Cosmetics for men after 30. Features and rules of care

What are the characteristics of men's skin?

There is an opinion that men's cosmetics began to be produced as a result of the machinations of marketers and cosmetic companies trying to lure the strong half of the world's population into their networks.
We categorically disagree with this and insist: every person has the right to take care of themselves and their skin, regardless of gender. She's fatter. This means that you are prone to greasy shine, enlarged pores in the T-zone and the appearance of blackheads. Details here.

It is denser, and this is good, since dense skin resists negative factors better than thin skin. However, she is not so susceptible to care. This is why men's products usually have a light gel-like or watery texture.

It is more sensitive in certain areas. This is to blame for daily shaving, which, even with perfect sliding of the blade, causes microtrauma to the skin. Hence - irritation, redness, burning and rashes.

Characteristic symptoms

Peeling on a man's face can have isolated symptoms, which are accompanied by dry skin and tightness. Sometimes this problem is associated with the appearance of small blisters and pustules, blisters, papules and subcutaneous spots. At the same time, skin scales have different shades:

• white-gray;
• matte;
• translucent.

Sometimes the area of ​​peeling takes on an unusual color:

• silver;
• red-pink;
• purple-bluish.

Everything depends on the nature of these formations and on the state of the epidermis at their base. Stagnation causes inflammation and thickening of the dermis, which has a direct impact on the shade of pathological inflammation. There are cases when flaky pigment has a clearly defined contour against the background of surrounding healthy skin.

Peeling can also be diffuse. Typically, this problem is associated with hypovitaminosis, care errors, and congenital failure of keratinization and regeneration.

Facial skin care after 30 years - secrets and recommendations

We tell you details about the rules that will help you take care of yourself.

Hydration and nutrition

At this age, it is very necessary to saturate the dermis with valuable substances - vitamins, extracts, peptides. For this purpose, products with a high concentration of healing components are suitable. Deep hydration - moisture loss becomes a more noticeable problem with age. Therefore, it is worth acquiring cosmetics that intensively saturate with water and retain moisture. This prevents the formation of wrinkles.

Cleansing and toning

A wide range of products for washing is presented: foam, mousse, gel, milk. The drier the skin, the more delicate the consistency. There is less sebum, but you still need to cleanse twice a day. Tonic is needed to enhance the effect of a cream or emulsion. Hydrosol or special products will do.

Skin of the eyelids

This area is especially vulnerable to time, since there are almost no sebaceous glands. What makes the situation worse is that the eyes are involved in all emotions. Therefore, be sure to use a special cream.

Neck care

This should become your ritual. You can also use regular cream for this area. But it is advisable to avoid acids, since the skin here is thinner and more sensitive. This is one of the most important stages of facial care after 30.

Day and night creams

It is recommended to select formulations that contain many anti-aging antioxidants. Peptides, collagen and phytoestrogens are also very useful. Such cosmetics are unlikely to be cheap, but you will look great.

Folk remedies

In addition to industrial products, you can also use homemade masks. Fruits, vegetables, honey, herbs, dairy products - all this can be tasty and beneficial for your dermis. But if everything is simple with labeled tubes (the label contains all the information about who it is intended for and what problems it solves), then here the responsibility for selecting the product falls entirely on you.

Care depending on skin type

Before you begin the procedures, you should understand what proper facial skin care after 30 consists of. There are many subtleties and nuances here, because each skin is individual and requires special treatment.

The first stage in carrying out home treatments is to find out what type of skin to choose products for:

Normal. Without any special defects - spider veins, stains, greasy shine. Caring for it will not be difficult, but if you neglect it, the sebaceous glands will instantly react and begin to produce fat much more intensely.

Combined. The T-zone is usually oilier than other areas and also ages much faster.

It is these places that the greatest attention should be paid during procedures.

Dry. Characterized by increased dryness and blood vessels visible through a thin layer of skin

Without proper care, it quickly becomes covered with wrinkles.

Fat. The active work of the sebaceous glands is noticeable at first glance - a fatty layer is constantly visible on the face. There is no need to worry too much about this after the age of 30 - usually it becomes combined and requires normal care.

Each home cosmetology recipe is recommended for a particular skin type, so you definitely need to pay attention to these details

Care for normal skin type

The procedure for caring for healthy facial skin at 30 should begin with washing with cool water and a light massage (acupressure or simple patting). This will increase blood circulation, improve tone, and allow nutrients to penetrate the layers of the epidermis.

Be sure to use moisturizers (masks, creams). It is better not to use nutritional preparations - they stimulate the appearance of wrinkles. In the evening, cleanse the skin with a special milk, gel or mask.

Dry skin care

What is the care for dry skin after 30 and how to prolong youth? In the morning, be sure to wipe your face with a cleansing tonic, massage, and apply any high-fat product (kefir, yogurt, sour cream). You can make your own homemade mask. Be sure to apply moisturizer every day.

In the evening, repeat the manipulations with the cleansing tonic. Be sure to apply a moisturizer (you can alternate it with a nourishing cream).

4 fatal mistakes in caring for oily skin – how to really take care of it

Unhappy owners of oily skin often make mistakes that are immediately reflected on the face in the form of wrinkles, a scattering of pimples and blackheads. What are their mistakes and how to take care of oily skin after 30 years without mistakes?

Main errors and their corrections:

1. Using hot water for washing. This stimulates the sebaceous glands and causes oily shine. The liquid should be cool or lukewarm.
2. Using oily cosmetics (store-bought or homemade). Thanks to this, pimples appear that do not decorate the face at all. The composition should be low-fat, plant-based.
3. Washing with hard water. The results of the procedure are the appearance of irritation. It is better to use decoctions of sage or mint for washing - this will not only have a beneficial effect on the condition of the skin, but will also give an even, healthy shade.
4. Applying fatty face powder. The effect after the procedure is amazing - the skin looks like a mask with layers of cosmetic product. It's easy to correct the mistake - use loose powder, it will draw out sebum.

To correct the situation, it is recommended to constantly use drying masks; the only requirement is that they should not contain alcohol, which stimulates the secretion of fat.

Care for combination skin types

Caring for combination skin after 30 is not difficult, the main thing is to strictly adhere to the recommendations of specialists:

• select cosmetic preparations intended only for this type;
• if homemade formulations are used, preference should be given to products for oily and dry types, applying them to the corresponding areas of the face;
• Be sure to do deep cleaning weekly;
• make masks based on plant materials (St. John's wort, birch, yarrow, cucumbers, citrus fruits).

In the evening, apply cream for combination skin or make a special mask.

What do we end up with?

They greet you by their clothes. Despite all the intolerance of Russian men towards self-care, this saying does not lose its relevance. A presentable appearance for a man is a ticket to the world of high positions and good earnings, so skin care in the summer is in no way a sign of weakness, but simple adequacy and practicality.

No matter what anyone says, absolutely everyone wants to look young and fresh even in old age. This is a simple and natural desire, so you shouldn’t be a conservative and a snob - in 30 years this will definitely not decorate you.

Facial skin care for men and its features

It is important to understand that facial skin care for men differs primarily in its approach. Representatives of the stronger sex prefer to choose methods of care that will take the least time, but at the same time give the greatest effect.

Also added to the care features is shaving, the quality of which will have a significant impact.

In caring for a man’s face, a complex effect will be most effective. It fits perfectly with the minimalist approach that most men prefer. One of the main types of care is peeling, which is complemented by regular toning and cleansing. After 30 years, a daily face and eye cream is added to the list. Usually this is enough to get an impressive result.

We advise you to watch a video by a cosmetologist about the rules of caring for men’s skin:

Are men's skin types as different as women's?

Before starting facial care, men need to determine their skin type. Usually the following types are distinguished:

• Oily – characterized by increased fat content and shine. When palpated, an oily mark may be felt on the fingers. Pimples or blackheads often appear;
• Dry is the most sensitive type. Reacts quickly to frost; after washing, the skin may become tight;
• Combined - combines the properties of previous types. For example, the cheeks are sensitive and often dry out, and the T-zone is highly oily;
• Normal is the rarest type, the skin is healthy and has a matte structure. The number of pimples and comedones is minimal.

Soap alone is not enough for a man’s skin care!

Very often, men's facial care is limited to just regular washing with soap, although in most cases this will not be enough. The skin is constantly exposed to the external environment, so you need to pay enough attention to cleanse it

It is important not only to cleanse the pores and remove the dead layer of epidermis in a timely manner, but also to choose the right products

It is also necessary to remember that when using creams or other care products, including micellar water, at the end of the day the skin must be cleansed of their traces.

Scrub and peel as rough as possible?

To make your skin smooth and firm, exfoliation is your best choice. Men's facial skin care products can be chosen as strictly as possible without fear of injury or mechanical damage. The exception is people with dry and sensitive skin, for whom moderate scrubs are better suited.

It is important to carry out the procedure regularly to cleanse the pores of dead particles of the epidermis, dirt and dust that the skin comes into contact with daily, as well as other microparticles. Peeling will not only make the skin healthier and more vibrant, but will also significantly simplify the shaving procedure and also prevent ingrown hairs

It is recommended to carry out the procedure no more than once a week.

Men's skin care cream - what is it?

The right cream is not only facial care for men, but also its protection. It is not worth using it on an ongoing basis at a young age; it becomes necessary only after 40 years, but in some cases you cannot do without a cream or gel. The most common type of creams are moisturizers. They are recommended to be applied to the skin of the face and neck every time after shaving or thoroughly washing with detergents. You should not overdo it with cream, as this can lead to clogging of pores and create an unpleasant oily sheen.

10-15 minutes after applying the cream, you need to check how much it has been absorbed, and if necessary, remove all remaining product using a cotton pad.

Smooth, injury-free shave

It is important to pay attention to quality shaving, which will determine the condition of the skin. Often men's facial care products come in the form of universal creams or gels that can be used for both shaving and moisturizing. It is not only convenient, but also effective

It is also worth taking care of a high-quality razor; it is better to avoid disposable razors, as they severely injure the skin and cause irritation.

It is not only convenient, but also effective. It is also worth taking care of a high-quality razor; it is better to avoid disposable razors, as they severely injure the skin and cause irritation.

Etiology of the phenomenon

The skin on the face of men peels due to the influence of some internal or external irritant.

The first group includes the following factors:

• lack of vitamins, in particular vitamin B, micro- and macroelements in the body;
• eating disorder;
• malfunctions in the gastrointestinal tract, nervous and endocrine systems;
• the presence of atherosclerosis in blood vessels;
• hereditary predisposition (ichthyosis disease).

Infections can also cause this problem:

• fungal;
• viral;
• bacterial.

Fungal infections include mycosis and lichen, which provoke severe skin irritation:

• peeling;
• itching;
• pigmentation;
• inflammation;
• rash on the head and neck.

Viral and bacterial infections include seborrhea, psoriasis and eczema. For the first disease, the following symptoms are considered characteristic:

• the appearance of red pigments on a man’s cheeks;
• seals;
• change in complexion (sallow tone).

Skin care rules for men

Seven main stages of proper facial care in order to keep your skin young and healthy for as long as possible. The most important tips for men:

Daily cleansing

Taking care of your face to keep your skin looking young and healthy starts with choosing the right cleanser for your daily use. The best choice for combination or oily skin would be a product based on natural oils. If your skin is classified as problematic and you struggle with acne, you need products with antibacterial components.

Washing

You should wash your face with skin cleansing products no more than once a day - preferably in the evening. More frequent washing tends to both remove the natural protective layer and dry out the face, which will gradually lead to an increase in the number of wrinkles.

The water for washing should be cool enough - hot water stimulates the skin glands and after a few minutes an oily sheen will appear on the skin. A towel for drying is not recommended - pat your face with your fingertips and wait for the water to dry.

Use the scrub twice a week

Periodic use of an exfoliant (scrub) helps remove the very top layer of the epidermis, which contains various impurities, toxins and dead scales. This helps both more effective skin renewal care and improved skin respiration processes.

It is important to remember that excessive mechanical impact can damage the skin of the face - the scrub must be applied slowly and carefully, rubbing it with rotational movements without excessive pressure. Wait a minute or two, then rinse off with cool water.

Moisturizer

One of the main stages of maintaining a man's skin in a young state is the use of moisturizing creams. For dry skin, oil-based products (argan oil, shea butter, lanolin, olive oil) are suitable; for oily skin - light glycerin-based products.

If you are in the sun for even a few hours a day, it is best to use special face creams with light sun protection - SPF15 or stronger SPF30. Remember that direct sunlight accelerates the aging process of the skin.

Take care of the skin around your eyes

The skin around the eyes is the thinnest, making it prone to wrinkles. Using even a regular moisturizer in this area significantly stops aging and improves the overall appearance of the face, making it healthier.

Special products intended for use in the area around the eyes contain components to get rid of dark circles and bags under the eyes. Their use is recommended for men over 30 years of age.

Shave correctly

If you shave with a razor rather than an electric razor, always use shaving cream. It is recommended to apply it to pre-moistened skin, wait one or two minutes and only then start shaving. When finished, wash with cold water.

Take care of your facial hair

A mustache or beard also requires special care. They need to be washed either with regular shampoo or with milder products made specifically for facial hair. Dry your beard with a towel.

Recommended Diet

Diet plays a big role in solving this problem. To avoid skin peeling, a man must adhere to a special diet. The menu should include foods that are rich in vitamins and beneficial elements. The following will help compensate for the deficiency of these substances:

• fish;
• rice;
• dairy products;
• nuts;
• eggs;
• chicken;
• liver;
• fruits and vegetables.

It is especially important to pay attention to the drinking regime. A man should drink up to 2 liters per day. liquid, this will help improve metabolism, and therefore relieve signs of peeling.

The diet should also include olive or flaxseed oil. It is recommended to consume 1 tbsp 30 minutes before breakfast. l. unrefined oil. You cannot drink the medicine. The oil will help nourish the cells from the inside and prevent such phenomena on the skin. In addition, the oil can be used as a face mask. Using this product helps remove dead skin layers and cleanse pores. The face becomes velvety because olive oil contains vitamins A and E.

Facial skin care after 30 years - secrets and recommendations

There are many tricks that turn facial care at 30 at home into pleasure. You don’t need to go to a salon for this, you can do everything yourself and look well-groomed and always young.

Step-by-step care:

1. start the day with proper washing, using tonic or milk, but in no case soap;
2. have breakfast only with healthy dishes, include fruits, herbs, vegetables in your diet, give up sweets;
3. drink plenty of fluids – green tea, plain water, vitamin fruit drinks and juices;
4. use special anti-aging products (cream, mask, tonic, lotion);
5. regularly cleanse and nourish the skin with masks;
6. Be sure to remove any remaining makeup before going to bed.

Alcohol and cigarettes also leave their mark on the face, so it is better to sacrifice a few minutes of pleasure and get glowing youthful skin in return.

We advise you to listen to the advice of a cosmetologist on skin care after 30 years:

Hydration and nutrition

You can combine two skin care processes at home. The easiest option for hydration and nutrition is to purchase special products labeled “after 30.” You can use them at 32 or 45 - the effect will not change.

The creams should contain the following ingredients:

• any essential oil;
• nutrients;
• vitamins;
• moisturizing components;
• UV filters.

A little trick - in summer it is better to give preference to light formulations, but in winter choose richer products that will protect the skin from the harmful effects of frosty air.

Cleansing and toning

The necessary steps in skin care should be toning and cleansing, which will get rid of excess fat. Tips from a cosmetologist for facial care:

• use special products (milk, gel for washing);
• regularly remove dust and dirt using scrubs;
• The entire face should be cleaned;
• Be sure to use homemade or store-bought masks.

The skin must constantly breathe, so it is better not to overuse cosmetics.

Proper makeup removal

Grooming rules include removing makeup, which is where women make fatal mistakes. Few requirements:

• do not leave makeup on overnight;
• remove decorative cosmetics with special compounds;
• Do not use force or vigorously rub your eyes or skin;
• do “fasting” days, allowing your face to rest.

If you feel a little discomfort on your face after removing makeup, it is better to experiment with another milk or foam - there is a possibility that the product was chosen incorrectly.

Folk remedies

Regardless of when ladies over 30 undergo facial care, in the fall, spring, or winter, this must be done regularly and carefully. Folk remedies that are as effective as expensive drugs will come to the rescue here.

The most commonly used plant materials here are leaves, roots, inflorescences. You can add products from the refrigerator - cottage cheese, sour cream and honey have no less effective effects and perfectly nourish the epidermal cells.

An open mind about skin care around the eyes from age 30

We should not forget that daily facial care should also include procedures in the areas around the eyes. There are no special requirements here, but masks against crow’s feet should become a necessary habit after 30.

You can use purchased drugs or homemade formulations for the procedures - there is no significant difference between them. The only requirement is to carry them out constantly; it is much easier to prevent wrinkles than to deal with them later.

Neck care

Body care is not only a procedure for the face, the neck also needs to be given due attention. There is no need to experiment or invent special formulations - the skin of the face and neck is practically the same, so you can use the same products

The use of nourishing and moisturizing compositions on the neck is simply necessary, because it also quickly becomes flabby and loses its elasticity.

Day and night facial care after 30 years

Regular skin care includes not only daytime, but also evening treatments:

1. washing;
2. toning;
3. applying a cream intended for ladies over 30 years old;
4. deep cleansing;
5. makeup removal;
6. applying a night product (cream for 30 years).

Each of these points must be followed strictly - only this guarantees a successful result.

Here's what a cosmetologist thinks about men's grooming

5th category cosmetic specialist

– What are the characteristics of men’s skin? Is it different from women's?

– Human skin consists of three main layers: epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous fat. The epidermis and dermis of men's skin are thicker than women's. The dermis of men's skin contains more collagen fibers. This allows men's skin to age later and gradually.

However, due to constant shaving and lack of systematic proper care, men's skin becomes more sensitive with age, prone to irritation, peeling, and tightness.

– What are the differences in caring for men’s and women’s skin?

– Men's skin is oilier. Inflammations and pimples appear more often on it; it is mainly of the combined or oily type. Therefore, it is better to choose cleansers in the form of gels or foams.

It’s good if the composition contains acids (AHA, salicylic), which help exfoliate the upper stratum corneum of the skin and prevent the occurrence of comedones (one of the manifestations of acne. - Ed.), reduce oily skin. But for sensitive skin, it is better to choose the mildest products without acids or alcohol.

If the skin is sensitive, suffers from shaving and external factors, you should choose skincare products containing panthenol, aloe juice, green tea extracts, plantain, azulene, hyaluronic acid, which will have a calming and restorative effect.

– What cosmetic products are good for men?

– Usually men don’t like complex skin care. They prefer that one product solves all problems, preferably after the first use. But this is unrealistic.

Therefore, in your arsenal you need to have at least a cleanser, shaving product, and aftershave.

If self-care gives a man pleasure or he just wants to look good, you can also add face cream (after 40–45 years - with anti-aging ingredients) and cream for the skin around the eyes.

Once or twice a week you can use cleansing and moisturizing masks, scrubs and peels. It is quite convenient, for example, to buy disposable masks on a non-woven basis.

If we talk about winter care, the skin of men’s hands and lips also needs special care. Therefore, it is worth buying hand cream and lip balm. If you don’t like fatty products, then thermal water will do. It moisturizes and relieves irritation. But it is worth remembering that thermal water must be applied in advance before going outside, do not pour it under the sun’s rays, and be sure to pat your skin dry with a napkin a couple of seconds after application. Otherwise, instead of moisturizing, you will get the opposite effect.

– Which women’s products are also suitable for men? When should men look for something special in composition?

– Care products should be light, not leaving a greasy film after application (gels, emulsions, fluids), with a mattifying effect. If your wife (friend) has skin type similar to yours, in theory, you can try her skincare products.

Anti-aging products for women are 90% likely not suitable for men: they will be too rich and dense for men's skin. Therefore, it is better to choose products from men's lines of famous brands or professional cosmetics.

Self-facial rejuvenation

There is an important set of measures that will help a man maintain skin tone and health at home:

1. Water balance. Lack of fluid can negatively affect the body. You need to drink two liters of clean still water daily. Lemon juice, mint, and apple are added to it. Such drinks remove toxins and saturate the body with vitamins.
2. You need to accustom yourself to washing your face with cleansers every day, using moisturizing creams, making masks twice a week, and sometimes using scrubs. Proper care will help rejuvenate your face, eliminate redness and rashes.
3. Correction of regime and diet. It is necessary to give up smoking, alcohol, and reduce coffee consumption, otherwise the process of withering will be much faster. You need to establish a clear daily routine, spend more time outdoors, and try to get enough sleep. You should eat small portions 4-5 times a day. The diet includes more cereals, greens, and lean meat.
4. In the morning and evening during hygiene procedures, you need to perform several exercises: stretch your lips strongly, frown your forehead, raise and lower your eyebrows. With the help of such facial training, fine wrinkles will be smoothed out and muscle tone will be maintained.
5. You can make skincare masks. White clay can tighten the oval of the face and cleanse the epidermis. Mix white clay, a teaspoon of honey and milk so that you end up with a thick paste. It is applied to the face and washed off after 20 minutes. Other recipes can be used. Masks help cleanse the epidermis, moisturize it, tighten it, and prevent inflammation and peeling.
