No words. REMINDER to not mommy or play the role of a dermatologist for your man.

I'm a member of various skincare reddit's and most of them have these rules like we do. You have to read the handbook first, some questions are only for the Weekly Q&A, etc.

It's etiquette to already figure out a basic routine for yourself and only ask for additional advice or feedback on your routine. You're not supposed to be like: this is my skintype, make me a routine.

All the men (and I mean literally all of them) come to these Reddit's, post a picture of their severe acne (sometimes don't even bother to figure out what kind of skintype they have) and expect us to come up with a routine. They're even annoyed when some of the products are not instantly 'working'.

They're so lazy and expect the women on there (because men only come there to get advice, not give it) to do all the mental work for them. It annoys the crap out of me.

Men who care about their skin already have a skincare routine.

I agree with this guy- "skincare" and "skin health" should absolutely be normalized for men. The stigma that it's feminine/unmanly to buy face wash needs to die- but men should be the ones doing the work, not women. The only ones mocking men for having an interest in skincare... are other men.

I agree

I studied long enough to teach men the basics of a routine for free. No more. They don't even try to improve! I really don't understand how there are men who are afraid to do a basic skin care routine. I mean that their skin is so thick and it can be worke so easily. I am sorry that they let time pass and remember late. Facial hygiene is a basic right and duty too ...
