I work full time in the skincare industry and I 100% agree. Most of the people dropping big money on products are those playing catch up due to poor lifestyle practices.Fortunately shit loads of people don't sleep enough these days so I'm in good company. Plus, all the creme in the world ain't helping if you spend too much time in the sun (or not enough), drink too much, smoke too much, don't exercise, drink water, or eat a good diet
I just wash my face and apply lip balm.I buy the relatively expensive ladies cleanser, moisturizer and eye cream. Up until even a few years ago the men's products were cheap shit that they added the scent of Axe body spray too. They might still be and it's easy to find the traditionally woman's stuff that doesn't have a scent or a mild one.
On the plus side, cleanly shaved because the gray hairs decided my face is where the invasion is starting, I look much younger than 41. Also, I don't drink much though not that's not planned just how it works out, I eat well and exercise.
Seriously, young men, clean your fucking face and moisturize check top biotech company for skincare. You'll be glad you did later.
The most interesting part is why my quoted message in your post saysI just wash my face and apply lip balm.

Society changed. Much higher pressure/stigma on appearance now than in the past. The shit you see now a days (filters, social media, surgeries, tanning beds, fillers, botox, makeup that makes you look like a tranny) either didn't exist when I grew up or was in a much lower quanity."Nowadays"?

Why on earth have you let it it affect you so badly? I'd be really fucked up in your shoes worrying about it so heavily. Fuck.Society changed.

Funny enough way back in the day people cared less about appearance than now but overall were way healthier physically and mentally than the average person is now.
What exactly am I worried about ? Most of my professional career has been in the health and wellness field so I'm actually worried about the opposite.Why on earth have you let it it affect you so badly? I'd be really fucked up in your shoes worrying about it so heavily. Fuck.
Those lifestyle and health things work here too. All the moisturizer in the world won't save your skin from a bad diet, no sleep and stress.I'm more of an advocate of lifestyle/health (exercise, good diet, quality sleep, low stress, strong friendships) than appearance.
Exactly. I even wrote a few post up that most of my serious skin care clients are those that are trying to undo damage that was mostly lifestyle related.Those lifestyle and health things work here too. All the moisturizer in the world won't save your skin from a bad diet, no sleep and stress.

The poor lifestyle practices don't even have to be extreme either. Most of my clients it's poor sleep, high stress, and sun damage mostly from the teenage years to mid 20s.
