The men's skincare range was foreign territory and I had no clue where to begin. I hadn't ventured into it, not because it didn't appeal to me- it did, but it was mainly because of a debate on just how different it is to the usual skin care products you see on the market. I had once asked a consultant at a counter what the difference is between the normal ranges and the men's, and she told me that basically, apart from male-centric targeted products such as razor relief, tougher pre-shave exfoliants and so and so, these products just have less ingredients. Surely unless the laboratories and the market specify products by gender, these products should be suitable to (quite literally) all skin types? Whatever. Point is, I've always thought about it and I decided to finally go down this route out of curiosity. For the more savvy beauty folks out there, I would love to hear some feedback on this by the way- but for now in my head I thought, men's skincare is as straight forward as they come.
Enter LAB Series. I do come across this range on my regular beauty trips around wherever and so I'm familiar with the scope of brand. Plus on the website it says 'High Tech. High Performance. Skincare for Men. Only'. Well alright then. I found a value travel pack in London that had both serum and face cream in it, and so on an impulse I went for it. It's formulated for all skin types, and right now, since my skin is having a dilemma on whether it wants to stay Combination or Dry, it was the ideal choice. I gave myself four weeks to try it out, all the while reserving judgement, and now the time has come for the verdict! Let me just give you some info from the brand itself regarding this range.

"Reclaim your younger looking skin with this intense overnight renewal serum inspired by Sirtuin technology and containing the same Molecular Age-Less Complex as MAX LS Age-Less Face Cream."
So after four weeks, here's my verdict:
