Skin Care Tips and Treatments for Men
Who says skin care is only for women? Due to things like social media and the introduction of inclusive beauty lines, there has been a rise in the demand for men’s skincare products over the past couple of years.
Not sure where to start? Here are the top skin care tips and treatments we recommend you try!
Skin Care Tips
Wash your face day and night.
Using a cleanser is the first place you should start when building a skin care routine. But whatever you do, please avoid using your body wash or bar soap on your face at all costs! While it may work for the rest of your body, the skin on your face is much more delicate and body wash can be harsh and dry it out. A mild facial cleanser will work much better!
We recommend: Intraceuticals Gentle Cleanser, DMK Deep Pore Pure or the Environ Cleansing Gel
Moisturize daily.
Once you’ve cleansed the dirt and excess oils off your face, it’s time to add some moisture. Not only will moisturizing daily help your skin stay hydrated but it will also help keep it balanced. For the best results, apply immediately after showering or shaving while your skin is still damp.
We recommend: The Environ AVST Moisturizers
Wear your sunscreen!!
Sunscreen isn’t just for the beach! Make sure you’re applying an SPF every day to help prevent sun damage and avoid the formation of wrinkles, premature aging and discolouration. We suggest using a broad-spectrum, water-resistant sunscreen with an SPF of 30.
We recommend: As the go-to brand for SPF at Bare Ur Beauty, we suggest trying the Coola Cucumber Matte Finish SPF 30 Sunscreen
Stay hydrated.
Drinking enough water throughout the day is a great way to keep your body hydrated but it’s also great for your skin too! It’s recommended that men aim to drink 1/2 their body weight in ounces to stay adequately hydrated. Remember the quality of the water you’re drinking counts the most!
Treatments
Once you’ve got the basics down, you might also find it beneficial to give your skin an extra boost and come in for a treatment. This gives us a chance to analyze your skin and see if we can help build out your routine a little more by introducing more advanced products like a serum.
Here’s a list of services we offer that would be a great place to start!
