As far as sun protection is concerned, many people focus on protecting their face, and fail to recognise the significance of protecting the rest of their body. Whilst there’s no doubt that it’s vital to shield the face against the sun’s rays, when sunbathing or wearing minimal clothing you also need to ensure that you pay the same amount of attention to shielding your body.

Most sunscreens are most effective when applied around 30 minutes prior to sun exposure, although this can vary from product to product. If you are planning on exercising or taking a dip in the pool, it’s always a good idea to pop your sunscreen into your bag and take it out with you so that you can reapply it when you need to.

The sun is notorious for really drying out the skin, so invest in a sunscreen which not only guards against UVA and UVB sunlight, but which also hydrates the skin simultaneously.

Dermalogica Multivitamin Bodyblock is the perfect way to protect your body on those hot summers days, and is particularly popular due to its ability to effectively shield skin whilst intensely nourishing and helping to combat the effects of previous sun damage. Unlike many sunscreens, you don’t have to worry about skin feel greasy and sticky all day, as this product sinks into the skin effortlessly.

Keep skin looking amazing all summer long with a little helping hand from Dermalogica.

Admit it, many of you men have sneakily (or perhaps even brazenly!) had a rummage through your girlfriend’s skincare products and tried them out for yourself. In fact, rather than quickly applying a little of their girlfriend’s moisturiser on the odd the occasion in the hope that they don’t get caught, many men use their other half’s skincare products on a regular basis.

It may be 2010, but unfortunately, some men still feel that there is a certain stigma attached to buying and using men’s skincare products. This often prevents them from venturing out and leads to them using any old products which may be lying around the house.

In today’s society though, with top male celebrities endorsing men’s skincare products and encouraging the everyday man to follow suit, there really is no shame in taking pride in your appearance.

Whether they’re willing to admit it or not, many men are just as concerned with their appearance as women are- which is why there are some amazing and effective skincare products out there for men nowadays.

To get your own personal skincare regime off to the best start, pick up the Dermalogica Shave System Kit, which has everything you need to transform your skin for the better. As you can order the Shave System Kit online you don’t even need to venture into a ‘girly’ shop to buy it!

For many men, shaving isn’t the most pleasurable of tasks and is nothing more than a necessity which needs to be performed on a regular basis in order to achieve a clean-cut look.

Unless you’re intentionally growing facial hair, the unkempt unshaven look is generally not a good one- especially for those who need to maintain a professional image.

Those with sensitive skin can find shaving even more of a chore, especially if skin feels dry, tight and irritated after every shave.

Unfortunately, shaving can irritate even the most resilient of skin, although on the plus side, with so many fantastic shaving products on the market, it’s now easier than ever to achieve a close shave without skin having to suffer.

A great product for men with skin on the sensitive side is Dermalogica Soothing Shave Cream, which not only assists in achieving an incredibly close shave, but also calms, invigorates and hydrates skin along the way.

With Dermalogica Soothing Shave Cream, not only is skin left soft and supple, anti-bacterial properties help to keep breakouts at bay.

So, to achieve a close shave, eliminate irritation and revel in smooth skin, turn to Dermalogica- what more could a man ask for?!
