Skin care is something that everyone can enjoy.
And it’s no secret that skin care for men is becoming a huge trend. So what are some ways men can pamper themselves?

Masking
Masking is a huge trend across all facets of the skin care trend right now. Our very own Sales Director, Dave Albers, noticed this at the WBC show back in January 2018. He noted that Clubman Pinaud’s Charcoal Peel-off Mask was a huge hit amongst the attendees there. The Clubman Pinaud brand has been around since 1810, I wonder if they ever thought they’d be selling masks for men in 2018? Either way, these masks have been selling extremely well. There are also entire skin care lines, like Kiehl’s, catered to all the masking needs any man would ever need.
Facials
More and more barber shops are offering facials as additions to beard trims and hair cuts. But they’re not the only ones, estheticians are getting in on male-specific facial services too. Even skeptics are experimenting with this new trend. These facials are mainly tailored to men because they deal with problems that men may experience, like razor burn and acne, as well as ingrown hairs.
Moisturize
Here at Intrinsics, we are a huge fan of moisturizing. If you’re not moisturizing, you’re missing out. Though men have a higher collagen density than women, it’s important to note that consistently using a moisturizer can be beneficial for anyone. Just make sure you’re applying it with a Silken Wipe to refrain from wasting expensive product. Men love Silken Wipes too!
But why?
Men’s skin is 25% thicker than women’s, meaning it is also tougher. When a man shaves, his face experiences a fairly intense exfoliation, therefore leaving it more prone to breakouts if not treated correctly. Depending on how often you shave, this may irritate you more or less. In addition to all of these benefits, men need a good skin care routine. Skin care regimens will keep your skin healthy and allow for you to take some time on self care.
