🚹 What does a good skincare routine for men look like?

hint: it's easy

Apr 16, 2021

Please please please do yourself a favor and buy skincare products this weekend... if you don't have a routine.

I say this because your skin should be taken care of like your teeth. The benefits can be anti-aging and clear nasty dead skin off your face. You’ll look brighter, fresher - and feel it too.

Plus, I made it easy for you (if this is out of your wheelhouse).

Check out the simple steps and products I use for my routines.

🧺 brand of the week: Filling Pieces

In 2009, Guillaume Philibert wanted to design a premium sneaker at a fair price point. This led to the birth of the Low Top. The first shoe to bridge the gap between streetwear and high fashion. The Low Top became more than just a piece of footwear. It was a symbol of affordable, luxury design. A product that leveled the playing field. One that proved good design can unify. A sneaker adopted by people of all sexes, races, religions, and sexualities.

✔️ easy skincare steps for you

the night before

pre-step: Exfoliate

Ole Henriksen Pore Balance Facial Sauna Scrub

why exfoliate?

Physical and chemical exfoliation helps brighten your skin by stripping off old skin cells, revealing the new ones underneath. It’ll unclog pores and helps reduce acne breakouts.
