Skincare is for everyone – men included. Dryness, sensitivity, breakouts, and signs of ageing don’t discriminate by gender. Men’s skin has its own set of challenges — from the daily impact of shaving to the sweat and oil that come with an active lifestyle. It’s also thicker and produces more sebum than women’s skin, which means there’s a higher chance of congestion and comedones without proper care. A consistent skincare routine helps calm, hydrate and protect the skin, keeping it healthy, balanced, and resilient.
At dermaviduals, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. We prioritise skin health over trends, offering customised solutions tailored to your individual needs — and yes, that includes skincare for men.
Whether you’re new to skincare or just want to make sure you’re applying your products in the right order, these five steps will help you create a routine that works — from cleansing and sun protection to in-clinic treatments that elevate your results.
Step 1: Cleansing
Cleansing is always the first step in your skincare routine. It refreshes your skin each morning and removes SPF, sweat, and pollution at night. dermaviduals offer a range of cleansers designed to protect your skin’s natural barrier without stripping or irritating your skin.
Step 2: Treatment Tonics
Often overlooked, treatment tonics (or toners) play an essential role in your skincare routine — especially after cleansing. Lightweight and fast absorbing, these liquid solutions deliver a boost of hydration while supporting your skin’s natural pH and preparing it for the next step in your routine. They work synergistically with your cleanser to enhance skin comfort and barrier function.
Step 3: Serums
Serums are lightweight, concentrated actives designed to deliver targeted active ingredients deep into the skin. This step lets you customise your routine based on your specific skin concerns and your lifestyle. In clinic, your Corneotherapist may recommend serums containing liposomes or nanoparticles which are tiny delivery systems that enhance the absorption and effectiveness of these ingredients.
Step 4: Moisturisers
After applying your targeted serums, lock in hydration and protect your skin with a moisturiser. This nourishing step helps show down trans epidermal water loss (TEWL) the natural evaporation of moisture caused by pollution, air conditioning, and outdoor exposure. This supports your skin’s natural barrier, keeping it balanced, healthy, and resilient. For best results, apply your moisturiser morning and evening.
Step 5: Protect
No matter the weather, applying sun protection every morning is essential. For men, a lightweight, non-greasy SPF that feels invisible on the skin makes daily use easy and comfortable. dermaviduals Suncream SPF 15 delivers fast-absorbing UVA and UVB protection with a matte texture and reef-safe formula – ideal for everyday defense. For higher protection, SIMKA Invisible Facial Fluid SPF 50 delivers broad-spectrum protection with a barely-there feel, making daily application effortless.
Starting Simple with Essential Kits
Start simple with a dermaviduals Essentials Kit tailored to your skin type. Whether you need hydration for dry skin, oil control for oily skin, soothing care for sensitive skin, or targeted treatment for clearer skin, each kit includes essential products designed to address common concerns and support your skin’s natural barrier.
Professional Treatments to Complement your Home Care
While consistent home care forms the foundation of healthy skin, professional treatments can provide the extra support to optimise your results. dermaviduals Corneotherapists offer personalised consultations and bespoke facials to repair and strengthen your skin’s natural barrier.
