Where to buy skin care products for cheap?

I only shop online; It is my own personal philosophy that I shouldn't fund local stores in my hometown, nor finance the large chains. I buy in my own comfort, and constantly testing online fragrance and skin-care stores.

FragranceX, is a great shop for that matter.
They indeed don't offer that many skincare products for men, but I sometimes use female-targeted products, so I'm OK with it :)
Anyhow, they ship internationally for over 130 countries, with free shipping for larger orders, and offer a daily deal in their website.
They are good to go as far as I concern and I heard only good things about them.

A second option would be Amazon - for ease of use, I have listed all the suggested products here in Amazon. I don't have to sell Amazon really because everyone knows it - it is indeed the world's largest online store, with flawless reputation and competitive pricing.

Zenmed is another great option. Superb site, excellent products.

I am also very fond of philosophy - a world leader in skin care that has superb recognition and tons of positive reviews over the internet; a world known suppliers of skin care, that has excellent prices and very good, responsive, support team.

The list

How did I compose this list? I only listed products I have personally tried or someone tried them for me and helped me out with the review of that product. I tried to put everything into consideration - like uniqueness of product, short term effect, long term effect, overall quality and of course, pricing (according to Amazon.com).

Loreal Mens Expert Power Clean

For dry skin or pre-shave

For $4.5 this is nothing short of an exceptional product. For anyone like me who has been dealing with tight and dry skin (so tight I even suffered stretch marks under my armpits) - this product is again, a must-have. It keeps your skin moist and nice throughout the day, and could be very useful when putting on before a shave. If you don't put anything on your skin before you shave, please do use this product for that. Don't scar yourself during shave, and that is bound to happen if you don't make the proper preparations.

Nivea for Men

A must for every men

A great cure for acne. pimples or any kind of skin problem that should work within a matter of weeks (you should see an immidiate relief very soon though, but the full effect comes over time).

This is not the only use of that great face scrub though - I suggest any men to use it every night before the skin looks significantly better afterwards. If there's -1- product I'd have to choose for a desert island - that would be it.

Nivea lip care

We need to take care of lips as well!

If you suffer from dryness in your lips like almost any other American (else than the bastards who are lucky enough to live in moist places like Cali), you should be using this product. It doesn't leave any shine in your lips, and it's extremely helpful for any lip condition.

A luxury treatment

Vitaman by Vitaman - Groomimg Face Scrub 1for men is a great Aqua water aloe barbadensis based product. It helps you remove dead skin and scrub out the old to be replaced by the new. If you wish to maintain a young & fresh looks, this might the product you were looking for. Bear in mind it's not cheap compared to other product on this list but it's a proven success.

Anthony Sport for Men Hand Cream

Take care of your wrinkles

Putting a hand cream is something most men don't do but they should. Some wrinkles are OK, but having a rough skin is not good for anyone and interferes with your daily life (itching, scratching and annoying - doesn't it).
The Anthony sport hand cream will take care of that and it's 7$ only in Amazon.com.

Balla powder

Keep 'em dry

Guys, don't be too embrassed to try this on. This is an awesome product that helps you maintain an OK scent down there and keep everything dry. Do it before you go on a date and you won't regret it.

Neutrogena Triple Protect Face Lotion for Men, SPF 20, 1.7 Ounce (Pack of 2)

This product contains things like Alcohol,Phosphate, Bisabolol, and Xanthan Gum (and fragrance of course). Those are all very potent and powerful skin cures combined together to provide an overall close-to-perfection product. It helps defends aging, as well as cuts and wounds (superficial ones of course). It's not oily, and comfortable to use. The scent is manly.

Overall this is a great solution to keep away from nature's defects and heal existing problems with your skin.

A great combo for one product.

Skin care product tips

I currently don't have the time to lay out a complete guide in regards to how to choose your product, how to take care of your skin in general and how significant it is for one's total image to have soft and clear skin. You can read this info all around the internet.

I am only going to lay out one very important advice that deals with testing a product:
When using a product (hopefuly, one from my list), you have to test it before you determine if it's good for your needs. You need to decide, by yourself, what are you trying to achieve and keep an important fact in mind - no product is a magic product. If you want to have the complete package of clear, soft and nice skin - please consider usage of multiple products.

This advice, however, is not valid when TESTING a product. Then, you have to use this product for 14 days or so and monitor the effect on a daily basis without mixing other products in that test. Usually, a product that has mild or low effect on the first use will not askew you with long term results, but you have to try it over and over before you conclude.

Should men use skin care products

Some say men should remain connected with their ancestors and there really ain't much need for them to mess around with skincare care. Some say this is a primitive way of thinking. What do you reckon?

No; They should be providing their families and watch football. C'est tout.
