Men's Skincare: More than a trend, essential care
Men's skincare has evolved significantly: they are no longer just a fashion trend, but a key part of personal care and skin health. Designed specifically for men's needs, this routine includes everything from anti-aging cream to eye cream, as well as facial and body care for men.
With thicker, oilier skin, men need specific products—such as anti-aging creams, serums, facial cleansers, and sunscreen —that combat aging and especially wrinkles, while also moisturizing and regenerating.
If you're a man who takes care of himself and has been recommended a unisex cream, here are three reasons why you should switch to men's skincare and how to create a complete men's skincare routine.
3 reasons to switch to men's skincare
1. FIRST REASON
Generally speaking, men's skin is different from women's. We won't go into too much detail on this point, as we explain it in more detail in this other blog post.
Generally speaking, men's skin tends to be more lipid-rich (i.e., slightly more oily) and also thicker. It's also important to keep in mind that shaving is a form of skin abuse.
And what does this mean?
This means that if you use an anti-aging cream with a texture that is incorrectly called "unisex," but which is actually designed for women's skin, which is generally drier than men's and therefore requires greasier cream textures, this type of texture may not be ideal for you, providing excess oil to your skin , which can result in uncomfortable excess sebum and the feeling that you "sweat" your face cream after wearing it for a while.
That's why it's very important to use an anti-aging facial cream formulated specifically for men's skin.
If you are also a man with combination or oily skin, our recommendation is that you use an anti-aging GEL cream, since it has a lighter texture, leaving the skin shine-free once it has been absorbed.
It's also important to consider how much our skin is subjected to daily shaving, as the razor not only removes beard hair but also the hydrolipidic layer, which, although we can't see it, is a protective layer for our skin that is very important not to unbalance.
That's why the use of natural, non-aggressive products is extremely important, as well as products with a high level of active ingredients, which can not only help regenerate our skin but also provide the desired vitamin intake.
2. SECOND REASON
The second reason is the fragrance of men's skincare products. Most unisex anti-aging creams are formulated with fragrances that may be unappealing to many men's senses.
Our men's facial and body care products are formulated with only 100% pure essential oils (we do not use synthetic perfumes) with fragrances selected for men's enjoyment, such as citrus and mint, which are great refreshers, or woody wood, which is very attractive to the male sense of smell.
3. THIRD REASON
And the third reason is simply a presentation reason for men's skin care products.
Of course, this is a very subjective topic, and luckily, increasingly, the color of the bottle shouldn't be the relevant factor when making the purchasing decision, but rather the type of texture and the quality and quantity of the active ingredient that makes up your cosmetic or skincare product.
But it's true that many men don't feel comfortable using products with very floral or very "feminine" presentations, although we insist that this shouldn't be the most important thing when choosing a cosmetic product.
How to complete your men's skincare routine
To make your routine truly effective, here's a complete suggestion:
-
Daily facial cleansing
Use a sulfate-free facial cleanser that removes impurities and excess oil, leaving your skin ready for your men's anti-aging gel or cream.
-
Anti-aging cream for men + serum
Apply an anti-wrinkle cream or anti-aging cream for men after a specific serum (for example, with vitamin C or hyaluronic acid) to maximize the anti-aging effect.
-
Men's eye contour
Use a roll-on eye contour cream for men to reduce puffy eyes, dark circles, and wrinkles. Apply it morning and night. And if you need to instantly remove dark circles, apply a concealer like our Eyes-On-Me Camouflage. -
Body hydration + scrubbing
Don't neglect your body care. A men's body cream after showering improves elasticity and prevents dryness. Remember to scrub your skin once a week to remove dead cells and help it regenerate.
-
Daily sunscreen
Sun protection is a very effective step against aging and premature aging in men. You can use a fast-absorbing, white-free spray sunscreen or a biodegradable sunscreen stick with SPF 50.
Product Recommendation
-
Anti-aging cream for men with natural ingredients —ideal for combating signs of aging.
-
Eye contour for men that reduces puffy eyes, dark circles and crow's feet.
-
Facial serum for men with antioxidant active ingredients to enhance the anti-aging cream.
-
Body cream for men with nourishing and firming active ingredients such as argan and ginger.
