2023 Skincare Trends For Men Worth Trying
From facial treatments to natural skincare inventions, these are some skincare trends for men you can use to upgrade your regime.
With cutting-edge technology, innovative products and better skincare techniques for men, the latest trends emerge constantly. Whether it’s trying out different moisturisers or experimenting with different facial treatments, there are plenty of ways to stay on top of your skincare game.
”Men's grooming routines have developed far beyond the old reliable quick shave and comb-over. The man of today dedicates time and effort to looking presentable during office hours and leisure time. Plus more and more men are interested in learning about good grooming practices,” explains Clere For Men brand manager Themba Ndlovu.
Here are a few skincare trends for men
1 | Skin Minimalism At Its Finest
This trend works well with multifunctional products. “We’ll hinder the use of unnecessary products and instead opting for the bare minimum for the most effective results”, says Ndlovu. I believe it's about quality over quantity. A minimalistic skincare routine should include the following, says Ndlovu:
Wash your skin twice a day.
Moisturise for protection in the morning
Moisturise for evening restoration
2 | Body Care Is Skincare
We should give as much attention to our bodies as our faces, says Ndlovu.” Experts are touting body care as the new skincare, and while products that combine skincare and body care are on the rise, 2023 will see this trend growing." Clere For Men Gly-Co-Jelly Ice is great to use on the body, providing 48 hour moisturisation.
3 | Natural And Organic Products Is Smart
Health represents wealth and natural, organic, clean skincare products are shining right now, says Danielle Weakley, Editor of Modern Beauty and Modern Wellness. This skincare trend has been growing for a few years and shows no signs of slowing down. The value of spending on natural skincare cannot be understated, Weakley adds. “Not only do you benefit from natural, often local, ingredients and results, but you also contribute to sustainability.” Weleda Skin Food is worth the investment.
4 | Go For Skincare Treatments
The last few years men have seen the need for skincare treatments, says Cape Town Dermatologist, Dilshaad Asmal. Dr. Asmal also confirms that “Popular treatments like micro-needling, LED therapy or even just an essential facial will target any skincare concerns and take your grooming game to the next level”.
5 | Invest In Niche Fragrances
Consumers are much more educated about fragrances than before. They want quality ingredients and longevity in a scent that goes beyond marketing campaigns says fellow South African Steyn Grobler, Founder of Aqualis London. “Fragrances are increasingly seen as a luxury accessory and a way for the discerning individual to differentiate themselves”, adds Grobler. “It has become a status symbol to wear fragrances that are niche”.
