Did you know that men's skin is 20 per cent thicker, 70 per cent more oily, and 40 per cent more sweaty than women's skin? Case in point; a skin care routine for men is not a luxury, it's a necessity. After all, acne, fine lines, wrinkles, premature ageing, and hyperpigmentation, aren't bound by gender. Curating a skin care routine for men entails finding the right products and ingredients that work for your skin type while addressing your concerns. Now, there are two ways in which you can do this: dive deep and do your own research, or trust the women to guide you (because we've done plenty of research). Either way, here's our comprehensive guide to the ultimate skin care routine for men!, handpicked by women...because when it comes to skin, we do know best!
"Men's skin, particularly the dermis (the deepest layer of skin) is around 20-25 per cent thicker than women's skin," explains consultant dermatologist, Dr Manasi Shirolikar. "They also have more active sebaceous glands and more visible pores due to a higher androgen level in their bodies, and produce more sebum than a woman would." Adding to this, Dr Madhuri Agarwal, MD, founder of YAVANA Aesthetics, states that environmental exposure, stress levels, and testosterone hormones also impact men's skin, which is what makes it different from women's skin. Contrary to popular belief, however, men don't require separate products. A skincare routine for men should instead include products catered to their skin's type and needs.
Men tend to face excess oil production and therefore deal with skin concerns such as acne, blackheads, whiteheads, and clogged and enlarged pores. Due to shaving as well, razor burns, ingrown hair, irritation and inflammation are also common occurrences. "Also, while men may show signs of ageing later in life, they are visible in the form of saggy skin, dark circles, fine lines, and wrinkles, their appearance and skin's deterioration accelerate," adds Dr Shirolikar.
Cleanse - Start your skin care routine for men by opting for a gentle face wash for men that suits your skin type — remember to wash your face twice a day. Look for cleansers that contain active ingredients so that you can target the required skin concerns. "Avoid bar soaps," warns Dr Agarwal. "You can also use chemical exfoliants that contain salicylic acid or glycolic acid once a week." This helps exfoliate the skin, remove dead skin cells, cleanse clogged pores, and so much more! Treat - This can be in the form of a face serum and/or a moisturiser. Opt for an ingredient-focused approach—look for ingredients that help target your concerns. When it comes to your moisturiser, Dr Agarwal recommends using a gel-based formula if you have oily skin and a lotion if you have dry skin.

Skin is skin, so why the disparity with gender? A skin care routine for men doesn't require an extensive 10 or 12-step process, but neither does it follow the 'one-product-fits-all' approach. With the right CTP routine by your side, maintaining healthy skin from within and keeping all the unnecessary woes at bay couldn't be simpler.
