Hi, newcomer here. Just wanna know which brand/product are more suitable for guy's skin.
Currently i'm using a range of Dermalogica products and last month when i'm in korea touring, i bought their UGBang products back to try so now i mix and match both dermalogica + UGBang product together.  |

I am interested in a line for men too. I'm trying to find a one for my hubby. I know he won't research it on his own  . Any input would be great. |

My sense is that most products for women, would also be good for men. I am thinking the exception might be a product that contains actives like phytoestrogen, soy isoflavones etc.
I think a man would definitely benefit from sunscreen, Vitamin C, retin A just as women. I believe the packaging would be important for a man (he would not want to use a pink flowered container for example), and also maybe a man would prefer a fragrance free product.
As far as recommending lines, I have never researched lines for men so I don't know what to recommend ! |

L'Oréal,Lancome,Clarins etc. all have product line for men.
I think some anti-aging products for women are not suitalbe for men,since there are hormone in them. Others(like moisturizing products) for women are also suitalbe for men. |

Just saw this, and would really say that even though your a guy, you need to determine what is your skin challenges before looking solely at products for men. A lot of "mens" products contain unnecessary ingredients in them (to colour the product, or add an aroma etc) to fool men into thinking they are doing something right, but many times, its purely superficial. That said, not all women's products are sutiable for men (as the reasons mentioned above), but there are some good ones out there that are pure and simple without unnecessary ingredients which you may benefit from depending on your skintype etc.
The stuff of Men's skincare range that are often oversold is that of moisturising and facial washes, but there are some good men's stuff out there like shaving creams/foams/gels etc that are worth exploring. |

| My boyfriend has been using Vichy Homme products for about two months now and he's really content with the line. |

| Clinique, Biotherm, Shiseido all has decent mens line. although i know it's not necessary to choose products specifically labeled as men for DH, somehow he feels better if he sees the manly packaging. |

| My guy is sharing my skin care products. I feel there's no too much difference between boys and girls in skin. It's just my opinion. He usually don't care too much about his skin like girls do. Sometimes, even use my eyelash curler.lol |
