NIVEA Men
Face Care

Your skin places very individual demands on the texture of skin care products and the way they work. Men's skin has characteristics that differ from those of women's skin. That's why face products for men are specially designed to best meet the needs of male skin like yours. So it's really not very effective to dip into your partner's face cream – and in many cases it is even not recommended, because face cream for women is often too oily for you.

Men's skin is about 15 to 20 percent thicker than women's skin and much richer in sebaceous glands. As a result, your skin tends to develop acne and blemishes more easily. Men's skin care products for the face are created to address this. They provide your skin with moisture and contain less oil, so that your pores are not additionally burdened.

Men’s skin is very hairy. This characteristic feature is clearly visible in beard growth. With between 5,000 and 30,000 hairs, your beard area takes up about a third of the face. The hairs grow close to each other and are all surrounded by sebaceous or oil glands. Revitalising face care for men responds to the special texture of your skin and also takes into consideration the effects of shaving, which you feel every day. Men's skin contains a greater proportion of collagen, which is why it looks plump and taut for longer than women's skin. However, from the age of around 35 years, the collagen fibres start to degrade – sometimes even faster than in women – and the first wrinkles start to show on your face. Anti-ageing ingredients and face care for men that differentiates between day and night care provide relaxation and well-being for your skin. Face care for men is especially effective when it is developed according to scientific findings. NIVEA uses years of experience and current dermatology knowledge as a basis for progressive care concepts that are carefully designed to be appropriate to your needs.
