No one thinks this is a 20 year old. You just look your age but with plastic skin

I have skin like that and I'm 40. Been doing a care routine since I was in my early 20s. I don't understand how men most think that's hard. You literally wash your face and put moisturizer on it 2x a day.
Buds of mine teased me for it but they look like old men now and my GF is 13 years younger than me.

mostly a woman thing
gay men follow it because men skincare advice is really written by a woman thinking all skin should look like dewy plastic

This, same age, people think i'm 27, believe me or not, like Halle Berry or whoever.
Up to age 35 it was just moistirizing and sunscreen (+wearing a baseball cap), and later i added hyaluronic acid and vitamin serum. Basic routine.
Also, it's 99% about your health, i weight the same than when i was 20 and i prioritize health and low stress (it also mean achieving less).

It's for women trying to hold onto their youth and more importantly the attention they crave from men.

this is going to be a lame post because I don't want my fucking face on the innernet, but actually thinking about skin care has changed my life. I've always been acne-ish (even beyond my 20s) dry, irritated all winter, wrinkly as the years go on, sundamaged, etc.

One day several years ago I got rough patches on my cheeks from so much sun, and decided I needed to wear sunscreen. The normal sunscreen gave me acne. So I got a face one for more money, acne. I eventually realised I should just pay top dollar for the premium Clinique shit, and holy fuck. Not only is it amazing sunscreen, I realised that it being a moisturizer was making my skin so much healthier. I started buying more clinique shit and I am so much happier with myself because if you feel like you look your best you just have more confidence and pride in your self care day to day. Now my daily routine is:
>acne soap in the shower in the morning
>$$$ moisturizer for my face and around eyes (SPF 28 if spending the day outdoors, otherwise just a normal one)
>$$ moisturizer for my throat and neck
>clearasil pads to clean my face at night
>$$$$ night moisturizer for face
>$$ moisturizer for throat and neck
>repeat

yes the stuff costs at lot but then it lasts me at leat 6 months, so really it costs a like $0.50 a day for all this. Nobody wants to look greasy or shiny or plastic or preened, you just want to look healthy. You can buy cheap stuff and you'll still be happy with it, just make sure it won't clog you up or make you look like your glowing like a doll.

No, I don't look anything like a 20yr old but I look a lot better than most dudes my age who don't care

You punch a stamp with very tiny needles on your face. It supposedly helps to heal acne scars.

interesting. I just did a very quick google and an alternative is dermabrasion and I do use a sandy exfoliating scrub once every week or two. I might stick with that and not worry about microneedles. we'll see, I tend to buy whacky shit when I'm drunk, it could happen

That's like asking what's the point of lifting with a pic of a roided monster. Just because tret makes you look like a plastic doll doesn't mean every skincare product will make you look like a resident of the uncanny valley. Some people use the wrong products because they get overly zealous about skincare. No product will make you look like a 20 year old forever but some people age better than others and you can be part of that group if you have the right routine.
