Yes Guys, You Deserve Pampering Too!

We all enjoy summer, but the constant sun and heat can be aggravating when you have oily skin, acne, tangled hair, sweat, and the like. In the summer, your skin is the first thing people notice about you. Some men understand the significance of good skin pampering, but others do not and require a friendly reminder. If you’re concerned about dealing with the heat this summer, don’t worry because help is on the way. This year is set to be a watershed moment for modern men’s grooming. What worked for your father, grandfather, or friend may not work for you. New products are constantly being developed and released, and it is essential to find a skincare regimen that matches your skin type and concerns. Hold and use the products you discover after you’ve found them.

Summer grooming tips from ODD to make you look better:

• Cleanse Twice a Day (AM & PM): Men’s skin is naturally oilier, so you’ll need to take extra care of it. Begin and end your day by cleansing your face to remove dirt that has accumulated on your skin. This will make it less susceptible to breakouts and will make it look much healthier. To keep your skin from drying out, use a face wash that is free of artificial fragrances, soaps, parabens, and alcohol.

• Exfoliate and use a Toner: Have you ever wondered why your skin appears dull at times? Your skin cells are constantly dying and must be eliminated in order for new ones to grow to fill the void. Exfoliate once or twice a week with either small granules free of microbeads that you rub onto your skin to remove dead skin cells or a chemical exfoliant made of mild fruit acids that will eat away the dead bits. Exfoliating helps to keep your skin soft and feels wonderful. Post exfoliate, use a toner. Yes, this is one of the most popular products among men! What a simple way to keep your skin looking young, clear, firm, and hydrated all through the day. However, avoid using alcohol-based toners because they will dry out your skin, causing it to produce more unwanted oil.

• Remember to apply moisturizer: Simply because it’s hot in summer doesn’t imply you shouldn’t moisturize. Look for a lightweight moisturizer that absorbs quickly and keeps your skin hydrated without leaving an oily texture. Remember to use a high-SPF sunscreen and protect your skin. As we adore the summer weather and spend a lot of time outside, our exposure to the sun increases, and the sun rays can be harmful.

• Go to a beauty salon: There appears to be a stigma attached to men visiting salons. We are here to tell you that it’s perfectly fine for men to visit a salon for a facial, manicure, pedicure, waxing, or other beauty treatments and that it’s not a scary place. Because methodologies have changed, men now deserve equal consideration as women.

• Trim your nails & wax your hair: It’s easier to cut the nails right after a bath or shower because the heat and moisture make them better to cut. And here’s a question- are you embarrassed to take your t-shirt off because of your body hair? Waxing could be the solution. Waxing is not without pain, but it is well worth it. The more you wax, the less painful it will be because your hair will begin to thin and your skin will become accustomed to the process. Alternatively, listen to the experts and schedule a manicure, pedicure, or waxing session at least once a month. 

• Get yourself a facial: What a great reason to treat yourself, reap the benefits of great skin care products, and improve your complexion! A facial always includes an element of pampering, designed to help charge up and kick-start you for the days ahead. As an ODD client, you will receive exceptional service, including a full consultation with our specialists to discuss skin concerns and receive expert advice on home care.
