Their skin is thicker and most men shave daily.  Since men are less likely to prioritize good skin care than women, many appreciate simple but effective skin care for men tips.  ## **Here are a few skin care tips for men:** **Say NO to Bar Soap** Bar soap tends to strip the water and natural oils out of the skin, causing the surface of the skin to dehydrate.  Instead of soap try using a moisturizing cleansing gel that will give a deep pore cleaning, but won’t leave the skin feeling tight and dry. **Prevent Ingrown Hairs** The key to preventing ingrown hairs is by using the right shaving products and great razor. Choose a moisturizing shaving gel instead of cream that will instantly lubricate the skin, and soften the hair to be shaved, lessening irritation. If you are prone to ingrown hairs – you may want to consider Laser Hair Removal Treatments. Treatments can be done on the beard, neck, sideburns and even eyebrows.

Save a step by buying a moisturizer with sunscreen in it! The top cause of skin aging is exposure to the sun.  For this reason, year-round sun protection is essential.    Wondering which skin care products work best for men?  [Request a free skin analysis.](http://www.silktouchmedspa.com/visia-skin-analysis/) **Avoid using alcohol-based aftershave.** While many men like the clean and tight feeling associated with using alcohol-based aftershaves, these aftershaves can lead to dead skin cell buildup, keeping hair trapped in the skin, leading to more ingrown hairs and sensitivity.  Try a oil-free moisturizer to soothe the skin after a shave.   **[![Treatments for Men](https://hubspot-no-cache-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/99224/0efd06b3-9efc-460c-a780-efc7365029a2.png)](https://hubspot-cta-redirect-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/redirect/99224/0efd06b3-9efc-460c-a780-efc7365029a2) ** 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.silktouchmedspa.com/blog/easy-skin-care-tips-for-men#comments-listing) Topics: [Skin Care](https://blog.silktouchmedspa.com/blog/topic/skin-care), [For Men](https://blog.silktouchmedspa.com/blog/topic/for-men) [All posts](https://blog.silktouchmedspa.com/blog/all) ### Subscribe to Email Updates ### Recent Posts ### Posts by Topic -
