Exfoliation — Out with the old and in with the new!
You pride yourself on taking good care of your skin. You've found just the right cleanser, toner and moisturizer and you're faithful to your skin care regimen. So why, suddenly, does your skin feel like sandpaper, look dehydrated and dry, and blackheads are more visible? Most likely you're in need of a good exfoliation treatment.
What is it and why do you need it?
Basically, exfoliation is a technique for removing dead skin cells from your face and body. Scrubs containing granules (we like
Jack Black's Face Buff for the face and
Anthony Logistics Sea Salt Body Scrub for the body) gently buff away the daily grime while getting the blood flowing. Removing the old dead cells kick starts the cell renewal process and revitalizes the complexion, leaving a smoother canvas.
A skin mask can quickly salvage winter-weary or over sunned skin, softening, brightening and smoothing it in one easy step. Men's oily skin responds best to a mask that's fortified with natural clay, which tightens, tones and clarifies as it dissolves dead cells and removes pore-clogging debris on the skin's surface.
Exfoliation may sound a little less than "manly", but it will keep your face cleaner, minimize ingrown hairs (ouch), and keep your skin looking fresh as it can be. So call it whatever you need to, if you want to manify it… face blasting, flake attack, oil obliteration, etc… just do it a couple times a week and you'll look good as new.
Finish up with a moisturizer containing SPF protection because you don't want that
smooth, sensitive new layer of skin going out there with nothing on it!
