The turning point of a man’s skin is in his 40s. Dryness causes various signs of aging.
The amount of moisture in men’s skin is said to be less than half that of women’s skin, and after peaking in their early 20s, the amount of moisture in men’s skin declines year by year. The amount of sebum, which increases rapidly from puberty, also tends to decline steadily from the peak in the early 30s. As a result, from the age of 40s, both moisture and sebum levels are no longer sufficient, and dryness becomes a concern. Signs of aging caused by dryness include fine lines and wrinkles, sagging, dark spots, and dullness. In addition, the skin barrier function is reduced and rough skin is more likely to occur. In order to improve and prevent such skin aging and problems, it is important to take good care of your skin on a daily basis.
Skin care for men in their 40s should start with moisturizing the skin with lotion.
The skin of men in their 40s has a high level of moisture evaporation due to a decrease in the amount of moisture and sebum. Without any care, the skin will dry out rapidly. To keep the skin well hydrated, we recommend using a lotion with a high moisturizing effect. Both of the lotion products we picked up this time have anti-aging effects, so men whose skin has begun to show signs of aging should also check them out.
Lotion recommended for men in their 40s: High-priced “VITALISM Medicinal Premium Essence Lotion 100ml Quasi-drug
Many people may have the impression that lotions designed for men “look too stimulating” or “seem to have few ingredients that are good for the skin. Vitalism has come up with a new product that overturns this image. It contains three active ingredients: heparin analogues with high moisturizing and water retention effects, dipotassium glycyrrhizate to prevent rough skin, and tranexamic acid with whitening effects, leading to healthy skin through continuous use. Although it is for men, it does not contain menthol or ethanol, and is additive-free of colorants and parabens.

Niacinamide is an ingredient that has been attracting a lot of attention over the past few years because of its high moisturizing power as well as its potential for improving wrinkles, preventing acne, and preventing blemishes. Niacinamide is often used in high-priced cosmetics due to its high raw material cost, but Skin Labo has achieved an unbeatable price of under 1,000 yen for a product that contains enough to be approved as a quasi-drug. The thick texture has mixed reviews, but it stretches well, so it is recommended to spread it thinly to reduce stickiness.

Best 3 “all-in-one” products for men in their 40s who have trouble using this and that
Many men who have started skincare after feeling their skin aging may find the steps of lotion and milky lotion too much of a hassle. For such men, we recommend an all-in-one product that combines the effects of lotion, milky lotion, and essence in a single product. They can be applied simply after washing the face, and are often less expensive than buying a full set of each, and they also take up less space.
Recommended all-in-one for people in their 40s: “L’OCCITANE Hydration Gel” in the higher price range.
This hydration gel is designed for those who feel their skin is sticky but not moisturized enough. The texture of the gel is as smooth and fresh as it looks, and it is highly moisturizing, yet it goes on smoothly once it is absorbed into the skin. Since applying too much can cause the gel to feel sticky, we recommend using a small amount and spreading it on the face.
