Skin Care for Men

Even before the term "metrosexual" became part of the pop culture vocabulary, men's skin care products were an essential part of the post-shaving ritual. However, many men are still hesitant to protect and treat their skin like women do for fear of ridicule.

In general, men have thicker skin than women, so they wrinkle later in life, but they are 15 percent more likely to have oily skin and generally have larger pores than women their age. So, although they wrinkle later, their skin accumulates dirt and oil for longer, and this can be just as problematic.
