Welcome back! Today I’m breaking down a simple, realistic skincare routine for men that actually works. Whether your entire routine is still just soap and water or you’re ready to level up, this video will guide you through the essentials. We cover cleansing, moisturizing, sunscreen, shaving tips, ingrown hairs, seborrheic dermatitis, rosacea, and optional add-ons for those who want to go further. Men’s skin is structurally different from women’s skin. It is thicker, oilier, more prone to clogged pores and irritation from shaving, and more likely to develop certain skin conditions. Men are also at a higher risk for skin cancer, which makes a consistent routine and daily SPF especially important. This video is a complete beginner-friendly guide.
