Solving the 3 major problems of men's skin care in summer! Introducing items that have actually been tried and tested!

In this issue, we focus on men’s skin care problems that are common during the hot summer season. We introduce the items that our editorial staff, who is in his early twenties and tries out all kinds of skincare products on a daily basis, has actually tried and found to be good!

Summer skincare concerns (1) “I’m worried about stickiness after skincare…

As the sebum secretion becomes excessive in summer, I am bothered by the stickiness after skincare, which causes me stress. Especially after taking a bath, the body temperature is high and sweat is difficult to remove, which increases the discomfort of sticky skin care. To solve this problem, I visited the cosmetics section of a department store and consulted with a beauty advisor of each brand, who advised me to change the milky lotion I use to moisturize my skin at the end of my skincare routine.

A. Use a refreshing emulsion! This is the one I tried and liked ” IPSA ME 1

IPSA’s ME series has variations from 1 to 8, so you can choose the emulsion that best suits your skin. The higher the number, the thicker the texture, so “ME 1” and “ME 2” are recommended for oily-skinned men who are concerned about stickiness. Also, if you go to a store, they offer a skin diagnosis service and suggest the best skincare products for you, so if you are interested, please try it. When I visited the Isetan Shinjuku store, I expected to see only female customers, but surprisingly there were many couples and men visiting the store alone, so I was able to get a skin diagnosis without worrying about what others might think.

I like IPSA ME 1 because the texture is quite refreshing and moisturizes like a lotion. I personally recommend using the brand’s cleaning cotton. The surface of the cotton is made of silk, which is gentle and smooth to the skin, so it is pleasant to use and does not feel sticky at all after use. The price is 440 yen (including tax) as of July 2023, even though it is made of high-class silk, which makes it easy to buy!

Summer skincare concern #2: “I’m worried about my skin shining…” [/pee_bubble

On summer days when I am often outside, such as around exhibitions, location shoots, and store interviews, my face becomes especially shiny. I was looking for a way to get rid of this problem, and I came across… …

A. You can use sebum-absorbing powder! I tried this “Innisfree No Sebum Mineral Powder N” and was very happy with it.

Sebum is the cause of facial shine. Therefore, to prevent shine, it is a good idea to cover the face with a powder that absorbs sebum. Men should aim for loose powder type products that give the skin a translucent look and make it look like bare skin. Although I have tried all kinds of skincare products, I have no experience with men’s makeup and have no habit of wearing powder on my face, so I first tried a petit-price product that is easy on the wallet even if it fails. The one I liked there is Innisfree’s ” No-Sevum Mineral Powder N “.

This item is one of the most popular petit-price cosmetics in Korea, with a total of over 55 million units sold. It is suitable for normal, oily, and combination skin. As an example, I have combination skin, and just by lightly applying the product, I was able to get a comfortable finish and keep my skin from looking shiny. I can confidently recommend this item as it was introduced byinfluencer Eito Miyanaga when I interviewed him on YOUTUBE! The small size makes it easy to carry around.

Summer skincare concerns (3) “Skincare is too much trouble in the first place…”

I always start with washing my face, followed by an introductory solution, toner, essence, and finally milky lotion. …… I am always thinking, “I know it’s necessary, but it’s such a hassle to go through all these steps! I always take care of my skin while thinking, “I know it’s necessary, but it’s a lot of steps and a hassle! More to the point, I have to remove the cap from the container, blend the lotion into my hands and cotton pads, and ……. Although each process takes only a few seconds, I am sure that I am not the only one who feels that the accumulation of these steps consumes a considerable amount of time and effort. What is a dream-like item that can eliminate all such hassles at once?

A. Let’s rely on a magical time-saving item! This is the one I am glad I used, “MEGLY.

MEGLY” is a new skincare item that has become the talk of the town because it requires only 8 seconds to apply a mist with one hand. The product delivers a lotion rich in beauty essence ingredients to the skin using a carbonic acid mist, so the process of applying an introductory solution, lotion, and beauty essence can be completed with just one bottle. The carbonic acid mist feels cool and pleasant, which is why there has been a rapid increase in the number of users in our editorial department since the summer season began!

The more MEGLY has helped me shorten my skincare routine, the more I’ve been able to focus on quality. Specifically, since MEGLY contains beauty ingredients, I quit using lotion and serum and started combining them with high-end depakos emulsions such as IPSA, which I mentioned in the section above. Thanks to this combination technique, my skin tone is so good that people around me ask me, “Which esthetician do you go to? I personally think that MEGLY is the best skincare company in 2023 and 2024! Personally, I feel that the price of MEGLY is high, as of July 2023, the subscription kit costs 30,000 yen (including tax), but I felt that it is well worth it. By the way, you can quit the subscriber contract at any time with no limit on the number of times you …
