While we’ve been on our skin-care game since middle school, most of the guys in our life can’t say the same. Many of them only recently started using moisturizer and daily SPF (what?!), but that doesn’t stop them from curiously rifling through our stash of products in the bathroom. Thankfully for their complexion, they’ve developed a skin-care interest of their own. What are they actually buying? We asked the men in our office to weigh in.

Kiehl’s Daily Reviving Concentrate
“I first got involved with skin care when I discovered the L'Oréal store downstairs (we share an office building with L'Oréal HQ). Prior, I had only ever really used a moisturizer, but my skin would still get ashy. Three drops of this serum covers my whole face, and it’s helped so much with hydration.” —Tyler
Ursa Major Golden Hour Recovery Cream
“My AP English teacher’s life advice was, ‘You have to moisturize! It's very dry out there.’ Although it was a joke (at least I think so), I started using facial products after that. I love using this recovery cream from Ursa Major before bed to seal in hydration.” —Phil
