If your men’s skincare routine only focuses on your face, it’s time to stop neglecting the rest of your body; acne, dry skin and other skin problems can affect any part of your skin. The best defense is a comprehensive men’s skincare routine that targets both your face and body.
So what body skincare products should you use to leave your skin feeling soft and smooth? While most of us have heard of body washes, body lotions and the like, there’s one tool that you probably don’t know about – and it’s arguably one of the most important: exfoliating gloves.
Exfoliating gloves? What are those?
Let’s start by explaining what exfoliation is. Exfoliation is the process of removing dead cells from the surface of your skin. If you’ve ever had a facial at a spa, then you’ve experienced the process. The goal is to unclog pores and help products like Advanced Body Wash and Advanced Body Lotion better permeate your skin for maximum results.
Exfoliating gloves like the MenScience Buff Body Gloves take deep cleaning one step further. Think of exfoliating gloves – and exfoliation in general — as an extra helping hand in the fight against skin problems. The Body Buff Gloves are made of micromesh, so they are abrasive enough to help you scrub off dead skin cells without being so rough that they irritate your skin. For people with acne-prone skin, using exfoliating gloves can help reduce and control back acne along with an acne treatment system.
How do I use the gloves?
– Put the MenScience Body Buff Gloves on before getting in the shower.
– Wet them with lukewarm water and then add MenScience Daily Body Wash to the gloves.
– Lather up and massage over your entire body.
– Rinse your body and gloves and make sure to dry the gloves in a well-ventilated area.
That’s all there is to it. It’s a simple process, but it’s one that a lot of us overlook. And it’s a shame that we don’t do it more often: Regular exfoliation of your entire body will significantly improve your overall skin’s appearance and tone, allowing it to look smoother, younger and renewed.
