How to Solve the 5 Most Common Skin Care Concerns for Men

As the body’s largest organ, our skin is incredibly tough. It’s resilient enough to withstand nasty falls, cuts and scrapes, as well as stave off infection and prevent dehydration. But no matter how tough our skin is, we all have our fair share of skin care problems. For men, these concerns can range from persistent acne to dark bags under the eyes.

The good news is that there are solutions for these common skin care concerns. Here are the five skin care problems that men face and how to fix them.

GOT ACNE?

Acne

Struggling with hormonal acne as a teenager was difficult enough. Why is it still a problem for many guys in their 20s and 30s?

Acne can carry over into your adult years for multiple reasons. Our genetics, lifestyle and acne products can be contributing to our breakouts.

One common cause of adult-onset acne is stress. Adult men are under incredible pressure to excel at work and in their personal lives, look a certain way and be emotionally strong. When we’re stressed out, the result is often acne flare-ups that can make us even more stressed.

The Fix: A men’s acne treatment system, along with a proper skin care regimen, can help alleviate symptoms of acne. You can also potentially reduce acne symptoms by eating acne-fighting foods such as salmon, nuts, broccoli and blueberries.

CONTROL EYE BAGS

Dark Circles

Waking up with dark circles and tired eyes can make any man look old and downright exhausted. Whether the bags under your eyes are caused by lack of sleep, poor eating habits or simple genetics, one thing is certain—they aren’t a good look for men at any age.

Young and vibrant-looking skin can give you a competitive edge in the workplace, while appearing tired and defeated can do the opposite. Dark circles are no longer just a nuisance. They can potentially hurt your career.

The Fix: As more men grow concerned about their image at work, many are turning to eye creams. The best eye cream for men should be formulated to reduce puffy eyes and dark spots, hydrate the skin and smooth fine lines and wrinkles.

GOT WRINKLES?

Wrinkles

As we age, our skin begins to lose its elasticity. While men may seem to age slower than women, we aren’t immune to wrinkles or fine lines.

For men, the first signs of aging can begin showing in their late 20s. While you can’t hold wrinkles off forever, you can slow down the aging process by taking good care of your skin early.

The Fix: Firming serums for men can significantly reduce the appearance of crow’s feet (aka laugh lines), which can make your eyes look much older than you truly are. Look for a men’s firming serum with retinol, which is known to increase collagen production which is key to the prevention of wrinkles.

Sunburn

Gentlemen, take a good look at your father’s face. How often did he use sunscreen growing up?

The importance of using sunscreen wasn’t drilled into our father’s generation—not like it was for us. Even today, men generally don’t realize how vital sunscreen is until much later in life.

It’s no secret that the sun’s UV rays are bad for the skin. In addition to an increased risk of skin cancer, spending too much time in the sun can lead to premature aging.

The Fix: Sunburn isn’t something that only happens in the summer. It’s important to wear sunscreen every day, whether it’s the dead of winter or cloudy outside. You can make it easy on yourself by using a men’s moisturizer with SPF to hydrate the skin and protect it from UV rays.

Eczema

Red, itchy skin can be a sign of eczema, a chronic skin condition which results in scaly patches of skin. Also known as “atopic dermatitis,” eczema is both a nuisance (due to the constant urge to itch) and unsightly to look at.

The Fix: Unfortunately, eczema isn’t curable. However, it can be controlled by giving it the moisture it needs. With a regular skin care routine, you can reduce the redness and itchiness. Just be sure to find a treatment that is gentle on sensitive skin.

As you can see, men struggle with their skin just like women do. Whether it’s acne or wrinkles, having trouble with your skin can negatively impact your self-esteem.

With a proper skin care regimen, you can achieve better-looking skin. Just be patient—some systems can take a couple of months before you finally start seeing results.
