What to Look for in a Body Lotion For Men

Moisturizing Oils

Sometimes lotion ingredients look like food ingredient lists. Oils like olive oil, avocado, and pumpkin seed are popping up more often. They have many benefits for your skin so you might be able to use a moisturizer with one or more of them. Marie Hayag MD, a dermatologist and founder of 5th Avenue Aesthetics, said that avocado oil is a great choice for skin. “It both softens skin and traps moisture and emollients onto it.”

Vitamins and antioxidants

We all know this: Just when you thought that you were getting enough nutrients from your diet, you now have to apply them to your skin. Yes, you can, and your skin will be grateful. Vitamins have been praised for their contribution to skincare, including the ability of vitamins C & E to fight free radicals.

Appealing Fragrance (or none at all)

A fragrance-free lotion is essential for those suffering from headaches due to synthetic fragrances. The scent can last for quite some time as lotion is applied all over the body. For those who love fragranced products, it is important to make sure that you are comfortable with the product you put on your skin.

Does it make sense for men to use body creams?

Men’s skin can get dry, but men often don’t use lotion. It could be that lotion is considered a woman’s product or that men prefer a more low-maintenance body care regimen. Even though men don’t often use lotion, it doesn’t mean that they wouldn’t benefit from having their skin feel hydrated.

When should men apply body lotion?

No matter what gender, everyone should use the same body lotion. This should happen after you have taken a bath or taken a shower. First, dry off and then moisturize. You can moisturize even if your skin is slightly damp. Before applying any other products, let the lotion dry completely.

What happens if you don’t apply lotion to your body?

Lotion moisturizes the skin and makes it less dry. If you don’t moisturize your skin if it is dry, it may become more dry. If your skin becomes dry, it can become flaky. This is particularly true in winter, when the temperature is cold and the humidity is low.
