Male Grooming Is Really Booming!
February 6th, 2015
If you’re under the age of 55 then you’ll be familiar with the term “metrosexual” and will be used to starting the day with a bit of moisturiser, post-shave balm or even a bit of hair removal and eyebrow plucking. But this wasn’t always the case. It’s only in the last 10 years that sales of products for men have took off.
The male UK skincare market is worth an estimated £600m and thanks to TV shows such as The only Way Is Essex and Embarrassing Bodies more and more men are happy to be plucked, injected and groomed than ever before.
So where do you begin if you want to start fighting the signs of ageing and getting groomed? Here are some products which aren’t too fancy or complicated and will suit the man who wants a great overall anti-ageing regime with as little fuss as possible.
Exuviance Multi-Protective Day Fluid SPF 15
Men love this straight-forward, no-nonsense lotion because it performs all the basic tasks in one cream. This light daily anti-ageing fluid is formulated to hydrate and retexture skin, helping to visibly reduce fine lines and wrinkles, while revealing brighter, younger-looking skin. Ingredients have been scientifically proven to work and so results will be more effective than a cheaper high street brand.
