3 Simple Steps to Healthy Skin: Men’s Edition
June is Men’s Health Month—an ideal time to talk about an often-overlooked part of wellness: men’s skincare.
Let’s be honest: many men skip the skincare aisle entirely. A quick rinse in the shower or a splash of cold water might seem like enough, but real skin health takes a little more intention. That doesn’t mean it has to be complicated. A great skincare routine for men can be fast, effective, and easy to stick with.
Whether you're just starting out or helping the man in your life build a routine, these three steps form the foundation of a high-impact men’s skincare regimen.
Step 1: Cleanse + Exfoliate
Clean skin is the first step toward healthy skin. Most guys grab the nearest body wash or bar soap—which may clean the surface, but they often leave skin tight, dry, or irritated. The key? Use a product formulated specifically for the face.
The AGELESS total facial cleanser is a go-to multitasker that simplifies your skincare routine. It’s a daily-use cleanser that also gently exfoliates, helping to remove excess oil, buildup, and dead skin cells.
If you shave regularly, this is an especially smart choice. Its glycolic acid blend helps reduce post-shave irritation and can prevent ingrown hairs.
Why it works:
- Removes dirt and oil without over-drying
- Gently exfoliates to improve skin texture
- Helps reduce blackheads and razor bumps
Just apply a small amount to damp skin, massage gently, and rinse. You’ll start your day feeling fresh, clean, and ready for what’s next.
Step 2: Balance + Restore
Shaving, sweat, sun exposure, and city pollution can all take a toll on your skin—leading to dryness, redness, or an uneven appearance. The second step in your skincare routine for men is about putting hydration back in.
That’s where a serum comes in. We recommend the ORMEDIC balancing antioxidant serum—a lightweight, botanical-based formula that delivers hydration and environmental protection without feeling greasy.
Powered by organic Japanese green tea and copper-complex peptides, it helps your skin bounce back after environmental or physical stress.
Why it works:
- Deeply hydrates and calms irritation
- Absorbs quickly with zero residue
- Strengthens skin’s natural moisture barrier
Use it morning and night after cleansing. It takes just a few seconds but makes a noticeable difference in how your skin looks and feels.
Step 3: Moisturize + Protect
Think you don’t need sunscreen? Think again. Daily sun exposure—whether you’re outside for five minutes or fifty—is the leading cause of premature aging, dark spots, and skin cancer.
That’s why this last step is non-negotiable: always moisturize with SPF. We recommend DAILY PREVENTION™ pure mineral hydrating moisturizer SPF 30.
This sheer, mineral-based formula offers broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays, all while delivering lightweight hydration. Unlike some sunscreens, it blends smoothly with no white cast and doesn’t feel greasy.
Why it works:
- All-mineral SPF 30 shields against sun damage
- Hydrates with botanical ingredients
- Non-comedogenic
- No white cast
Apply it as the final step in your morning routine—and enjoy invisible protection that works as hard as you do.
