In the ever-evolving world we live in, men’s skincare and fashion have taken the spotlight. We’re breaking stereotypes and rewriting the rules because beauty and style are no longer just for the ladies. Get ready, because this blog post is your all-inclusive guide to men’s skincare and fashion. From game-changing tips to top-notch product recommendations, we’ve got you covered. 

It’s time to level up your grooming game, unleash your unique sense of style, and make a statement that’s all yours.

Men Need Skincare Too!

Let’s talk about why skincare is not just for the ladies. 

Our skin faces daily battles with environmental factors, stress, and aging, just like anyone else’s. Taking care of our skin isn’t about conforming to societal norms or looking flawless—it’s about investing in our overall well-being. 

Skincare routines can help nourish and protect our skin, prevent premature aging, and maintain a healthy complexion [1]. Who doesn’t want to feel fresh, confident, and ready to conquer the world? 

So, gentlemen, it’s time to embrace the power of skincare and unleash your best self, because self-care knows no gender boundaries. Let’s take care of ourselves, inside and out.

What Type Of Skin Do You Have?

Dry Skin

For the gents with dry skin, hydration is key! Keeping your skin moisturised and nourished is essential. Look for skincare products specifically formulated for dry skin, such as hydrating cleansers, moisturizers, and serums that provide deep hydration and lock in moisture, and make sure to use only fragrance-free products [2].

Don’t let dryness hold you back—give your skin the love and attention it deserves!

To cleanse your skin, you need a gentle and nourishing product such as Caudalie Cleansing Almond Milk enriched with sweet almond milk and formulated with over 97% natural origin ingredients. 

To moisturise your skin, we highly recommend you use Sisley Velvet SOS Comfort Intensive Repair Face Mask, which deeply nourishes and soothes dry skin at night and can also be used as a miracle 10-minute SOS face mask for a daytime top-up.

If your dry skin is persistent, we highly recommend you seek advice from your dermatologist.

Normal Skin

Lucky fellas with normal skin, your skincare routine is all about maintaining that healthy balance. Opt for gentle cleansers such as Crème De La Mer The Cleansing Lotion, and lightweight moisturisers like Charlotte Tilbury Magic Night Cream, rich in coenzyme Q10 and vitamin E to help maintain your skin’s hydration and keep your skin looking radiant and glowy.

Oily Skin

Having oily skin is like being a disco ball that never stops shining! It is a result of overactive sebaceous glands, which produce an excess amount of sebum [3]. 

Combat excess oil and shine with oil-free cleansers like Caudalie Vinoclean Micellar Cleansing Water, mattifying moisturizers such as Augustinus Bader The Light Cream, and products formulated to control sebum production.

Grooming 101: Everything You Need To Know

Master the art of a smooth and comfortable shave with these essential tips and techniques for men:

• Prep your skin and hair by washing your face with warm water before shaving to soften the hair follicles and open up the pores.
• Use a high-quality shaving cream or gel to create a protective barrier and allow the razor to glide smoothly across your skin, reducing irritation and razor burn.

We highly recommend Weleda’s Organic Shaving Cream for Men for a close, comfortable shave.

• Invest in a sharp, quality razor blade and replace it regularly to ensure a clean and precise shave without tugging or pulling on the hair.
• Shave in the direction of hair growth to minimize the risk of ingrown hairs and irritation. If necessary, you can do a second pass against the grain for a closer shave.
• Finish off your shaving routine by rinsing your face with cold water to close the pores and applying a soothing aftershave balm or lotion to moisturize and calm the skin [4].

Step up your style game by incorporating the hottest fashion trends for men into your wardrobe.
