Why Is a Good Skin Care Routine Essential for Men?
Your face and exposed skin, such as the neck and hands, are the first areas visible to the world. A lack of proper skin care routine steals the natural shine from the skin and makes it look dull and lifeless.
Beauty may be in the eyes of the beholder. But skin health very much vests with you. Adding a bit of shine and health to your skin is essential. The bonus – you will look and feel marvelous.
There is a solid awareness of women’s skin care. But when we’re talking about men, the situation is completely different. A routine most men follow is limited to shaving and using body gels and sprays, which does not even cover basic essentials.
Skincare vocabulary such as cleansing and moisturizing may seem daunting. But they are simple to understand and can do wonders for your skin when done right.
Men Need a Skin Care Routine Because of Their Body Make-up
The skin of men and women is almost the same. But men have thicker hair follicles than women do.
As a result, secretion of sebum – natural body oil – is increased in men. In addition, collagen and testosterone levels are also increased. These biological changes demand a deeper skin care routine for men.
Men are also as prone to acne, wrinkles, and dark spots, as women. Apart from genetic make-up, lifestyle factors have an impact on the skin. For example, men who spend more time outdoors are more vulnerable to skin damage from the sun.
As biological, genetic, and environmental factors are at play, a strict skin care routine becomes even more significant for men.
Follow the Pack
While following the pack may not always be beneficial, doing so comes in handy in the case of skincare. It is estimated that the men’s grooming industry will witness over 60 million in revenue by 2030. This is an indication of the changing perspective of men toward grooming, skin care, and health.
Regular use of skin care products transforms your skin. You can have radiant, young, and supple skin. Moisturizers, for example, keep your skin hydrated. Adequate hydration improves skin appearance and elasticity. Your skin looks and feels tight and younger as never before.
Why deprive yourself of an opportunity to look younger, healthier, and more presentable?
How to Develop a Good Skin Care Routine?
- The availability of a range of skincare products in the beauty market can make selection overwhelming. Your skincare routine doesn’t have to be expensive or confusing at all. A basic routine involving products that cleanse, moisturize and protect your skin is enough. Given here is a guide to developing a solid skincare routine that works just right for you:
- Start With Cleansing Cleansing is the first step of any effective skincare routine. An effective cleanser removes impurities from the surface of your skin. Some effective formulations, such as those by WOW Skin Science, go deeper into the pores to eliminate impurities completely. All that dirt, debris, and product build-up are removed by a cleanser. Keeping your pores clean is key to preventing breakouts of skin conditions such as acne.
- Exfoliate
Exfoliation offers a deeper cleaning. It is especially beneficial if you have oily or combination skin (oily and dry in parts). Men with such skin types are more vulnerable to dark spots and acne. You may want to exfoliate a week thrice to see noticeable results.
Exfoliation removes impurities and dead skin cells, which can clog pores, leading to increased sebum production. Excess sebum is one of the major reasons for acne.
The skin eliminates dead cells as part of the body’s natural process. But elimination is not complete, which is why exfoliation is essential.
Choose a high-quality exfoliator with only natural ingredients to exfoliate your skin without any side effects.
- Apply a Moisturizer
A range of factors, including sun exposure, pollutants, and even your lifestyle, can dry your skin. A moisturizer is crucial to replenish lost fluids from your skin. For example, if you use hot water for bathing, your skin loses its natural oils. In addition to your daily dose of water, use a moisturizer to keep your skin happy.
- Give Your Skin Good Sun Protection
Harmful UV light is a major reason for fast-aging skin. You can use sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or more. If you are looking for maximum skin protection and nourishment from sun damage, then products with Vitamin C can help.
For the best results, apply your sunscreen 30 minutes before going out. This is enough time for the sunscreen to get absorbed into the skin. Your skin will be well-protected when you go out in the sun.
Introducing the Activated Charcoal Face Wash Gel for Men
When it comes to deep pore cleansing, do not look beyond the Activated Charcoal Face Wash Gel by WOW Skin Science. This face wash is enriched with activated charcoal – an intense detoxifying agent – that penetrates deep into your skin to eliminate impurities. The best cleaning comes from within, which is what this face wash does.

Benefits of the Activated Charcoal Face Wash Gel for Men

Tea tree essential oil is another natural ingredient in this formulation. This essential oil has excellent anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties. Regular use prevents acne breakouts and soothes any inflammation symptoms such as redness.
There is no better moisturizing agent than aloe vera extract, the other ingredient in this face wash. Aloe vera keeps your skin hydrated without being sticky.
Vitamin E in the face wash is a top anti-inflammatory agent. It is soothing on the skin and eases symptoms of inflammation. The face wash is quickly absorbed into the skin, enabling the ingredients to deliver their skin-benefiting impact faster.

- Vitamin E is another ingredient in this ACV-powered formulation. This vitamin softens skin, minimizes damage to skin cells, and helps skin retain moisture. With Vitamin E, you can ensure protection from environmental factors that may irritate your skin.
The presence of vitamin E boosts the efficacy of the face wash so that you get maximum benefits for your skin.
