Yes, exfoliation. It's one of the modern wonders of the male world! I am frequently told by my wife that, "You need a bit of slap on there, dear." So off I trot upstairs to locate my favourite aloe vera product and give my face its much needed blob. I suffer from a combination of both oily and dry skin. So in trying to leave the oily bits well alone, the dry areas suffer and it can become incredibly sore.
Once a week now, whether I need to or not(!), I use a gentle exfoliator - usually in the shower, the warm moist atmosphere does wonders for my skin in any case. If you rub it between your fingers, the exfoliator will feel slightly gritty. This has the effect of gently sloughing away the top layer of dead skin cells - don't rub too hard as the product does the work for you. Once done, rinse it off and then wash your face with a moisturising face wash.
On removing from the shower, it's a good idea to use your aloe vera product to finish the job. Your skin will feel much better and look a million dollars too! It's a good idea to use the aloe vera as an after shave balm too.
Any road up, that's enough male skin care advice for now, check back soon to see what else is happening in the Jellybaby Universe...
