Who says that guys can’t build their own nightly skincare routine? Explore the world of skincare for men and treat yourself to some of the best skin treats in Hong Kong.
To say that the 852 is obsessed with quality skincare products is an understatement. With the boom of Korean skincare, luxurious facial treatments, and not to mention some amazing local skincare brands, practising daily beauty regimens is definitely in vogue. However, in the world of beauty, it seems the fellas get left out sometimes. As most beauty products cater to the feminine population, it can be tougher for your average guy to begin building his own go-to roster of skincare products. If you’re a guy looking to learn the basics of grooming and self-care, or in search of products that are specially formulated for men’s skin, here are some popular picks for skincare for men in Hong Kong.
Skincare for men in Hong Kong: Best products to chase that glow
1. Jack Black
Unfortunately, taking care of your skin isn’t as easy as watching School of Rock over and over (although it doesn’t hurt). This Jack Black we’re talking about in skincare isn’t a comedy superstar, but rather one of the best-selling men’s skincare brands. Aiming to address the needs of the modern man in a beauty world mostly geared towards women, Jack Black specialises in no-frills skincare for men. Products like the Dual Defense Face Moisturizer 100% Mineral Sunscreen are the perfect first step for those less familiar with skincare, as it’s suitable for all skin types and offers oil-free moisturising with sun protection built-in! With helpful packages put together by the Jack Black team, collections like The Jetsetter are great for those seeking an effective combination of products. Additionally, the hairier fellas can keep their facial hair healthy and lucious with Jack Black’s Beard Wash and Beard Oil.

Believing that every man is made differently, Lab Series has been dedicated to understanding men’s specific skin needs and physiology since 1987. Designed for men and tested on men, rigorous research is put into creating products that perform well for unique elements of men’s skin. The Daily Rescue Water Lotion pampers freshly shaved faces while the All-In-One Multi-Action Face Wash is great for those searching for a simpler yet effective skincare routine. What’s more, we love that Lab Series keeps the environment in mind when designing its products, with recyclable cartons and refills available for certain products.
