Beach Bag Essentials: The Products Every Man Should Pack
A great day at the beach shouldn't come at the expense of your skin. Sun, salt water, sweat, and wind can all take their toll, but the right products will keep your skin protected, hydrated, and looking its best. Here are the essentials our team at Bodé Spa for Men recommends before, during, and after your day in the sun.
Before the Beach
The best summer skin starts before you leave the house.
Start by exfoliating with our Japanese exfoliating towels or Merben Dry Body Brushes. Removing dead skin cells helps your skin feel smoother, improves hydration, and leaves your skin looking healthier. You can use the towel in the shower with your favorite body wash, or the Merben brush on dry skin out of the shower. Scrubbing over your body using circular motions will boost circulation and buff away dead skin.
At the Beach
Now it's time to enjoy the day. Protecting your skin is just as important as packing your towel.
The first essential is SPF. Extended sun exposure can cause premature aging, burns, and long-term skin damage, making sunscreen one of the most important products you'll use. TiZo offers lightweight SPF options for both your face and body that are comfortable enough to wear all day. Remember to reapply every two hours, or more frequently if you're swimming or sweating.
Don't overlook your hair, either. Salt water and wind can quickly leave it dry and tangled. Repêchage Vita Cura Hair Serum helps hydrate, and protect your scalp while you're on the go. It's easy to throw in your beach bag and keeps your hair looking healthy long after you've left the water.
After the Beach
After a full day outside, your skin deserves a chance to recover.
One simple tip: place a sheet mask in the fridge before you leave. When you get home, you'll have a cool, refreshing treatment waiting for you. Whether you need lifting, hydrating, or soothing, Rêpechage has a wide variety of facial sheet masks. The cooling sensation helps refresh tired skin after hours in the sun.
Rehydrating your skin is equally important. Nature's Aid Aloe Gel delivers lightweight hydration to calm and refresh.
A day at the beach should leave you with great memories, not dry skin or unnecessary sun damage. With the right products before, during, and after your time outside, you can keep your skin protected, hydrated, and performing at its best all summer long.
