“The general principles of skincare are the same for both men and women, but there may be some differences in skincare routines based on individual needs and preferences. While men and women have similar skin structures, there are a few factors that can lead to differences in how they care for their skin.“
– Christina Dang, Rescue Spa Esthetician
The skincare world is notoriously difficult to navigate, but we are here to help simplify it for you and leave you with healthy skin. It is often that skincare is associated with women, but skincare has no gender. An intentional and consistent skincare routine is something that anyone can benefit from. It all starts with just a few basic steps (or more if you have the time).
As Christina mentioned, there are a few factors that lead to differences in how men care for their skin such as skin thickness and oiliness, facial hair and targeted skin concerns. Regardless of gender, a consistent skincare routine that includes cleansing, toning, exfoliating, moisturizing, and sun protection can help maintain healthy and vibrant skin. Ultimately, the most effective skincare routine comes from understanding your own skin type, concerns, and personal preferences rather than relying on gendered products. If you have specific concerns or questions about skincare, it’s always a good idea to consult with a skincare professional for personalized advice.
Below we have listed the four main pillars of skincare, but it doesn’t stop there! Incorporating targeted products like serums or masks is also an integral part of skincare to achieve all of your goals.
- CLEANSE
- TONE/EXFOLIATE
- MOISTURIZE
- SUN PROTECTION
CLEANSE
The basis of every great skincare routine starts with a cleanse, morning and night to remove any traces of oil, dirt, sebum or dead skin cells. Cerabalm from DANUCERA is a nourishing multipurpose balm that can be used to cleanse, moisturize and mask; a great option for those with a busy schedule.
TONE/EXFOLIATE
Exfoliation is necessary as it can prevent clogged pores, acne and allow for a smoother, cleaner shave. D22 Tonic can be used on all skin types to gently exfoliate, soothe and smooth. From the MBR men’s line, Over Night Peeling is another option to remove dead skin cells and leave the skin feeling soft and supple.
MOISTURIZE
Hydrate and nourish your skin by finishing off your routine with a moisturizer. The Cream can be used morning and night to provide intense moisture and decrease fine lines and wrinkles.
SUN PROTECTION
Protect your skin from sun damage and pigmentation by using an SPF everyday! Elta MD’s UV Clear SPF will calm the skin and prevent breakouts.
