" Why, yes, there are plenty of perfectly normal, non-serial-killer men who care about the latest in dermatological innovations. Men&amp;#039;s skin care is one of the largest growth areas in the grooming market. But in a bull market, there&amp;#039;s always a lot of bull. The Esquire maintenance team consulted three dermatologists and performed our own tests to determine which are worth trying. 1.\u00A0Retinol  Retin-A is one of the only FDA-approved antiwrinkle creams. But Retin-A is intense, so you&amp;#039;ll probably want to stick to the over-the-counter version, retinol, like \u00A0SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0 ($63). Start by using it twice a week until your skin adjusts or else you&amp;#039;ll wake up feeling like you slept on a jellyfish.  2.\u00A0Eye cream  The eyes are often the first area of our body that makes us start to look old and tired. That&amp;#039;s why more men are using eye creams, like Acqua di Parma Collezione Barbiere Revitalizing Eye Treatment\u00A0($60). It immediately hydrates and plumps up the area around the eye. It also has antioxidants, which can stabilize blood vessels, reduce darkening, and improve the look of your eyes over time. Daily use prevents you from looking like you&amp;#039;re perpetually hungover. 3.\u00A0Antiaging cream  Guys are lazy \u2014 at least this guy is. I won&amp;#039;t add 30 minutes to my morning regimen, and Lab Series gets that. Its Age Rescue+Water-Charged gel cream ($5) has all the skin pepping that you&amp;#039;ll find in some women&amp;#039;s creams \u2014 stimulating cell turnover and providing far more moisturization than typical lotions\u2014but it&amp;#039;s way easier to use. You just slap it on and it dries like water.  4.\u00A0Pore refinement  Pores are actually a bigger concern for men than for women \u2014 or they should be. We have larger oil glands and a higher concentration of them. Over time, our pores get bigger, dulling our complexion. You can minimize them with Clinique Pore Refining Solutions correcting serum ($45).  5.\u00A0Clay mask  You might think masks are emasculating. But if it feels good and makes your skin look good, who the hell cares? Clay masks, like Baxter of California&amp;#039;s ($18), can be especially helpful for men with oily skin, since they have a mattifying effect.  6.\u00A0Cleansing brush  Pollution builds up on your skin, generating free radicals, which age your skin faster. Washing with your hands might not be enough, and scrubbing with an abrasive washcloth can create microtears. But an electric brush like the Clinique Sonic System purifying cleansing brush ($90) is thorough yet gentle. And it feels incredibly satisfying after a long day of polluting your face.
