As we age, our skin cells take longer to renew. Dead cells that hang around too long can clog pores, cause acne, ingrown hairs, dull skin, and wrinkles.
So, the point of using a face scrub (also known as an exfoliator), is to remove those dead skin cells that build up on the face and which cause clogging of the pores.
It’s a biological fact that skin cells turnover about every two weeks, meaning, your face has new skin cells every two weeks. However, your face doesn’t shed the dead skin cells very efficiently, and over time, those dead skin cells accumulate and can cause a dull looking complexion.
For younger men, the process takes roughly 30 days. But as men grow older their skin cells begin the shedding becomes less efficient and thus require some encouragement.
So, what’s the solution – use a men’s face scrub to clear away the build-up and present your radiant, healthy looking well-polished face to the world.
A good facial scrub will also take your shave to a whole new level.
This is because, when it comes to shaving, it’s important to create as little resistance between your skin and razor as possible. The exfoliating properties of a face scrub means there is less dirt and oil left on your face to clog up your razor, and this means a lower r chance of razor rash, ingrown hairs, and irritation.
Our reviewer was very, very impressed with Neal’s Yard Remedies Revitalising Face Scrub.
You just simply massage it onto wet skin before shaving and rinse away, to provide a very smooth shave. He used it every 2 to 3 days and also saw a noticeable in complexion and skin radiance. Using it regularly will also reduce both blackheads and ingrown hairs!
He found it to be so gentle on the skin, and left his face feeling refreshed and exceptionally clean. It smells wonderfully subtle, and you only need a small amount each wash. It doesn’t dry the skin out, doesn’t sting and works effectively on all skin types including sensitive skin.
