We know by now that more men are pursuing skin care regimen!
But how to really get a healthier, younger-looking Skin?
Have you ever watched a skincare commercial and think to yourself "Well, that's not for me. I'm a guy?" Well, fellas, it's time to shed the old stereotype because skincare my friends, is not gender-specific.
These days it's as common to see a dude dabbing eye cream onto his crow's feet as it is to see a woman doing the same. Men are embracing the art of skincare because we all want our faces to express our zest for life, not how tired we are after a long day at work. Healthy, youthful-looking skin means confidence, and who doesn't want more of that?
We can never repeat it enough “It is imperative Understanding Your Skin Type": It's "The Essential First Step".
You wouldn’t run a marathon without warming up, would you? Similarly, you can't choose your skincare products without first understanding the kind of skin you have.
Here are the common skin types:
Oily Skin: If your face shines brighter than a freshly polished shoe, you probably have oily skin. It's not all bad, though. I mean, think about that natural, radiant glow, lol.
Dry Skin: On the contrary, if your skin feels tighter than a brand-new pair of jeans, you likely fall into the category of dry skin. Pro tip - it doesn't mean it's time to put your cactus impersonation skills to test. Moisturize, guys!
Sensitive Skin: Does your skin start throwing a tantrum at the drop of a hat? If your face turns red more often than a tomato in a salad, then, my friend, you have sensitive skin.
Combination Skin: If you're as confused as a chameleon in a bag of Skittles, then you probably have combination skin. It's like your skin can't decide if it's #TeamDry or #TeamOily. Trust me, it's as frustrating as it sounds.

Now that we've got that skin type dilemma sorted, let's jump straight into the nitty-gritty of the daily routine. Don't worry, I promise it won't take more time than decision making over Netflix and chill on a Friday night.
Cleanse: You wouldn’t bake a cake in a dirty oven, would you? So, why would you apply products on a dirt-filled face? Grab a cleanser suited to your skin type and start your day on a clean note.
Exfoliate: If dead skin cells were a country, your face could easily qualify as a continent. Just let’s say “No judgments” ok! We've all been there. An exfoliator is your magical tool to kick them off your skin's surface and give way to fresher, livelier skin. But don't overdo it.
Moisturize: Think of moisturizers as your skin's best friend. No matter what your skin type is, do not, I repeat, do not skip this step.
SPF: The sun might be the best cook ever, helping you convert your food into energy, but it isn't that great for your skin. SPF is the unsung hero that protects your face from those harmful sunburns. Even for those who have melanated skin. And YES!!! Our precious black skin can burn, warm and peel because of the sun. So, we need to protect our skin from some harmful U.V.
There you have it fellas, the best and easy skincare tips. Remember, personal care is not vanity; it's sanity. So, dive into the world of skincare, because there's some truth to what they say - beauty really is skin deep...!
Talk to you soon Gentlemen!
