In this era, men have more awareness and care about how important it is to take care of their skin. Even 2 of 10 customers of beauty clinics are men. They look for men’s skincare, so let’s talk about it.
People make some confusion between skincare and cosmetics that make men feel reluctant to use products that relate to beauty products such as skincare because beauty is only for women.
Even though both have beauty effects, but they aren’t similar.
- Skincare is more like a supplement to enhance skin health, while cosmetics are more like to cover up imperfections.
- When it comes to the benefits. Skincare has long-term benefits for skin appearance, on the other hand, cosmetics are temporary.
- Skincare mostly works under your skin to send beneficial ingredients to your skin’s cells, and cosmetics tend to cover your skin from imperfection.
Both have the same purpose of making a good-looking appearance yet in different ways and methods.
This time I am going to share essential men’s skincare products from Nu Skin. The products I choose is easy to use and light on the skin. But still can send the maximum level of beneficial ingredients into your skin.
PURE CLEANSING GEL
This one is a product to start your first skincare routine. Pure Cleansing Gel is a facial cleanser in gel form. This product is suitable for men who have oily or combination skin.

CLEAR ACTION DAY TREATMENT
After applying the face toner, for the day treatment, it’s highly recommended to use a day cream that contains SPF. But a cream with SPF would feel sticky on men’s faces. Not all men would be comfortable with that feeling. So I would recommend Clear Action Day Treatment.

Clear Action Day Treatment contains three key ingredients are Mandelic Acid, Salicylic Acid, and White Tea extract. Mandelic Acid can reduce skin changes due to acne in the past with delicate skin exfoliating process and help to minimize the potential of appearance the future acne. Salicylic Acid absorbs into skin pores to help to reduce severe acne. White tea extract acts as an antioxidant that can bring back the natural elasticity of the skin while enhancing skin resistance from aging due to adverse environmental impacts.
