Looking specifically for men but I’m open to all opinions. I’ve been doing some experimenting over the last 2 and a bit years, trying to find what works best for me. I’d love to get some opinions on what has worked for others.

stuff I’ve tried:

  • L'Oréal Men Expert (no complaints)
  • Bull Dog (not the biggest fan)
  • Neutrogena (no complaints either)
  • SkinCeuticals (borrowed from my partner who got some as a gift)

I’m in Europe if it helps

I just got some moisturizer with Retinol to firm my skin up a bit. Seems to be working.

Retinol can work wonders. Just two things: you probably don’t need it before turning 30, and you should stay out of the sun or wear good sunscreen if you can’t, when you have recently used it. I only apply it once a week in the evening.

Yeah, I'm 41. You probably wouldn't think I need it looking at me, but I've lost some weight, and it's all a bit looser than I'd like. Hoping this will tighten it up some. I live in Arizona and didn't know that about the sun, so thanks for the tip :)
