'Perfect' Father's Day present dubbed 'must have for dads' is £11

When it comes to finding the perfect gift for the men in our life come Father's Day, we often turn to the usual contenders when stuck for ideas: graphic and bright socks, cologne, a top quality bottle of booze, or-if they're lucky-an experience day out.

But one thing dad's often overlook but will no doubt be appreciative of is skincare, especially skincare that aids in slowing down the signs of ageing. One brand that has stood the test of time for delivering top quality skincare that has been designed for and is aimed at men is Bulldog.

The brand's formulas are for a range of people, from those with strong beards to skincare whizzs and newbies who just need a push in the right direction. Bulldog's collection has no strong or synthetic fragrance and natural ingredients and is made to help any father figure feel and look their best. Plus, those who spend over £30 will get an extra £5 off.

Also, there are some glorious gift sets that already have money off with some being reduced by up to 30% (at the time of writing). For example, for the dads that are needing a bit of help to kickstart their skincare journey, the brand's Original Skincare Kit has been reduced to £11.20 down from £16 and contains a simple routine of facial wash, scrub and moisturiser all neatly packed into a branded washbag.

With only three steps, it's an easy process to introduce any man to the world of skincare. It's a good deal against the likes of Clinique for Men's Daily Intense Hydrator Set, which costs £16 at Sephora and contains face wash, activated water-gel concentrate and - differing - shave cream, which is a must for men with beards.

For the dads who are conscious of their aging skin, Bulldog's Age Defence Skincare Routine Bundle is a perfect pressie - and it's down from £32.60 to £26. Containing an antioxidant complex made up of Rosemary, Echinacea and Vitamin E, the kit includes an eye roll on, moisturiser and serum. The Age Defence products are specially formulated to 'hydrate the skin, leaving it feeling smooth and nourished'. And, as the name suggests, the Age Defence kit can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles after four weeks.

While it is a little more expensive, the kit rivals Nivea's cheaper option of its Nivea Men Hyaluronic Anti-Ageing Bundle Set, which retails at £10. With only two products, instead of three, the Nivea set contains eye cream and a day moisturiser that help reduce tired eyes and well as appearance of wrinkles, all whilst providing protection from the sun.

The kit has had some rave reviews from men who are keen Bulldog fans, with one person hailing the set for leaving them with 'soft and smooth' skin. They said: "Perfect ! Been using bulldog products for a couple of years and never disappoints leave my face feeling soft and smooth with no irritation. This age defence Bulldog cream leaves my face looking younger and noticed big difference under the eyes, the ingredients must be perking wonders. Well recommend!"

One person said it was a 'must have for new dads' and wrote a five star review that read: "Great product for the skin routine. Must haves - New Dad and the roller is a great addition to help my dark eyes."

"Safe ingredients that don't irritate my skin, has a lovely silky creamy texture that absorbs well," said another Bulldog fan. "The cream is perfect and my girlfriend loves the smell of all my Bulldog products. I'm almost 60 years old and my skin feels healthier and cleaner than ever before. I recommend Bulldog to every man."

While the actual products and their results were loved by most shoppers, one particular three star reviewer shared their experience and said: "Absorbs well, not greasy but the smell is a bit clinical."

If the triple whammy set is a bit overwhelming, the moisturiser itself can be bought as a starter product and costs £9. The moisturiser has been clinically proven to reduce wrinkles and has been made using 96% natural origin ingredients, including a blend of essential oils and marine algae, which is 'an anti-ageing active derived from brown algae rich in antioxidants'.

Shoppers have loved the fragrance of this particular product as well as its lightweight, and non-greasy texture. One fan added: "The anti-ageing within the product is great at making my skin feel smooth and less 'old'."

Now, in any skincare bundle, we always spot a decent shower gel and so adding a top quality, nicely scented shower gel into the mix will most certainly earn brownie points. It's a staple product that, for Father's Day, can afford a bit of luxury. Costing £5, the Bulldog shower gel collection ranges from Ginger and Patchouli to Lemon and Bergamot, Vetiver and Black Pepper to Cedarwood annd Tonka Bean.
