Guy seeking skincare advice

[KeenTraveller]

First of all, I'm a guy. Been kicking around for 21 years and for the most of that time I've been active in tons of sports/activities/razor blade gouging from shaving mistakes (we've all done it!). I travel a lot so my skin takes a battering from that too. Basically, my skin has had a pritty tough time and for a lot of time I have neglected its care. I don't have spots but I do have a few blackheads. If I remember right, my last girlfriend was using TCP or Tea Tree Oil on spots/ect.. so I have started doing that sparingly and have noticed differences very quickly. Anyway, onto the actual question.  

I'm trying to find a good daily skin care regime. I've came across tons on the internet but they're all either using 5 £40 bottles of stuffs or all womens skincare; the mens skincare is like:

1- Wash your face

2- Moisturise

3- Don't forget to wash your face again

And I'm reading this thinking 'DUHHH!'.

When I put on moisturizer my face goes glossy, looks oily and all shiny. When I don't put anything on my skin it becomes very dry. Everyday I have redness around my eyes, no puffiness just red. Just from been a keen traveller I'm still somewhat lightly tanned from the summer-time, I like been tanned. However, when I go outside my tan seems to vanish and I start turning pale.

I want to be able to look after myself a lot better than I have been however I don't know what things to buy in order to look after my skin properly. I don't want to put moisuriser on my face which will then just look like I've put shine polish all over my face. Also, I'd also like to find a way of not turning as white as a potato anytime I go outside. My face had never tanned properly compared to the rest of my body.

Any advice, shoot it my way.

I suggest you have a look at products made from the Meriance. It contains ingredients to act as anti wrinkle and anti aging cream, at the same time stimulates skin regeneration and replenish daily moisture loss. Anti-Aging Collagen Cream Meriance is rich in Amino Acids and minerals, stimulating skin rejuvenation with the effect of a smooth, soft and healthy skin.

Moisturize is particularly essential in case you have dry skin. Skin dryness can lead to patches and breaks in it along with causing peeling of the skin. For this, you should drink plenty of water on regular basis and can think of applying herbal based creams.

What moisturizer are you using?

You definitely need to check out this product - http://www.ejones.mynucerity.biz/nuuk/products/skincerity/product-information/

There are tons of male reviews and before and after pictures here - www.facebook.com/newyouuk

It is not a cream or moituriser- it's a night-time breathable mask, that is clear. No-one need ever know you're using it /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Essie Button on YouTube has a recent video called Aslan's Skincare Routine where her boyfriend discusses what he uses for his face. I found it very informative, although I am not a guy.

I am using Jarvis Cream & Serum. It is complete solution of skin problems; really different from other products. It is a cream developed to improve skin’s immune system. And now I am happy that I have perfect solution of skin problems.
