Did you know that men’s skin is actually different from women’s skin? Men have thicker skin and produce more sebum, which can lead to oily skin and clogged pores. Men also tend to shave more often, which can cause irritation and sensitivity. Natural skincare products can help to soothe these issues and improve the overall health of men's skin.
Taking care of your skin isn't just for the ladies. If you want to maintain a fresh and youthful appearance, it's time to get serious about your skincare routine. But where do you start? Read on to find out.
Taking care of your skin is just as important as hitting the gym or eating healthy. But when it comes to skincare, many of us may not know where to start or what products to use.
Plant-based oils and extracts, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants found in natural skincare products can nourish and protect the skin while also fighting free radicals. They can also help balance sebum production and soothe irritation caused by shaving. By avoiding harsh chemicals found in many traditional skincare products, natural skincare products can help maintain healthy and youthful-looking skin for men.
Why Use Natural Products for Men's Skincare?
The synthetic fragrances and harsh chemicals that lurk in many skincare products can do more harm than good. They can leave your skin looking and feeling worse than before, causing dryness, redness, and those pesky breakouts. But natural skincare products, on the other hand, are made with gentle ingredients from nature like plant-based oils, extracts, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. These goodies give your skin the love it deserves, nourishing and protecting it from damage and irritation.
But be warned - not all skincare products are created equal. So, it's crucial to read the labels and avoid harmful chemicals like parabens, sulfates, phthalates, synthetic fragrances, and mineral oil. For example, parabens may be used to preserve your face cream, but they've been linked to cancer, so steer clear. And while sulfates can make for a great lather in your cleanser or shampoo, they can strip away your skin's natural oils and leave it feeling parched. And don't even get us started on phthalates - those sneaky chemicals used to make fragrances last longer. They can mess with your hormones and cause all sorts of trouble down the line.
Men's skin is thicker and oilier, making it prone to clogged pores and breakouts.”
Benefits of Natural Skincare Products
The skin is the largest organ of the body, and it is exposed to many environmental pollutants and irritants on a daily basis. It's important to keep in mind that what you apply to your skin goes directly into your bloodstream. This is why it's crucial to limit the amount of toxic ingredients in your skincare products. Choosing natural products made from gentle ingredients derived from nature can not only benefit your skin but also your overall health. Natural skincare products offer numerous benefits, including nourishing and protecting the skin, soothing irritation, fighting free radicals, and being environmentally friendly.
Natural skincare products are made from ingredients that are derived from nature, such as plant-based oils and extracts, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. These ingredients are often gentle on the skin and can provide numerous benefits, such as:
- Nourishing the Skin: Natural products can help nourish and protect the skin, providing it with the nutrients it needs to look healthy and radiant.
- Soothing Irritation: Many natural ingredients have anti-inflammatory properties that can help soothe skin irritation, redness, and inflammation.
- Fighting Free Radicals: Natural products contain antioxidants that help neutralize free radicals, which are unstable molecules that can damage the skin and accelerate the aging process.
- Being Environmentally Friendly: Natural products are often produced using sustainable and eco-friendly methods, making them a better choice for the environment.
A Simple Yet Effective Skincare Routine for Men
Starting a skincare routine doesn't have to be complicated. In fact, it can be quite simple and straightforward. With a basic routine that includes cleansing, exfoliating, toning, and moisturising, you can achieve healthy and radiant skin. Our natural products are specifically designed to work together to provide your skin with the nourishment it needs.
Here are the essential components of a facial skincare routine:
1. Cleanse:
Cleansing is an essential part of any skincare routine. It helps remove dirt, oil, and impurities that can clog pores and lead to breakouts.
Start with a gentle cleanser like our Cleanse My Face Oil. It deeply cleanses without stripping your skin of natural oils, which can cause acne and wrinkles.
2. Exfoliate:
Exfoliating your face helps to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores, leaving your skin looking brighter and smoother.
Some of the ingredients in modern-day exfoliants are truly scary, for you and the environment. We’re all about micro-milled natural ingredients not micro beads. Rice, Argan and Myrrh powders are just some of the ancient remedies in our award winning Complexion Polish that help to even skin tone, increase circulation, cell activity and stimulate collagen production. We recommend using 2-3 times a week and adding a little Cleanse My Face to supercharge the mix.
3. Tone:
A toner helps to balance the pH level of your skin and removes any remaining impurities after cleansing.
Our product, Hydrate My Face, is a natural, alcohol-free toner that helps to soothe and hydrate the skin. It contains a blend of botanical extracts, including aloe vera and witch hazel, to help calm and rejuvenate the skin. Hydrate My Face can be used throughout the day to refresh and hydrate the skin, making it a versatile addition to your skincare routine.
4. Moisturise:
Moisturising is essential in your skincare routine to hydrate and nourish your skin, prevent dryness, and maintain a healthy skin barrier.
Traditional cream-based moisturisers often contain chemicals that can strip natural oils and cause dryness and irritation. Unlike cream moisturisers, oil-based serums do not block pores and increase acne. They can actually help balance the skin's sebum production and allow oil to flow freely. For oily or acne-prone skin, look for a non-comedogenic oil-based serum.
Specifically designed for mens skin, our H.I.S Face and Beard Oil is a must-have. This blend of natural plant-based oils like argan, jojoba, and hemp seed oil will keep your skin and beard moisturised and healthy. Plus, it contains intelligent remedial essential oils to soothe irritation and reduce inflammation.
Alternatively our Love Your Face Serum is another option that is uni-sex and specially formulated with natural antioxidants and potent ingredients to provide deep hydration, improve skin texture and tone, and combat fine lines, dryness, redness, and sun damage. Skipping this step can lead to dryness, flakiness, irritation, and premature aging of the skin.
A proper skincare routine doesn't have to be complicated. With these four easy steps and our natural products, you can achieve healthy, nourished, and radiant skin.
