(Ad - Gifted) A gift for him for Valentine's Day from Raw Naturals.

My fella Stu has a job where he works outdoors 90% of the time, in all weathers, rain, sun, wind, most likely snow when we have it and over the last few months his skin has taken a real battering. He has dry patches and in some places it's a little flaky. We have been on the hunt for something to help and just at the right time I was emailed and asked if he'd like to try some products from Raw Naturals, a men’s grooming range from Sweden.

Raw Naturals is a natural, stylish range of body, skin and beard care products for men that is the brainchild of 3 Alpine skiers from Sweden who were looking for a high performance moisturiser that would only need to be applied once and see them through a full day on the cold, windswept slopes! The logic is that if the products work in the extreme temperatures of Sweden, they will work anywhere. Each formula combines caring ingredients of vegetable origin with natural oils from oats, coconut and olives, as well as natural honey extracts. 

The Universal Face Cream (£12.99) sounded like something that would do wonders for Stu's face. If it worked for skiers in Sweden it would be fantastic for someone in North Lincolnshire!

Hit refresh with this multi-function face cream that energises, strengthens, and hydrates your skin. Use it every day for naturally smooth skin that looks good and feels great.

The key ingredients are:

Black tea: protects skin and fights free radicals.
Xylitol: energising.
Oat oil: moisturising, soothing - reduces redness and irritation.
Olive oil: softens, moisturises and calms irritated skin.
Jojoba: protects and reduces skin oiliness by removing excess surface oil.
Vitamin E: caring, antioxidant.

Stu has been using this daily and he really likes it. He only has to apply it once, it's not greasy or oily and he said his face is feeling less dry and much more like it used to. I can see it too, it looks better and his is skin looks healthier. Stu would happily buy it in the future. At first he was a little put off by the price but it is one of those products where a little goes a long way and it's worth every penny.

Stu was also sent the Raw Naturals Money Styling Paste (£9.99) to try out. This is a unique styling cream for both gutsy and polished medium to long hairstyles. The soft, elastic wax provides a flawless matte finish and a firm hold without stiffness.

Stu has short hair and so far hasn't tried this out but will be when his hair grows a little and becomes unruly, that time before he gets to go for a hair cut. From the feel of the styling paste it feels great and like you would expect it to.

Both of these products are currently available exclusively in Superdrug along with a whole heap of Raw Naturals products. Everything from shower gel, cleansing fluid, beard oil, shampoo and conditioner and much more.

I think these would make a great addition to a hamper or a little gift for the man in your life for Valentine's Day. Stu already has a list of Raw Naturals products that he wants try in the future.

I was sent these two products free of charge in exchange for this blog post.
