When Alison asked me about my personal beauty routine, I wasn't shy in responding. I think it's important - why shouldn't men look after their skin?!
So here it is...
I have had a skincare routine for many years - I started using after-shave moisturiser over 25 years ago when it was considered a very weird thing to do! Now my routine changes depending on new products that come along. I have a heavy beard growth and so shaving is a major pain the neck... literally!
To shave I use Decleor Rassage Express found in the shaving duo - it really softens the beard and sets up well for wet shaving. Afterwards I moisturise with a Decleor moisturiser.
Around my eyes I like to use (Alison's recommendation) either Aromessence Iris from Decleor or Rosehip oil from A'kin - both of which have an amazing effect.
I exfoliate about once a week to get rid of all the dead skin and make-up that I have to wear on air. I've used lots but have recently tried Clientele Elastology Thermal Pumpkin Scrub. It feels a bit weird when you first use it as it warms up and gets really hot, but it works well.
So... who says real men don't do skincare!
Love Simon xx
