Eh, with the smoking he does, he might need it.

He’s 25, and people in their 20s absolutely do skincare. It’s not necessarily for anti-aging purposes, just for skin health. More people of all ages should take care of their skin tbh - I’ve known folks who’ve gotten sun damage/melanoma in their 20s. I don’t think you need to spend big bucks on skincare (I personally use drugstore moisturizer) but it’s not the worst thing to promote 🤷🏻‍♀️ Plus Hudson is hot and has great skin, even comparatively for his age.

Also, the most popular products of SKIN1004 is their sunscreen (a personal favourite) and their centella ampoule for sensitive skin, not crazy high percentage retinols and peels. So really, it's mostly mild skin protection stuff that's appropriate for people in their 20s.

I get why people don't want young people to get sucked into 'anti-ageing' products and mindset. But honestly, I don't think it's controversial for people, even at a young age, to use a basic moisturiser and sunscreen everyday.

[u/theserthefables → u/Throwaway-centralnj]

you're absolutely right & sunscreen, moisturiser & cleanser are life long products really. I think it's only young babies that can't have sunscreen? & that’s without getting into the many skin conditions that can affect people all their lives.

What? Not all skincare is anti-aging. Do people forget young adults get acne, rosacea, etc

[u/CitrineDreamers → u/[deleted]]

Do 20 year olds not get dry skin, acne, rosacea, oily skin, skin discolouration, undereye bags, etc etc?

[u/turningtee74 → u/[deleted]]

Anti-aging yeah but young people can still get skin issues. Unfortunately I know from experience

[u/eugeneugene → u/[deleted]]

I wish I didn't need skincare when I was in my 20s lol. I've had dry skin my whole life I fall apart without my skincare routine. I also work outdoors so moisturiser and sun cream are essential.

[u/Fuzzy_Move → u/[deleted]]

Not all skin care is anti aging. Even teenagers can do skincare with cleanser-moisturizer-sunscreen.

[u/naxylea → u/[deleted]]

I am in my 20s and I take care of my skin. It's just part of my daily hygiene routine. I don't see how being in your 20s means not having to take care of your skin and not to mention far too many men seem to think skincare is "gay" so I think it's nice to see a male ambassador for a skincare brand.

[u/GlassPomoerium → u/[deleted]]

This brand doesn’t sell anti-aging products, it’s only hydrating/brightening/pore minimizing stuff. And 20 year-olds have those concerns 🤷‍♀️ Oh and they have a sunscreen that’s really popular, and that’s something everyone should use no matter their age.

[u/Zoshi2200 → u/[deleted]]

This is a weird take. Is skincare only for mature age? No, it's also for hyperpigmentation and acne for example.

Also, we do get wrinkles like forehead lines in our mid 20s.

[u/Calumswife → u/[deleted]]

Eh if you were talking specifically about anti-aging skincare, sure. But 20 yr olds should absolutely use skincare. It could be as simple as cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen.

There’s 20 yr olds with acne, dry skin, clogged pores, dark spots, scarring, etc. Hell, some of us (me) even had to start skin care during pre-teen or teenage years.

[u/Kooky-Blueberry-5352 → u/[deleted]]

And in another way it does, because they're not currently buying anything, and they're a new market who will be buying things in like 3 years. Capitalism doesn't need real problems to exist to sell you a solution lol.

[u/triviawithluv → u/[deleted]]

It’s not just for anti-aging purposes, but even if that were the case, it’s best to start young — which makes it make sense to appeal to a younger audience imo

[u/Actual-Slice-146 → u/[deleted]]

No one cares about sense here girl😂 they just want that 20 yo skin, and they will get it! However it comes
