HOW TO DO A MEN’S SKINCARE ROUTINE? WHAT PRODUCTS SHOULD YOU USE? LET’S DISCOVER TOGETHER THE ESSENTIAL STEPS AND PRODUCTS THAT SHOULD BE PART OF YOUR BEAUTY ROUTINE!
Skincare is often associated exclusively with women’s beauty, but that’s not the case. Especially now, with fluctuating temperatures and winter approaching, it’s vital to take care of your skin to keep it hydrated and protected.
For a beauty routine to be effective, it needs to follow specific steps. We propose five essential, simple, and quick steps that will help you see improvements in your skin right away!
STEP 1: CLEANSING
Cleansing your face is crucial because it removes impurities that accumulate during the day, clogging pores and causing blemishes. Cleansing should be done both in the morning and at night before bed.
For this step, a gel cleanser is ideal as it deeply cleanses and works quickly.
If you have oily skin or need a deeper cleanse, consider using an exfoliating cleanser instead.
AVOID: Hand soap. Always avoid washing your face with overly harsh cleansers like hand soap—it excessively dries and irritates the skin, leading to blemishes and, over time, wrinkles!
STEP 2: EXFOLIATING SCRUB
Another essential step in your skincare routine is exfoliation. A scrub contains micro-particles that help clean the face by removing dead skin cells and dirt residues. It leaves your skin smooth and radiant!
Pro Tip: Apply the scrub in circular motions across your face, avoiding the eye and lip areas. Perform this step no more than twice a week (we don’t want to stress the skin!), ideally in the evening as part of your nighttime routine.
STEP 3: HYDRATION
Now that your skin is clean, it’s time to help it stay hydrated and elastic. A good moisturizer is a must-have in your routine.
Moisturizers delay the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, giving you a more polished and less tired look.
If you’ve already noticed some wrinkles, don’t worry—opt for an anti-aging hydrating cream to plump up your skin for a fuller appearance.
OPTIONAL: Mix your moisturizer with a bit of sunscreen to protect against UV rays, boost your skin’s glow, and further delay the appearance of wrinkles and sunspots!
STEP 4: BEARD CARE
Beard care is essential, whether you prefer a clean shave or a longer beard!
If you choose to shave, it’s best to do it after a shower or after washing your face with warm water. This softens the hair, making it easier to cut. Use shaving-specific products and finish with a good aftershave.
If you prefer a long beard, remember to wash it with a special beard shampoo and conditioner. For an even more polished look, apply argan oil!
STEP 5: FACE MASKS
This is an optional step but a true treat for your skin (and yourself!). During stressful times, a face mask can help you relax. Take 5–10 minutes to unwind by choosing a mask suited to your skin’s needs, and use it once a week.
If you’re unsure about your skin’s needs, you can’t go wrong with a hydrating mask!
Incorporate these steps into your routine to keep your skin looking healthy and refreshed. Your skin will thank you!
