A Simple Skincare Routine for Men
Shine by midday, skin that feels tight after shaving, tired-looking eyes, or no routine at all? You don't need ten products. A few lightweight steps done consistently cover the basics.
Our products work for any skin, regardless of gender. These are the ones we'd suggest for a straightforward routine.
Why men's skin needs a little care
Many men have somewhat oilier skin, and daily shaving can leave skin feeling dry or irritated because it removes a thin layer of the skin's surface along with the hair.
Sun exposure adds up over years of commutes, yard work and weekends outside, and it's one of the biggest causes of visible aging.
A short routine that cleans, hydrates without heaviness and protects from the sun helps skin look and feel more comfortable and balanced.

Frequently asked questions
What is a basic skincare routine for men?
Cleanse, moisturize and use sunscreen every morning, and cleanse and moisturize at night. Adding an antioxidant serum in the morning and an eye product at night is optional but helpful.
Do men need different skincare products than women?
Not really. Skin works the same way regardless of gender. Men may have oilier skin and deal with shaving, so lightweight, non-greasy textures are often the best fit.
What should I use after shaving?
A gentle, lightweight moisturizer helps skin feel comfortable after shaving. Avoid products that sting, and apply sunscreen in the morning if you'll be outdoors.
Do men need sunscreen every day?
Yes. Daily broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher helps protect against sunburn and the sun damage that contributes to visible aging, even on cloudy days.
