[monoslideshow id=5 w=550 h=428 preset=’tv-swap’]

Acne doesn’t just affect teenagers. For a lot of men, acne can affect skin well into adulthood. While adult acne isn’t typically as bad as teenage acne, it can still do a number on your confidence. Luckily, there are plenty of men’s acne products available to help you fix your skin. Here are the best acne products for men that should be a part of any men’s skincare routine.

1. Daily Face Wash – The first line of defense against men’s acne breakouts. A men’s face wash contains gentle cleansers that eliminate buildup and pore-clogging substances that can encourage acne breakouts. Salicylic acid, in particular, is a dermatologist-recommended ingredient that has been shown to effectively reduce acne. Daily use of a men’s face wash not only prevents acne but also contributes to an overall better complexion.

2. Microfine Face Scrub – For an even deeper clean, a men’s face scrub can do the trick. This face scrub for men contains microfine beads that exfoliate skin — in other words, they remove dead skin cells that hide young-looking skin. Unlike a men’s face wash, a face scrub for men shouldn’t be used every day. It should only be used 2-3 times a week — any more than that may irritate skin and make matters worse.

3. Daily Body Wash – Just like you need a cleanser for your face, you also need one for your body. This body cleanser for men is specifically tailored for use on your body, so it’s especially effective against back acne breakouts. Its salicylic acid helps combat acne as well as prevent future outbreaks.

4. Advanced Body Scrub –Exfoliating your body is just as important as your face. To give your skin a refreshing feel and maintain a youthful look, you should be using a men’s body scrub along with exfoliating gloves to target dead skin cells and smooth your skin.

5. Acne Spot Repair – If you suffer from individual pimples as opposed to acne breakouts, Acne Spot Repair can provide fast results. This 10% benzoyl peroxide acne cream for men can help eliminate pimples within 24-48 hours. Unlike other acne creams, it absorbs immediately and doesn’t leave behind any greasy or visible residue.

6. Acne Therapy Lotion – Acne breakouts and acne scars require a different skincare approach than just the occasional zit. Acne Therapy Lotion contains a lower concentration of benzoyl peroxide (3%) and complements it with vitamins and nutrients that help heal acne-damaged skin for not only immediate results but long-term results as well.

7. Advanced Acne Pads – Some people may find that benzoyl peroxide irritates their skin. If that’s the case, Advanced Acne Pads contains a different — but just as effective — acne-fighting ingredient: salicylic acid; it helps prevent pore-clogging, refine skin texture and remove oily dead organic matter. Another benefit of men’s acne pads is that they are easy to carry and store just about anywhere: your desk, gym bag, etc.
