Whether you are a man or a woman, skin is just skin, isn't it? IIt is our first line of defense against toxins and harmful pollutants. It regulates body temperature and regulates the amount of water and electrolytes. It fulfills the same functions for everyone.
Still, there are some key differences between women's and men's skin – enough that men should consider a Skin care routine and use products specially formulated for them.
Men's skin is around 25% thicker than women's and has a higher density of collagen in their skin
Is Men's Skin Really Different?
What is the difference between men's and women's skin?
"Men's skin is about 25% thicker than women's and has a higher density of collagen in their skin," he says Alana Henrikson, Eminence Organics Product Support Representative. Nevertheless, nature was not completely unfair to the “fairer sex”: The collagen content in men decreases with increasing age, but at a constant rate. In comparison, women's collagen levels remain constant and suddenly drop after menopause.
"These are some of the reasons men tend to age more slowly or the changes may not be as noticeable," says Alana. Men also sweat more than women, and their skin has more sebum due to testosterone. Excessive sebum makes men more prone to oily, shiny skin, large pores, and acne. After all, shaving brings a whole host of problems that women don't face, such as irritation, Inflammation and sometimes infection. Men are also more likely to develop rosacea, which makes blood vessels on the surface of the skin visible and causing redness.
A simple skin care regimen for men
What types of skin care products and what daily treatment are best for men? Like women, men have to do all of the basics: cleanse, exfoliate, tone, moisturize, eye care and sunscreen. Daily skincare should also include a variety of more potent serums, concentrates, and oils that double the specific benefits of skin care. And a face mask once a week only enhances the good work your everyday life is doing on your skin.
