Understand Your Skin Type
The first step in creating a men’s skincare routine is to know what your skin type is. There are products made specifically for each skin type and solve specific issues of that particular type.
-
Oily Skin: If your skin shines throughout the day even after wiping the sweat off then you may have oily skin. Go for products that are light and nonsticky
-
Dry Skin: If your skin feels tight and flaky then most probably it is dry skin. Go for products that are hydrating and locks moisture on your skin.
-
Combination Skin: Thai skin type has oily and dryness parts on the skin with oily T zones (nose and cheeks) while having dry forehead or chin. Balance your routine by choosing products targetted specifically for the skin concerns.
-
Sensitive Skin: If your skin is easily irritated and prone to redness then most likely it falls under the sensitive skin type. Go for products that are fragrance free and gentle on your skin without any added sulfates or parabens.
Begin with the Basics: Purify, Hydrate, Guard
When it comes to skincare the less is more especially if you’re just getting started. Three basics in skincare is cleansing and hydrating along with protection from the sun.
- Cleaning: The first step in any skincare routine is gently cleaning and removing the accumulated dirt and germs on the skin to make it clean for the next steps. Use a gentle body wash or cleanser which is free from chemicals or artificial substances for the best results. Try the Califronia body wash suitable for all skin types which makes your skin supple and smooth with the composition of aloe vera and rosemary.
- Hydrating: After your skin is clean and free from any dirt or germs the next step is to hydrate it with a gentle yet nourishing moisturiser. A good body lotion will make sure to hydrate and nourish your skin by locking in the moisture all day long. Consider using Bergamot & Green Tea Body Lotion for a complete moisturisation that stays all day long. With natural and luxurious ingredients like Bergamot and green tea this body lotion is the best choice for people with sensitive skin.
- Protecting: Mere cleaning and moisturising the skin is not enough. One has to protect their skin fom the harsh UV rays of the sun whether being inside or stepping out from their house. Using a broad spectrum sun protection in the form of lotions or sprays will not just make the skin protected from sun rays but also make it glowy and hydrated along with preventing tanning and irritation.
Don't Forget Your Hands and Feet
Men tend to forget the hands and feet skin, but it is equally important as the face. Body lotion applied daily will keep hands and feet from getting dry and cracked. For an easy and handy travel sized option use the Bergamot Green Tea Travel Set which contains both a body wash and a lotion in 100ml travel-sized containers ideal for quick on-the-go moisturizing. These products of men’s skincare set will be gentle and refreshing, perfect for maintaining your skin tone wherever you are.
Shaving: Keep Your Skin Smooth
For men who shave regularly it is important to keep their skin hydrated and prepped to avoid any bumps or scratches or cuts before or after the shave. Use a good quality shaving cream to avoid any cuts and take care of the skin post shaving with a good quality aftershave.
Mind Your Diet and Hydration
A skin care regimen is not only what you put on your skin. Your diet and level of hydration also affect the health of your skin. Drink water all day to keep your skin healthy on the inside and outside. A well-balanced diet with an abundance of fruits and fats will also make your skin look better.
Consistency is Key
Building a skincare routine that works takes time. Don’t expect instant results. Be consistent with your routine and give the products time to work. Over time you’ll notice smoother and healthier skin.
