Men’s Skin in Theory

In your 50's, you may be going through some hormonal changes and have noticed a significant change in your skin. You may start to notice that your skin has lost its elasticity and density and is starting to sag and droop. Hopefully you were applying anti-aging creams on your face and neck in your 30s and 40s to keep it as uplifted as possible.

Skin cells are also not recreating as fast and your skin has started to lose its moisture. Furthermore, you may have noticed that you started to develop age spots on your skin. A great product such as Vichy Neovadiol Ultra-Densifying Brightening Care Anti-Age spots SPF15 can not only help restore some of the density in your skin but also help to reduce the intensity and size of existing age spots. The sun protection in the product can also help protect your skin to prevent new spots from reappearing.

First off, men's skin tends to be much thicker and rougher than women's skin. This is why women seem to see the effects from the sun on their skin much quicker than men do. However, since men's skin is much thicker to help withstand the daily aggressions from UV rays, it also has another aggravation that women do not have to deal with. Most men shave their face on a daily basis and though their skin is thicker, this daily routine contributes to a more sensitive skin that is prone to redness and inflammation. It is important to protect this sensitive skin by always applying an anti-irritating shaving foam before shaving such as the Avene Shaving Foam followed by a soothing after-shave product like Clarins After Shave Soother.

Though men have smaller sebaceous glands than women, their skin is in fact much more oilier than women's. This is due to the male hormone testosterone that causes their cells in the skin to produce more oil. This excess of oil often leads to more acne related problems so it is important to pick an appropriate cleanser like L'Oreal Men Expert Pure and Matte Scrub followed by a moisturizer that helps to matify the skin and control sebum production by Vichy Homme Normactiv Cg Fluid

Lastly, men's skin does age differently than women's. Fortunately for men, due to their thicker skin, they do age later in life than women. However, it does catch up with them much more quicker, especially in the eye contour area. To keep that youthful looking skin and prevent puffiness and dark circles, apply an eye cream daily along with your anti-aging moisturizer.
