Strutting around with sweat and grime can seem macho — until your skin turns into a mess of warts and rashes.

Unlike the ladies, we men lack the patience to pamper our skin. But we can and need to do the minimum.

In this short post, I want to give you a stupendously simple no-frill skin routine:

1. Wash your face with cold water and a mild face wash at least twice a day.
2. Don’t scour your face with a sand-paper of a towel — gently pat dry it with a cotton T-shirt.
3. Then, apply a thin layer of a mild moisturizer — Johnson’s baby lotion is my go-to. Won’t hurt to slather some on your arms and neck as well.
4. If you have tattoos and/or live where the sun is harsh, generously use sunscreen (preferably SPF 50 or above).
5. Bonus: Trim the hedges — nothing makes your nether regions a sordid mess than a clump of sweat-soaking hair.

Notice my emphasis on mild — this is because most fancy products are hyper-chemical B.S.

Simple is good — be it for your skin or your life.
