Welcome to ManSkincare

Did you know that men's skin is different from women's?

Products meant for women's skin aren't recommended for men's, and vice versa. So ladies, avoid handing over your skincare products to your husband - even if his skin is dry, he's developing laugh lines or he has a pimple on the end of his nose!

It has smaller sebaceous glands

Contrary to popular belief, sebaceous glands in men are smaller than those in women. But since the absorption of active ingredients is primarily through these glands, which function in association with the microcirculation of blood, active ingredients and textures in skincare products must be adapted to this physiology.

It is oilier

Although sebaceous glands are smaller in men, testosterone generates a relatively higher amount of secretions. From the age of 50, these secretions slow down in men. Conversely, while sebaceous glands are larger in women, they secrete less because of estrogen production. This is why men's skin is oilier than women's and requires appropriate care. It is also more subject to acne and blemishes.

Shaving

Shaving is part of men's the daily tasks. A proper shaving provides a better skin condition and a nicer skin effects. Remember to get a quality razor such as a Merkur Razor, and remember to change regularly your razor's blades to ensure they keep sharp for the best shave.
