What Characterizes Men’s Skin?
Men’s skin is 10% thicker than women’s. The male hormone, testosterone, doubles and alters Sebum production, making their skin oilier and more prone to irritations and inflammations. It also contains more collagen, delaying the appearance of signs of aging, though they may be deeper when they eventually show up.
On average, a man shaves about 16,000 times in his life. Despite rarely having dry skin due to a significant hydrolipidic film, men still need to care for their repeated shavings, which can stress the skin.
