The One-Step Upgrade

Why You'll Love It

A lightweight antioxidant moisturizer for men that hydrates, controls shine and refines the look of skin in one step.

Replaces a separate serum and moisturizer, so a full routine is just cleanse, Solo and sunscreen.

Less Shine

Reduces skin surface sebum levels for a less oily-looking complexion through the day.

Antioxidant Defense

A broad antioxidant blend, including vitamin C and E, ergothioneine and ectoin, helps skin stay resilient to daily stressors.

Post-Shave Comfort

Prickly pear and lotus extracts calm and hydrate, and the gel-cream won't sting or cling to facial hair.

Built for Men's Skin

Key Ingredients

Prickly Pear Extract

Soothe & Hydrate

Opuntia ficus-indica (prickly pear) stem extract soothes and hydrates the skin, which is especially welcome after shaving.

Shine Control

Blue Lotus & Sacred Lotus

Nymphaea caerulea and Nelumbo nucifera flower extracts help skin look more luminous while reducing the appearance of oiliness.

Antioxidant Defense

Vitamin C, Vitamin E & Ectoin

Aminopropyl ascorbyl phosphate, a patented vitamin C, joins vitamin E (tocopherol), while ectoin and hydroxyectoin help defend skin against pollutants and everyday environmental stress.

Need to Know

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before choosing, using, and caring for your skin with Purity products.

Explore Help Center

Does "Defense" mean it has SPF?

No. Solo Hydrating Defense MEN contains antioxidants, not sunscreen filters. skinbetter recommends following it with a sunbetter sunscreen during the day, so your full morning routine is cleanser, Solo, then SPF.

Can I apply it right after shaving?

Yes. It is designed to go on after shaving. The calming, hydrating gel-cream absorbs quickly, won't cling to facial hair and won't sting freshly shaved skin.

Will it make oily skin feel greasy?

No. It is lightweight and is formulated to reduce skin surface sebum levels, so skin looks less oily, not more. It is a good fit for men who skip moisturizer because most feel too heavy.

Do I still need a separate serum or moisturizer?

For most men, no. Solo is an all-in-one, once-daily step that hydrates and delivers antioxidant care together. If you want to do more, skinbetter suggests adding AlphaRet Overnight Cream in the evening for lines and texture.

How soon will I see results?

Hydration and a less shiny look are noticeable right away. In skinbetter's dermatologist-led clinical trial, 22 men used it once daily and were photographed at 4, 8 and 12 weeks, showing visible improvement in pores, tone, texture and redness over that time.

Can women use it?

It was formulated and tested with men's skin and shaving in mind, but anyone with oily skin, visible pores or redness can use it. For women, skinbetter's Alto Defense Serum and Trio moisturizers are the closest equivalents, and our providers are happy to help you choose.
