Abby's Magazine - Volume 6 Issue 5 | Page 17 "If men want to keep skin youthful and healthy looking, they've got to make skin care a part of their daily regimen," says Mathew Avram, MD, JD faculty member at Harvard Medical School. Sun and smoking are your face's worst enemies because both cause skin damage and wrinkling. "If you smoke, quit," Avram says. "Using a moisturizer with a natural and/or organic sunblock is a very effective way to prevent aging and wrinkling." A Checklist for Great (Manly) Skin Choosing skin products at Abby's Health & Nutrition: • Think "moisturizer" when buying soaps -- body and hand soaps, that is. • Buy a face moisturizer that contains a healthy and natural sunblock or sunscreen. • If you've got dry skin, buy a light moisturizing body lotion for summer. • During winter months, buy heavier moisturizing creams or ointments. • If dry skin is really a problem, thicker and greasier is better. • Always use a good a healthy and natural sunscreen outdoors (SPF 15 or higher). • Take lukewarm showers (instead of hot ones). • Limit shower time to 5 or 10 minutes. • Apply moisturizing lotion right after drying from the shower. • Moisturize after washing hands. Getting a great shave: • Shave in a warm shower. Or carefully put a hot, wet towel over your face for a few minutes before shaving. • Massage shaving cream or gels into skin. • Don't shave too close. Use single- edged razors to protect skin from irritation. You'll also reduce potential for ingrown hairs -- especially if your beard is curly. • Shave only in one direction if you tend to get ingrown hairs. Shave in the direction of hair growth. • Wash with plenty of water. Pat gently with a towel; don't rub. • Apply moisturizing cream (containing a healthy and natural sunblock) to soothe and protect the skin. New Chapter ® is proud to be a Certified B Corp.
