We all know that taking care of our skin is an important investment. We also know that it should be an essential part of our grooming regimen regardless of the weather. Fortunately, there are a few game-changing skincare tips for men to follow. From layering skincare products to using breakthrough serums, we’ve rounded up the best goods that are proven to be helpful if you want to put your best face forward. So if you want to tune up your grooming game, here are five game-changing skincare tips that will take your routine to the next level.
Switch to a gel cleanser
During the summer, our skin produces more oil and sweat due to the heat and humidity. This makes a gel cleanser ideal, as it is lightweight and refreshing – great for warmer days. Our top pick for a gel face wash is Kiehl’s Facial Fuel Cleanser. It’s infused with caffeine, vitamins and invigorating citrus extracts to refresh and wake up your skin everyday.
Invest in an eye serum
An eye serum? Sounds fancy! It’s lighter than an eye cream and absorbs quicker than you can say “dark circles”. Not only is it perfect for a morning pick-me-up, it’s also a night-time superhero. The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Eye Serum is the ultimate under-eye saviour, battling crow’s feet, wrinkles, bags, puffiness and dark circles. Add to cart!
Layer vitamin C with sunscreen
Did you know that layering vitamin C with SPF can further enhance its effects of protecting your skin against sun damage? One way to do this is by using a vitamin C serum, such as Garnier Even Matt Booster Serum, before applying Dior’s Protective Crème SPF 50 moisturiser. This combination not only provides sun protection, but also brightens the skin, making it an excellent choice for those with uneven skin tone. Here is a comprehensive guide to layering vitamin C and SPF.
Get a tinted moisturiser
Forget about photo filters, the real secret is a tinted moisturiser. It’s not make-up, it’s a moisture-packed saviour with the added bonus of a little colour. Origins Ginzing SPF 40 Energy-Boosting Tinted Moisturiser is the ultimate wingman. It’s lightweight, fits all skin types, and has SPF 40 to shield you from the sun’s UV rays. No filter required.
Protect your lips
Lip balm is a great tool for preventing dry and chapped lips, regardless of the season. The skin on our lips is super thin, which makes it especially susceptible to UV damage. What’s the best way to protect it? You guessed it – through sun care. That’s why Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Nourishing Lip Balm SPF20 is more comfortable to wear than slathering sunscreen on your lips every few hours.
