Many advertisements, products and self-care routine tips have historically been focused on women, but it’s just as important for men to take care of their bodies inside and out. A good self-care routine starts with the right everyday rituals. If you’re new to self care, or just want to switch up your routine, here’s what we recommend.

Prioritize moisturizing skincare

Healthy-looking skin starts within skin’s surface, and the Aveeno® Gentle Moisturizing Facial Cleansing Bar with nourishing oat works to wash away dirt and oil, and soothe your skin with a formula specifically formulated for dry skin. For best use, wash your face with the Aveeno® Moisturizing Bar, rinse and pat dry. Use every day for soft, smooth, naturally healthy-looking skin.

And skin care doesn’t stop with your face: Lubriderm® Daily Moisture Fragrance-Free Lotion + Pro-Ceramide is an unscented, lightweight body and face lotion clinically proven to provide 24-hour hydration, helping restore your skin’s moisture barrier for healthy-looking skin.

Optimize your oral care

A good oral healthcare routine includes flossing, brushing and using mouthwash. This trio can help improve both your smile and your wellness. If you’re not used to using mouthwash, try LISTERINE® Total Care Zero Alcohol-Free Mouthwash. It provides the same dental hygiene benefits as LISTERINE® Total Care, but in a less intense, alcohol-free mouthwash formula. The fluoride formula helps prevent dental cavities by providing 50% greater strengthening of weakened enamel vs. brushing alone.*

Address aches and pains at the onset

We all know the feeling — you feel a muscle, stomach or headache coming on and you just don’t want to give in to symptoms. Addressing these at the onset will help you tackle the rest of your day rather than spending it in bed. Tylenol® Regular Strength Liquid Gels contains 325 mg of acetaminophen to help alleviate pain due to headache, muscular aches, backache, toothache, minor pain of arthritis and the common cold.

Prioritize sleep

A good night’s sleep is important so that both your body and mind can rest and recharge, helping prevent a variety of health issues and giving you the energy to face a new day. When it’s not pain that’s keeping you up, Simply Sleep® Nighttime Sleep Aid Caplets can help relieve occasional sleeplessness by easing you into sleep so you wake up ready to go. Simply Sleep® is non-habit forming when used as directed.

Hair care (and loss)

Losing your hair can be frustrating, and while this is often a normal part of aging, the most common cause of hair loss is actually hereditary. In fact, up to 40% of both men and women experience genetic hair loss. You can regrow thinning hair by using Men’s Rogaine® 5% Minoxidil Solution, which is the #1 dermatologist-recommended and best-selling hair regrowth brand worldwide. Formulated with extra strength 5% minoxidil, it is clinically proven to improve hair regrowth by 34% after 16 weeks. The easy-to-apply topical hair loss treatment is designed to fit into your daily hair care routine and should be used at the first signs of hair thinning.
