Let’s Talk About Men’s Grooming Skincare Routines
Maintaining your skin’s health with a good skincare routine is an important step in your everyday life. Skincare can often be related closely to beauty, so men’s skincare and grooming rituals can easily be overlooked. Enjoy healthy, radiant skin, no matter your age with our skincare routine for men guide in today’s post.
We have put together all the essential products that you should be including in your daily grooming routine, both in the morning and evening – and the order you should be using your products in, too. From cleansers to treatments, it's important you use the basics and keep your skin in tip top shape.
1. Cleanse
Cleansing your skin is one of the most important first steps you should include in your grooming routine. Using a good cleanser that’s especially suited for your skin type, both in the morning and in the evening, removes dirt and debris that can sit on your skin, and contributes to irritation and acne. If you have oily skin, a deep, purifying cleanser is perfect for removing excess oil. And if you have sensitive or dry skin it is best not to use a cleanser that is too harsh, but instead, removes dirt whilst moisturising your skin.
A daily cleanser that would be the perfect addition to a skincare routine for men would be the VENN Skincare Moisture-Balance All-In-One Face Cleanser. This Dermatologist tested cleanser provides your skin with a deep cleanse and gentle exfoliation with its careful formulation of humectants, Niacinamide, Panthenol and antioxidants. Suitable for all skin types, you cannot miss this power product making its mark in your daily skincare routine.
2. Toner
Once you’ve cleansed and removed the dirt and excess oil from your skin, you should follow with a hydrating and balancing toner. Many can forget this step, however, a toner can both add nutrients to your skin and enhance the efficiency of each skincare product you use in your routine.
To achieve all the benefits of a toner, we would recommend the Allies of Skin Molecular Saviour Probiotics Treatment Mist. Perfect for all skin types, this mist is multi-tasking, providing you with hydration and antioxidant protection. Formulated with a combination of soothing actives and restorative nutrients, your skin will be left feeling refined, with a minimised appearance of pores and imperfections.
3. Moisturise
Hydration, hydration, hydration. It’s not just for the dry or sensitive skin types. No matter what your skin type is, you should always moisturise both morning and evening, every single day. A good daily moisturiser will nourish and hydrate your skin, leaving it looking and feeling noticeably plump and healthy.
The Shakeup Cosmetics Face 4Ward Moisturiser will give your skin maximum hydration but with zero shine – so even if you have oily skin, you have no excuse but to add this moisturiser into your daily grooming routine. With a lightweight gel consistency, this moisturiser melts into your skin, giving you a much healthier complexion and diminishing any dry patches and dull skin.
4. SPF
Sun protection should be worn all year round - no matter how cloudy it is, UVA and UVB rays can still penetrate and cause harmful damage to your skin. Choosing a daily SPF that is both suitable for everyday use on your face, and for your skin type, is very important to ensure you are not compromising your skin.
If you are looking for a lightweight sunscreen so you don’t feel like you have too many layers of products on your skin from your daily skincare and grooming routine, the Ultrasun Face SPF30 is an ultimate fave of our FTF team and amazing customers alike. With its powerful blend of ingredients, not only does this sunscreen protect your skin from environmental aggressors, but it also reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone. Being suitable for all skin types, even sensitive skin, this is the perfect SPF to make it into any skincare routine for men.
5. Beard Moisturiser
Are you looking to grow your beard thicker, stronger or generally soften it? Using a beard moisturiser in your grooming routine can ensure your facial hair is kept nourished and hydrated for a healthy-looking beard – you shouldn’t just look after the hair on your head!
The Murdock London Beard Moisturiser is one of their best-selling products for an ultimate rescue remedy. Applying this product daily not only conditions your facial hair, but it also protects and moisturises the skin underneath for a more comfortable and healthier beard. Designed by barbers who have you in mind, this could even be a great addition to a skincare routine for a teen who may just be starting out on their beard grooming journey. This product has been specially created to look after all types of facial hair.
