one for the men, as my hubby has put a selection of products from KLIM to the test..
If you haven't heard of the brand KLIM before, it is a skincare range for men by Michael Klim, the Australian Olympian Swimming Champion. Common for all products are that they are made in Australia from 95% naturally derived ingredients.
The KLIM FRESHEN Face + Body Scrub, is a great multi-tasking product which my hubby really likes. It is made with nori seaweed, spirulina, aloe vera, and walnut shell, along with marine ingredients, to help regulate the skin, provide anti-aging and anti-bacterial properties to treat wounds and minor skin infections while soothing the skin, all while exfoliating and giving the skin a deep cleanse.
The scrub is intended to be used every few days, and is gentle enough not to irritate the skin, yet coarse enough to buff away any dead skin cells and leave the skin soft and smooth. My hubby is not huge on using body scrubs, but he's enjoying using it in the shower on his face and neck. He also love the subtle yet masculine scent.
The KLIM WASH Face Wash is intended to help gently cleanse the sin, unplug clogged pores to prevent breakouts, thanks to containing mineral extracts and essential oils, yet without drying out the skin. It is made using rosemary, peppermint, Nori and spirulina extracts which among others help moisturise the skin and support healthy collagen while fighting off skin-damaging free radicals, provide anti-aging and anti-bacterial properties, while having a refreshing and cooling feeling on the skin, thanks to the peppermint, which also gives it the nice fresh scent, which also helps give the skin kick-start in the morning.
Finally, the KLIM HYDRATE Face Moisturiser + Sunscreen SPF15 is a daily moisturiser containing brown and green algae, and vitamins A, B and E to help nourish and protect the skin, and provide anti-ageing benefits at the same time. This moisturiser is quite light, and so it is easy to spread over the skin and it absorbs quickly. Yet it is quite moisturising. My hubby has pretty normal skin which does tend to become a little dry on the cheeks and chin where he shaves, but this moisturiser manages to keep his skin soft and smooth. It is initially a little greasy, but I think that is common for most SPF, but once absorbed fully into the skin it doesn't feel or look greasy at all. It has a gorgeous masculine scent thanks to the added rosemary and mint, though this scent does tend to fade. My hubby is not to fussed (typical male?!),but personally I would have preferred if it had come with at least SPF30 for a better protection of the harsh Aussie sun.
But regardless, these are great products, which are lovely to use, smell great and live up to their claims, and are very budget friendly too. And you can only love the simplistic packaging with the square white bottles and grey lids too.
