Men's facial skin

There are not many men who follow their appearance. This is usually followed by women. However, problems with the skin of the face arise in the representatives of the brutal half of humanity.

Difference of man's face skin from female.

Male skin of the face is different in structure from the female skin. Male skin has a thicker horny layer and more collagen, because of this it is thicker by 25%. It easily tolerates sun rays and cold, and is also more resistant to injury. The skin of the face in men is coarser and darker due to the large number of capillaries. On the other hand, the male skin is periodically injured during shaving. According to statistics, men face acne more often than women. Skin on the face due to the production of sebaceous glands gains shine, but on the other hand it loses less moisture and is less prone to early wrinkles.

A problem like acne usually occurs between 12 and 20 years. At this age there is a process of puberty. Increases the production of sebaceous glands and may change the composition of sebum. Because of this, the holes of the excretory ducts are clogged, and the risk of inflammation rises. To avoid the appearance of acne from 11 years old, the child should buy scrubs for young skin and gel for washing. When the inflammation will help cream and ointments with salicylic acid and zinc. When using these drugs, the balance of skin fat content will be normalized and the rash will become less.

Skin and shaving.

Many men get irritated after shaving. This is due to the fact that when the shave is thinning the stratum corneum, the barrier function of the skin becomes worse and the skin experiences a constant effect on itself. When a person's skin is not very sensitive, it is good to use electric shavers, as this causes minimal damage to the skin. But if the skin is irritable, then after shaving it is necessary to apply antibacterial agents with a healing and soothing effect. Creams and lotions (with vitamin E, with panthenol, with aloe, with menthol, etc.) in our time can easily be purchased at pharmacies and stores. A woman can buy them as a gift for any occasion. Colognes and eau de toilette should not be used after shaving. Because of the high content of alcohol, the skin suffers. This can lead to redness and burning.

Use some tips. If you have sensitive skin, apply a shaving foam. After eating, blood circulation increases, hence the risk of cuts increases. Therefore shave better on an empty stomach. When shaving, lead the shaver in the direction of hair growth, and shave the neck from the sides inside. This will reduce the risk of irritation.

Age-related skin problems.

In men in the period from 25 to 40 years, the facial skin becomes dull. In the skin of the face, male activity decreases - the process of collagen and elastin production slows down, because of this the skin becomes drier, the skin of the face dims. To combat these problems, you need to start using (after 30 years) cosmetic products specifically designed for men's skin. They protect the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation, from dehydration, as well as from the appearance of the first wrinkles. In our time, there are many such means.

Unlike women's cosmetics, men's products contain a large concentration of active ingredients. After all, the men's skin is thicker, and the smaller concentration of these components is simply not suitable for them. Some women use men's cosmetics and achieve the desired effect much faster.

After 40 years, men gradually reduce the concentration of hormones in the blood. Because of this, in the man's face skin, the synthesis of elastin and collagen fibers is reduced. The top layer of the skin is compacted. As a result, the rate of division of the basal cells of the skin slows down and age wrinkles appear. It is recommended to regularly use means for exfoliating the skin (once a week), as well as moisturizing and strengthening means (every day). This will help maintain a balance of moisture and stimulate the synthesis of skin collagen.

Men do not often follow their skin, so women come to the aid of their relatives. Be healthy and beautiful!
