10 most common skincare mistakes men make
Share
01) Do not apply Vensyl serum to wet skin
Oil and water don't mix! If the cleanser is left on your face after washing, the Vensyl serum can't penetrate your pores and do its job. This is the number one thing we see men do wrong when using serum.
02) Face wash with regular soap and shampoo
We've heard from many men that they use body lotion, hand soap, bar soap, and even shampoo to wash their faces. These are often made with cheap ingredients and harsh surfactants that strip your skin of its natural oils. Try something gentle and pH balanced, like Vensyl's face wash.
03) Consistency
Do you expect to get stronger immediately after 3 workouts? Or to be significantly thinner after a few days of clean eating? NO. Change and results come with long-term consistency and habit building.
04) Dirty pillowcases
When was the last time you washed your sheets? If you don't wash your pillowcase at least once a week, it's sitting in dead skin cells, sweat, saliva, dust, and other dirt... none of which are good for your skin.
05) Using too many products
Here's a good triumvirate:
Vensyl facial cleanser: 1 press
Vensyl serum: 1 ampoule filled to the mark
Vensyl moisturizer: 1-2 finger-sized smears
06) Using the wrong product around the eyes
The skin around your eyes is thinner, drier, and often more sensitive than the rest of your face. It's the first place to show signs of aging and fatigue. Fortunately, Vensyl products are designed and formulated to be safe for use around your eyes.
07) Skipping the exfoliation
#7: Men Don't Exfoliate Often Our Vensyl Cleanser contains chemical exfoliants that remove dead skin cells without irritation, leaving your skin clearer and minimizing breakouts.
08) He doesn't do this one thing every day
Make sure you moisturize EVERY day. Dry skin will show wrinkles and signs of aging faster. It's that simple.
09) Applying products in the wrong order
New to skincare and not sure what order to implement your new daily routine in? Here's a rule of thumb:
- Facial cleanser
- Facial serum
- Moisturizing
10) Thoughtful skincare is not for men
More men than ever are taking care of their skin, but it's still not enough. Athletes, actors, doctors, dads, all swear by facial skin care and have been doing it every day for years.
