Here at MenScience, we talk a lot about dealing with skin problems like acne breakouts and wrinkles, but it’s just as important to prevent these problems from happening in the first place. Protecting your skin with the proper men’s skincare products can go a long way in keeping common skin problems at bay. Here’s a list of the products you need to help protect men’s skin.
How to Protect the Skin on Your Face
Daily Face Wash: This men’s face wash uses gentle cleansing agents to wash away debris and buildup that can clog your pores and make your skin appear older. Dermatologist-recommended salicylic acid helps get rid of acne breakouts and prevent their reoccurrence. “How to Get a Clear Complexion” further explains the benefits of using MenScience Daily Face Wash.
Microfine Face Scrub: To help shed dead skin cells and encourage the growth of new ones, exfoliate weekly with Microfine Face Scrub. Regular exfoliation can help ward off aging signs like wrinkles and fine lines while also providing your face with a deep, refreshing clean. Unlike Daily Face Wash, MenScience Microfine Face Scrub use should be limited to 2-3 times a week to prevent irritation. “Men’s Face Wash vs. Men’s Face Scrub: What’s the Difference?” explains the difference between these two products.
Advanced Face Lotion: Whether you have dry skin, oily skin or a combination of the two, you can benefit from this men’s moisturizer. MenScience Advanced Face Lotion protects your skin by increasing your skin’s moisture levels. Moisturizing can help prevent flakiness, redness and other signs of dry skin. To maximize the benefits of your moisturizer, read “Men’s Moisturizer Tips.”
Anti-Aging Formula: It’s impossible to turn back the hands of time, but this anti aging cream can definitely delay them. Anti-Aging Formula contains a proprietary formula of the most powerful anti aging ingredients available: retinol, GABA and alpha lipoic acid. Together, these powerful ingredients can help prevent wrinkles and other aging signs that can make you look your age. To prevent eye-area wrinkles, apply Eye Rescue Formula; skin around the eye is extra sensitive and requires a specialized cream.
Advanced Shave Formula: No guy wants to deal with ingrown hairs – they’re unsightly and painful. Thankfully, Advanced Shave Formula can help dramatically reduce the development of ingrown hairs when shaving. This is due in part to its skin-soothing ingredients like aloe and allantoin, which help protect and lubricate the skin for an effortless shave. Following your shave up with Post-Shave Repair can further reduce irritation and redness associated with razor burn and ingrown hairs. “Tips for the Perfect Shave” offers more shaving advice to consider.
How to Protect the Skin on Your Body
Daily Body Wash: Daily Body Wash offers many of the same benefits as Daily Face Wash. Unlike mass-market soaps that use irritating ingredients and fragrances, this liquid cleanser won’t dry out skin and contains the powerful skincare ingredient glycolic acid, which helps shed dead skin cells. Because it also contains salicylic acid, it can be particularly helpful for men who suffer from back acne. “How to Reduce Back Acne” lists ways to get body pimple breakouts under control.
Advanced Body Scrub: Your body can also benefit from the deep clean that an exfoliating scrub like Advanced Body Scrub provides. Fine exfoliating particles help buff away impurities, while glycolic acid and other advanced ingredients condition skin to leave it feeling soft and refreshed. Again, exfoliation should be limited to 2-3 times a week to prevent irritation and redness. “Exfoliation 101” explains the ins and outs of exfoliation.
Advanced Body Lotion: Rough fabrics can irritate and dry out skin, leading to redness, flakiness and other annoying dry skin symptoms. By hydrating skin with Advanced Body Lotion, you can rebalance your skin’s moisture levels and protect your skin from further irritation. This men’s body lotion uses premium ingredients like hyaluronic acid and glycerin for instant absorption with no greasy residue.
TiO2 Sunblock SPF 30: Sun exposure is one of the leading causes of premature aging signs, so applying a premium sunblock that fights both UVA and UVB rays is critical to preventing sunburn, wrinkles and other sun-related damage. Sunblock should be a part of any men’s skincare regiment regardless of the season. Your skin is still susceptible to damage even during cold winter months, so apply it whenever you plan on being outdoors for an extended period of time. “Protect Your Skin From Sun Damage” offers the best tips for men’s suncare.
Daily Shampoo: Your scalp is a breeding ground for buildup, so using a shampoo that contains salicylic acid can help wash away debris that can lead to scalp acne, hair damage and other skincare problems. Daily Shampoo is specially formulated for men’s scalps and can help prevent dandruff and roughness as well. If scalp acne is a frequent occurrence for you, “How to Get Rid of Scalp Acne” offers some simple solutions.
