It is officially summer in Australia, marking the beginning of long days at the beach and hours of play in our oceans. Although this season is our favourite, it is the most tolling on the health and vitality of our skin. Whether you're a bloke that spends his beach day on a surfboard, or in flippers and snorkel mask, or with a cricket bat in hand, we’ve made it easy for you to care and nourish your skin after days of salt and sun. 

F*ACE skincare is packed with various ingredients that attain powerful healing properties. Let’s talk about two which are essential for after sun skin care;

Kakadu Plum - Native to Australia it is a superfood that boasts the highest level of vitamin C of any food in the world. Vitamin C protects skin cells from UV exposure and lightens sun spots which evens out skin tone.

Aloe Vera - A medicinal plant which heals and soothes sunburns, whilst also bringing moisture back to dry skin. This plant enhances the radiance of skin after it has been exposed to all the elements of summer! 

We’ve got you this summer. Enjoy it with care, with F*ACE.

…"knowing I am using the right products on my skin to keep it looking clean and fresh everyday makes me feel good.

 Thanks F*ACE for Men for the 360Fly - best belated Christmas present ever.  I am headed to Byron for a few weeks with my dad and mates after New Year’s. I can’t wait to try it out.”

 To start the new year right and feel good about your skin, pick up your F*ACE for Men Skincare from Chemist Warehouse. 

We get it: just you and boys. A whole 48 hours with no hair straighteners, no Bachelor/ette, no chores and no tact. Whether you’re idea of the ultimate boys weekend involves The Gold Coast, paintball and hard core clubs, or your style is more comby, surfboards and the open road; pack your skincare so you don’t come home looking like the last man standing in an action film.  

Your man-cation toiletry bag can be your perfect wing man. With just a tooth brush, toothpaste, razor, Facewash and Moisturiser, you can look the goods and still get your bloke on. Even better you can cover off all the essentials in the shower and the lads won’t need to know. It takes 2 minutes to wash your face and brush your teeth in the shower. Then apply your moisturiser when you get out. It will rehydrate your skin and get rid of the dirt and grit you pick up on your travels.

Best of all, you’ll return home after the weekend clean and fresh and what happened on tour will stay on tour.

Did you know that your skin absorbs in excess of 60% of what you rub on it? Most skincare products have petro-chemicals, acids and other nasties. Unless you’re The Joker, why would you want to rub toxins on your face?

If you want your skin to look its best – look out for products which have natural ingredients. As a general rule; if it sounds like you could eat it, it will go fine on your face. We like products like Kakadu Plum; Aloe Vera and Honey.

They sound good right? Here’s what they do for you:

Kakadu Plum – It is the Australian superfood which can save your skin. It is packed with anti-oxidants to repair the skin.

Honey – The nectar of the bees is famous for moisturizing the skin and turning tired party-hardened skin into baby fresh softness.

Aloe Vera – Aloe has been around for thousands of years (think pyramids, Antony and the ancient Egyptians) and it’s known for smoothing tired skin and keeping it clean.

So now you know.

The warm weather is here and we’re hitting the gym hard. For some of our mates, it is all about getting massive. For others, it’s about doing just enough to look good for the girl. While our motives might be different, the physical and mental benefits of the gym are the same – we look good and we feel good.  

After you have sweated buckets; there is definitely nothing better than hitting the showers. It feels good to sooth the muscles and wash away the pong. But the post gym hot shower can actually rob your skin of the stuff that keeps it looking good.   

So avoid having a long hot shower – high temperatures will have a negative effect on your skin. You have been running hot during your work out and a hot shower will continue to dehydrate you. Jump in and wash the sweat off, then get out.

Get some fluids into you and replace the electrolytes you have lost. Importantly now is also the time to rehydrate your skin. Apply your moisturiser after the shower to make your skin feel brand new.

Look good, feel good, get out there and crush it.
