We get it, you're busy. Let's fast-forward to the good parts.
Look, we get it; a lot of guys didn’t grow up practicing the kind of skincare routines that keep us looking fresh and rested. As we pay more and attention to the preventable conditions — both inside and outdoors — that can impact our faces, there’s no better time to start moisturizing than right now.
Whether you’re looking for the kind of everyday moisturizer you can rub in and forget or an SPF-rich lotion that saves you from the sun, finding the best moisturizer means finding out what’s best for you. Here are the nine best facial moisturizers for the men out there who are ready to give a damn about their skin.
SHOP ALL MOISTURIZERSLightweight, oil-free, and quick-absorbing, our very own Grooming Lounge Mug Moisturizer improves your skin’s overall appearance and health on contact. Soft without the shine, our moisturizer uses nourishing vitamins, retinyl palmitate, sodium hyaluronate, and chamomile flower and apple fruit extract to enhance your skin's moisture levels, elasticity, softness, and long-term prospects.
When the sun is shining and working overtime, going outside without some type of SPF protection is gonna make you burn like a pizza. Jack Black Double-Duty Face Moisturizer SPF 2 offers solid UVA and UVB protection while using blue algae extract to keep your skin soft under the sun’s harmful rays. Blue algae extract is known to protect the skin against “UVB-induced photoaging” while chamomile extract and lavender oil leave your face smelling impossibly good.
It’s a myth that guys can grow out of oily skin… luckily, that’s one of the few parts of your teenage years that’ll follow you into adulthood. Urth Antioxidant Face Complex Oil-Free Moisturizer’s super-lightweight and fast-absorbing moisturizer hydrates the skin while eliminating greasiness and fighting against signs of aging. The bevy of botanical extracts gently resurfaces skin to minimize and refine pores while aloe soothes and cools. Top it all off with a jolt of caffeine to revive tired skin, and the result is a face that’s smooth, refreshed, brightened, and ready to conquer the day.
Whether you’re protecting yourself from the sun, wind, or razor, Ursa Major Fortifying Gel Moisturizer protects and smooths the face without any of the harmful petrochemicals or toxins found in common drugstore brands.
Finally, a moisturizing sunscreen you don’t have to spend the whole day reapplying. Jack Black Oil-Free Sun Guard SPF 4 offers sweat and water-resistant protection from the sun with a vitamin-enriched formula that lasts up to 80 minutes even in the most intense conditions. This non-greasy, oil-free formula instantly absorbs into the skin quickly and gives you protection without any greasy residue.
Connecting the dots between a moisturizer and luxury may not be the easiest thing for skincare beginners, making Lab Series Energizing Face Lotion something you gotta feel to believe. Perfect for gents with normal-to-oily skin, this great-smelling moisturizer goes on super light and instantly energizes skin, increasing circulation and combating dullness.
Wrinkles are an inconvenient part of life as normal as taxes or leg cramps. Malin + Goetz Advanced Renewal Cream is backed by advanced skincare technology to help you turn back the clock and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. A lipid complex, a hydrating fruit complex, and medicinal herbs increase the skin’s water retention and elasticity while stimulating collagen production, resulting in improved skin texture and firmness. Basically, sounds like a lot of science mumbo jumbo - but it smells great and it will make you look and feel younger, trust us.
