Do you think you have an advantage over women?

Technically yes! Your facial skin is usually thicker than women’s and less likely to be sensitive to the ingredients in facial cleansers and moisturizers. And since men typically don’t wear makeup, skin care is also a simpler procedure.

But shaving is another story. If you have heavy beards or curly or course hair, irritation and razor bumps can be a big problem. Most men prefer bars to liquid cleansers. That’s fine as long as you have normal or oily skin. But bar soap can tend to dry skin out more than liquid cleansers because of all the harsh chmicals used in them.

If you insist on bar soap, look for soaps with special blends of cold/expeller pressed and unrefined plant oils of Olive, Coconut, Ethically Harvested Palm Kernel, Rice Bran & Castor with Butters of Shea and Cocoal and jojoba oil, as well.

As for Liquid cleansers that contain Aloe Vera, Vitamin A, C, E and Natural Botanical Extracts to help maintain a natural moisture balance are your best choice.

Some soaps say they are laced with moisturizer, and for some they may work fine. But the best way to moisten your skin after washing it is to apply a moisturizer that is made for your skin type.

For extra dry skin, choose a cream, which is the thickest formulation.

For normal to dry skin, reach for a lotion, which is lighter and less oily.

For oily skin, choose a lighter oil free lotion or gel.

For blemished skin try a gel moisturizer
