Why is it that we presume spa and beauty treatments are just a womans thing?
The male grooming market has grown incredibly over the past few years with more and more men taking time to treat and look after themselves and why shouldn’t you?!
One of the main treatments we see men booking in for is a facial and it is just as important for you men to look after your skin as it is for us women. In fact, men need facials more than women due to coarser skin, larger pores and an increased chance of sun damage (because lets face it, how many of you honestly wear your sun protection?!)
There are a number of reasons why you should look after your skin with a regular professional facial treatment…
1. Shaving
Skin damage from your shaving routine cannot be fixed with just soap and water!
Wether you shave daily, weekly or monthly all of this accumulates to skin irritation due to the continuous dragging of your razor. Having a facial will deep clean and soothe any irritated skin, and with a combination of exfoliation, masks and mouisturisers you will leave with smoother & softer skin giving you better and more comfortable results when shaving.
2. Men produce more oil
Due to the levels of testosterone, a mans skin produces more natural oils.
When the skin is not cleaned correctly oils clog up the pores and can cause blackheads or breakouts. Most professional facial treatments include extractions of any blackheads to clear the skin without causing any damage.
This does not mean all men have oily skin types/conditions. Our therapists can assess your skin type and condition to ensure we use the correct and most effective products through out your facial. All of which can then be purchased to use at home!
3. Worried about ageing skin?
This is the best reason to have a regular professional facial and receive full skin care advice.
Simply applying mouisturiser am & pm every day can improve your skin and having a regular facial treatment can aid the ageing process.
