Safety and Ethics Are Paramount
The top skincare products and cosmetics for men do not contain compounds which are potentially dangerous for the health. They are paraben free, SLS free and benzocaine free. You can expect them to bee colorant free as well. The ones for sensitive skin, in particular, do not contain fragrances and alcohol. This guarantees that they have anti-irritant properties. In general, all Halal cosmetics are free from alcohol.
The Halal, vegetarian and vegan skincare products are cruelty free. No innocent animals have been subjected to experiment during the design and manufacturing processes. Many vegan products, in particular, are PETA-approved. This is a guarantee of the lack of animal cruelty and also of the presence of botanical extracts only. You can expect all such products to be beeswax free. On the other hand, beeswax, honey and derivatives from animal by-products such as milk and eggs can be present in vegetarian cosmetics.
All You Need for Proper Skincare
What types of products do men need to take good care of their skin? An anti-inflammatory cleanser with natural antimicrobial properties is essential. It gently exfoliates the face without causing redness or discomfort. It should be used in the evening and possibly in the morning for keeping the skin free from excess oils and damaging environmental compounds.
What’s applied after the cleanser? If your answer is moisturizer, you’ve got it right. Its job is to hydrate the skin and protect it from the damaging effects of the environment such as those of UV light. Most moisturizers are packed with vitamins which nourish and revitalize the skin. Vitamin E provides reliable protection from free radicals while vitamin B and vitamin B5 help to keep it pump and youthful. Vitamin D stimulates natural skin cell repair and growth.
The ideal shaving products for men are also moisturizing and nourishing. They have anti-septic properties too. They are non-greasy too. In general, this applies to all skincare products for men, even those formulated for dry skin.
Should men use facial creams? These are products which are especially designed for men. They are antioxidant-rich to protect the skin cells from damage and to slow down the natural process of ageing. Another commonly found ingredient is Vitamin A. It helps for getting rid of dead skin cells and stimulates the natural production of new ones. Seaweed extract, on the other hand, has soothing and nourishing properties. Gamma alpha linoleic acid (GLA) and omega fatty acids relieve and prevent dryness and help to make the skin plump.
How about hair care products? Shampoos with DHT blockers are especially formulated to stimulate hair growth on the scalp and to prevent baldness. A good conditioner provides proper moisturizing.
