A CARE ROUTINE FOR YOU MEN!
This time, honor to the men! At Mlle Agathe, we also believe that egalitarianism goes through cosmetics. Finally a routine for our male partners. Are you following us into the bathroom?
Cosmetics for men, a crazy idea?
According to the consulting agency Nelly Rodi, the men's cosmetics sector would represent today 38.5 billion euros, and should reach 50 billion in 2026, with a growth of 10% each year. Cosmetics for men: it's not a fantasy!
If they are, supposedly, less straddling their skin than women, men suffer more or less the same repercussions from their environment or their way of life. Lack of sleep, unbalanced diet, stress, tobacco, repeated shaving, so many factors that also affect their epidermal balance.
Today, it is not uncommon for a man's toiletry kit to consist of a day cream, a scrub, a cleansing treatment and even a serum: gender equality women even in the bathroom!
And these days, men are taking care of themselves and making it known, as evidenced by the emergence of men's cosmetic bloggers. In fact, the French Male recently sang the praises of our anti-aging serum if you're tempted to read.
Understanding men's skin!
So, how would men be less diligent in the bathroom? No way. It is true that the nature of their skin is completely different from that of women. Who's responsible for all this? Hormones of course! Unlike women, men produce testosterone. This hormone makes their skin tougher and thicker than their fairer sex. In fact, the hydrolipidic film is less sensitive to external attacks and the signs of aging also appear later.
While this may seem like an advantage, it is also a disadvantage. Indeed, this thicker skin also tends to make their skin oilier. An excess of sebum that inevitably leads to clogged pores, skin imperfections and a lack of water! Men are therefore condemned to navigate between highlighting of the skin, dehydration and irritation due to shaving fire which damages the epidermis and abuses the hydrolipidic film.
HOW TO PREVENT IT?
Cleaning
As with women, at night, men's skin also secretes sebum. To start the day off right, head to the sink. In the morning and in the evening, washing is an essential gesture to cleanse the skin and thus eliminate traces of pollution such as impurities. What could be better than organic soap with sweet almond oil?
A big jet of cold water, to pass the bar of soap on the face and you already feel fresher!
Find the balance
The skin of the man is taken in vice. On the one hand, from the middle of the day, the so-called median area of the face shows shine. On the other hand, freshly shaved cheeks can be tight. His skin therefore oscillates between irritation and sebum zone. The solution could again be in the scrub. Once exfoliated, the pores are unclogged and less able to secrete sebum. On the shaving side, the scrub will make the skin more supple and more receptive to the passage of the blades.
Hydration solution!
Beard of two, three days or shaved clean? What team are you from? In any case, shaving is an aggressive gesture for the skin and can have irritating consequences. How to cure it ?
Hydration, of course! Two doors open to you. Either Miss Agathe's aloe vera gel in case of irritation, especially in the case of aftershave, this plant will allow you to reduce your burns and irritations. Either the very simple, but just as effective, day cream from Mlle Agathe. Composed of 60% snail slime, aloe vera and golden algae, our cream will soothe your skin and protect it against daily aggressions.
Delay the onset of wrinkles
So then men would not be concerned about aging? Another myth busted. If they produce more collagen, they are also hit hard by wrinkles. With the anti-aging serum another good reason to de-stress! Suitable for both men and women, made up of 93% snail slime extract, it reduces wrinkles and fine lines, while stimulating cell regeneration.
You see finally we are not so different!
