Men have evolved from the old days of soap bars and washcloths and embraced on skin care products. This has seen more men wanting to know more about skin care treatment and what the best product in the market to use is.
Let me first educate the difference between male and the female counterpart. We all know that male skin has a thicker epidermis (skin outer layer) and the dermis (inner layer of the skin).It is also prone to heavier oil glands and this makes male skin more different.
Male skin is 20% thicker, more toned, contains more collagen and elastin, there is more activity in the sebaceous glands (oil producing gland) and it ages later.
So the regular skin care products aimed at women will not be effective when used by male skin. The need for products that work but also a quick fix.
However not wanting to follow the skin care regime consisting of cleansing, toning, exfoliating, and mask and moisturising, they want to wash and go.
The simple truth is if you don't exfoliate by removing the dead cells and debris, no moisturise will be able to penetrate efficiently making any product less effective.
The point about the product isn't about the price but how effective is it for your skin.
Here are a few selections that would suit all types of males:
One which you need to win the lottery first: Elemis R1080, La prairie cleanser R850
Enterpreneur: Clarins R360, Lab serious R470
The 9-5 type of guy:Loreal men expert R160 and Nivea R110
The student in tertiary Michael game R85
