Improving your skin doesn't have to mean a complicated skincare routine

 

How can you make your skin look better? Smoother? And most importantly - CLEARER?

What’s the one simple step that will improve your skin so much?

It’s easy… washing your face every day.

Because if you’re not washing your face every day (with the right product) then it’s inevitable… Your skin isn’t going to look as good.

So start with ….

 

Tip #1: WASH YOUR FACE EVERY DAY

Now washing your face is something that a lot of guys still think they don’t have to do.

But you have to make this a priority.

If you think about it your face comes into contact with dirt and bacteria every single day. Couple this with a buildup of dead skin cells and excess oil, and you can see that this all needs to be cleared away.

Why?

Because if the pores of your skin become blocked with oil, dead skin cells or bacteria then you’ll get redness and pimples.

You see breakouts occur when:

  • too much oil is produced by your skins sebaceous glands
  • dead skin cells accumulate and clog your pores
  • bacteria build up in your pores

Essentially, when bacteria breed in a clogged pore and the oil is unable to escape (because it’s blocked by dead skin cells), a whitehead pimple and inflammation appears. 

 

So you know why you need to wash your face....what’s the best way to do it?

Well firstly, step away from the soap! (And don’t use body wash either).

Your facial skin is different. It’s much more sensitive than the skin on the rest of your body. So if you use a normal body soap on your face it will dry out the delicate facial skin and make it red. (We go into it in more detail here: “Face wash vs soap: which is better?

You need a good quality face wash that will clean away dirt and excess oil - but without stripping it dry. This is super important. Because dry skin can easily lead to irritation and redness.

You want a facial cleanser which is gentle enough to use twice a day – and effective enough to remove the gunk without making the situation worse.

You also need to exfoliate away dead skin cells so that they don’t have a chance to block your pores and make your face look red. 

The solution?

Our non-drying Daily Face Wash.

It cleans and gently exfoliates in one step to leave your skin glowing - not dry, not irritated, but smooth and CLEAR.

Daily Face Wash contains an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (an AHA), Lactic Acid - which exfoliates away dead skin cells and stops them from blocking pores and causing breakouts. But it does it in a very gentle way.

Why is this important for your skin?

Well, it means that you can safely use it every day to keep your skin looking brighter and clearer – but with no risk of the irritation that facial scrubs can cause.

We also included anti-bacterial Tea Tree Oil, soothing Aloe Vera and hydrating Glycerin to make sure your skin feels smooth and soft as well as looking clear.

Best Face Wash for Clearer Skin

 

 

Daily Face Wash essentially fights breakouts on three fronts:

  1. Regulating excess oil production
  2. Dissolving away dead skin cells
  3. Keeping your pores free of bacteria

And it does all this WITHOUT drying out your skin.

 

How often do I need to wash my face?

Try to wash your face twice a day.

Once in the morning. Once in the evening. And also after sports (to clear away the sweat which can irritate your skin).

It only takes a minute.

Just 60 seconds and you’re good. Nice smooth, clear skin.

Then follow that with moisturizer.

 

Tip #2: MOISTURIZE YOUR FACE

Again this is something that only takes seconds, but is definitely worth it.

Your skin will look noticeably better.

Because whatever your skin type, every man  benefits from a daily moisturizer —even (especially!) if you have oily or acne-prone skin.

Moisturizing keeps your skin healthy and functioning properly. It prevents signs of aging appearing, and keeps you looking your best.

And to smooth, hydrate and mattify your skin our lightweight Hydrating Daily Moisturizer is hard to beat!

It’s super lightweight and absorbs really easily.

It feels like there’s nothing on your skin, and yet throughout the day it:

  • hydrates and smooths your skin (without unbalancing it and causing breakouts)
  • reduces the early signs of aging, especially the fine lines around your eyes, and
  • prevents those wrinkles from becoming deeper.

It’s packed with the hydrating superstar Hyaluronic Acid to moisturize, and rich in anti-oxidants to keep your face looking clear and smooth.

How clear and smooth? See for yourself.

Even better…

Hydrating Daily Moisturizer is an anti aging powerhouse which boosts your cell renewal and reduces any fine lines and wrinkles.

It regenerates your skin, promoting collagen production and minimising the look of large pores so you end up with firmer skin.

Plus it has a really clean, fresh scent.

 

 

WHAT TO DO NEXT

If you do nothing else, just using these two products is going to guarantee that your skin looks clear and smooth.

 

 

And to carry on the improvement…

Tip #3: STOP TOUCHING YOUR FACE

As much as we want to believe our hands are always clean, they’re probably not!

When you think of all the things you come into contact with every day – door handles, keyboards – bacteria is certainly being transferred onto your fingers.

So when you touch your face you transfer it straight onto your skin (and right into your pores!) Which will cause acne and irritation.

So just be aware of how often you touch your face - and try not to!

 

 

Tip #4: DON’T SQUEEZE PIMPLES

Squeezing a pimple isn’t going to make it disappear – and it certainly won’t make it heal!

The only thing it does is make it worse! Causing inflammation. Making it look even redder and more noticeable. So don’t!

Just let the pimple go through all its stages naturally until it fades away. That way it’s not going to leave any marks or scars.

But if you’ve gone past that point… don’t worry!

Tip #5: DRINK LOTS OF WATER 

To keep your body performing at optimum level, you need to keep it well-hydrated.

And the same applies to your skin.

If you want to keep your skin looking clear, drink plenty of fluid throughout the day.
Water is best – no calories, no sugar and no additives!

 

 

Tip #6: WATCH YOUR STRESS LEVELS

Increased levels of stress lead to hormone imbalance - which leads to breakouts. 

So whether it’s meditation, reading or just going for a walk – try to schedule some stress relieving activities into your day. And your skin will look clearer and calmer for it.

And finally..

 

Tip #7: ALWAYS USE CLEAN TOWELS AND PILLOWCASES

Your towel and your pillowcase come into direct contact with your face, so make sure to change and wash them regularly.

Even though they may look clean, they can both collect a ton of dirt, bacteria and oil that you can't even see.

And when this transfers on to your face (and collects in your pores) it’s going to cause pimples and breakouts.

So change and wash both of them at least once a week.

And always keep a separate small towel to dry your face. Don’t use the one that you use for the rest of your body.

And don’t let anyone else use it either – only you.

FAQ’s

What causes acne?

Acne appears when the pores of your skin become blocked with oil, dead skin cells or bacteria.

Breakouts occur when:

  • too much oil is produced by your sebaceous glands 
  • dead skin cells accumulate and clog your pores
  • bacteria build up in your pores

So when bacteria breed in a clogged pore and the oil is unable to escape (because it’s blocked by dead skin cells), a whitehead pimple appears.
