This intensive anti-aging serum contains a stabilized form of retinol for deep wrinkle correction. It's great for targeting fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots and uneven texture. The formula is ideal for men with oily or irregularly pigmented skin. Use this serum only at night. During the day, be sure to apply sunscreen to protect newly surfaced skin cells.

Combat the fading of your glowing skin with this serum loaded with peptides, antioxidants and tons of Vitamin C. It helps build collagen, fade dark spots and improve skin tone and texture. The soothing formula is ideal for men with sensitive or dry skin. For optimal results, use twice daily alone or pair with a retinol cream at night.

The potent peptide complex in this serum helps support the skin's elasticity and resilience for a firmer, smoother and more youthful appearance. Its formula boosts hydration levels and absorbs quickly without leaving behind any greasy residue. It's ideal for men with sensitive skin who want anti-aging benefits but cannot tolerate traditional retinol treatments.

This intelligent “Swiss Army knife” of a serum wields a blended arsenal of antioxidants, texture-refining alpha hydroxy acids, patented peptides and other supporting molecules to simultaneously tackle wrinkles, stubborn spots, hyperpigmentation, and sun-damage in one comprehensive formula. Your skin will feel renewed in just a few weeks. What's more, this product is great for sensitive skin types and easy to tolerate, so long as you are not allergic to niacinamide. This serum lightens spots and gives skin better texture.

This gentle yet effective anti-aging serum uses an innovative encapsulated retinol delivery system to gradually release the active ingredients to minimize irritation and dryness. It's suitable for oily, combination, and dry types and helps smooth away fine lines while refining skin texture, shrinking pores and fading dark spots. If redness is an issue for you, introduce this product slowly at first - every third day - until you become used to it. Once your skin is comfortable enough with the use of retinoids, you can start using this product daily.

Protect your skin's boyish glow with this cutting-edge top selling luxury serum that men love. It contains exosomes - tiny, naturally occurring messenger structures - to signal your skin cells to ramp up collagen production. To get the most out of this product, I recommend using it alongside vitamin C and/or retinoids- but this depends on which of the 16 skin types you are. Most men notice a visible difference within 2 weeks when used daily, but give it 8 weeks before you judge the results.

The Vitamin C and glycolic acid duo packed into this breakthrough serum delivers both short and long term brightening, exfoliating and collagen boosting results specifically tailored for men with resistant skin types that can tolerate its uniquely low pH formulations. While some positive effects may appear within weeks, the full scope of benefits often unfold gradually over a 3-6 month period of consistent use, ultimately combatting dulling tone and early wrinkling. Use caution when combining with retinol, as both ingredients are highly effective exfoliants that could potentially over-dry the skin if applied simultaneously.

Multiple hydrating ingredients like glycerin, heparan sulfate and glucosamine fill the skin with vital moisture while smoothing out mature lines. Supported by a combination of Vitamin E and other anti-aging ingredients, this product bolsters collagen and defends against environmental stressors over time. I recommend using this product as part of your AM skin care routine. At night, use this product alongside a retinoid if you can tolerate retinoids. Good for men with rosacea and wrinkles.

We hope this list of antiaging serums for men has given you more confidence that the fate of your face is still in your hands. A good antiaging product can make all the difference in the way your skin matures.
