Is men's skin different?
Men's skin is up to 20 percent thicker than women's. That's only a few micrometers, but it makes a big difference: men's skin is more robust and less sensitive to touch, pain, or temperature changes. The underlying collagen fibers are more densely networked than in women, so wrinkles usually appear later. Men produce up to 3 milligrams of sebum per ten square centimeters of skin surface daily, while women produce only about 1.5. As a result, men's skin is generally more pored, and acne, pimples, and oily skin are more common and often more pronounced.
Does men's skin need special care?
Men have long been using cosmetic products regularly, because they too get tired and stressed, and this shows on their skin. Men's skin needs different care because it is structured differently and is also stressed by daily shaving. More and more men have sensitive skin. That's why it's important to use skincare products that are tailored to these skin needs.
Products are designed to banish fatigue and provide energy – with boosters or moisture turbos. For men, tolerability, fragrance, and effectiveness are key factors in their purchasing decision. The products should be uncomplicated yet highly effective. The goal is to look fresh and well-groomed without spending hours in the bathroom.
