Homemade Tips For Every Man And Woman

By | December 18, 2020

We know what you’re thinking….”I’m a dude, I don’t need beauty tips.” The truth is if you care about the health of your skin, your hair and your body (which you should!), then you need to have a bit of a beauty regimen. With these simple beauty tips for men, you’ll be able to keep your body happy without much work.

1. MOISTURIZE YOUR SKIN

You take care of all the organs inside your body, but what are you doing to care for your largest organ – your skin? An adult carries around about 8 pounds of skin, so you need to make sure it’s healthy. Moisture is the number one way to keep your skin healthy. Drink plenty of water. And if your skin still feels a little dry, apply lotion after you shower. Use a body lotion on, well, your body and get a face moisturizer for your face.

2. PROTECT YOUR FACE WHEN YOU SHAVE

Shaving can cause irritation and in-grown hairs. Ouch. Plus, men’s skin is more prone to sensitivity, so if you’re not using a shaving cream when you groom your face, you need to be. Look for shave creams with soothing, anti-oxidant ingredients. We like Aveda’s Men Pure-Formance shave cream. If you struggle with redness when you shave, a soothing shave cream will save your skin. Notice we didn’t say shave gels. Gels tend to have more alcohol, which increases the risk of dry skin.

3. CLEANSE YOUR FACE

Women aren’t the only ones who need to wash and cleanse their faces. Pollution, dust, sweat and dirt from just daily activities can clog your pores. At the end of the day, you need to wash your face to clean all that gunk from your skin.

Cleansers help remove excess oil, so if you struggle with acne or oil, you’ll want to add a daily cleanser into your morning or night routine.

4. USE SHAMPOO FOR MEN

Men’s scalps are different than women’s. A man’s scalp is more likely to become itchy, irritated and react poorly to certain ingredients. Because of this, men should use hair products tailored to them. A man’s scalp also tends to produce more oil than a women’s, so you need a shampoo that can cleanse hair without over drying it. You need to find a shampoo built for men to keep your hair and scalp happy without drying either out.

5. MEN CAN USE CONDITIONER TOO

You may have heard that guys don’t need conditioner. If your hair is under two inches, you might be able to get by without using it, but if you have longer hair, you’ll definitely want to add a bottle of conditioner to you shower shelf. Conditioner will add back any moisture your shampoo strips away.
