Where to start when adopting a care ritual for the first time?

If you’re just beginning, there’s no need for a ten-step routine. Three steps and their associated products are enough to make a real difference every day. The first is a facial cleanser, used morning and evening to purify the skin and prepare for the next treatments. The second is a moisturising cream suited to your skin type, applied immediately after cleansing. The third: a gentle deodorant, free from aluminium salts, which naturally fits into your post-shower routine. For those who shave, add an after shave care – a balm or gel cream, depending on your preference, to soothe and hydrate skin after shaving.

What are the essentials for a men’s toiletry bag?

A complete toiletry bag covers four areas: face, beard or shaving, body and hair. For the face, the basics include a cleanser and a moisturising cream. For shaving, plan for a shaving gel or soap plus a suitable after shave care: discover all our shaving and after shave treatments. For the body, a scented shower gel and deodorant are sufficient daily, ideally complemented by a body milk for hydration: explore our men's body care. For hair, choose a shampoo suited to your scalp and a conditioner for the lengths.

How to build a complete care ritual according to your needs?

Once the basics are in place, you can tailor your ritual to your concerns. If your skin feels tight or shows early signs of ageing, opt for more targeted care, a serum and eye contour, to gradually integrate. If your skin is shiny or prone to imperfections, favour light textures and mattifying care. L’Occitane en Provence offers care for every skin type and concern. For beard care, beard soap and oil are sufficient for short beards; longer beards require more structured care.
