Top 10 Face Washes For Men in India, Prices, Buy Online

By Sanchita

For a woman, it is very easy to choose a face wash from plethora of brands available in Indian market but for men, things are slightly difficult. Firstly, not every possible brand comes up with a face wash for men and their skin’s texture is also a bit different than us. My brother always used to finish off my Ponds Oil Control face wash as he had this super oily skin with acne issues. Well, he isn’t alone – most of them has somewhat similar skin texture that requires a good cleansing that would swipe off all the greasy layers along with the prevention of acne.

Skincare Tips for Men

Skincare Tips for Men

Men mostly ignore their skin and never pay attention to even the basic things, which can in turn matter a lot, in the long run, to keep their skin younger and nicer looking.

Some things men need to follow:

  • Use a mild facewash: Determine your skin type and use a gentle cleanser/face wash and ditch those soap bars. You can try the new Garnier Men Oil Clear Facewash if you have oily skin and the Garnier Men Acnofight Facewash if you have acne. And if you have normal to dry skin, you can try Garnier Men Powerlight Facewash
  • Always use a good moisturiser: Moisturising the skin is also equally important, for all skin types. You can try Garnier Men Powerlight Oil Control & Fairness Moisturiser. If you have oily skin, the oil control would help you keep a check on that too throughout the day.
  • Use a good high SPF sunscreen everyday: Do not skip a sunscreen. Since most of you must be out in the sun, throughout the day, you should definitely use a sunscreen 365 days.
  • Use a mild exfoliator (not an harsh scrub) with AHA and/or BHA to get rid of the dead skin cells, and help regenerate the new skin cells.
  • Use a product containing benzoyl peroxide overnight, if you have acne.
  • Use a good, rich night cream if you have dry skin.

Now some don’ts:

  • Do not use a soap bar: Bar soaps are drying and irritating which irritates and inflames skin, plus the ingredients that put bar cleansers into their bar form can clog pores. Routinely using bar soap on your face can also impede shaving, potentially leading to razor bumps and a more frequent need to replace your razor blade.
  • Do not go for products with too many fragrance ingredients : That will only irritate the skin more.
  • Do not buy cheap razors: Invest in some good ones. Your skin will thank you, in the long run.

I guess some basic do’s and don’ts is only what men need to follow for good skin. And they are good to go !
