Why and How Should Men Exfoliate

By Joqtan Anicama

Exfoliation. Err... what are we talking about here? It's not the regular thing for guys to start talking about exfoliating their faces during the football game commercial. But that doesn't mean it's not important. What other better place to learn about male exfoliation then the Internet!

First off, let's make it clear what exfoliation actually means. Exfoliating is basically the act of removing dead skin from your face and therefore letting you show off your healthy facial skin below. Capiche? Now to the next step, why should guys exfoliate?

Why should men exfoliate?

Men would actually benefit more from exfoliating than women! This is because it is already a known fact that men have thicker skin than women. So exfoliation helps men reveal softer and even toned skin. Remember exfoliation wipes off all the dead skin on your face. Plus, if it's that good for our faces it can do the same for our body. There are great exfoliation body soaps as well.

How Should Men Exfoliate?

Well first you need a product. If you’re comfortable with shopping at your local stores, check around and you can find tons of men's skin care products. Some great exfoliation products for men are Nivea for Men Energizing Face Scrub, King of Shaves and Neutrogena Men Daily Face Scrub just to name a few.

But, if you feel kind of awkward looking at skin care product in public, like myself, don't have time to shop, or have sensitive skin than online shopping is for you. Try menskincaretips.com. Under their "Exfoliating Facial Scrubs" section they carry a wide variety on men's skin care products. Some of my favorites The Art of Shaving Facial Scrub for Sensitive Skin, Jack Black Face Buff (I use this one) and Sharps Barber and Shop Daily Prep Foaming Scrub.

After choosing your scrub, it's easy cruisin' from here. Using an exfoliator is easy. Wet your face, rub in the exfoliator in circular motions all over your face, rinse and dry. Was that to hard?

When Should Men Exfoliate?
Always before shaving, unless the directions specify to use it after shaving. And of course you should exfoliate daily.

So now you know why and how men should exfoliate and the benefits you will get from exfoliating daily. Healthier looking skin and overall a better appearance, because your face is what everyone sees first!
