5 easy skincare tips that every man should follow
Men too have their share of ‘beauty woes’. Daily cleansing and shaving
can take a toll on their facial skin. Regular use of moisturizer is one
way to regain the softness, says an expert. Dr Navin Taneja, director of
the National Skin Center, suggests how to keep men’s skin soft.
Hot water and long showers remove oils from your skin so, limit your shower time and use lukewarm water to bathe.
Use mild cleansers to avoid dryness. Strong soaps can rip off the
moisture from your skin and make it dry and rough. Since you use them
daily, it can affect the skin in the long run. These days, there are
special shower gels for men which you can opt for. You can even choose
one depending on your skin type like sensitive, oily, etc.
To protect and lubricate your skin, apply cream, lotion or gel before
shaving. Use a clean and sharp razor. If your skin is too itchy or dry,
it can lead to cuts. Also, if you find your face itchy even after the
shave, apply a moisturizer or lotion to soothe it
Find a moisturizer that suits your skin type and makes your skin feel
soft. There are various brands available in the market these days. If
your skin is too dry, opt for a heavier lotion which is more creamy in
base. If your skin is more oily, choose an oil-free moisturizer to keep
it hydrated. For normal skin, choose an everyday lotion which is not too
heavy but adds a layer of protection on your skin.
If you can’t find time to moisturize your skin, after bathing, gently
pat your skin dry with a towel so that some moisture is retained in it.
