Although it was considered “girly” just a few years ago, something happened that made men realize they need proper skin care too . More product availability...

The truth of the matter is, the skin needs proper care, hydration, and protection from the sun, regardless of gender.

Men’s skin care has come a long way, though I suspect it will become an even bigger market over the next few years.

 

Men's skin is fundamentally different from women's due to differing hormones. While men face many of same environmental, stress, diet and aging issues as women, they can fall prone to unique problems of their own; so it's important to understand a few basic facts about your skin that can make maintaining a healthy, youthful look easy to achieve.

What is the perfect shave and why do most guys get it so wrong?

The perfect shave is what all men strive for every morning when they bring their razor up their chin – an effortless shave that’s baby smooth, and without any of the usual skin irritation, redness, and that burning sensation most guys seem to feel is par for the course when it comes to shaving.

Why do so many guys find this so hard to achieve? Because proper shaving has become a lost art. Shaving is one of those glorious male traditions that used to be passed down from father to son, but somewhere along the line, when shaving became more about cheap, disposable razors than a nice, precision-made metal tool in your hand, it became a brainless routine to rush through in the morning without even thinking about it. A dull disposable razor dragged across a layer of foam or gel on your cheeks is a step backward from the past, not an improvement. Now that men of all ages are paying more attention to their appearance, it’s no wonder that the hottest trend right now in male grooming is a return to the traditional wet shave – and millions of men have been shocked to discover that the “old fashioned” method of shaving they thought went out with the Hula Hoop is actually the best quality shave you can get. Check our guide to the best wet shaving tips.
