Double cleansing. First, use an oil-based cleanser to remove sunscreen, makeup, and pollutants. Follow with a gentle water-based cleanser to clean the skin without stripping it, ensuring treatments can penetrate effectively.

Yes. The eye area is delicate for everyone. Men should use an eye cream with peptides or caffeine to address puffiness, dark circles, and fine lines.

Oily skin may show signs of aging slightly later because natural oils provide some plumping effect. However, it is not immune to wrinkles, especially those caused by sun damage and expression lines.

Absolutely. Sun protection remains the most critical step. UV radiation continues to break down collagen and can worsen the appearance of age spots and wrinkles. A daily broad-spectrum SPF 30+ is non-negotiable.
