Bob Gearing is a New York-based writer covering men’s grooming from the perspective of a very real (and very sweaty) dude. By day, he’s a well-SPF’d tech sales bro; by night, he’s a red-light mask guy who definitely didn’t think he’d care this much about skincare. When he’s not testing the latest face serum, you’ll find him sweating through a round of golf or holding out hope that the Lions will make the Super Bowl before he dies.
