Cutting It Close
Men often take skin care for granted and rely on a bar of Irish Spring and a dab of Old Spice for aftershave. But men’s skin needs pampering, too, and that doesn’t mean dipping into the wife’s medicine cabinet. They need products formulated specifically for men’s skin. Don’t be intimidated. The packaging might be fancy and the names seductive, but these products all have the same purpose — targeting men’s skin needs and making them feel like a guy.
