3 steps to a simple skincare routine for men
We’ve created a simple skincare routine for our male clients, considering a few differences in skin types.
Men’s skin is different to women’s skin. It is thicker by about 20%, it has a higher level of sebum (natural oils) and more pores. For men who shave daily or regularly, their skin is also prone to sensitivity and breakouts.
Our certified organic Rosehip Oil is one of our best-selling products for men and women.
The oil that is derived from the rosehip has been used since ancient times for improving skin and hair quality.
Vitamin A and essential fatty acids in Rosehip Oil are anti-ageing nutrients. The latest research shows that Vitamin A (trans-retinoic acid or tretinoin) helps to prevent premature ageing by stimulating collagen production. Essential fatty acids Omega 3 and 6, have anti-inflammatory properties and help skin conditions such as acne, eczema and psoriasis.
Our Certified Organic Rosehip Oil is the world’s original and the finest quality Rosehip Oil on the market. Containing the highest level of Vitamin A, it stimulates collagen production and is high in essential fatty acids and antioxidants to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and to soothe the skin after shaving.

Steps to an easy to manage skincare routine – made just for men
Step 1 – Cleanse
Use a cleanser twice a day, in the morning and at night. Using a cleanser in the morning will remove any oils, dirt or bacteria that has accumulated from sweating overnight. In the evening, cleansing wipes away the day’s build-up of toxins and anything else that your skin comes into contact with. And isn’t it nice to go to bed with a clean face?
We recommend our Clarifying Facial Wash which is a gentle, natural foaming cleanser to clarify and tone the skin while maintaining its moisture content. Ideal for men’s skin.
Step 2 – Moisturise
Moisturising is essential to maintain a good level of hydration in your skin. It also balances excessive sebum production if your skin is oily. Rosehip Oil is ideal for oily skin.
Following your cleanse, apply Rosehip Oil by massaging it into damp skin. If you don’t mind cleansing in the shower, the perfect time to apply Rosehip Oil is right after a shower when your skin is supple and receptive. You only need 3-4 drops and gently massage the oil into your damp skin for best results.

A creamy moisturiser
If you prefer a creamy moisturiser, we recommend our Nourishing Treatment Cream which is an ultra-hydrating treatment cream for the face. You’ll love the feeling of this cream, it is smooth, and spreads evenly across the skin, leaving it feeling replenished and rejuvenated.
A nourishing, rich, and ultra-hydrating treatment cream for the face.
