I have oily skin and was wondering if anyone knew any skin care out there that could keep my face looking clean and keep my skin looking nice. I am talking about some of the more expensive brands out there. (not stuff you can find at wal-mart)
Does anyone know any good skin care for men that keeps the face refreshed, clean, and soft?
It’s not specifically for guys but, try Mary-Kay teen face cleaner: Velocity.

‘Works like a charm for me.
Does anyone know any good skin care for men that keeps the face refreshed, clean, and soft?
Clinique has a skin care line for men.
Reply:Go to your mall (Nordstrom’s) and find the Clinique counter. They have a lot of good quality skin care items and they are trained to know what to give you. Their products don’t have any kind of scent either so you won’t smell like a girl.

If that doesn’t work you may want to see a Dermatologist and ask what they think is best.
Reply:Yes, the products that you’ll find at www.romancing-the-soap.com

It’s a website owned by a medical practitioner. I bought several skin care products and they’re fantastic, nothing’s ever worked this well. 100% money back guarantee, they will arrive with personalized advice from the doc – IF you tell what is troubling your skin, if anything. I’m sure you’ll be very pleased with the service, products and the information on that website.
