Ladies, can u recommend a sunblock that your boyfriends/husbands actually love using? Without complaining that it is too greasy or that it makes them look like they are having a cream on their face??
P.S.: may be, someone can also share the names of anti-aging products that their men LOVE using.
Thank you! |

I Love Biotherm Anti Wrinkle Sun Cream SPF 30 and Paula's Choice Pure Mineral Sunscreen SPF 15. Both have an excellent finish, don't feel heavy and stay matte on me all day.
The Biotherm one is a European formula but I believe it's available in Canada too. |

Hi RussianSunshine,
I know a few have been quite happy with the Burnout Sunscreen. There is a thread link here.

I know Bethany is giving it a trial, just received her order recently so I am sure we will have a review soon. I placed my order today and as soon as I get a chance to try it out I will also post my results/impression of it.

For the past several years, DH has applied Alba Botanica Sunscreen SPF 30 Natural Lavender every morning - he's such a creature of habit he gets testy if the tube gets low & there's not a back-up on hand, heaven forbid if he needs to temporarily substitute a different product. It is not greasy and dries clear - initially does have a faint lavender fragrance but it's nice, calming. Regarding anti-aging, he would not take any measures himself, but after his nightly shower he thoroughly enjoys being treated - he sits back at the kitchen counter while I swipe on toner & massage in the night cream (whatever I have on hand, he has great skin & nothing irritates) - then dab a spot of Nadinola on his one age spot, which has now all but vanished. |

Has anyone tried Clarins skincare for men?
DarkMoon, I'll definetly wait for your review!
Josh, Biotherm sounds like a good option, but may be there is a difference between a european formulation and canadian, because I tried it on my hand and it looked very oily.
mogulicious, my boyfriend does not mind being pampered as well, but he only wants skincare products that are specifically for men, he thinks that products for women can make his boobs grow |

I must have a weird ex-bf.
He actually liked all the fruity smelling soaps.
And even used toner because his mother told him it was good (she sold some skincare line..can't remember now).
Maybe the Colorscience clear powder?
that feels like nothing on your face.
I just find it funny how some guys they really like all the nice soaps, hair stuff
And then some people are totally afraid of that |

Ah.... so that explains the man-boobs! LOL
There may be a difference in the formulas, though I was led to believe they were the same. The SPF 50 is greasy, the 30 isn't, though everyones skin can of course look (and react) differently.
I have tried some of the Clarins Men products but found the fragrance overpowering and lingering. I don't like that, it interferes with the EDT I'm wearing. My partner didn't like it either. Fragrances are a very individual preference though so he may like them. Just know that the products are really very mediocre. |

My 2 cents I wish with skin care for both men and women they would just leave the fragrance out! Facial products especially! But that's just me. |
