Julie Baker, the marketing director at Sara Lee UK, said: "Today men are increasingly aware of the importance of good skincare and have an open mind to new products, but these have to be their 'own' innovative products that address the needs of male skin. We believe that with this new range, we are responding to a very real demand for no-nonsense, effective products."
