Shiny skin in summer: what can men do about it?

Facial cleansing made easy for men. Especially in summer, facial skin can quickly become oily and shiny. Men are also affected by this. Regular facial cleansing and a healthy diet can prevent shiny skin. Find out what else you can do to impress with radiant skin in summer in this blog post.

Why is skin more oily in summer?

In summer, men's skin can become oily and shiny due to various factors. One of the main reasons is the increased production of sebum by the sebaceous glands. This is because sebum production is influenced by hormones such as testosterone, which can increase in the body at higher temperatures.

In addition, the high humidity in summer can cause the skin to absorb more moisture and become more oily. When it comes into contact with sweat and dirt, oily residues can form on the surface of the skin, clogging the pores and leading to skin problems.

A healthy diet to combat shiny skin

You are what you eat. To avoid oily and shiny skin, as a man you should pay attention to what you eat. A high-fat diet can also cause the skin to become oily and shiny more quickly. You should therefore avoid particularly fatty foods and large amounts of sweets. Another way to reduce shiny skin is to drink plenty of fluids. And no, we're not talking about beer at a summer barbecue, but water. Because well-moisturised skin is generally healthier and also detoxifies the body.

Regular facial cleansing to combat oily skin

Good nutrition is the first step against shiny facial skin in men. But what is even more important is professional facial cleansing. And yes, cosmetics are definitely an issue for modern men too. We will now show you how to optimally cleanse your skin.

• Deep cleansing for men:
  Regular facial cleansing (at least once a day) helps to combat impurities on the facial skin and prevent it from drying out. Our special facial cleanser for men prevents oily and shiny male skin and contains only natural ingredients such as organic cucumber, organic nettle and organic orange mint.
• Revitalising moisturiser for dull male skin:
  After cleansing their face, men should reach for a suitable moisturiser that is quickly absorbed and at the same time prevents greasiness. As paradoxical as it may sound, the right face cream can even counteract excessive sebum production.
• Use oil-free and natural men's cosmetics:
  In general, men with shiny skin should look for natural cosmetics with little or no oils when it comes to facial care. Facial care products with natural ingredients trigger fewer allergic reactions and are generally better tolerated. And the environment will thank you for it.
