WHY THE EVENING ROUTINE IS ESSENTIAL FOR MEN'S SKIN

Men's skin has a reputation for being uncomplicated and consistent. That's not true as you have probably already noticed: Although men's skin is generally much thicker than its female counterpart, it doesn't mean that is has less or fewer needs. Your skin will be affected by shaving and environmental influences throughout the day - two important factors that bring the pH value of your skin out of balance and can make your skin feel irritated, dry or greasy.

FACTORS THAT BRING MEN'S SKIN OUT OF BALANCE

In addition to its individual genetic predisposition, your skin is also subject to some external influences that can impair its well-being and weaken its natural protective barrier.

STRESS, STRESS, STRESS

The hormone cortisol, which is released during stress, weakens your skin barrier and therefore also weakens its natural protection against environmental influences. This makes your skin thinner and prone to dryness and irritation. In addition, the inflammation values in your body increase which stimulate the sebum production of your skin and favor skin impurities. In order to help your skin heal itself, it is therefore advisable to reduce stress.

AN IMBALANCED LIFESTYLE

Regular consumption of alcohol, an unbalanced diet, and UVA and UVB radiation promote the formation of free radicals. These insidious oxygen molecules damage the structural proteins elastin, keratin and collagen contained in your skin. The result: your skin loses its fullness and elasticity.

NOT ENOUGH SLEEP

While you sleep, the regeneration processes of your skin run at full speed to repair skin damage and restore the protection of the skin barrier. Too little sleep hinders this effective self-healing mechanism and brings your skin out of balance.

THE DOCTOR Mi! EVENING ROUTINE FOR MEN'S SKIN

Complicated applications, countless additional tools and seemingly endless care routines? Don't worry: you can prepare men's skin for the upcoming night in just three simple steps and effectively care for it.

CLEAN MEN

Distribute a pea-sized amount of CLEAN MEN on your moistened face in the evening. Massage the gentle cleansing gel by Doctor Mi! into your skin and wash it off with warm water. The special formulation of the gel ensures that your sebum production is regulated and that it receives important ingredients that keep its pH value in balance. Use a clean towel to pat your skin dry and avoid aggressive rubbing to prevent wrinkling.

TONE MEN

Put 2-3 sprays of TONE MEN in the evening onto a cotton pad and clean your face with it. Avoid contact with mouth and nose with this product and avoid the area around the eyes. TONE MEN removes excess, dead skin cells from your skin surface in a very gentle but effective way and at the same time preserves the skin's own moisture.

NIGHT MEN

After cleansing, apply the Doctor Mi! night cream for men's skin, NIGHT MEN, on your face and neck. Massage it into your skin and let it absorb completely. In addition to the anti-aging active ingredient miracle Retinol, skin-like ceramides repair your skin structure while you sleep.

MEN'S SKIN SPECIAL: EXTRA TIPS FOR A REFINED SKIN APPEARANCE

Our habits not only define and influence our everyday life but our skin too: This also applies to men's skin. Follow our tips to make enlarged pores and skin blemishes a thing of the past and benefit from a vital, even complexion.

Sun protection is essential

After your morning routine for men's skin, apply sun protection with a sun protection factor of 50+ during the day. Your skin is exposed to UVA and UVB radiation all year round, even when you are indoors. This radiation not only has a considerable influence on the formation of wrinkles and pigment disorders: If the skin is exposed continuously and unprotected, it can no longer guarantee its natural protection and the pH value of your skin will fall out of balance. This fosters the development of inflammations and skin impurities as the weakened skin barrier offers a very solid breeding ground for bacteria.

IMMEDIATE CLEANING AFTER EXERCISING

There is no question about it - exercising is good for our bodies and gives your skin a healthy glow as it is particularly well supplied with blood and oxygen. You will also sweat out toxins, boost your metabolism and reduce stress. These positive effects of physical training promote a firmer complexion but be careful: sweat that escapes from your skin during training can clog your pores. In addition, gym equipment is often real source for bacteria. Cleanse your face immediately after exercising with an effective but gentle cleanser to prevent irritation. We recommend CLEAN MEN, a powerful yet gentle cleansing gel that removes sweat, sebum and dirt from your skin without drying it out or affecting its pH value.

CHANGE YOUR PILLOWCASE REGULARLY

Change your pillowcase 1–2 times a week. You will minimize the contact of your skin with bacteria at night. This is an effective way of preventing inflammation caused by clogged sebum glands which promote impurities.

FAQ: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE EVENING ROUTINE FOR MEN'S SKIN

In the following, you will get specific answers to the most frequently asked questions about the evening routine for men's skin.

• Is an evening routine necessary for men?
  During the day, your skin is affected by various environmental influences and requires thorough cleansing and special care in the evening. We recommend that you use an effective and beneficial night care product after cleaning: Our night care product NIGHT MEN will support your skin optimally and offer it highly effective ingredients that nourish and regenerate it. Skin-like active ingredients such as ceramides and high-quality TECMi!® Retinol boost your skin while you sleep to ensure cell renewal and optimize the skin's own regeneration processes.

• Why should I use Retinol in the evening?
  Retinol is the only scientifically proven active ingredient that prevents skin aging: Retinol promotes the formation of new collagen, supports cell renewal and therefore leads to an effective reduction in wrinkles. Since your skin undergoes cell renewal processes while you are sleeping, the evening use of products containing Retinol is ideal. To give your skin the best possible support for its revitalizing processes at night, the innovative TECMi!® Retinol by Doctor Mi! medical skincare is the best choice: You will maximize the care properties of conventional Retinol and accelerate its effects considerably.

• Why should I use Retinol in the evening?
  The needs of your skin differ from day to night. More specifically, this means that your skin needs a different dosages of Retinol in the evening than during the day. That is why we recommend our morning routine for men's skin.
