Male Grooming Products Our FTF Team (And The Men In Their Lives) Love
This month has been all about skincare for men, andĀ in celebrationĀ that weāve been busting myths on why a male skincare routine is essential for keeping your complexion soothed, nurtured and protected, sharing some of our favourite products for an effective skincare routine in the process.
With discussions flying around the office, we thought, what better way to round up our male-dedicated month than by asking the boys in the Face The Future team, and the boys in our lives, what they think the best skin care for men is, and weāve loved hearing their responses. From sunscreens to shampoos and everything in between, theyāre huge fans of male skincare, and love nothing more than taking time for themselves, investing in a moment of self-care and wellness to boost their mood, complexion, hair, and beards!
Letās Hear It For The Boys!
Markās Trusty Beard Balm
āMy fave product at the minute is the Murdock London Beard Balm, Iāve used many different beard products over the years but this is one of the best by far. It holds my beard in place well without feeling oily, waxy, or sticky. It also smells great and is a pretty reasonable price as it lasts a long time.ā
Jack Loves A Coconutty Shampoo
āI really like using the Paul Mithcell Original Shampoo One, it lathers up well and cleans my hair nicely with minimal effort, and is gentle on the scalp too, though it really needs to be paired with the conditioner for best results! Itās a great general-use shampoo for day-to-day, its main advantage being its really nice coconut scent, which is why Iād recommend it over other shampoos.ā
Tobyās Guilty Pleasure
āI like to use a nice beard oil sometimes, and on recommendation from some of the guys on the team, now use the Murdock London Beard Oil. It works wonders, smells so nice and tames and softens my beard!
My secret guilty pleasure is a face mask in the evening while watching a film. and my go-to is always the BEAUTYPRO HYALURONIC ACID Hydrating Sheet Mask! It works in just 15 minutes, and my skin always feels amazing afterwards, calm, really moisturised, and refreshed. I love that the packaging is fully biodegradable too, thatās a great touch from BEUATYPRO."
Samās Sunscreen Go-To
āIāve been using the Sun Bum Original SPF30 Lotion, I really love the holiday smell, how well it rubs in, and how it keeps my skin safe, soft, and fresh."
Jerome's Morning Essentials
āI always start my day with the Q+A Salicylic Acid Body Wash, full of natural ingredients, it gently cleans and exfoliates, leaving my skin feeling fresh and smelling great. The watermelon and agave fragrance is great for waking me up first thing!
I also love the Paul Mitchell Clarifying Shampoo Three, itās a great replacement for head and shoulders and leaves my hair feeling enriched and clear."
Daveās Year-Round SPF
"Iāve used the Heliocare 360 Gel Oil-Free SPF50 after being recommended it by our very own Mark for my holiday to Spain last year. This is now my go-to SPF which I use when I am not on holiday, too. Most sunscreens I have used have been a nightmare to apply and are usually too runny but this one has a great texture, and applies easily without stickiness to keep my skin safe.ā
Owenās Holy Grail
āI love the Teoxane (Teosyal) RHA Serum. The potent formula boosts cell renewal and leaves my skin looking plumped and radiant. A holy grail!ā
MatthewāsĀ Skin Clearing Cleanser
āI love Environ Focus Care Clarity+ Botanical Infused Sebu-Wash Gel Cleanser. Itās perfect for keeping breakouts at bay, stripping away excess oil, while not being too drying. Itās ideal for my oily skin, leaving it fresh, clean, and balanced.ā
Leeās Fave Foot Care
āThe Eucerin Urea Foot Foam is my go-to favourite product at the moment. I have been using it daily and in a short space of time it has hydrated the skin on my feet, Ā leaving them soft and smooth, perfect for when Iām wearing sandals.ā
Benās Double-Shampoo Routine
"Iāve been using the Coco & Eve Super Hydration Duo Kit recently and will likely repurchase it! It smells great and my hair genuinely feels clean, so much so that Iāve even started doing a double shampoo which I never used to incorporate, but feel like itās actually made a difference.
I also use the Medik8 Crystal Retinal (Iām on level 10) because it has a great dosage of retinol, the cream smells amazing, and my skin feels softer with an overall better texture after using this.ā
