You are a tough guy but you are sensitive!!

Hi and very good evening to all..Tonight Mama would like to share with you about the differences in our skin between men and women.Therefore,Mama wants all of you read first about the info and try to understand about our own skin..Hehehe

Sometimes we might see that men who have muscles must be very tough.However, for your information,their skin is not as tough as their body is. Their skin is much more sensitive than women's skin.
The differences between men and women are manifold and the make-up of our skin is among them. There are several key variations between the skin of men and women, although of course these can vary from individual to individual depending on ethnic background, race, and heredity.

Therefore,Mama would like to state here the differences of men and women's skin. The differences are:

1)Smaller sebaceous glands : Male skin has smaller sebaceous (oil) glands. The sebaceous glands are microscopic glands in the skin that secrete an oily substance called sebum, to lubricate the skin and hair. Absorption of active ingredients in skin care products is primarily through these glands, which means that male skin absorbs moisturiser and other skin care products at lesser rate. This should be a consideration when choosing skin care products.

2)More oil : Despite the smaller sebaceous glands, a man's skin can actually be more oily than a woman's. This is due to the male hormone testosterone, which is responsible for the skin generating a higher amount of oil sebum. As a result, men's skin may naturally age better but will also be more susceptible to adult acne. This is another factor that should be taken into account when choosing skin care products. Washing in the morning and at night is the most effective way to manage oily skin, especially on the face. Look for a gentle cleanser as soaps can make the skin produce more oil. Products which contain acids such as salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide can help reduce oiliness. When washing, never use hot water as it can aggravate the skin. Both men and women's skin contain proteins and fats that form a protective barrier and lock in moisture. Long showers or baths in hot water (as well as extreme weather and exposure to air conditioning or heaters) strip our skin of this natural protection.

3)Thicker skin: A man's skin is thicker than a woman's, making men less susceptible to the damaging effects of sun's UVA rays. This, along with men's oilier skin which provides more protection is another reason why men seem to age slower than women.

Now I believe that every one has understood why I say that men's skin is more sensitive than women. Therefore I suggest to all men out there if you want to buy some beauty products for your skin,please make sure that your skin is suitable with the product. If God's willing, I am going to give you some tips of how to choose the beauty products for your skin especially for men.Just don't miss reading my blog and I would always give you some beneficial information about your sex,life and beauty..Muahhhhh!!!!

Sssssshhhhhhhh!!!!!Mama is so concerned about Mama's boy especially of how he chooses his beauty products. Sometimes he just bought the beauty products from the convenient store which is totally not suitable for the skin...Sigh...
