Nourish Magazine organised a progressive dinner for the downtown Tauranga area, and it was so much fun! Looking around it dawned on me how many men were there, and I wondered, were they there on their own initiative or were they brought along by their wives or partners?
Perhaps it’s the same for men’s skincare, would your husband or partner think to take good care of their skin beyond the odd slather of sunscreen and a bit of ointment slapped on their grazes? Younger men are more conscious of skincare, but a lot of the older generations have a ‘she’ll be right’ attitude and may need a bit of encouragement to care for themselves, don’t you think?
So, do the men in your life have a good skincare regime at all? As women we invest in taking care of ourselves and men shouldn’t be left out of this youthfulness equation. This advice is for them if you want to stick Nourish magazine under their noses to read on from here.
Now for the science bit for those who need convincing. The skin is the largest organ of the human body, so we need to take care of it. There are certain physiological differences between men and women where men tend to have oiler, thicker skin that ages differently due the male hormone testosterone. Mens’ skin has more active sebaceous (oil) glands, so it tends to be greasier overall. As a result, men are more prone to acne, especially in the early years. On average men’s skin is 20% thicker and (on a positive note) contains more collagen that creates a finer overall appearance. Lucky them, visible signs of aging appear a little later because collagen depletes with age.
Guys, if you haven’t had a skin health routine before now it’s easy, just keep it simple:
At Tranquillo we can help you evaluate and understand the type of skin type you have and recommend the corresponding products and treatments that will be perfect for your skin. You can even sneak in a quick massage while you are visiting to deal with those tight muscles and stiff shoulders, we won’t tell!
Although we’re focusing on men this month, this consultation and advice applies to everyone – keep the soap bars and shower gels away from your face. No size fits all so any cleansers in the shower or moisturisers in the vanity will not necessarily suit your type of skin. Be kind to yourself and your skin! Everyone feels better with a glowing face, even the most macho of men. Contact Tranquillo now for further details.
Recently I attended a fun filled evening, a progressive dinner that Nourish organised for the downtown area.
It dawned on me how many men were there, who brought them along and initiated their participation.
Is this the same with caring for yourselves, and do men have a good skincare regime?
As women we invest in taking care of ourselves and often the men don’t want to be left out of the equation of youthfulness, hence this is for you.
The skin is the largest organ of the human body, applying to both men and women so we need to take care of it. There are certain physiological differences, men tend to have oiler, thicker ski and ages differently due the male hormone Testosterone. Male skins have mor active sebaceous (oil) glands, so tend to be skinnier, Oiler, making it more prone to acne especially in the early years. On average men’s skin is 20% thicker and positive news contains more Collagen giving a finer appearance, hence visible signs of aging are a little later for males. Remembering collagen depletes with age.
Men, if you haven’t had a skin health routine keep it simple to begin with.
Cleanse morning and evening to remove the days residue of pollutants and dirt. This is not with a bar of soap and shower gels which can be quite damaging to the skin.
Moisturise morning and evening to keep the skin balanced for hydration helping the fine lines.
Sunscreen applying every morning, reapply if you are outdoors for long periods to help prevent further damage.
At tranquillo we can help you evaluate and understand which skin type you have to recommend the correct products and treatments that correspond.
This consultation and advice applies to everyone. No size fits all so be aware the cleanser in the shower or the moisturiser in the vanity will not necessarily suit you.

One size certainly doesn’t fit all when it comes to skincare routines that need to fit around…
