Let’s be real, most men don’t want a 10-step skincare routine. They want something quick, effective, and low-maintenance that actually works.
Great skin isn’t just for the girls. Healthy skin is human — and when it takes less than 3 minutes, there's really no excuse.
Here’s the no-BS guide to men’s skincare, with just the essentials:
Step 1: Cleanser
Men’s skin tends to be oilier and thicker, so a good cleanser is non-negotiable. It removes sweat, dirt, and bacteria from your face and beard — without stripping your skin.
My picks:
-
Deep Clean - Detox Cleanser
-
Purify - Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser
🧼 Use it: A quick cleanse morning and night - Yes, men can cleanse their skin twice a day since their skin is oiler and thicker than us girls. (But girls, don't do this and stick to a double cleanse at night only!).
Step 2: Serum
Lightweight, super effective, but men don't want "glass skin".
My picks:
-
Rescue – great for redness, inflammation, or sensitive skin (especially post-shave).
-
StemFactor – the anti-aging, cell-renewing secret weapon. Helps with texture, tone, and fine lines — without being “extra shiny.”
🧪 Use it: Right after cleansing. 1-2 pumps, pat it in. Done.
Step 3: Moisturizer
You might not think you need moisturizer, but trust me, you do. It keeps your skin barrier strong, prevents premature aging, and makes your face feel (and look) better.
My picks:
-
Youth Daily – lightweight, hydrating, and packed with nutrients.
-
Quench – simple, clean and very lightweight.
🧴 Use it: After your serum.
Step 4: SPF
If you care about aging well, protecting your skin from sun damage (and bluelight damage) is non-negotiable.
My pick:
-
Bio Shield SPF – a broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen that also hydrates and protects from UV rays, blue light, and environmental damage.
☀️ Heads-up: It has a slightly “dewy” finish — which some men might not love. But it’s insanely good for your skin.
TIP: This Routine Isn’t Just for Men
Ladies - this system works just as well for you. In fact, I recommend it for women in their 30s who want a simple, effective, skincare routine.
-
Dealing with acne or inflammation? Use Rescue.
-
Skin is in a good place and you’re focused on anti-aging? Use StemFactor.
The Bottom Line
You don’t need an entire shelf of products. You just need the right ones. These four steps cover all the bases: cleanse, treat, moisturize, protect.
Keep it simple. Stay consistent.
