Essential Skin Care Products for Men
More often than not, when we are discussing skin care products,
the ensuing conversation tends to focus on products for women.
Although most skin care products are designed with women in
mind, there is a growing market for quality skin care products
for men. A number of forward thinking companies have
acknowledged this untapped market, and have released a number of
products designed for men. I recently reviewed some of these
products, with the help of a male friend. The following are some
of the best in skin care products for men.
Neutrogena has released an excellent line of products, available
in two specific product categories; Skin Clearing and Razor
Defense. The Skin Clearing line is designed to help men that
have problems with Acne. This category includes a facial wash,
shaving cream, and an after shave astringent. The Razor Defense
series is intended for use by men with no specific skin
conditions and includes a gentle face scrub, shave gel, and face
lotion. They all have a fresh, clean smell and are highly
effective.
Aveda also offers some wonderful products for men. Their
products are designed with the highest quality standards, and
they include a number of certified organic ingredients. The
Rosemary Mint Shaving Gel is absolutely incredible. It has
organic lavender, marjoram, peppermint, and rosemary in it. It
also has coconut-derived moisturizers that assist in providing a
smooth, friction-free shave. Aveda also has a shampoo/body bar
that provides an invigorating wash. It is made with coconut and
almonds, both of which are very good for your skin.
We also sampled a number of fine products from Jurlique. We
purchased the Men's Deluxe Travel Kit which included shaving
gel, foaming face cleanser, antioxidant moisturizer,
moisturizing lotion, as well as shower and shampoo gel. The
travel kit even came with its very own face towel! All of the
organic ingredients in these products are grown in southern
Australia, and they are included in these products using a
unique biointrinsic extraction process. Jurlique is a wonderful
company with some excellent products that come highly
recommended.
There are a lot of quality products on the market for men. I
would recommend trying a number of different products, in order
to find the one you like best. While using quality skin care
products may not be a significant priority for men, we hope that
through education and insightful information this will change.
Men may not care to learn the truth about eye creams, but they should care about
taking care of themselves. Ladies, perhaps you could give them a
helping hand?
