If you are looking for a perfect shave, discover Insight MAN, our product range dedicated to men care, effective and ICEA certified.

A well-maintained, thick beard can give your face an elegant manly appearance, and is also a trendy and highly sought-after look. But at the same time, a well-shaved face has its advantages: the structure of the face is clearly visible, our general look appears more refined, and last but not least, we do not have to wait for its regrowth and constantly take care of it, to ensure that it stays healthy and disciplined.

Insight has created the Man line to cater to the specific needs of skin and beard. A line of ICEA Eco Bio certified products, with delicate and respectful formulas, which take care of the skin’s hydrolipidic barrier. Among all the products of the Man line, today we want to talk about the shaving products.

How to get a perfect shave?

Before we start, two quick tips to optimise the shaving process and achieve better results:

  • The best time to shave is in the morning, right after cleansing your face with a dedicated cleanser, to remove excess sebum produced during the night. Your skin and your face features are more relaxed in the morning, this will help you achieve a better, closer shave;
  •  If your beard is particularly long, you can trim it with scissors to give you more control when shaving.

    Two products that can’t miss in everyone’s shaving kit are a good soap and a pre-shave oil. Both products are part of the Insight Man’s range

The Body Routine for a Toned and Even Skin

The Body Routine for a Toned and Even Skin

Want to know the perfect body routine for your daily care during the winter? Consistency really makes all the difference!

Good habits have been known to make a difference only when applied consistently. Yet, we often lose interest in a practice when we don’t see immediate results, and we abandon it after a few initial attempts. But as with all things, patience and consistency always pay off, especially when it comes to body care.

A regular body routine, using the right products will bring its results after a few weeks: the skin on the body will appear more toned, hydrated and firm, especially during the winter months, when dehydration and dryness are always around the corner.

The steps to follow are not many, and simpler than you may think. Let’s go through them together!

The ideal body routine starts with exfoliation

Whether it’s a scrub, a peel, mitt or brush, the goal is always the same: exfoliate. There are many ways to get rid of dead cells sitting on the surface of the epidermis, and make room for new ones, rediscovering brighter, firmer and more even skin. 

  • Body Scrub. Probably the best known and most widely used option. It consists of a cream that contains suspended particles with mildly abrasive power, which are able to remove the surface layer of dead cells from the epidermis. These particles can consist of sugar, oat or almond powder, or cherry kernel and quartz powder, as in the INSIGHT Body Scrub, the perfect product for gentle but effective exfoliation.
     
  • Dry Brushing. This is a practice that involves brushing the body with a special brush with semi-hard bristles to promote microcirculation, oxygenate the tissues and at the same time perform a gentle “dry” exfoliation of the body. It is recommended to do this operation in the morning, perhaps before showering, on dry skin, so as to awaken circulation after the night hours.
     
  • Chemical exfoliation. Performs the same function as mechanical exfoliation, but instead of doing it by friction, it does so through the action of chemical molecules. The most commonly used exfoliants for this purpose are certain fruit acids, such as glycolic acid or lactic acid, which help speed up cell turnover. Another ingredient also increasingly used for body products is retinol. Within lotions or cleansers, it helps eliminate the topmost layer of the epidermis, improving and evening out the skin’s texture and complexion.

     

Step 2: An invigorating shower

After exfoliating, it’s time for a nice invigorating shower. Choose an effective but gentle cleanser, and prefer lukewarm showers to long, hot baths, which could weaken the skin barrier in the long run.

Looking for a shower cleanser with a gentle formula that will leave your skin cleansed and hydrated? INSIGHT has created a body cleanser formulated with non-ethoxylated surfactants. What this means is that its formula is more gentle and highly dermocompatible. It also contains plant-derived glycerin and skin-friendly ingredients to reduce any irritation caused by cleansing.

Next stop: Hydration station!

Moisturising your body’s skin after a shower is crucial to keeping it supple and healthy. Choose a moisturising cream or lotion, depending on your needs or preferences. If your body skin feels particularly dry and tight after showering, it means it needs a little extra nourishment. In this case, prefer creamy and nourishing consistencies, with a soothing and comforting action on the skin. If, on the other hand, your skin is normal, you can choose a lighter and fast-absorbing lotion, even with a liquid texture.

Extra pampering for dry areas

The skin of elbows, knees, feet, needs more nourishment than the rest of the body. They are notoriously drier areas and subjected to more friction, so it’s a good habit to dedicate an extra care to them. To do this we can choose a nourishing body butter, or an oil with nourishing and protective properties. These few steps, repeated consistently, will help to keep the skin toned and compact. Try it to believe it!
