Man Made Products
Until recently, spa and beauty products were strictly considered “girl stuff.” Walking into the cosmetics area of a department store or a beauty supply boutique is intimidating enough for women. Can you imagine how a man would feel? The market for men’s spa products was untapped in the past, but companies wised up. Soon, plenty of cleverly packaged skincare lines specifically targeted for men popped up in stores, as well as unisex products.

With a clean, streamlined look, Peter Thomas Roth’s skincare line appeals to everyone, in both aesthetics and performance of the products. While some men might forgo using a mask, PTR’s cleansers, scrubs, and moisturizers are a great alternative to getting started. Men need not be embarrassed having these handsome bottles in their bathrooms.
Sothys Paris also created a skincare line, Sothys Homme, for the specific needs of men’s skin. Their Phytomalt (re)generation line includes new high technology (hi-tech sounds so manly) formulations for hydrating, toning, anti-wrinkle, and anti-pollution.
Another great choice is the MD Skincare’s line for men. The sporty gray and orange bottles will attract the active man. Men will love the ease of their One-Step Daily Facial Pads. A quick swipe over his face helps his shaving-related issues and includes the good stuff like antioxidants and moisturizing ingredients that men need, but would rather not talk about.

Yon-Ka also has a new luxury line of skincare for men. Their high quality unique formulations draw in a strong following with great textures and most importantly, visible results. Men’s skin tends to be oilier, thicker, and subject to more damage due to daily shaving, so Yon-ka has tailor-made a comprehensive line to help men keep up with great skin. The masculine yet elegant, deep red design of these easy-to-use flip cap tubes and bottles make it appealing to the manliest of men.
For those men who want simple luxury and lavishness, the Pevonia line for him including the Age-Defying Caviar Balm and Aqua Gel foaming Cleanser, offer an unsurpassed formula to sooth, firm and repair damaged skin. Caviar, green tea, marine elastin and vitamins combine together in these re-energizing products to release all impurities and leave skin looking and feeling youthful and refreshed.
“Grooming and taking care of oneself is a not just a luxury, but a necessity for both sexes.”
If your man still believes it’s too girly, buy him a starter kit (the Ideal Shave Kit by Peter Thomas Roth is fantastic). Once it’s in the bathroom, he’ll use it and never go back to a simple soap and water routine. But be warned: you might be stuck having to go to the store and get it for him.
