Dull Skin

New to male grooming? Or just want more information on bathroom cabinet essentials? Here's our Lifestyle and Grooming Editor Lee Kynaston's Guide to Skincare basics.

Reinvigorate dull, tired skin.

Skin type: Dull.

Characterised by: Grey and lifeless skin.

Routine: To perk up a dull looking complexion you need to get rid of any any dead skin cells that coat the surface of your skin as these scatter light and make it look grey.

Use a face scrub twice a week or look for products containing AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids) which help shift dead cells. If you’re still pale, warm up your skin tone with a tinted moisturiser, bronzer or self-tanner.

Use: Baxter of California Night Cream AHA. Apply before bed to brighten and firm skin for when you wake up.
