Every man’s skincare guide

Variable weather and everyday strain show on the face. When you use products suited to your skin and daily life, you don’t have to fear the chaos of multiple jars or a greasy feeling on your skin. We’ve gathered the best tips for quickly caring for even the toughest skin.

Skincare is like training: regularity and consistency matter, and miracles don’t happen overnight. To achieve results, skincare should be built into your existing daily routines so it doesn’t get skipped.

Quick 5-minute routine:

1. Wash your face and beard with a cleanser designed for them. Don’t use ordinary soap: its ingredients dry out the skin and can even increase the amount of impurities on it.
2. After cleansing, use a toner to hydrate, balance, and refresh the skin. Spray onto the face and let it absorb.
3. Apply one pump of serum to clean, slightly damp skin, either after washing or after toner.
4. Apply moisturizer all over the face and neck. If the moisturizer itself doesn’t contain UV protection, let it absorb for a moment and then apply a facial sunscreen on top.
   
   Pro tip! If you like, you can also mix the serum into the moisturizer and apply them together.

Longer self-care session:

1. Start with a shower. The warmth of the shower water helps open up the pores and softens the beard hair, making shaving and skincare more pleasant.
   • Wash your face and beard with a facial cleanser while in the shower
2. Also treat your face with an exfoliating product. When dead skin cells are removed from the skin surface, skincare products are absorbed better.
3. Shave your beard — style is up to you.
4. Dry the skin and apply your skincare products to the face in order of texture from thinnest (toner) to thickest (moisturizer and sunscreen).

A morning or evening skincare moment can be a small pause for yourself; a moment that refreshes or helps you relax. It doesn’t require much time, but perseverance and repetition produce reliable results.
