How to Get Clear Skin for Men: 10 Expert Tips

Clear skin isn’t just about vanity - it’s a signal of internal balance, hormonal health, and a well-functioning gut. Yet many men are never taught how to take care of their skin properly. Shaving rash, oil build-up, or breakouts after a night out? It’s more common than you think - and easier to fix than you realise.

Let’s break it down with science, simplicity, and sustainable rituals you can actually stick to.

Understanding Men’s Skin: Key Differences

Men’s skin isn’t just “thicker” - it behaves differently. Thanks to higher testosterone levels, male skin tends to:

• Produce more sebum (oil)

• Be 25% thicker

• Age slower (but more dramatically when it does)

• Be more prone to enlarged pores and blackheads

That means products and routines designed for women often fall short. A tailored approach is essential - one that respects your biology while addressing external stressors like pollution, stress, and sweat.

Identifying Your Skin Type

Before you grab a cleanser or moisturiser, get clear on your skin’s baseline. You might be:

• Oily – prone to shine, breakouts, blackheads

• Dry – tight, flaky, easily irritated

• Combination – oily T-zone with dry cheeks

• Sensitive – reactive to fragrance, shaving, weather changes

Knowing your type helps you choose the right formulas - not too harsh, not too rich, just right for your biology.

Daily Skincare Routine for Clear Skin

Forget the 12-step skincare routines. Men’s skin thrives on consistency, not complexity. Here’s your daily blueprint:

Step 1: Drink

Add one scoop of Skincare Greens to cold water, a smoothie, or your favourite juice. That’s it. No capsules. No guesswork. No chasing after external fixes.

Step 2: Absorb

As your body digests the formula, here’s what starts to happen beneath the surface:

• Zinc + vitamin C support collagen production and accelerate healing

• Prebiotics + digestive enzymes rebalance your gut — the control centre of skin health

• Supergreens like barley grass, spirulina, and wheatgrass help your body detox from within, flushing out the root causes of breakouts

• Acerola cherry delivers skin-brightening antioxidants to fight dullness and fatigue
  

You’re not just fuelling your body. You’re actively feeding your skin - from the root.

Step 3: Repair

Consistency is where the magic happens. Over the days and weeks ahead, your skin begins to shift:

• Oil production balances

• Redness and inflammation reduce

• Breakouts heal faster and become less frequent

• Skin feels more hydrated, even without a moisturiser

• Collagen begins to rebuild - naturally

4. Stay Consistent

Clear skin isn’t built overnight - but it is built daily.

When you make Skincare Greens part of your everyday ritual, you’re training your body to stay in balance:

• Digestive health stays supported

• Inflammation stays down

• Collagen keeps building

• And your skin keeps clearing, naturally

You’ll notice it first in how your skin feels. Then how it looks. Then how it glows.

Lifestyle Factors Affecting Skin Health

You can have the best products in the world, but if your lifestyle is off, your skin will show it. Here’s what to fix:

5. Maintain a Balanced Diet

Skin cells are built from the inside out. Prioritise:

• Zinc-rich foods (pumpkin seeds, lentils) for acne reduction

• Omega-3s (chia, flaxseed, wild fish) for inflammation

• Antioxidants (leafy greens, berries) to protect collagen

Hint: That’s why we made Skincare Greens - doctor-formulated to deliver skin-first nutrition without overthinking your meals.

6. Stay Hydrated

Your skin is your largest detox organ. Dehydration = dullness, congestion, and flakiness. Aim for 2–3L a day - more if you sweat.

7. Prioritise Quality Sleep

Skin repairs and regenerates while you sleep. Deep rest balances cortisol, boosts collagen production, and clears inflammation.

8. Manage Stress Levels

Stress pumps cortisol through your system, increasing oil production and slowing down healing. Meditation, breathwork, exercise, nature — pick what works for you, and make it a ritual.

Additional Skincare Tips

These small tweaks can have a major impact:

9. Practice Proper Shaving Techniques

Always shave on damp, softened skin using a clean, sharp razor. Follow with a soothing, alcohol-free balm. Shaving damages your skin’s barrier — treat it with care.

10. Avoid Touching Your Face

Your hands carry bacteria. Every time you lean on your hand, pick at a blemish, or scratch your beard, you risk a breakout. Keep your hands (and your phone) clean.

When to Consult a Dermatologist

If your breakouts are severe, painful, or persistent - or if scarring is beginning - it’s worth getting expert input. Hormonal imbalances, gut issues, or fungal acne might be underlying the issue.
