The social trend of men taking care of their skin and body at the cost of not appearing macho is on the increase and has spawned a whole new variety of cosmetic products for men. These products can now be found at all stores and websites and investing in them will help improve your cleansing regime. There is a difference of skin care methods between men and women, primarily because men have skin that is close to fifteen percent oilier than women, therefore you can use a soap free cleanser to cleanse your skin everyday. The cleanser will not irritate your skin and help clean it thoroughly. After using a soap free cleanser, follow it up with a toner that has no alcohol content. This helps rejuvenate the skin without upsetting its PH balance.
Since as a man your skin on the face is considerably rougher due to constant shaving, you will need to follow an exfoliation therapy each time after shaving. You can use products like exfoliating scrubs for this and for the rough skin on your knees and elbows you can use a sea sponge or a loofah. However do not use them on your face as it will cause minute tears in the skin on your face as it is comparatively softer and may cause uneven pigmentation( the formation of black spots) when exposed to daylight. Another good solution is to use a cleanser that contains lactic or glycolic acid as it helps improve the skin's feel and look.
