This habit, developed in his adolescence, dries out his skin, which toils for several hours after shower to recover its suppleness. He is not the only man I know whose skincare routine is almost non-existent. From family members to male friends, most tend to shun even the most basic of skin products \u2013 moisturizers and creams are women\u2019s stuff, they contend.<\/p>\n<p>Even post teenagehood, men\u2019s skin secretes more sebum than women\u2019s, often sprouting stubborn acne that lasts into adulthood. Although men enjoy higher collagen density than women, their skin exhibits deeper sun damage \u2013 only because men are not used to slathering sunscreen or using UV-filter products like women are. While shaving exfoliates men\u2019s skin, it can also leave it irritated and itching.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, men seem to resist daily care. Many beauty brands respond to men\u2019s aversion to structured skincare by offering simpler men\u2019s lines that often do not get the same marketing attention or high price tags women\u2019s do. Yet, men can adopt some simple steps \u2013 and products \u2013 that would help them fight age and pollutants without demanding more than several minutes in front of the mirror.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Replace the soap with skin-type appropriate facial wash<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most mild face washes unclog pores without dehydrating the skin. Try <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sephora.com\/charcoal-face-wash-P398713?skuId=1734649&amp;om_mmc=ppc-GG_378477159_27752557839_aud-290121270867:pla-56128534817_1734649_95787538359_9020757_c&amp;country_switch=us&amp;lang=en&amp;gclid=Cj0KEQjwyZjKBRDu--WG9ayT_ZEBEiQApZBFuFlM-1syuqxIAibdvVP7mKbfsjVdC-Fe7JoL5MLmbbgaArWo8P8HAQ&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds\">Clinique Charcoal Face Wash<\/a>,\u00a0whose natural charcoal concoction sucks out impurities and, at the same time, soothes the skin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Embrace after-shower moisturizers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some avoid moisturizers because of the discomforting, heavy feeling they prompt. Yet, not all moisturizers are created the same. Opt for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.clinique.com\/product\/1626\/45042\/mens\/skincare\/moisturize-protect\/clinique-for-mentm-maximum-hydrator-activated-water-gel-concentrate\">Clinique Maximum Hydrator Activated Water-Gel Concentrate<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 its ultralight formula contains liquid spheres of antioxidants that wash away imperfections.<\/p>\n<p><strong>D0 not forger the sunscreen<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Although thicker than women\u2019s skin, men\u2019s skin is equally susceptible to harmful UV exposure, which triggers the formation of wrinkles and discolorations. Hence, sunscreen is essential yet often overlooked part of men\u2019s skincare. Try <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ulta.com\/age-shield-face-sunblock-lotion-spf-110-with-helioplex?productId=xlsImpprod1930087\">Neutrogena Age Shield Sunblock<\/a>, whose light, oil-free formula absorbs quickly to both protect and hydrate the skin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fight the wrinkles around the eyes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Delicate and thin, the skin around the eyes often shows the first signs of aging and stress. <a href=\"https:\/\/anthony.com\/shop\/high-performance-moisture-eye-cream\/\">Anthony High Performance Continuous Moisture Eye Cream<\/a>\u00a0contains a bunch of natural ingredients like shea butter, jojoba oil, carrot root extract and caffeine that not only reduce fine lines but also diminish dark circles and puffiness.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite my insistence to ditch it, my husband relies on a regular bar of soap to wash his face.
