SKINCARE TUTORIAL FOR LADS [GAMER MODE: ON]

Whether you're a newbie, a casual, or a seasoned pro, we've all got our levels when it comes to skincare. No matter where you're at, this guide will level you up from a basic noob to a skincare legend. Grab your controller and hit start 'cause we’re about to begin in 3, 2, 1…

1. NEWBIE LEVEL: CLEAN UP YOUR ACT

Your skin picks up all sorts of grime and muck during the day, turning your face into a bit of a dirt magnet.

To clear the first stage, just wash your face morning and night. Keeps your skin fresh and fends off oil, shine, and those pesky spots.

Ditch the cheap soap and shower gel that dries your skin out worse than a lizard in the sun.

Get a proper cleanser that kicks out dirt and keeps your face hydrated and fresh, like a foam party in Ibiza. Just like our Splash Foam Party, funnily enough.

2. STANDARD LEVEL: HYDRATE, MATE

Hold off on dunking your head under the tap, but the next step in your skincare quest is...

Daily hydration.

Hydrating means giving your skin the moisture it needs (like watering your mum’s plants but without the hassle).

It keeps your face smooth, flexible, and wrinkle-free. Basically, hydrated skin is happy skin. Why do you think Water-type Pokémon are so OP? To level up, get yourself a good moisturiser (one that's lightweight and non-greasy) and use it daily.

3. ADVANCED LEVEL: CHOOSE YOUR PATH

This is where it gets a bit tricky and turns into a choose-your-own-adventure. There’s no one-size-fits-all here; it's all about what works best for you.

Let’s quickly run through the most common skincare needs. Buckle up, it’s like a Mario Kart race:

  • Exfoliation: This helps to shed dead skin cells, speeds up cell regeneration, and tackles issues like spots, pores, blemishes, and fine lines. It gives you that “I could eat you up” look.

    Need an exfoliator that's more addictive than Candy Crush? Try our Coffee Crush.
  • Eye bags, dark circles, crow’s feet: If your eyes could talk, they'd scream “Game Over.” The skin around your eyes is thinner and more delicate, so you need creams that pamper that area.

    Want a look that’s as sharp as a GTA police chase? Check out our Banzeye!
     
  • Fine lines and wrinkles: They're part of leveling up each year, so forget about “anti-aging” tricks. Instead, get a cream with ingredients that genuinely reduce signs of aging, like the star power-up in Mario.

    And if you want to enjoy using it while gaining experience points, try our Wow Young.
  • Need to hit pause? Use a mask like our Heroe's Recharging Mask  to recharge after a long day or a rough night out.

    In 20 minutes, you'll feel like you've gained an extra life. 

 

  • Looking for a cream with more combos than Street Fighter? Give our Handsomefyer a go.

    It’s the all-in-one that rules them all: mattifies, hides pores, smooths wrinkles, hydrates, evens skin tone, and has SPF... a real final fantasy.

4. PRO LEVEL: THE FINAL BOSS OF SKINCARE

We don’t know anyone who's completely mastered this (not even the person writing this). The final boss in this level is... sun protection. Sure, the sun gives you a nice tan and feels great, but it also shoots harmful rays at your skin if you don't protect it.

Don’t worry, you can get a tan and protect your skin. To avoid damage, use sunscreen EVERY day, no excuses.

With an all-in-one cream like our Handsomefyer Sun, which gives your face a summer-ready look and has SPF 50 protection, you’ll be turning heads without the redness.

5. SECRET LEVEL: LOVE YOUR SKIN

If there's one thing to take away from this post, it's this: skincare shouldn't be a chore.

At Siwon, we believe that skincare should be enjoyable. Whether it's a relaxing bubble bath, a facial treatment that makes you feel like a kid again, or a bit of self-love (you know what we mean)...

We're here to take care of ourselves, yes, but let’s have fun while doing it. Play, explore, and most importantly, indulge. Otherwise, what's the point?

QUICK RECAP:

  • Newbie level: Wash your face morning and night.
  • Standard level: Hydrate daily.
  • Advanced level: Listen to what your skin needs.
  • Pro level: Use sunscreen every day.

  • Secret level: Make it fun and treat yourself.

 

PS: If you’re still clueless, hunting for your legendary Pokémon of skincare, or collecting samples like "gotta catch 'em all", maybe you need a bit of extra help...

Check out our product bundles, where you’ll get key products at the best price. Among our favourites is the Morning Glory Pack, which includes three daily essentials: Cleanser (Splash Foam Party), Exfoliator (Coffee Crush), and mattifying moisturiser (Dragon Shot). Ready, set, go... Smash the game!

We do cool right!
