When it comes to skincare, men tend to take a painfully lax approach.
If like us, you have a six-step night-time routine and are constantly reading up on the latest launches, nothing is more painful than watching your significant other take a three-dollar body soap and double it for a face wash and shampoo.
Or perhaps the person you’re shopping for has already dipped their toes into skincare and is ready to branch out into serums and masks?
Whatever the motivation, we firmly believe the best way to introduce reluctant loved ones to an effective skincare routine is by gifting them one—Father’s Day, birthdays, Christmas, they’re getting skincare gift sets.
Below, find the best skincare kits and gifts for men that will get results and see that pesky soap set aside.
