The dog days of summer calls for restocking on our soaps, including face cleansers. After all, every great grooming regimen begins with a solid face wash, one that cleanses our skin, and clears our pores so that our serums and moisturizers can do their jobs properly. It’s especially important for guys who lead an active lifestyle. While a cardio workout boosts our skin’s blood circulation and can promote collagen production, all that sweating can leave our mugs prone to breakouts and irritation.
“You need to use a face wash morning and night and anytime after a heavy workout to avoid bacteria and sebum from accumulating,” Dr. Anthony Rossi, a dermatologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City, tells Men’s Health.
