Is it acceptable or normal for a man to use skin care products?

[Anonymous]

I work under the sun for long hours during the day. I use all protection tools to cover my face and arms, yet the sun has left a mark on my skin, especially my face. Now I started using some skin care products to treat the effects of the sun. I was born and raised in a town and because of my background that skin care is for women only, I find it weird that I started using it. Do you think it is normal for a man to care for or use skin care products?

I use lip balm skin moisturizers, i did notice some guys looking with jugmental eyes at me thinking im gay, but thats all to it after that they fuked off and went live their own lives. (When u do it public places.)
To look good takes effort. Be lazy about it and you will look lazy.

That's what I was trying to say, I'm not gay, I'm just trying to treat the pigmentation that the sun left on my skin. I guess I missed understanding the healthful part.

I would even go ahead and research some sunscreen if i was you as you seem to have a lot of sun exposure. Might help not to get burned as much

What does gender have to do with how you treat your skin?

[Asker]

As I said before, because I grew up and lived in the country, I find this a bit girly girl. It's not that big deal anymore, I use it to treat the pigmentation that the sun left on my skin. I think I needed to change that concept and the way I deal with it.

I can't even imagine having such a fragile masculinity that I'd be worried people might think I'm "girly" for taking care of my skin however I want.

Yes i think its hot when guys care about their skin! I've been forcing my man to start at least using cerave cleanser and sunscreen! Bare minimum for me lol

Men please don't be afraid to use beauty products. It dosent make you less masculine. You will look more attractive. Net good do it

Very acceptable. I don't judge a man for taking care of his skin that way

[Jadethedream]

It’s normal it’s great to look after your skin not many blokes do. Lot of girls like it

It’s the largest organ. It’s normal to take care of it.

[FilmGuy93]

Yeah... why would that ever be a problem?

[Asker]

Kinda wired looking at myself in the mirror while putting products on my face.

[FilmGuy93]

Well it's only you in the mirror. You're going to have to address this problem within yourself.

I don’t see anything wrong with it tbh.
