This takes up a lot of time in terms of a daily routine, not to mention how long it can take to find a shaver that does a good job. Luckily nowadays you can just search &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gearsurfer.com\/electronics\/best-electric-shavers\/\">shavers reviewed<\/a>&#8216; and get some guidance so that&#8217;s one problem solved. In addition, a man\u2019s skin is about 25% thicker than a woman\u2019s, and the texture is tougher due to higher testosterone levels. Men also have larger oil glands and pores so there\u2019s more oil, meaning in general men have oilier skin and can be more acne-prone. On the other hand, shaving exfoliates skin regularly, which is a good thing, but it can also irritate skin or cause ingrown hairs. Men also have more collagen, so their skin may seem to age slower than women\u2019s.<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_the_best_way_to_take_care_of_my_skin\"><\/span><strong>What\u2019s the best way to take care of my skin?<\/strong><!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph --><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\nIn general, given the similarities and differences, men can use the same dermatology-inspired R+F Regimens women do, but sometimes a little differently. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/soothe-regimen\/p\/HSORG001\">SOOTHE Regimen<\/a> is helpful in keeping up the moisture barrier and relieving sensitive skin too. Try the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/soothe-calming-gel-cleanser\/p\/SOWA125\">SOOTHE Gentle Cream Wash<\/a> as a face cleanser <em>and<\/em> shave lotion. Skip the Moisture Replenishing Cream if your skin feels oily. In the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/spotless-regimen\/p\/UNRS001\">SPOTLESS Regimen<\/a>, try the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/spotless-daily-acne-wash\/p\/UNSW125\">Daily Acne Wash<\/a> prior to shaving to gently exfoliate and wash away oil, reducing the appearance of shine and leaving skin feeling clean and refreshed. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/unblemish-regimen\/p\/HUNRJ001\">UNBLEMISH Regimen<\/a> has a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/unblemish-gentle-exfoliating-acne-wash\/p\/UNWA125\">Gentle Exfoliating Acne Wash<\/a> which can be used prior to shaving to deep clean and unclog pores and help eliminate blemishes. The bio-degradable beads in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/reverse-deep-exfoliating-cleanser\/p\/RVWA125\">REVERSE Deep Exfoliating Wash<\/a> do the work for you to reduce dry cells and allow your razor to glide over smoother-feeling skin. And in the REDEFINE Regimen replace your Daily Cleansing Mask with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/micro-dermabrasion-paste\/p\/ENPS125\">Micro-Dermabrasion Paste<\/a> on damp skin to soften the beard and reduce dry skin cells that clog pores, and help prevent ingrown hairs and razor burn. Rinse, pat dry, then shave as usual. You can also address specific issues with add-on products, like tackling puffiness and tired-looking eyes with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/active-hydration-bright-eye-complex\/p\/ENHEY15\">Active Hydration Bright Eye Complex<\/a> that brightens and soothes fragile skin around the eyes.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"My_skin_sometimes_feels_uncomfortable_and_looks_reddish_what_can_I_do_about_that\"><\/span><strong>My skin sometimes feels uncomfortable and looks reddish, what can I do about that?<\/strong><!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph --><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\nYou can still be a strong, protective and active guy but know that just as you can be sensitive, your skin can too \u2014 we won\u2019t tell! In fact, men are just as likely to have sensitive skin as women are, but they\u2019re less likely to say so. You can have a genetic predisposition that makes you more susceptible to the environment, including stress, climate change, travel, sun exposure, cosmetic overuse and friction or rubbing. The SOOTHE Regimen is designed to relieve dry, irritated sensitive skin and visible redness by helping restore the moisture barrier with lipids and non-irritating ingredients that calm and soothe skin. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/soothe-rescue-mask\/p\/SORMF50\">SOOTHE Rescue Mask<\/a> contains calamine to neutralize irritants and reveal softer, smoother-looking skin in just 10 minutes and also reduce visible redness over time.\n\nAlso pay attention to what triggers redness, you may have rosacea, a skin condition. If you determine what might initiate that flushed look, you can make better choices! Internal triggers such as coffee, alcohol and spicy foods can cause redness. Too many sweets can create a more acidic environment where bacteria thrive and pustules form. Externally, the sun, heat, pollen, pollution or being rough with your skin can exacerbate redness and irritation. If it\u2019s severe, you may want to seek out a diagnosis and treatment from a dermatologist.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ive_heard_men_have_a_lot_of_hormones_that_contribute_to_acne_whats_up_with_that\"><\/span><strong>I\u2019ve heard men have a lot of hormones that contribute to acne, what\u2019s up with that?<\/strong><!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph --><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\nIt\u2019s true. Male sex hormone are androgens and include testosterone which stimulates sebaceous (oil) glands that can trigger clogged pores and acne. Hormones also make the cells that line hair follicles more sticky, so pores become clogged more easily propelling your pimple potential! Real or imagined stress increases hormone production. So, take a few deep breaths, calm yourself and take the offensive against the acne army.<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\nSPOTLESS Regimen is specifically for the kind of acne that teens and young adults experience. Clusters of clogged pores and breakouts dominate the T-zone (including the forehead, nose and chin) because this is the oiliest environment This 2-step system eliminates acne, deep cleans pores and controls the appearance of oil and shine. The UNBLEMISH Regimen is formulated for adults who have drier and more sensitive skin with slower cell turnover. Your clogged pores may still be on your nose, but breakouts also happen lower on the face in the U-zone (lower cheeks and chin). If aging is also your concern, UNBLEMISH is designed to tackle signs of aging.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_about_shaving_and_ingrown_hairs_Is_there_something_Im_supposed_to_do_after_I_shave\"><\/span><strong>What about shaving, and ingrown hairs? Is there something I\u2019m supposed to do after I shave?<\/strong><!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph --><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\nMany men have a tough beard, meaning ingrown curly hairs coupled with easily irritated skin. Razor bumps! Here are some steps you can take to prevent that. Your skin will love you for this!<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\n1. Smooth the surface. Remove dead skin cells that send razors skipping and chipping in the skin leaving your neck stinging with razor burn. Gently massage <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/micro-dermabrasion-paste\/p\/ENPS125\">Micro-Dermabrasion Paste<\/a> in a circular motion on damp skin over the entire face to clear the runway for your razor for a smoother glide. This removes dead skin cells and helps curly hair to pop through the surface instead of growing inward.<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\n2. Soften the beard. Using Micro-Dermabrasion Paste helps swell and soften hairs for a cleaner easier cut. Make sure to shave with a sharp, single-blade razor in the same direction that the hair is growing.<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\n3. Calm the skin. After the shave, apply <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/soothe-sensitive-skin-treatment\/p\/SOTT050\">SOOTHE Sensitive Skin Treatment<\/a> to visibly reduce redness, dry flaky skin and keep skin smooth and ready for your next shave. Or try <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/active-hydration-serum\/p\/ENHEFG1\">Active Hydration Serum<\/a> to add extra hydration to skin.<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\n4. Protect. Always use a sunscreen and why not make it work harder for you? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/redefine-triple-defense-cream-broad-spectrum-spf-30\/p\/AATT030\">REDEFINE Triple Defense Treatment<\/a> in a 3-in-1 moisturizer, treatment and sunscreen that will also help minimize the appearance of lines. Or try <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/soothe-daily-mineral-sunscreen-spf-30\/p\/SOSS050\">SOOTHE Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30<\/a>, a lightweight formula that absorbs quickly and it calms, soothes and minimizes visible redness\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_men_use_face_masks_too\"><\/span><strong>Can men use face masks too?<\/strong><!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph --><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\nOf course! One of the best things a guy can do for a quick refresh before an important event, presentation or date is to use the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/shop\/redefine-rejuvenation-mask\/p\/AARMF50\">REDEFINE Rejuvenation Mask<\/a>.
