Why Men Need Specialised Skincare
Men’s skin is fundamentally different from women’s—it’s approximately 25% thicker, produces more sebum, and faces daily micro-trauma from shaving. Obagi has developed targeted solutions that address these unique needs.
Key Differences in Men’s Skin
- Thicker dermis – More collagen but still vulnerable to UV damage
- Higher sebum production – Oilier skin prone to congestion
- Shaving irritation – Regular micro-trauma causing sensitivity and razor burn
- Larger pores – More visible pores requiring targeted treatment
- Later signs of ageing – But when they appear, they tend to be more severe

For Active Lifestyles
Men who exercise regularly or work outdoors need extra protection:
- Post-workout cleansing to prevent breakouts from sweat and bacteria
- Water-resistant SPF for outdoor activities
- Antioxidant serums to combat environmental stress and free radical damage
Anti-Ageing for Men
Men benefit significantly from retinol and vitamin C in their routine. These ingredients help with:
- Fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and forehead
- Uneven skin tone from sun damage
- Loss of firmness and skin elasticity
