When it comes to male skin grooming, most of us need to give their man a little help. Here are some tips to get your husband into the good habit of caring for his skin so he can put his best face forward.
Tip #1: Schedule him a facial.
Trust us when we say, men LOVE facials. They love the pampering from the face, neck and shoulder massage and they enjoy feeling their skin super clean and baby soft at the end. They’ll rarely book a treatment on their own, but they’ll love you for it. It makes a great gift for his birthday and, who knows, maybe he’ll request it every year.
Tip #2: Post-facial
Buy him his own skin care products. We recommend an easy skin care routine for a man to follow after a facial treatment, so be sure to follow their advice by purchasing the products for him to use at home. As long as the routine is easy (a face wash and moisturiser) most men should be able to commit to it. Note: While they don’t mind occasionally stealing your products to use, it’s best to get him his own products recommended exclusively for his skin type.
Tip #3: Compliment him on his skin.
We all love to hear that our efforts are working. You’ll notice his skin looks better, but it always great to let him know too…
Tip #4: Pick up refills of his favourite skin care products.
Obviously, when the products run out so do the results he’s getting for his skin. Not that you have to run around after him, but a guy doesn’t always feel comfortable popping into a chemist or beauty department of a shop to buy his products so you may need to do this for him or encourage him to shop online.
Tip #5: Schedule a yearly mole check for you both
Men won’t necessarily take the time to check moles on their own, so by booking a joint appointment with a dermatologist or doctor if you have any concerns, is a great way to both get checked. Skin cancer is serious business so it’s well worth a check.
Bottom line: Men WILL care for their skin if doing so is made fairly easy.
With your support, he can be sure to look good and feel good.
