Top Tips for Dad to Take Care of Skin

July 4, 2019 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Traditionally, men have kept things simple when it comes to skin care. In recent times, however, there has been a definite shift in the way men have tended to and looked after themselves in this instance. Today, more men than ever before have started delving deeper in the world of skin care in a bid to look younger, fresher, and healthier. They are using all sorts of lotions and potions, and some are even seeing the dermatologist regularly in order to stay on top of their skin care game.

As a busy working dad, you might not have the time to be doing all of this to care for your skin. You want the young, fresh, and healthy complexion, without having to devote too much of your time and effort to it. Fortunately, there are ways to do just that.

Here are some top tips for all you fathers out there who are determined to take better care of your skin:

Study product labels closely

A simple yet effective change you can make to your skin care regime to study product labels far more closely than you usually do. By doing so, you will be a lot more likely to choose and then use the products that suit your skin type. This is essential, as using something that aggravates your skin will only make it look damaged, blotchy, and unhealthy.

You have to read the labels and choose the right products for you based off of what you see. How do you do this, though, when you have absolutely no background in beauty and grooming and, as a result, don’t know what to look out for? Depending on your skin type, a few key words you need to keep an eye out for include:

If you have acne-prone skin: Keep on the lookout for products that are ‘oil free’ and ‘non-comedogenic.’
If you have sensitive skin: Look for products that are labeled as being ‘fragrance-free’ (not ‘unscented’).
If you have wrinkles: Give precedent to products packed with Vitamin C, such as Retinol serum, as they help to brighten skin tone, increase firmness, and create a youthful glow.

Wash your face every day

This should be a no-brainer but, every now and again, life will get in the way, and you will forget to wash your face. No matter how difficult the kids are being in the morning or late you are for work, however, you have to remember to give your face a wash and a scrub. When you do, try to avoid regular soap and boiling hot water as this will just end up drying and damaging your skin. Instead, use a mild cleanser and lukewarm water.

Improve your shaving technique

Your shaving technique could be what is holding you back from achieving perfectly fresh, youthful, and healthy looking skin.

In this instance, it’s all about the razor that you use. Sometimes, multi-blade razors will work almost too well and give you razor bumps and burns. If this is the case for you, you should have no qualms in switching to a single razor. Be sure to shave in the direction of your hair growth, too, in order to avoid irritation.

Being a dad doesn’t mean you’re no longer allowed to look after your skin. Take the above advice and set about the task of improving your skin care regime today!

Care For Your Skin The Right Way With Cetaphil

August 4, 2017 by dadofdivas 1 Comment

I tend to have skin that is very dry. This is especially been true on my left hand, which was the hand that had third-degree Burns back in 2013. All this being said, I continue to look for great products that can moisturize my skin without clogging pores or doing any other damage.

Cetaphil has been a product that has been recommended to me by dermatologist that I have seen in regards to my hand in the past but I was unaware of all of the products that they offered until recently. I had the opportunity to try out a number of the Cetaphil products and was very surprised, in a good way, at the array, breadth and depth of the products that they have for consumers. So whether you have dry skin, oily skin or something in between Cetaphil has a little bit of everything that can handle your skin issues.

I have a family member who deals with rosacea which is a skin condition that makes your skin have red blotches on it and Cetaphil even has products to assist these individuals with their skin as well. From face washes to moisturizing creams Cetaphil has a little bit of everything.

Using the products myself, I was impressed with the quality and quantity that you receive. I shared some of the products that were sent to me to family and friends and they all echoed my same thoughts.

If you are like me and have skin concerns and are looking for strong products that really work Cetaphil is definitely one you should have on your list.

Tips to Protect Your Kids Skin!

May 22, 2017 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

With the summer season upon us, it’s more important than ever to take protective measures to protect your child’s skin. Whether you’re spending the day lounging at the pool, hitting the beach, or if your kiddos are just outside getting some fresh air, protecting their skin is a must.

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) reports that just a few serious sunburns can increase your child’s chance of developing skin cancer later in life and that sun damage can occur on unprotected skin with as little as 15 minutes of sun exposure. Additionally, it can take up to 12 hours for a sunburn to become visible.

To help you learn the most effective ways to protect your kids skin from the sun this summer in addition to protecting to and tending to your own, we have compiled a list of our best tips. Keep reading to learn how to save your children’s skin from damage without having to sacrifice their time to have fun in the sun!

Apply sunscreen at least 30 minutes prior to exposure – it’s important to apply sunscreen prior to going outside to ensure that it is fully effective by the time your kids are soaking up the sun. Always use a variety that has a sun protection factor (SPF) of 15 or higher and don’t forget to reapply every two to three hours as well as after swimming or excessive sweating.

Don’t miss any spots – part of ensuring that you are protecting your child from attaining a burn is to make sure you don’t miss any spots when applying their sunscreen. Some trickier spots to remember are the tops of your kiddo’s feet, the part of their hair where their scalp is exposed, their ears, and the back of their neck. Also be sure to protect their lips from the sun by applying a lip balm with SPF.

Be mindful of medications – many prescribed medications that children may be on could increase your little one’s sensitivity to the sun. Be sure to check the labels and warnings on all of their prescription antibiotics and medications or consult their doctor about sun exposure while on the meds. Acne medication most frequently prompts this risk, so keep that in mind for tweens and teens!

Cover up – especially when it comes to little ones, the more covered up they are the easier it will be for you to protect their skin. While it can be tough to cover them too much in the summer heat, use items like rash guards (that include SPF) and hats to ensure that they are at minimal risk. Also always bring an umbrella with you to the beach so there’s a shady spot to allow everyone to catch a sun break from time to time.

Make applying sunscreen fun – perhaps it isn’t the most enticing activity in the world for kids, but picking the right sunscreens can make it more of an appealing task for kiddos to keep up on their lotion application. For instance, pick a lotion with a fun scent or that has a favorite character on the bottle to keep your kids interested. Make applying sunscreen exciting for them! Also remember to choose a sunscreen that is fast-drying and easy to rub in to make applications quicker and easier.

This summer, making protecting the skin of your little ones from the sun a priority doesn’t need to be a drag. Follow the tips above for easy applications and lessen the chances for damaging burns. Your kids will enjoy their time in the sun without the uncomfortable and worrisome burns afterwards. We call that a win-win!

It’s Time For Men to Take Control Of Their Skincare!

April 29, 2015 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

I never really took much time to be concerned with my own skincare in the past. However, as I get older I am finding that my skin is changing too. The issue with this is that I am finding that it is getting quite a bit oilier than it has been since I was a teenager – talk about frustrating! This being said I have been trying to find a good array of products that can keep my skin clean and change my skincare routine, especially for my face.

I had never heard about Axiom for Men but in reading about the company I was impressed with the array of products that were made to offer complete protection for your skin. The full array of skincare products that they have developed and tested are made to offer assistance with hair removal, cleansing, moisturizing, and skin-tone balancing. Best of all though is that they have worked with experts to make sure that products are specifically created for men’s skin.

The skincare products contain natural ingredients and you can tell that the company has been and continues to listen to its’ customers, men, to continue tweaking and changing their products to make them better and to make them even more effective.

I was able to try out the Axiom for Men Daily Essentials Kit which contained everything that I needed to keep my skin healthy and fit. It contained the Face & Body Shave Cream, Pearlized Cleansing Gel and Daily Restorative Moisturizer. I found that by using this you can easily create a daily routine. The products were creamy, not greasy and I found that after using these three products over the past week that my skin that had been feeling very oily and dull looking was starting to feel less so. I loved how well the three of these worked well together and you really do not need to to use much of the three for each use so I could tell that it would last for quite a while too.

If you are having similar issues like I have been lately with your skin changing, Axiom definitely can help. Even if you are still young, don’t wait as long as I have to really start a routine to take care of your skin. Your skin takes a beating every day so using products like this simply makes sense and does not take as long as I had thought at first.

If you have never heard of Axiom for Men skincare products you should check it out for yourself!

Common Kid Skin Problems & When To Worry #dadchat

July 24, 2014 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Common Kid Skin Problems & When To Worry

Our skin is our biggest organ. So when there is something wrong in our body, our skin will be one of the first signs of distress. This is especially important with children, particularly when they’re too young to communicate. Rather than going into panicked parent mode over every blemish, know what to look for and when to seek help.

Eczema: One of the most common child skin ailments is eczema. This often inflicts infants and toddlers who have weaker immune systems. Characteristics include itchy, flaky patches of skin, often appearing on the face. Sometimes this can occur due to a change in diet, commonly caused by dairy, and may be influenced by the mother’s diet if she is breastfeeding. Try changing their diet and applying topical lotions and ointments. If the problem persists, consult your doctor.

Freckles & Sunburn: Fair-skinned children are extremely sensitive to sunlight and tend to burn and freckle easily. With that said, anyone is capable of having freckles and burning, so everyone (parents included) should wear sunscreen. People who experience excessive and repetitive sunburns are more susceptible to skin cancer. Even if completely treated, you are more likely to suffer from skin cancer on multiple occasions once you have had it, so be sure to wear broad spectrum sunscreen any time you will spend prolonged periods of time outdoors. Don’t forget to reapply at least every two hours, or every hour if you’re in water. Cloudy days are just as likely to cause damage.

Mole: Moles are caused by a cluster of melanin and are usually genetic. Typically, they’re only problematic if the mole is raised and rubbing against clothing. Many moles are often flat and harmless but you should always keep an eye out when new moles form or if existing moles change shape. It could be a sign of melanoma. If you see any marks that concern you, contact your doctor promptly.

Red Mole: Red moles are also known as cherry angiomas and contain blood vessels which cause the red coloring. Some children are born with them and they often appear on their trunk section. Similar to standard moles, they are usually painless and shouldn’t cause any concern unless they change shape. You can treat or remove the appearance of red moles on skin for cosmetic purposes if desired.

Hives: Hives often occur due to an allergic reaction. The spots are itchy and characterized by a patchy pink or red tone then can effect small areas or cluster into larger areas. Doctors will typically prescribe antihistamines but may also prescribe corticosteroids if the situation calls for them. The allergen could be digested, contact, or airborne so it is recommended to consult a specialist for an allergy panel so the culprit can be avoided.

Milk Bumps: Also known as milk pimples, milk rash, and baby acne, these small white bumps are actually called milia. The cysts often appear around the nose and are caused by clogged pores, which is common in newborns since their pores haven’t opened up yet. They typically go away on their own within a couple weeks and there is no need for concern. On older children, it may occur from damaged skin ducts caused by burning or blistering.

Many skin conditions are harmless, while others may be a warning sign to a bigger problem. No matter the condition, if you have concerns, just contact your physician. It is always best to be certain and relieve any worries you may have.

Nivea for Men Holiday #Giveaway

December 19, 2012 by dadofdivas 70 Comments

skincare, dad of divas, dadofdivas.com

I and the type of person that likes to take care of my skin, but living in Michigan does not always allow for this. With the colder, drier Winters, I find that my skin becomes very dry and cracked, especially my hands. On top of this other parts of my skin also is affected. Even at other times of the year though I know that it is important to protect our largest organ which is our skin. I try and take care of my own and also try and model this for my own kids. NIVEA for Men has a large number of products that work well to help men to take care of their skin. I was lucky enough to be able to try a few of these and after doing so I was quite impressed. The products work well and have a smell that is not too feminine. The products also do not leave a large oily residue behind which is something that I’m always looking for when it comes to skin care. The other thing that I really enjoyed about this line of products is that the company as a whole does a great job at aligning their products with the tasks that a man completes each day. What I mean by this is that they have aftershave lotion that does not burn but moisturizes the skin and they have a face wash that actually deep cleans and leaves your face feeling clean and refreshed along with so many other products.

All-in-all, I was very impressed with this line of products and believe that you will be also.

Guys, Did You Know? – Tips from @DermDoc & @DoveMenCare

September 29, 2011 by dadofdivas 54 Comments

The Absolute Essentials

By Dr. Jeffrey Benabio

Men’s skincare is a trending topic. Facebook and Twitter have become great forums for skincare discussion (I’m a regular on Twitter @DermDoc), where guys can crowd-source recommendations and learn about products designed for them. For example, check out @DoveMenCare where conversations range from how family vacations to playing a favorite sport can take a toll on your skin. With a plethora of new men’s products on the market, it’s important to be informed.

Lather, rinse, simplify! Since some men don’t like using a loofah in the shower, it’s important to simplify the body washing process with a product that lathers easily, like Dove Men+Care Clean Comfort Body and Face Wash. The products are formulated using ultra-light micromoisture technology, a unique gel technology that activates on skin during lather to guard against discomfort.
Don’t forget your feet. Feet are the most ignored body part in the shower, which can lead to Athlete’s Foot or staph. Prevention can be as easy as rubbing hand sanitizer on feet (especially before hitting a shower at your gym), which will kill off infections. (It’s important to rub in sanitizer for at least sixty seconds or until all the alcohol has fully evaporated for it to really work!)
It’s not the socks! Men often attribute dry skin on their feet to their socks. Since feet skin is sensitive and prone to dryness, it’s important to use a personal wash that thoroughly cleanses skin while fighting dryness, like Dove Men+Care Body and Face Bar, which contains Dove’s signature ¼ moisturizing cream.
Locker room care. After sweating and getting tossed around on the field, sports equipment like football helmets will get dirty, which can lead to folliculitis or staph infections. To avoid infection, equipment should be cleaned with rubbing alcohol, a locker staple. And to minimize the items in your gym bag, it’s helpful to use products that serve multiple purposes, like Dove Men+Care Body and Face Wash, the #1 dermatologist recommended brand.
The absolute essentials. Most men don’t want to spend significant time perfecting their grooming routine; these are the essential products for every guy, in order of importance – antiperspirant/deodorant, shampoo, body wash. You need a moisturizer in the winter, and a sunscreen in the summer. (And all can be found at the local drug store.)

Giveaway – Facelube Products Place Men’s Skin On The Fast Track (@kmrpr)

August 31, 2011 by dadofdivas

Test Drive The New High Performance Men’s Skin Care Line

WWW.FACELUBE.COM

Even though much ado has been made about “metrosexuals” and the rise of male plastic surgery, when it comes to an everyday skin care regimen, for the most part, “men are from Mars and women are from Venus.” The average man does not want or need a pile of products to reap the benefits of a properly maintained masculine face. FaceLube’s high performance 3 step system includes a Cleaner, Treatment and Protectant. It’s simple and precise – bing, bam, boom, am/pm and you’re done! Because men and women age differently, men have different needs and preferences than women. FaceLube® gets the critical fact that for men, proper face care is not just about looking young – it’s about looking good and staying on the fast track.

FACELUBE® GERMANY: KEEP IT CLEAN, LUBRICATED AND PROTECTED

STEP 1 ANTI-AGING CLEANER (3.4 OZ) MADE IN GERMANY. MSRP $25.00

Think about the finish on your car. If you keep it free of old build-up it will look good year

after year. And when you pick the right cleaner, you won’t strip it so much that you damage the clear coat finish. You wouldn’t use a tire cleaner on your fine leather seats, think twice before using soap or all-purpose body wash all over the most delicate part of a man’s face.

This anti-aging cleaner is a powerhouse of concentrated natural organic plant derived complex and high tech manufacturing protocols. It offers deep, effective and gentle cleaning of surface oils, impurities and dirt and helps to restore perfect moisture, balance and tone and is an integral part of proper men’s grooming regimen. Free from controversial chemicals like Sodium Lauryl Sulfate

WHY IT WORKS:

A man’s face builds up dirt, grime and dead cells. The Cleaner breaks up embedded dirt, grime and thick skin debris. It soothes, nourishes, tightens and conditions. Masculine facial skin has very different needs and texture than his hair and the rest of his body parts. Common soaps strip his face of natural moisture, leaving it dry and prone to wrinkles.

HOW TO USE: 3.4 oz / 100 ml. Concentrated.

About dime size per use, twice daily am/pm. For all skin types.

STEP 2 TREATMENT (1.5 OZ): MSRP $105.00

Treatment is like a high-end synthetic fluid for your car. Think about a car just after an automatic transmission fluid exchange. The cleaner helped to loosen the dirt and grime that built-up in the torque converter, and flushed them out along with all that oxidized used fluid. Now that the transmission is clean, you’d want to top it off with fresh new fluid – the basic nutrient that keeps your transmission shifting in high gear.

The FaceLube® Treatment is a Hi-Potency Concentrated Ultra Super Luxe Caviar Complex and Natural Bio-Peptides that work to activate cell metabolism, begin repairs on past damage from environmental assaults and stress to help revitalize and firm tired skin and defend against further damage.

WHY IT WORKS: Once a man has gotten rid of the “gunk” on his face through cleansing, the face needs nutrition. The Treatment minimizes fine lines and wrinkles by helping to restore the skin’s natural balance, rebuild collagen and elasticity, repair past damage and strengthen it against further environmental and free radical assaults.

WHAT’S IN IT & WHY: DNA-Marine/Caviar Extract – Anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, revitalizing, firming and regenerating, renews skin elasticity. It’s the ultimate deep penetrating nutrient for younger looking skin.

HOW TO USE: 1.5 fl. oz / 45 ml. Highly Concentrated. About pea size per use, twice daily AM/PM. For all skin types.

STEP 3 PROTECTANT (1.5 OZ): MSRP $115.00

Think of Protectant like a high-performance additive package, or booster for your car’s engine that works in conjunction with the fresh new motor oil that went into your car after an engine flush. The FaceLube® Protectant is cutting edge anti-aging technology that minimizes wrinkles, firms, strengthens skin structure, protects collagen and elastin fibers. Moisture enriched, ultra smooth, non-oily, protects against premature aging. Healing, soothing, and nourishing.

WHY IT WORKS: The Protectant works in conjunction with Treatment. The active ingredients in the Protectant are complementary to the Treatment. The Protectant helps further strengthen the skin’s inner structure and seals in moisture.

WHAT’S IN IT & WHY: Matrixyl 3000® – Collagen production, anti-wrinkle, firms and lifts skin. Venuceane® – Deep sea extract, anti-aging, anti-oxidant, hydrating, prevents signs of photo-aging. Ocean Gold® – Natural mineral nutrient, protects collagen, firms, strengthens, anti-oxidant. Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract – Natural moisturizer promotes healing, highly hydrating, high in potassium, optimizes and reinforces collagen synthesis and moisture absorption. Caffeine – firming, detoxifying. Allantoin – Heals, protects, softens, conditions.

HOW TO USE: 1.5 fl. oz / 45 ml. Highly Concentrated. About pea size per use, twice daily AM/PM. For all skin types

FACELUBE® GERMANY products can be purchased individually or as a three step set for optimal results. FaceLube® is having a “Model Year End Sale” by offering these products at a special rate.For a limited time, men can road test the all-new 2012 FaceLube® Germany 3 step kit for $125.00 instead of the regular sticker price of $245.00. It’s like getting a BMW for the price of a Hyundai.

FaceLube® uses natural ingredients in its formulations. FaceLube’s primary focus is anti-aging. They combine natural ingredients such as super botanicals (fruits and plants that have strong anti-aging properties) and the latest science-based anti-aging active ingredients to achieve sustainable results. FaceLube® uses natural alternatives to controversial chemicals like oxybenzone and sulfates. They do not test their products on animals.

WHY DOESN’T FACELUBE® INCORPATE AN SPF IN ITS PRODUCTS?

Modern chemicals used to infuse skin care products with SPF properties are irritants and are often not compatible with the most advanced and effective anti-aging ingredients. However, FaceLube® feels that to include it in their products would be irresponsible, because sunscreen must be applied continuously to provide the most effective protection. Skin care products with light SPF properties meant for single AM application give consumers the erroneous impression that it only needs to be applied once a day for full day protection.Instead, FaceLube® offers a separate natural Anti-Aging Sunscreen with broad spectrum protection.

MEN MAY BE MESSY BUT FACELUBE® ISN’T

The sealed pump bottles are easy to use. There are no messy tubes, jars, or droppers to deal with. The FaceLube® men’s skin care kit doesn’t oxidize and collect germs like open containers and won’t make a mess in your sink or on floors even if you knocked it over.

MY SOAP HAS MOISTURIZERS IN IT, WHY USE ANYTHING ELSE?

The short answer – so does your dishwashing liquid, but you wouldn’t use that on your face. Think about it – if that were enough, women would stop using any skin care and anti-aging products, too.

FaceLube® has a total of five three-step systems ranging from $125- $285.00. In addition, they also offer other “optional equipment” including:

Harem® Cologne
His and Hers ‘Man’s Man’ and ‘Goddess’ Mug Set
Anti-Aging Sunscreen
Ultra Smooth Protectant
Limited Edition Humidor Boxes

THE WOMAN BEHIND FACELUBE®: CANDACE CHEN

FaceLube was founded by Candace Chen, as the result of a personal passion in couture and beauty to explore possibilities in cutting edge cosmeceuticals and offer innovative marketing solutions to the beauty industry.

Ms. Chen comes from a unique background of more than 18 years in the automotive industry, as a Los Angeles based manufacturer and distributor of automotive service equipment and specialty products, whose clients include many of the top names in the automotive industry in the US and abroad.

For more than 15 years, Ms. Chen has been a small business advocate, whose work with the international trade community has earned her numerous honors, respect and admiration among her private sector and government colleagues. Although she prefers to keep a low profile, she is often consulted by local press and is a sought after speaker at trade related events. She is particularly passionate about leveling the playing field and creating export opportunities in overseas markets for American products, especially those made by small American manufacturers.

Among her many honors, she serves as an appointed trade policy advisor on SMEs (Small & Medium Sized Enterprises) to two Cabinet level government officials – the U.S. Secretary of Commerce and the U.S. Trade Representative. Ms. Chen was first appointed under the Clinton Administration, re-appointed under the Bush Administration, and is honored to continue her service in the Obama Administration. She is the Chairwoman Emeritus of the Southern California Regional District Export Council, a local level U.S. Department of Commerce advisory committee, whose members are prominent local business executives dedicated to helping local communities create jobs and thrive through international trade and exports.

Ms. Chen is a Next Generation member of the Pacific Council on International Policy, the western affiliate of the Council on Foreign Relations, a prestigious, non-partisan foreign policy membership organization and think tank based in New York. Ms. Chen has been formally recognized by her friends and colleagues in the International Trade Administration and the Commercial Service with an Award from the U.S. Department of Commerce for Achievement in Trade.
