Men's Beauty Routines for Every Skin Type

All the men I know are interested in my beauty products. When my brother comes to visit he’s always hovering around my bath to look for a new fancy shampoo or hair product. My husband started using Estée Lauder’s Advanced Night Repair because of me. My dad is now a proud owner of Kiehls’ Ultra Facial Cream after I got him his first jar. Boys care about their skin as much as we do but the poor babies are so ignored by cosmetic companies that all they have is vile smelling, badly packaged stuff that I would use as detergent. But really there’s no such thing as women only cosmetics. In fact the cosmetics that women use have far better formulations than men’s products. So here’s my list of products for men according to skin type: 

If your skin is oily and acne prone...
DAY: 
Step 1: Kiehl’s Rare Earth Cleanser
Step 2: Obagi Professional C Serum 20% (not more than 5-6 drops)
Step 3: Olay Total Effects Moisturiser (only if you need moisture)
Step 4: Clinique Mineral Sunscreen Fluid for Face SPF 30

NIGHT:
Step 1: Kiehl’s Rare Earth Cleanser
Step 2: Peter Thomas Roth Max Complexion Correction Pads (please use one pad only thrice a week, and definitely wear sunscreen in the day if using this. Also if you shave at night use it BEFORE not after you shave.)
Step 3: Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair (not more than 3-4 drops)
Step 4: Olay Total Effects Moisturiser (only if needed)

If your skin is normal or combination...
DAY:
Step 1: Cetaphil Cleansing Lotion
Step 2: Obagi Professional C Serum 20%
Step 3: Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Moisturiser
Step 4: La Roche Posay Anthelios 30 Cooling Water Lotion 

NIGHT:
Step 1: Cetaphil Cleansing Lotion
Step 2: Peter Thomas Roth Max Complexion Correction Pads (please use one pad only thrice a week, and definitely wear sunscreen in the day if using this. Also if you shave at night use it BEFORE not after you shave.)
Step 3: Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Moisturiser
Step 4: Clarins Blue Orchid Face Treatment Oil (3-4 drops, you can either mix into the moisturiser and apply or massage it in after the moisturiser)

If your skin is dry and dehydrated...
DAY:
Step 1: Avène Gentle Milk Cleanser
Step2: Obagi Professional C Serum 15%
Step 3: Purearth Wild Rose & Seabuck Cream (don’t worry, it looks manly even if it has rose in it…doesn’t smell rosy too.)
Step 4: Clinique Super City Block SPF 30+

NIGHT:
Step 1: Avène Gentle Milk Cleanser
Step 2: Peter Thomas Roth Max Complexion Correction Pads (please use one pad only thrice a week, and definitely wear sunscreen in the day if using this. Also if you shave at night use it BEFORE not after you shave.)
