It’s not just a marketing ploy. Men really do need skin care products special to their skin for optimum skin fitness. Here are the skin facts:

• Men’s skin is thicker than women’s skin and contains more collagen
• Men have thicker facial hair and the constant shaving creates a tougher, rougher skin (sort of obvious, but it’s worth saying)
• Men have larger pores and oilier skin

So what does all this mean?

Not all skin types are made equal and not all skin care products will work for every skin type – male or female. It’s important to use the products that are right for you, not necessarily because you can find them in your girlfriend’s medicine cabinet or because you think they smell good.

Instead, use products designed for oily skin. Use skin products that will moisturize and heal before, during, and after shaving. And last, just because you have thicker skin than women, doesn’t mean you won’t benefit from anti-aging products. The good news is that you might not need them until later in life.

One very popular product line for men is Menscience. Try the daily wash or many of their other products for great skin fitness.
