Male grooming tips

With summer approaching and the changes in the weather, it's important you look after your skin. It's vital to nourish your skin, especially when shaving, to make sure your skin's texture is preserved.

Nourish

We can all experience periods of sensitive skin, redness, as well as irritation as the season changes. The temperatures are still quite cool. So it is important to nourish your skin. There are some great facial products around and some fantastic products for the entire body.

Acumen

Take all the time you need to apply the products. Do not drag the product on your skin. Use your hands to massage the product in; using your finger tips on acupressure points on your face and the reflexology points on your feet.

Face

There are several facial products available with varying textures of skin. It depends on what is appropriate for each individual.

The following products are fine for sensitive skins, with some great for specific skin conditions.
The Dr. Hauschka Rose Day Cream is a great all round day cream. Rose oil and wild Rose Hip extract renders this rich, wonderfully scented cream. It soothes redness and calms skin, a great choice for dry, sensitive and mature skin types.

Shaving

Make sure you shave with the way your hair grows - downwards. This helps to prevent skin bumps and lumps and is also useful to make sure you get fewer white heads.

Skin discolouration
