Moisturizer for Men

Does every man need to use a face moisturizer? Well, a lot really just depends on what your skin type or current condition is. As men age, facial skin tends to become less hydrated. This is natural since both collagen and elastin decrease with age. This affects you skin’s elasticity, plumpness, and radiance. Okay, you may not be too familiar with some of this terminology if you’re not really into skin care. However, there is nothing wrong with a good moisturizer for men, and I’ll tell you why.

Moisturizer for men essentially hydrates the facial skin or top epidermal layers. In turn, this can assist with dryness, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and even minimize irritation caused by the weather. The question is; what face moisturizer is right for you, and do you necessarily need one? First of all, if you have oily skin, then you likely do not want to massage in a cream or lotion every day. Simply wash your face morning and night, and be sure to apply a good sunscreen in the morning before heading out.

As for men with skin types like normal, dry, combination or even sensitive, a good moisturizer will likely benefit your grooming regimen. To give you an idea of some that are out there, a few good ones to try are Pevonia For Him Age Defying Caviar Balm ($74), Sharps Barber and Shop Daily Prep Tuning Lotion ($24), or Jack Black Double Duty Face Moisturizer SPF 20 ($26). I personally prefer the latter because it works well and has a sunscreen built in.

It is important to realize that moisturizer for men is not the same as moisturizers created for women. Men generally have oilier, thicker skin, which is taken into consideration when face lotions and hydrators are developed for guys. Therefore you probably don’t want to just slap on some of the wife’s heavy night cream and call it good.

Do not be intimidated by the cost of men’s moisturizer and face hydrators. The cost can vary from $10 to several hundred dollars. So there is pretty much a price range suitable for everyone. If you want to pay the least possible, but still get a good product, check out Nivea for Men in local drugstores. Furthermore, just because a certain men’s face moisturizer costs more, does not mean it is better or more effective.

Go ahead and add a moisturizer to your daily grooming regimen and watch the difference it makes in your skin. Not only will your face look smoother and more hydrated, it will also start to look younger and more radiant. Hey, it will only take about two minutes out of your day!
