Did you all catch the Superbowl ad for Dove Men + Care?  The commercial features a man’s life playing out in 45 seconds to the tune of the William Tell Overture. Through his life experiences, the man becomes comfortable enough with himself  to face any challenge. The basic premise is that once men become comfortable with who they are, they need to become comfortable in their own skin.

Dove has finally designed a product for that purpose. Dove Men + Care is the brand’s first-ever product line created specifically for men.

I have used Dove products for years because I like for my skin to feel soft and smell nice. I work a comfortable job now, but when I was in my early twenties I worked in landscaping. Even back then I realized that time spent sweating in the hot sun caused dry skin and eventual permanent damage.

Just because a man works hard he doesn’t need to have leathery skin and smell like a pine tree. The secret to smooth, soft skin is moisture. Dove brand cleansers have been embraced for many years due to their exceptional moisturizing properties. With this new product, all men can feel comfortable using a body wash and bar heralded for its moisturizing effect.

I have never understood the popular consensus that Mens’ products should be harsh and rugged. Men need refreshing, moisture-rich cleansers just a much as women. Even young men and teenagers should be concerned about using a moisturizing and nonirritating body wash to prevent their skin from aging too quickly. Dove MEN+CARE is dermatologist recommended and clinically proven to fight skin dryness without irritation or tightness.

Dove is offering a printable coupon to save $1.00 on any one (1) Body and Face Wash OR Body and Face Bar OR Shower Tool.

Most guys do not like to talk about moisturizer. For some reason, it is considered “unmanly” to use a product that rejuvenates the skin and prevents wrinkles. I love a good moisturizer, even though I am hesitant to put most lotions on my face. I have tried facial moisturizers in the past, but I usually end up with pimples after a few applications..yuck! Fortunately, I have found Skin MD Natural!

For the last week, I have been using Skin MD Natural Shielding lotion on my face every day after my shower. I am willing to do this because it does not feel oily on my skin. It is very light and makes my skin feel smooth and supple within minutes of application. The effect endures all day and has resulted in my face feeling refreshed. Skin MD has not caused a single zit, either!

Anyone concerned about impeding the onset of wrinkles should be using a good moisturizer. Even men and women in their early 20s can benefit greatly from keeping the moisture in their skin.  After all, it is better to start young and prevent wrinkles than to try to reduce them after they develop. The best way to stop wrinkles before they start is with a shielding lotion.

Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion does more than hydrate the skin. It also provides a thin protective barrier that locks in moisture and keeps out contaminants. One of the many causes of skin ageing is  air and water pollution. Skin MD blocks these pollutants out with natural ingredients such as Aloe Vera, Chamomile, and Vitamin E.

I recently read an article in Maxim Magazine comparing the human face to a baseball glove. It looks great when it is new, but after a few years of getting wet and being exposed to sunlight it will crack and wrinkle. This is why we must moisturize after every shower if we want to look our best.

Skin MD Natural is scent free, so it will not clash with whatever cologne or body spray I am wearing. It also has a proprietary new ingredient that has been proven to retain moisture 6 times better than glycerin. In addition, Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion contains natural antimicrobial agents to reduce bacteria on the skin. Lastly, this product shields the face, hands, and body from harmful pollutants in the environment. It is even sold with SPF15 to help prevent damage from the sun!

Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion is a much better choice for treating dry skin than a traditional moisturizing cream or lotion. It is a nourishing forcefield that provides constant protection for our faces and bodies.  This natural shielding lotion can be purchased at many fine stores or from the Skin MD website. The price is $18 for a 4oz bottle (1-2 month supply with daily use). The Skin MD website is offering several Christmas specials that include discounted prices and free shipping for purchasing multiple bottles.
