Although most skincare products are designed for and marketed toward women, men also have to take care of their skin. The skin is an organ with a surface area of around 10 square feet. The skin loses 5% of its cells every day, and it takes about three weeks for your skin to fully regenerate. Ensuring that your skin looks young and vibrant requires understanding your skin type and what products work best for your individual needs.

*Moisturizers & shaving creams
*Men’s hair support
*Provides healthy, vibrant skin
Normal Skin
Some lucky men have what is considered normal skin: not too oily, not too dry, but just right. These men experience few spots, pimples, or blackheads. Their skin is firm, smooth, and easy to care for, needing only a daily facial wash to keep their skin free of blemishes. They are also the envy of the rest of us.
Oily Skin
Men with oily skin are often frustrated by acne and other blemishes, as well as enlarged pores. Individuals with this skin type should only us skincare products that remove oil and dirt without adding to overall skin hydration. Use moisturizers with antibacterial ingredients that won’t further irritate acne and other skin blemishes.
Dry Skin
Dry skin is particularly problematic in the winter months, and can cause dull and flaky skin. Individuals living with dry skin should ensure that their facial cleanser does not increase dryness. Moisturize often to keep skin hydrated throughout the day, and a night cream can help hydrate your skin during the night. Another consideration is what type of shaving cream you use. Be sure to use moisturizing shaving creams that don’t dry out your skin.
Sensitive Skin
Many men deal with extremely sensitive skin that reacts to soaps, scents, chemicals, and other irritants, causing blotchy and red skin that can often be painful. These individuals should use only chemical-free products that limit irritation and protect the skin from dangerous elements.
Combination Skin
Men living with combination skin can sometimes be more frustrated than those facing a singular problem. Dry skin here, oily skin there, what is a person to do? Combination skin generally takes the form of an oily ‘t-zone’ comprising the forehead, chin, and nose, while the cheeks and other areas remain dry. These individuals need to use multiple products on each skin zone, allowing dry areas to moisturize and oily zones to be effectively cleaned.
