Men, it’s time to get serious about your skin. Whether you want to look younger or you’re dealing with skincare concerns and you’re not too sure where to start, no-one’s too macho for a nice face wash!

Wash away impurities

First stop – washing your face. If you’ve been using soap or just water, it’s time to find a cleanser that’s formulated for your skin type. Regardless of whether you’ve got dry or oily skin, there are plenty of cleansers and face washes for men to try. Consider Men Hydra Sensitive Soothing Daily Face Wash, our daily face wash for men that’s ideal for sensitive skin. Not only is it packed with six essential oils, but it’s enriched with Northern Birch Sap (well known for its self-generating powers).

Exfoliate with a face scrub

Exfoliating is all about removing dead skin cells from your face, helping to unclog your pores and counteract dry, flaky skin. L’Oréal offers a range of face scrubs for men that you might want to stock up on. Why not go for our Pure Charcoal Purifying Daily Face Wash? It’s an ideal face scrub for men who are just starting out on their skincare journey, giving you the foundation you need to target imperfections like spots, blackheads, roughness, and oily skin.

Apply an eye cream

Of course, you don’t want to neglect your eyes. From puffiness to dark circles, tired-looking eyes are a sure-fire sign of ageing. Fortunately, there’s a solution: eye cream. If you’re on the hunt for the best eye cream for men, L’Oréal has you covered. Enriched with Guarana and Vitamin C, our Hydra Energetic Anti-Fatigue Eye Roll-On is anti-bags and provides a refreshing, ice-cool sensation that’s sure to keep you looking alert.

Hydrate with a face moisturiser

Next up, moisturisers. Literally everyone can benefit from moisturising – it’s the best way to keep your skin nourished and hydrated. L’Oréal has a broad range of face moisturisers for men, but one of our most popular options is the Hydra Energetic Turbo Booster. Enriched with Creatine to help you fight signs of fatigue, it’s a wonderful option for newbies to the men’s skincare routine game. Be sure to apply it when your skin is still damp (immediately after you step out of the shower is ideal!).

Remember your anti-ageing cream

One of the main reasons men suddenly take an interest in skincare is a desire to fight wrinkles and other symptoms of ageing. And why not? Sure, you can age gracefully, but who wouldn’t want to put the handbrake on, at least for a little while? Thankfully, there are many anti-ageing creams for men to explore. Try Vita Lift Anti Ageing Eye Cream. It’s specifically designed for men and can reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and bags under your eyes.

Don’t forget a weekly face mask

Finally, it’s time for a face mask. There are tons of potential benefits associated with face masks, including firmer skin, increased hydration, refined skin pores, and diminished fine lines. In other words, it’s the perfect way to close out any men’s skincare routine. But what face mask should you use? Our Pure Charcoal Purifying Clay Mask, enriched with Charcoal and absorbing Kaolin Clay, has been explicitly designed to cleanse men’s skin and protect against spots and blackheads. 

And there you have it, a blinding men’s skincare routine in six simple steps! Even if you’ve never considered skincare before, it’s never too late to start, so why not get started? We’re pretty sure that once you notice how much more refreshed and vital your skin feels, you’ll be a skincare for men enthusiast, just like we are!
