Facial skin care and cosmetic procedures are no longer considered the prerogative of women. Men also want to keep their outer and inner youth. Moreover, grooming is one of the signs of a man’s wealth and success.
Skin aging in men occurs later than in women. This is due to the difference in hormonal levels and a higher content of collagen (by 25-30%) and melanin. At the same time, men have more active work of the sebaceous and sweat glands. All this affects the features of facial skin care in men.
To keep the skin tone even, without oily sheen, men need to regularly deep cleanse and use after-shave healing products, because regular shaving injures the skin.
Home skin care
Skin rejuvenation for men should be done with home care products in combination with beauty treatments. With home care:
- Cleanse the skin regularly with special products. Among the required care products: washing gel, toner and cream. Many men use alcohol-based aftershave lotions. These lotions dry out the skin by disrupting its structure. When choosing an after-shave cosmetic, it is important to pay attention that it does not contain alcohol. It is better to use a moisturizer after shaving and washing. The choice of cosmetics for men is much less than for women. You can use women’s care products, but it is better to choose those that are designed for combination and oily skin. Cosmetics are recommended to choose one line and it is better to consult a good beautician. Proper care helps nourish and moisturize the skin and avoid oily sheen and breakouts.
- Water balance. The daily norm is considered to be 2 litters of water, or at least 1.5 litters per day. Juices, tea and coffee do not count. Water nourishes skin cells and prolongs youth. If you add lemon juice with mint to the water, then toxins will be more actively removed from the body, metabolism and the immune background will improve.
- Quitting bad habits such as excessive alcohol and smoking. Within a month, men’s facial skin will acquire a lighter and healthier look, the puffiness will go away.
