If you have some strange reservations about applying even the “best simple sunscreens for men” then first things first — it doesn’t matter if it’s cloudy and neither does it matter if you’re indoors all day long clacking on a keyboard. Secondly, take a good look at yourself in the mirror and look for evidence of ageing and dark spots.
If the second has shocked you, that’s exactly the reason why you need to wear sunscreen on the daily. It doesn’t have to be designer either — it just has to be one that contains SPF while making you forget that you’re even wearing it.
Below, eight of the best simple sunscreens for men that we love. Stock up on a few of them, get to massaging and watch as they preserve your good looks.
