Skincare for Men

I think I’ve always placed guys on a pedestal. They’re very attractive to me, so I don’t even care what’s on their faces most of the time. However, I do have some come to me for skincare advice (shyly at first, because some people think skincare is for women only, which is not true), because believe it or not, they do actually care.

Current Skincare Routine


As most of anyone reading this will know, I’m studying abroad for a whole year in Europe. However, between my summer and fall programs, I’ve had a bit of time to go traveling. I’ve been backpacking, so I’ve had to pack extremely light in order to not be weighed down. Nevertheless, I’m still a huge beauty addict, and it would be too difficult to not pack my skincare essentials. I’ve gotten my summer routine down to what I think is necessary and effective. I have oily skin, and this has been helping me keep my skin clear and my oil under control.

Makeup Products I would Repurchase (and Products I would try out)

I like to try new things. Who doesn't? However, there are some staples I keep going back to that I know work for me.

As I was packing for France, I kind of got to thinking... What if I lost my luggage (and therefore all of my makeup, save my Z-Palette I have at home with my not as easily wearable eyeshadows) and had to start from scratch? What would I buy to replenish?
