4 Simple Skincare Routine for Men

I know the concept of skincare routine sounds alien to some men. Some find it rather awkward applying lotions, moisturisers, exfoliants etc., on their skin all the time. It’s something for women, they may say forgetting that everyone stands to gain a lot from giving their skin adequate care. I can bet that only a few men pamper their skins to the extent of keeping up with a skincare routine.  The rest are probably content and comfortable with going to the bathroom, bathing, applying body cream and then some nice perfume and that’s all. Skincare isn’t for women alone. There are skincare routines for men and if you think the idea of skincare should be left for ladies alone, then this article should convince you. You don’t have to worry that the skincare routine for men may be as complex as the one for ladies.  These four simple skincare routine for men are as simple as the title implies, trust me.

1. Wash Your Face Twice a Day

Wash your face when you wake up in the morning and just before retiring to bed at night. When you wash your face, you take off the dirt and excess oil that have settled on your skin and the ones that found their way into your pores. It will also help in preventing breakouts and clogged pores. Imagine doing this twice a day every day of your life. That’s a great step to having a healthy face! You should always wash your face before using any moisturiser or skincare product. Doing this ensures that you are not inhibiting the potency of the product.

2. Exfoliate Your Face Twice A Week

 After washing your face, you should scrub off dead skin cells capable of clogging your pores thus leading to breakouts. This is called exfoliation and it should be done twice a week to avoid excessive scrubbing off of the skin. Exfoliation gives room for healthy skin cells to live on the surface of the skin, giving you a glowing complexion while wading off wrinkles.

3. Moisturize Every Day

Moisturising rehydrates your skin and helps restore the nutrient lost while washing your face or exfoliating. It also protects your skin from bacteria and prevents dirt from clogging your pores. Before you make use of any moisturiser, you should know your skin type. If your skin is a dry one, apply enough moisturiser to ensure your skin looks and feel hydrated. If you have an oily skin, use a small amount of moisturiser and apply it evenly on your skin. Using it excessively only worsens your oily face.

4. Show Your Beard Some Love

To keep your beard clean always, use a beard shampoo, conditioner and some oil. This will help make your beard look better and attractive always.

Writing has always been a part of me. From writing stories as a young child to studying Communication Arts in the university, it has always been more than a medium of expression to me.

And then one day, I found myself toeing the path of an entrepreneur and becoming a fashion enthusiast. This made me develop an interest in content marketing and copywriting which I've been chasing alongside my fashion career.

That aside, when I'm not sharing style articles, selling with stories, or creating fashion-forward pieces for Ria Kosher, you'll find me telling wild stories that always come with a twist.
