The post-workout glow is for real. Those hours of shedding kilos, building muscle and toning up, work magic for your mind, body and soul. What’s more - sweating it out at the gym can give your skin a boost too. When you combine your diet and exercise routine with a great body-care regimen, you can combat signs of aging, stress and pollution too. Let them see the radiant output of the grind - never the blood and sweat you put into it.
Just like your recipe for gains, our men’s body-wash guide is a simple but effective set of thumb rules to help you choose the right rituals, products and applications. Let’s get started
Assembling your basic body care kit
Body wash
The debate between bar soap and liquid body wash is settled when you consider the convenience, portability and skin-friendliness of shower gels. Besides a refreshing fragrance and lather,your men’s body wash should suit your skin type and schedule. The Bravado Fresh Kick Bodywash is a great pick for nearly all skin types but if you’re looking for something quick and easy on-the-go, our Head To Toe Bodywash gets the job done.
Body scrub
Unlike body wash, your body scrub is not part of your daily routine. Consider incorporating a good full-body exfoliating regimen into your weekly self-care program. While chemical exfoliation is all the rage right now, a product with natural ingredients is a fantastic alternative as organic compositions do not damage your natural skin barriers. Bravado’s Spa Therapy Body Scrub infused with coconut and almond oils makes the cut with its ability to cleanse your skin of impurities without stripping it of its elasticity and moisture.
Body lotion
Skipping moisturiser is like skipping leg day. No amount of cardio or showering can make up for missing either of these two essentials. Get your hands on a lightweight, non-greasy option like the Bravado Hydra Soft Body Lotion. Bonus benefits include properties that can help even skin tone and repair UV damage. Absolute wins for the active outdoorsy you!
Key ingredients to look for
The men’s bodycare universe is abundant with a host of chemical components that are always trending. But the sideeffects of excessive exposure to chemicals can be avoided by picking natural ingredients. Read your labels like your bro bibles and look for any of the following green flags
Black Oat Extract
This newage skincare secret is rich in amino acids that make it a powerhouse ingredient. Known for its deeply hydrating properties, it’s used in premium body washes and moisturisers.
Coconut Oil
Besides the obvious moisturising and softening properties, this ingredient has proven antioxidant and antibacterial effects that can suit senstive or acne-prone skin.
Miracle Peptide
Originally derived from the Moringa tree, Miracle Peptides have been formmulated to detoxify skin and cleanse it of pollutants, dust and other impurities.
Lecithin
Plant-based lecithin is widely used in Bravado skincare for protecting your skin’s natural barrier and conserving hydration. Its soothing and smoothening effect lasts longer than ordinary chemical products.
