NOURISH YOUR SKIN
In order to provide your skin with the nutrients it needs, we need to go beyond the surface level of the skin.

Like moisturisers, serums are topical products, with hydrating properties for your skin. Unlike moisturisers though, they are designed to pe*****te into the deeper layers of your skin.

Serums are made with a combination of vitamins, minerals and targeted active ingredients, such as retinol and hyaluronic acid.

Serums are usually a clear, gel-based liquid, that’s not as heavy as creams, allowing them to pe*****te and hydrate the skin at a deeper level.

Depending on what’s in the serum, these vitamins and active ingredients help to support the lower layer in a variety of ways, from boosting collagen production or promoting skin cell turnover.

Men rarely use serums in their skincare but they are a great way to boost overall skin health.

That’s why serums have a clear, gel-based liquid, that’s not as heavy as creams, allowing them to pe*****te and hydrate the skin at a deeper level.

CLEANSE YOUR SKIN

Before applying any additional products to your face, you want to make sure your face is clean, which is going to require more than just a quick splash of water.

Throughout the day your mug will accumulate pollutants, excess oil, dead skin, dirt and grime.

These can buildup on your skin, which could potentially lead to breakouts, dehydration both of which can lead to you looking older than you really are.

Cleansers help by not only cleaning the skin but keeping it hydrated as well. by helping to manage our skin PH levels, the cleanser helps our skin to retain water.

We want our skin to stay hydrated to ensure wrinkles and fine lines are reduced as much as possible.

Our cleanser leaves your skin looking brighter and can help to improve the absorption of moisturisers/ serums as well as helping to unclog pores.

PROTECT YOUR SKIN

A skincare routine is no good if you’re dead.

We can’t stress enough how important it is to protect yourself from the sun. Statistically, men are more prone to do dying of skin cancer than women.

‘’The risk of mortality is also higher for men - 67% of Australians who die from skin cancer are men’’

Men tend to work jobs that require them to be outside and exposed to the sun more. This coupled with men’s ‘’she’ll be right, no worries attitude’’ leads a lot of men to expose themselves to risk unnecessarily.

THE SIMPLIFIED MEN’S SKINCARE ROUTINE

Men’s skincare routines don’t need to be complicated. We have enough going on in life without adding more to our to-do list.

‘’When we initially started testing our range, we quickly found that men do not want to invest a lot of time in their skincare routine. If it can’t be done in 5 minutes, they're not interested.

Below we’ve highlighted our top four tips for getting your mug to look the best it possibly can.

Not only does this provide relief for manic beards, it allows bearded men a greater opportunity of expression, though being able to style their beard.

The main difference between the balms and oils is the use of butter and waxes found in a beard balm.

Waxes are a combination of fatty acids and fatty alcohols.

They can be derived from plants or animals, with the most common being beeswax and carnauba wax. However, there are plenty more varieties ranging from rice wax to castor wax.

The use of waxes helps balms to be more resistant to both oxidization and bacterial infection. This allows the products to have a longer shelf life and reduce the need for chemical preservatives.

Butters, such as Shea and cocoa, is also utilized in balms. These natural fats help to provide a creamy softness to moisturize skin.

They also help in soothing skin and providing antimicrobial properties, further reducing the risk of your product becoming infected.

Balms, like beard oil, contain both carrier and essential oils but to a lesser extent than beard oils. Essential oils can be used in balm for both natural benefits, as well as being used for aroma.

Carrier oils provide the same benefits as they do in beard oil and are often blended in with the waxes and kinds of butter as they are heated and melted together.

WHAT IS BEARD BALM?
There are nearly as many beard products as there are beard styles.

But there's one beard product that is a mainstay classic.

Beard Balm.

Like beard oil, beard balm nourishes and hydrates your beard, it is different in it’s physical consistency though, as unlike the oils it has a base made up of things like beeswax or shea butter.

This base makes the balm into a creamy, waxy substance that is designed to provide additional hold to your beard that cannot be found in beard oil.

Let's dive in and find out everything we need to know about beard balm.

WHAT TO USE TO WASH YOUR HAIR?
The obvious answer here is shampoo and conditioner. Sold at supermarkets, chemists and everywhere in between. Remember not all shampoos and conditioners are created equal.

This is a situation where price equals quality. cheaper shampoos will get get your hair clean but they are also full of chemicals that will strip your hair of it's natural oils. this will leave it more vulnerable to fizz, split ends and overall weaker hair.

Look for products that have natural or naturally derived ingredients, such as surfactants made from coconut oil. also take time to consider the impact the products will have on the environment.

The more products you have, the more plastic waste you'll produce. Here at primary man, we focus on simplicity which is why our 3 in 1 body wash allows you to wash and condition your hair, all from one bottle. this will save you time, as well as reduce both waste and water usage.

CLEANING YOUR HAIR CAN HELP WITH HAIR GROWTH

Unwashed hair not only affects the hair itself but also the scalp. Your scalp can become inflamed, causing redness, bumps and itchiness.

This can be mildly annoying at first but prolonged inflammation of the scalp can lead to much more serious problems, chief among them is hair loss.

A healthy scalp creates an environment for healthy hair growth.

The scalps hair follicles are where our hair grows from, our hair has three phases of growth (Anagen, Catagen and Telogen) and each of these phases require a healthy scalp in order o function properly.

Our scalp provides blood flow and nutrients to the hair, if our scalp is inflamed and does not function properly our hair suffers as a result.

To look after your scalp, make sure you’re not going hell for leather when washing your hair.

Gently massage your hair wash into the scalp. Additionally, look for products that are free of harsh chemicals and contain ingredients that are beneficial to the skin, such as Shea butter or grapeseed oil.

YOUR HAIR GETS DIRTY QUICKLY

If you’re out and about each day, your hair has to combat UV rays, air pollution and more. all of these elements can make you dirty. Additionally, if you’re inside all day, don’t think you’re safe either.

Your hair can still become greasy from excess oil produced by our sebaceous glands, dead skin cells, sweat and product build-up.

All of this combined can quickly make your hair get out of control. This unwashed environment is prone to producing microfauna, which can create excessive dandruff.

To help reduce damage from the external environment, we recommend you wash your hair with products that can naturally protect from UV rays, such as rice bran oil.

UNCLEAN HAIR LOWERS YOUR SOCIAL STATUS

Greasy, matted messy hair is not a sexy look. Whether we like it or not, humans are visual creatures and judgment has been shown to pass in as little as a tenth of a second.

Poorly maintained unwashed hair speaks volumes before you have even opened your mouth. Studies have shown that even as far back as high school:

‘For both male and female students, being well-groomed was associated with statistically higher GPAs. Possible explanations include teacher discrimination and the difference in student objectives.’

Data has also found that men who spent more time grooming found that individuals who spent more time grooming also earned higher wages.

When you meet someone for the first time, you’re judged head to toe and if the hair on the top of your head is poorly maintained, you have already lost.

WHY YOU NEED TO WASH YOUR HAIR

We don’t want to have to write this article.

Washing your hair should be a given but it’s come to our attention that way too many men flat out don’t wash their hair at all or way too infrequently.

Washing your hair helps to clean out excess oil, product build-up and debris absorbed throughout the day. By washing your hair, you enhance the overall strength of your hair, make it easier to style and promote hair growth through a clean and healthy scalp.
