Skincare is for everyone. It’s not about gender; it’s about looking after yourself. Most guys exercise regularly, eat a healthy and balanced diet and ensure they are getting enough sleep, but a skincare routine beyond splashing your face with water will do you some good.
Here is where Sodashi’s Mankind Collection can help - made in Australia and loved by men around the globe. We offer men an uncomplicated, effective collection of skincare products, crafted specifically for men’s skin with pure botanical ingredients that help you to invest in your skin health.
What makes men’s skin different?
Due to testosterone men have skin that’s structurally different from women, which means the skin has unique needs. Men’s skin is generally thicker and more resilient, it is usually oilier and can be prone to congestion. Men have more collagen, so it will show signs of ageing a little later than women. And of course, men shave. Some on a daily basis which can cause sensitivity and ingrown hairs.
Three steps you can follow for better skin…
1. Cleanse
Cleansing is an important first step toward healthy skin, it removes the buildup of dirt, pollution and oil that accumulates during the day and freshens the skin in the morning.
Clean Skin Cleanser and Shaving Emulsion has been designed to tackle this with ease. It’s a dual action product activated with white clay that deeply cleanses but can also be used as a shaving emulsion. Botanicals of lime, cedarwood and cypress have antiseptic and decongesting properties plus macadamia oil maintains the correct moisture balance and prevents sensitivity with shaving.
2. Face Mist/Toner
Toning or Misting helps calm the skin post shaving and restores the skins natural PH, it also adds a hydration boost and prepares the skin to soak up your moisturiser. Sodashi’s Skin Karma Aftershave and Face Mist can be spritzed after cleansing or shaving and has essences of Sandalwood, Rosemary and Ylang Ylang to cool, calm and hydrate.
3. Moisturise
One of the quickest and easiest ways to improve skin health is to moisturise. It eases dryness, delivers nutrients, reduces signs of aging and protects. For men it’s also important to counter the daily effects of shaving. Sodashi’s Sleek Moisturiser is a light weight and non- greasy moisturiser. It has a blend of avocado and macadamia which are packed with vitamins and essential fatty acids plus essences of Lavender to balance sebum and Sandalwood to soothe post shaving.
Feel you can level up…
An exfoliant once a week does wonders to clear pores, and smooth rough patches. Use Sodashi’s award winning Enzyme Face Polish weekly after cleansing to reveal a healthy complexion. Finely ground rice powder buffs away dead cells, while pomegranate enzymes brighten the skin.
