Shaving is about more than your beard. It doesn’t matter how close your shave is if the process leaves your skin red, dry & irritated or full of razor burn & ingrown hair. Plus, there’s the rest of your face to think of. Healthy-looking skin plays a major role in confidence. Because we all know if you look good, you feel good.
We’ve got tips & tricks to help you step up your shaving game and make sure you’re taking care of your skin.
MEN’S SKIN FACTS
Men’s skin is 25% thicker and has a tougher texture due to testosterone levels. It has more collagen, so aging seems slower. But production decreases 1% year starting around age 30. Men have larger pores and glands that produce up to 20% more oil which can leave skin “greasy”.
