Skincare 101: An easy-to-follow routine for him
Taking care of your skin as a man is more important than you think. After all, men's skin has a different composition than women's skin and this requires a different approach. That's why men need a customized skin care regimen to keep their skin as healthy and optimal as possible. Because admit it, everyone would rather hear "Wow, you look radiant!" than "When was the last time you slept?". But how do you start a routine? And what skincare products do you need? Parfuma helps you on your way to a radiant skin!
| | PREVENT IRRITATION FROM SHAVING | | A shave can feel heavenly. But excessive shaving also
comes with drawbacks. Daily shaving stresses the skin
and removes part of the top layer of skin cells, which
makes the skin sensitive and prone to irritation.
To prevent this, it is important to use a (mild) shaving
gel so that the razor glides smoothly over the skin
and thus prevents wounds. An after-shave is
essential for a cooling and antibacterial effect.

CLEANSING AND EXFOLIATION |
|
Male skin is generally about 20% thicker
than female skin. The thickness of the skin is due
to the higher amount of sebaceous glands which also makes the pores larger. In short: more sebaceous glands = oilier skin
= more chance of impurities and acne. A good cleansing and weekly exfoliation are therefore extremely important. And believe us when we say that an ordinary hand soap or shower gel are not suitable for the cleansing of the face.

| | If there is one product not to be missed in a man's
bathroom cabinet, it is a moisturizer. The signs of skin
aging appear in a man later, but faster. The most prominent
signs of this are loss of muscle mass, sagging skin with puffy
eyes, dark circles around the eyes and (deep) wrinkles.
Using a moisturizing day and/or night cream with sun protection (SPF) can work wonders. When the moisture
barrier is in balance, you can prevent and remedy many skin
problems. Go one step further with an eye cream to say goodbye to dark circles, puffy eyes and fine lines.
