Men's facial care: how to take care of your skin?

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEN'S AND WOMEN'S COSMETICS?

Men's skin is thicker and often oilier than that of women. They therefore tend to produce more sebum. Shaving also generates skin problems, irritation and ingrown beard hairs. Your little advantage, gentlemen, is that your skin is less reactive than that of women. So it's important to find a facial routine that suits your lifestyle and your skin.

You can start by analyzing your skin to obtain a diagnosis (do you feel tightness, do you have a tendency towards pimples or irritation? Etc.) or go directly to one of our boutiques. To care for your skin without damaging it, we recommend using only natural cosmetics.

CLEANSE YOUR FACE DAILY

The first thing to do for an optimal routine is to use the right cleanser. Every day, your skin encounters all kinds of harmful elements, such as pollution, the weather, excess sebum, dust, and so on. So it's essential to protect and repair it when necessary. Using a facial cleanser allows you to eliminate all these impurities accumulated over the course of the day.

How to choose a facial cleanser for men? We recommend a gentle, moisturizing cleanser to be used at the end of the day. Start by gently cleansing the outside of your face, then work your way inwards to remove all excess skin, all with lukewarm water.

TAKING CARE OF YOUR BEARD

How do I wash my beard? Use a good cleanser or natural beard shampoo for gentle cleansing and to avoid the risk of allergies. How do you get a good beard and keep it looking good for the long term? Once you've cleaned your beard and facial skin, it's essential to keep it well moisturized for daily maintenance. Use a deeply nourishing and moisturizing oil.

REMOVE DEAD SKIN

Dead skin means a bad complexion! Facial exfoliation not only eliminates dead skin cells, it also leaves your complexion brighter and more radiant. A weekly exfoliation will unclog pores, rid your face of excess sebum and give way to a fresher, brighter complexion. Using an exfoliator will limit ingrown hairs caused by shaving, by allowing the hair to emerge before the razor blade passes through. Limit exfoliation to once or twice a week, so as not to irritate the skin, but rather to tone it up.

MOISTURIZE YOUR SKIN

Moisturizing your skin is an essential step in your facial routine. Once cleansed, skin needs to be nourished. It will then be better protected and more resistant to all external aggressions that can dry it out. It's up to you to choose the moisturizing cream best suited to your skin and to use daily. Your cream will differ according to your skin type! Certain creams are best suited to dry, combination or oily skin. Your choice will then be between a light or rich cream, depending on your needs. Don't forget that the best anti-aging facial care for men is daily moisturizing. For anyone with a beard, your skin needs extra moisturizing, as it is more sensitive to repetitive shaving.

USE A MASK

Using a men's face mask makes your skin softer, clearer and healthier. Don't hesitate to use a mask once every two weeks or so. It eliminates the deepest impurities and purifies your skin. What's more, a mask helps regenerate your skin cells. Choose the mask best suited to your skin's needs: cleansing, exfoliating or moisturizing. Don't hesitate to ask for advice.

EXFOLIATE YOUR SKIN

And no, gentlemen! Facial scrubs aren't just for women! Men's facial scrubs are an essential part of your beauty routine if you like to look after yourself and your skin. The ideal scrub depends on your skin type. Men's scrubs are often rich in moisturizing agents and have "greasy" properties. So it's important to choose the right product to avoid getting the opposite effect of what your skin needs.
