Having used *loads* of different moisturisers, and I am utterly convinced that any basic boutique brand moisturiser with an SPF rating will give you everything you need as guys.

It is a little different for girls as we have to consider make-up application on top, so choice of moisturiser is based on other factors in addition to the core benefits of skin care.

As has already been mentioned, Clinique for men, Nivea for men and Olay are terrific products. Beware of going too cheap though and avoid some of the bargain brands as I know of (myself included) some people who have had reactions from supermarket own brands.

There is mileage in finding one you like, as some cam make your skin feel greasy depending on your skin type.

None of the products, not even Crème De La Mer, will make your skin younger but they can make it appear younger and the SPF factor will help reduce further sun damage.

Top tip: a mild facial scrub once a week or so will really help with a healthy glow, but that might be a bit "metrosexual" for some guys ;)

Hope this helps,

Whenever I apply any of these fancy creams,I end up with acne.I am the sort of person who naturally sweats a lot and these creams just clog up the pores resulting in acne formation.

Is it overkill for a man in hes twenties to use:

-Daily facewash morning, This one i cant see nothing wrong with
-Daily moisterizer after morningwash and shower, any point? Maybe only after shower? My face can get a bit dry after shower

-Weekly face scrub, 1 - 2 times a week. I think this chould be good, atleast for me. Got kinda bad skin on my face
-Weekly mask. Oh, yeah. I mean the mask/dirt you put on your face for 10 min or smt then wash away. Possibly with some kind of fruit in your eyes(pickles? The green thing) and some soft music on. Too much for a guy to do? I got oily skin with huge pores

Ive bin looking at mainly the Anthony series and men-u Facial Moisturiser Lift for moisteriser at it sounds like it is good as aftershave too and i shave after a shower. Anyone here using something regulary and see a difference?

I think its fine if you have an oily skin as it will hardly stay dry for a long time and thereby preventing skin damage even after using all the above.
