The best soaps for men’s oily skin

LovelySkin LUXE Salicylic Face and Body Wash

If your oily skin often results in acne on your face as well as your body, this cleanser will make an excellent addition to your daily shower regimen. “The active ingredient is 2% salicylic acid, which works by dissolving the oil and debris clogging pores that can lead to breakouts on your face, chest, back or other areas,” says board-certified dermatologist and LovelySkin CEO Dr. Joel Schlessinger. The addition of coconut oil, aloe juice and glycerin also helps leave your skin feeling hydrated and soft, never tight and dry.

ELEMIS Deep Cleanse Facial Wash

This facial cleanser boasts a cooling tingle and minty scent thanks to peppermint and spearmint extracts, which also help keep skin clean and clear by fighting acne-causing bacteria. If you shave your face, you’ll also appreciate that this cleanser works double-duty by helping prevent razor burn with English oak bark extract, which has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties to help soothe irritated skin.

The best men's face toner for oily skin

NassifMD Dermaceuticals Aftershave/Toner for Men

Using a toner is a great way to help keep your oily skin in balance. This facial toner works well after shaving as it helps restore skin with a trio of active ingredients that NassifMD calls the A.S.E. Complex—abermat, Sepitonic™ M3 and EpidermosilⓇ—to help balance oily skin while also keeping it hydrated and moisturized. Abermat is a unique marine-derived mattifier, so applying this toner in the morning can help control shine on your face all day long.

The best men's face moisturizers for oily skin

EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen - Untinted

For daytime, EltaMD has one of the best men’s face moisturizers for oily skin because of its combination of broad-spectrum sun protection and non-comedogenic formula that won’t block pores or irritate acne. It protects your sun from UVA and UVB rays with octinoxate and transparent zinc oxide (so it doesn’t leave a white cast) while hyaluronic acid helps keep your skin hydrated and niacinamide works to help prevent acne and soothe any inflammation from active breakouts.

LovelySkin LUXE Mattifying Antioxidant Moisturizer

For a standalone moisturizer without SPF, we recommend this facial moisturizer for men with oily skin. It contains afaLUXE, a dermatologist-developed blend of amino-based filaggrin antioxidants, Dead Sea minerals and vitamin C to help gently exfoliate skin while strengthening the moisture barrier. It also has a mattifying finish to help control shine throughout the day.

Bonus: A skin-improving boost

Babor Men Instant Energy Ampoules

Adding a face treatment into your routine is a wonderful way for men to manage oily skin. This 7-day treatment consists of a concentrated face serum packaged in individual pre-portioned ampoules to help preserve the active ingredients. The formula contains vitamin C and a B5 complex to help improve your skin’s texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines. It also contains Babor’s proprietary TAUREC Complex, which helps fortify the skin against free radical damage.
