Which one of us has never woken up with drawn features, dry or irritated skin from shaving, and a dull face? For many, this moment is the calm before the storm of the day, and starting it off right is important.
Men also take care of themselves and have an ever-increasing range of products at their disposal. Between shaving foam, shower gel and other face care products we have everything we need to care for our skin.
The importance of taking care of your face in the morning
We are all unique and so are our skins. For the lucky ones, a shaving foam is enough, without any further inconvenience, but the application of a moisturizing balm, Avene or Lierac, guarantees that the skin retains its suppleness and elasticity. You can find different types of aftershave, Avène offers a fluid product for those who prefer a less creamy feeling. Regular shaving aggresses our skin and sometimes causes cuts. Haemostatic pencils are extremely effective in such cases. Simply moisten it slightly and apply it directly to the cut to stop the bleeding and reduce the sensation of pain.
For difficult mornings, or after a very rich day, a shower is a pure moment of relaxation. Shower gels can be used to create a serene and calm atmosphere with gentle fragrances, or on the contrary, to add a touch of energy, especially shower gels for sportsmen and active men, with more powerful and masculine scents. Many manufacturers have a range that offers deodorants with the same fragrances to avoid unpleasant olfactory surprises.
Care products specifically designed for men
Other products are more intended for in-depth treatment, facials. Nuxe makes its know-how available to offer us an effective eye contour that is compatible with men who wear contact lenses, which acts on puffiness, dark circles and age marks. Other anti-ageing products, such as Avene and its thermal water, act directly on the structure and elasticity of the skin by stimulating the synthesis of Hyaluronic acid. It only takes a few seconds to apply and it erases the assaults of time, the skin regains its appearance and radiance.
Ingrown hairs are a scourge for men, painful, unsightly and potentially a source of infection, they are due to too much resistance of the skin which hardens with each shave. The hairs can no longer penetrate the skin and remain under it. Products such as Dermo K promote hair growth by softening the skin thanks to its keratoreducing agents. As a bonus, it reduces the risk of infection of cuts due to shaving, all without perfume and paraben!
We still have to take care of our hair, their maintenance can be ensured i.e. by the Vichy Dercos range (Aminexil clinical) and its 5 active ingredients that fortify the hair from root to tip, prevent hair loss and reduce micro imbalances of the scalp by an in-depth action.
