A skincare routine for men is as essential as a healthy diet. Though eating right and exercising regularly can help put your best face forward, they aren’t enough. With increasing pollution levels, direct sun exposure and the build-up of dead cells over time, your skin needs attention too. To scrub away some of the damage that’s already been done to your outer layer (and prevent any further harm that is likely to occur), you will need to develop a daily skin routine. This fact stands agnostic of gender. But if you’re still wondering what a skincare routine for men could possibly entail, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
All it takes is a little time and patience to get with the cycle. Below are some pointers on how to ease yourself into it.
Find The Time: The term to stress on here is ‘routine’. Find a time that works for you and commit to it single-mindedly.
Do Your Research: Try to understand what your skin type is so that you can customise your routine accordingly.
Choose The Right Products: Golden rules for all skin types when choose products:
Sensitive/Combination Skin: Opt for hypoallergenic products
Oily Skin: Salicylic Acid is your best friend
Dry Skin: Choose moisturiser or cream-based products
Get Enough Sleep: Without adequate rest, your stress levels tend to go up. This means higher levels of cortisol, which accelerates inflammation.
Remember the time-honoured mantra: CTM. Cleanse. Tone. Moisturise. Here’s how you can go through each step.
Cleanse
Use one that complements your skin type. Something that’s too strong may cause dehydration. Your skin needs to retain essential oils while doing away with impurities. Gentlemen with dry skin can opt for a moisturising cleanser, preferably one that is non-exfoliating. Those with oily skin should avoid products that contain oils or alcohol. Men with combination skin ought to opt for gentle, paraben-free products that are also hypo-allergenic, to avoid causing irritation to the skin.
Tone
Toners remove dirt and dead cells, protecting skin against acne. But perhaps the most important function is its ability to restore your skin’s pH balance once your cleanser has done its job. If you have dry skin, invest in a toner that rehydrates. Those with oily skin should opt for something that gently exfoliates but is devoid of alcohol. Finally, the lucky ones who have combination skin can simply pick anything that’s alcohol-free.
Moisturise
Moisturisers balance out your skin’s inherent properties, reduce dryness and even help ease blemishes. Moisturisers are particularly essential for men with dry skin — shea butter and cocoa butter are a good pick for them. If you have oily skin, use a moisturiser that is light and not oil-based. Moisturising for combination skin can be a tad tricky. Use a lighter moisturiser and concentrate on the drier areas on your face.
If you’re always on the move, you could also choose from KleenOWipe’s wide range of facial wipes. Micellar Water’s Vitamin E-infused wipes are great for reviving dry skin. The Charcoal Wipes contain salicylic acid, which is hailed for its ability to unclog pores and absorb excess oil; and if it is combination or sensitive skin that plagues you, opt for the Exfoliating and Cleansing Wipes. These combine the calming effects of chamomile to stop inflammation with gentle exfoliation of flaky skin.
This is an option to try, especially in times of COVID-19. Single-use wipes are far safer since they can be discarded immediately after you are through with them – limiting contact with others who may use the product after you.
KleenOWipe is an industry disruptor that has not only introduced India to one of its first skincare facial wipes, but also empowered customers with the attainable goal of skincare wellness.
