The best anti-aging care for men with mature and oily skin
Hello Jose,
There may be many reasons why the feeling of oily skin returns after midday, after using other brands of cosmetic products. Here are some of them:
a. Overly aggressive facial cleanser. If you use a facial cleanser that contains sulphates or overly aggressive ingredients (even a conventional shower gel or bar of soap), your skin is left so unprotected that it has a rebound effect and generates even more oil to protect itself. We recommend that you only use a very gentle facial cleanser (sulphate-free and with pH 5) like our Extra Gent's .
b. The facial creams you are using are formulated for drier skin (like women's) and are adding excess oil to your skin, which then ends up being removed. We recommend our Anti-Stress Gel , since instead of being a cream, it is an anti-aging facial gel, formulated specifically for men's skin.
c. You are using too much facial cream. Sometimes, when we switch from using a conventional cream (with silicones, paraffins, etc.) to a 100% natural cream (with only plant extracts and vegetable oils), some brands like ours are very concentrated, and really a very small amount is more than enough. It is difficult to recommend the exact amount to apply, since it depends on each individual case. But in some cases, the amount corresponding to the size of a lentil would be enough.
d. Detox phase. If you have been using creams with petroleum derivatives (paraffin, Vaseline, silicone oils) in the past, which is very common in most brands, it is possible that your skin is now in this "detox" phase and is slowly expelling these types of ingredients. We are not saying that this is exactly what is happening to you, but it is a possibility, or it may be a mixture of all these possibilities. That is why we recommend that you only use 100% natural products with organic certification, which guarantee that they do not contain petroleum derivatives. These petroleum derivatives are inert and do not contribute anything to your skin. On the other hand, if you use a product that only contains plant extracts and vegetable oils, the fatty acids of these vegetable oils have a greater biocompatibility with your skin than the fatty acids of petroleum-derived oils.
e. You have oily skin no matter what you do. Have you ever tried washing your face one day without applying any face cream, and seeing what happens by midday? If your skin is oily again by midday, then it's not because of the cream, but because you have oily skin no matter what you do, and if you also live in a hot and humid climate, then it's quite likely that the shine will reappear after a few hours, even if you haven't applied any cream. In this case, our recommendations would be:
i. When you shower, don't use your regular shower gel on your face. Wash your face outside the shower and use only a gentle facial cleanser like our Extra Gent's . When you dry your face, don't rub. Pat it dry with a soft towel.
ii. Apply a facial toner with sebum-regulating properties such as our Cool Splash . It is an oil-free product that only contains plant extracts to tone, revitalize, and refresh your skin. It is also a great aftershave soother. Being in spray format, it is very easy to apply.
iii. Apply a light-textured and oil-free serum like our Dark Spots Fighter . This serum is completely water-based and also oil-free, and is a powerful anti-aging product.
These 3 steps that we have mentioned are the ones that we would recommend to you now in summer.
Additionally, you can try our Anti-Stress Gel , as we mentioned above. This anti-aging facial gel is specifically formulated for men's skin, and specifically for combination skin and oily skin . But start with these 3 products first ( Cleanser , Revitalizing Spray and Serum ), and if you see that your skin accepts it, add the Anti-Stress Gel to seal the active ingredients of the facial spray and serum .
It is possible that during the hot season, you do not need to use the Anti-Stress Gel and the spray and serum will be enough, and then at the end of the summer, when it is no longer so hot, you can add the Anti-Stress Gel . In addition, the Anti-Stress Gel has a very firming active ingredient, ideal for combating premature sagging so common in oily skin.
Then, in winter, you can also combine the serum recommended above with the Skin Recovery Serum , which also has sebum-regulating and firming active ingredients to combat sagging .
And then, in times of intense cold, you can also combine the Anti-Stress Gel with the Anti-Stress Cream to protect your skin from low temperatures.
ON HOW TO FIGHT BAGS AROUND THE EYES
You also asked us about an eye contour cream for bags. We recommend our Eyes-On-Me , as it contains a complex of 8 active ingredients to comprehensively fight bags, dark circles and wrinkles in the specific eye contour area. This eye contour cream is very easy to apply, as it has a metal ball with a cold effect that allows you to massage the eye contour area to help drain bags and prevent future appearance. The ingredients it contains are very draining, decongestant and antioxidant, ideal for keeping bags at bay. In addition, it has a very light texture, ideal for oily skin.
That would be all from our side. In any case, we recommend taking our skin test , which is a short questionnaire that will give you a personalized facial routine with the products that best suit your skin's needs in less than 2 minutes.
We remain at your disposal to provide any additional information you may require.
