SELF/ish SKINCARE FOR MEN - BEST CLEAN FACIAL MOISTURIZER, BEST CLEAN EYE CREAM AND MORE

SELF/ish SKINCARE FOR MEN - BEST CLEAN FACIAL MOISTURIZER, BEST CLEAN EYE CREAM AND MORE

IMG_5771.JPG

In last week’s blog article on what I consider The Best Cleansing Balms for Dry Skin, Oily Skin and Sensitive Skin, I mentioned that I had just been prescribed a cool, new non-medical treatment for migraines.

The breakthrough Nerivio device is an iPhone activated arm-band that sends electronic pulses through the nerves in the upper arm to the back of the brain, targeting the point where pain receptors trigger a migraine attack.

The futuristic, medicine-free technology was named one of the 100 best inventions of 2019 by Time Magazine. And I was naturally intrigued by its potential as a drug-free replacement for the treatment of my migraines.

As of the writing of last week’s blog, I had not yet had the chance to take it for a test drive. But over the past week, I’ve used my Nerivio at the onset of three separate migraine attacks as they were about to trigger.

If you’re familiar with how migraine meds work, you know that you need to take them at the very onset, at the first inkling that something is happening. They don’t function like an OTC headache medicine like acetaminophen, paracetamol or ibuprofen.

IMG_5778.jpg

Those drugs can usually end a headache hours after an attack. In contrast, once a migraine fully ignites, it’s almost impossible to stop. The major downside to that is an over-reliance on migraine drugs to treat what may or may not be the beginning of an attack.

Because I’m not always certain that what I’m sensing will erupt into a full-blown migraine, I’m forced to take far more of these drugs than I want to. It’s just not healthy.

And the drugs often cloud my thoughts in something best described as brain fog.

You’re likely familiar with something similar. You experience it every morning between the time you wake up and your first few sips of coffee.

That cloudy state where you’re not all there, not thinking clearly, is brain fog. And migraine meds replicate that at any hour of the day. I have literally had to decide if it’s better for me to think and work through the migraine or the brain fog. Often, if I have a lot of work to do, I’ve opted for the migraine. How crazy is that?!

So for me, Nerivio feels like a gift from the future. It feels like the kind of treatment you’d get in the sickbay on the Starship Enterprise! How amazing is it that this seemingly simple device on my arm can actually prevent a migraine attack? But it somehow can — and has, at least partly. Each of the three times I’ve used it, it prevented a potential migraine from erupting. The third time, however, the device prevented the initial migraine attack, but it erupted anyway a few hours later. (I ended up taking the meds!)

Welcome to the future!


IMG_5507.jpg

The skincare stuff starts here.

Reflecting on my days as a cosmetic department manager back in the 90s, the skin care of today would have seemed like it came from the distant future. A case in point is the onslaught of high tech treatments like the Dr. Gross SpectraLite EyeCare Pro LED Device for crow’s feet wrinkles, BIOTOC’s Medi Nanopen Pro micro-needling pen and, of course, invasive procedures like Botox injections for the treatment of deeper facial wrinkles (and migraines!).

And then there’s the entire category of skin care called clean beauty — something that would have seemed otherworldly and foreign to me back then. Toxins in skincare products? I can only imagine how bad things were.

What I wouldn’t do to have a bottle (or just the INCI) of my favorite milky cleanser from Christian Dior in 1991. Or Estee Lauder’s Fruition moisturizer — which I launched as a cosmetic manager in LA at Bullock’s Century City. I must have gone through 20 or more bottles of that stuff. I loved the smell and the texture. (Funny, as hard as I’ve tried, I cannot seem to find the INCI of it anywhere online.) No one was reading ingredient lists back then — at least not with a discerning eye! I’m sure Fruition was loaded with toxins and skin irritants.

The clean beauty trend is one of the best, most pro-skin health, that I’ve seen in my entire career. The drive to compel skincare manufacturers and marketers to create skincare products that are truly innocuous and even healthy is unparalleled in the beauty industry.


What is clean beauty and what does clean skincare mean?

I found a thoughtful article full of clean beauty insights on the Martha Stewart website titled, Everything You Need to Know About Clean Skincare, that I think really gets to the heart of the trend.

Right along with green and organic, clean is a word often used today in the sphere of wellness. “Clean eating” is used to describe a diet full of fresh, organic foods made without additives, preservatives, and chemicals. Likewise, clean beauty is used to describe cosmetics formulated without toxic ingredients.

But there’s not a universal definition of clean beauty since it’s not regulated by the government. “In the United States, there's a feeling that the government doesn't restrict enough ingredients in personal care products,” says Tara Foley, founder of clean beauty mecca Follain. “In Europe and Canada, the government better regulates what can and can’t be in beauty products.” In fact, the European Union has banned more than 1,300 ingredients for cosmetic use, while the United States has banned only 11, according to the CSC, or the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics.

Instead, beauty brands are increasingly taking it upon themselves to restrict toxic ingredients linked to cancers and hormone disorders. “Each of us has to decide for ourselves what clean means, and customers have to decide what’s important to them,” Foley says. “I believe clean skincare prioritizes human and environmental health and restricts ingredients that are harmful to that. Clean skincare uses nutritious, plant-based ingredients as much as possible, and safe synthetics as necessary for preservation or performance.”

IMG_3135.jpg

About two years ago, I started to pay very close attention to the clean beauty trend — and to seek out the best clean skincare — the best clean moisturizers, best clean sunscreens, best clean anti-aging serums, and more across the nascent category.

I’ve written extensively about one of my all-time favorite sunscreens, the Time Traveler Ageless Daily Face Sunscreen — a clean formula from one of the best clean sunscreen brands out there, Solara Suncare.

I first came across Solara the same way I’ve discovered so many clean, niche skincare brands, including a personal favorite, the natural, organic Codex Beauty. I found both on the cyber pages of Beauty Independent.

But gone are the days when I’ve had to scour the beauty marketplace, actively seeking out clean skincare brands and weeding through numerous products to find the best clean moisturizer for face that actually promotes skin health. Now it seems new, clean skincare brands are cropping up weekly!

In fact, I’ve been involved in several discussions for new brands over the past two years and it’s a commonly accepted belief that if you’re going to create a new skincare or beauty brand, the products have to be clean. Usually, the standard is what’s referred to as Sephora clean. That means adhering to Sephora’s guidelines for clean skincare and makeup formulations.

5d3b1fce8813a2085325c666-sm.jpeg

Gone, too, are the days where clean skincare products commanded a premium price. Today, as 2020 draws to a welcome close, clean skincare has merged with affordable skincare. Affordable luxury brands like Ghost Democracy and SELF/ish are offering some of the best clean facial skincare products at prices not much higher than what The Inkey List and Deciem’s The Ordinary offer.

Let’s take a look at one of the new brands that’s helping to pave the way to the future of skin care…

IMG_5819.jpg

Meet SELF/ish

SELF/ish launched over the summer with a full range of clean, effective, vitamin-infused skin care — seven products in all. Each is democratically priced, ranging from $12-$25. Notably, the SELF/ish daily skincare routine for men includes a facial scrub, eye cream, moisturizer, exfoliating pads and a face cleanser that I’m absurdly obsessed with.

The SELF/ish range is so affordable, an entire daily skincare routine costs little more than $100 total!

“SELF/ish is built for the unapologetically unique man who is uncompromising in his pursuit of the best for himself.”

- Co-Founder Andrew Knox

The new, clean skincare brand targeted for men was founded by a group of guys (and friends of mine) — all skincare enthusiasts — living their best life in sunny Southern California. SELF/ish has been a labor of love for them and it’s taken two years to get the brand off the ground. Trust me, it’s been well worth the wait!

Let’s take a look at my favorites from the SELF/ish collection…


IMG_5670.jpg

SELF/ish | Facial Cleanser

While cleansing is ritualistic and an essential component of my skincare routine, it doesn’t always have to be so serious. It can be fun, too! And that’s exactly what the new SELF/ish Facial Cleanser is — fun!

As I’ve previously admitted, I like my cleansers to be more sensorial; whether that’s through texture, scent, or both. With the Facial Cleanser from indie men’s brand SELF/ish, you get the whole package.

IMG_5665.jpg

The first thing you notice about the brand’s Facial Cleanser is its surprising liquid gel texture. It pours out of the tube with a silky, lavishing feel that I love. It’s also got a crisp, refreshing scent derived from the lemon and orange peel oils in the formula.

I’m not a fan of fragrant plant oils in skin care; the only exception being a wash-off cleanser. In a cleanser, they have an actual purpose — to bring a little uplifting joy to a skincare routine. And I most often enjoy the SELF/ish Facial Cleanser in my morning shower!

It’s a wonderful, clean cleanser that makes me smile. In addition to being one of the best clean facial cleansers, the formula also contains a beneficial blend of exfoliating AHA and BHA acids, including Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, Mandelic Acid and Malic Acid.

As with all exfoliating acid cleansers, it’s wise to leave it on your face for a minute or so to let the acids do their thing. By washing it off immediately, skin can’t benefit from the reliable exfoliating power of the acids. And, you’ll see a brighter, glowing complexion!

IMG_3119.JPG

The SELF/ish Facial Cleanser also contains tiny scrub particles that can gently slough off dead surface skin cells if massaged onto the skin. I’m not really a fan of physical exfoliation as it can easily scratch the skin barrier, weakening skin’s defenses and countering all the things you do to enhance the health of your skin. So never use too much pressure with a physical scrub!

While the scrub particles in the SELF/ish Facial Cleanser seem gentle enough, given the formula’s effective level of exfoliating acids, you actually get a more effective exfoliating benefit by leaving it on as a mask for a few minutes.

SELF/ish | Oil-Free Moisturizer

I first reviewed the SELF/ish Oil-Free Moisturizer in my blog article titled, Summer Moisturizers Part I – Some of the Best Lightweight Face Creams for Oily Skin and All Skin Types in Hot Weather. You can catch the full piece here.

Ideal for all skin types in warmer weather, or oilier skin types all year round, the SELF/ish Oil-Free Moisturizer is a relatively lightweight lotion for face — with a kick. Like all SELF/ish products, it’s powered by a vitamin complex of B5, C, E and the Vitamin A alternative, Bakuchiol.

IMG_5800.jpg

It’s also got a hefty blend of antioxidants beyond the brand’s signature Vitamin Boost Complex. A scan of the INCI and I find nourishing Chondrus Crispus Extract, drawn from red algae, and power-antioxidant Ferulic Acid — Vitamin C’s stabilizing BFF.

But the real complexion perfecting oomph behind the formula is the inclusion of a full range of exfoliating, pore-clearing acids. From the gentler PHA family, is Gluconolactone — a polyhydroxy acid considered among the best acid exfoliants for the skin by the experts on the Paula’s Choice Research Team.


What are polyhydroxy acids and how do they work?

Polyhydroxy acids are ingredients such as gluconolactone and lactobionic acid. They’re supposed to be as effective as AHAs, but less sensitizing. 

Gluconolactone and lactobionic acid are chemically and functionally similar to AHAs (such as glycolic acid). The significant difference between them and AHAs is that gluconolactone and lactobionic acid have larger molecular structures, which limits their ability to penetrate the skin, resulting in less potential for sensitizing side-effects. Supposedly, this reduced absorption into the skin does not hamper their effectiveness. 

Does that mean gluconolactone and lactobionic acid are better for your skin than AHAs in the form of glycolic acid or lactic acid? According to an Internet-published class lecture by Dr. Mark G. Rubin, a board-certified dermatologist and assistant clinical professor of dermatology at the University of California, San Diego, research on gluconolactone demonstrated only a “6% decrease in dermal penetration” in comparison to glycolic acid, which “isn’t a dramatic improvement.” 

Gluconolactone may be slightly less sensitizing for some skin types, but this isn’t the magic bullet for exfoliation some cosmetics companies have been extolling. 

Polyhydroxy acids can also function as antioxidants and may promote some amount of improvement in skin’s surface strength.

In addition to relatively gentle polyhydroxy acid, the SELF/ish Oil-Free Moisturizer contains several of the more common exfoliating AHA’s, including Citric Acid, Mandelic Acid and Malic Acid. I love that the SELF/ish chemist opted for these three more gentle alpha hydroxy acids rather than the more potent, harsher Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid.

At higher levels, AHA’s like glycolic and lactic can be too much in a daily moisturizer. Skin just doesn’t need that much exfoliation. After all, gentler is the way to go in a daily moisturizer — and the Oil-Free Moisturizer delivers an ample exfoliating effect for daily use.

IMG_8707.JPG

In place of moisture-infusing oils, the formula relies on humectant Sodium Hyaluronate and Dimethicone to lock in moisture and prevent water loss. That’s particularly essential in hot weather when skin loses water through excessive sweating. And again, it’s ideal for oily skin all day, every day.

SELF/ish | Exfoliating Pads

I’m a long-time fan of the iconic acid-infused exfoliating pads from Dr. Dennis Gross. But two things prevent me from incorporating the classic Alpha Beta Extra Strength Daily Peels into my regular, daily skincare routine.

First, at $88 for 30 pads, they’re just too damn expensive. That’s almost $3 for a single treatment! And second, while they’re soaked in multiple beneficial alpha hydroxy acids, they’re also soaked in drying, skin-damaging denatured alcohol. It’s so counterintuitive and serves to whipsaw the skin. Not exactly pro-skin health, doc!

So I always have my eye out for a legitimate replacement. And I found one with the SELF/ish Exfoliating Pads. If you didn’t catch me using them for #selfcaresunday on my IGTV a couple of weeks ago, be sure to check it out here!

IMG_5316.jpg

The SELF/ish AHA-infused peel pads are just $25 for a 30-count jar, less than a dollar per application!

The SELF/ish formula contains 10% Glycolic Acid — an equivalent dose to Dr. Gross’ Alpha Beta Extra Strength Daily Peels — in addition to Mandelic Acid, Malic Acid and Lactic Acid.

There’s also an ample amount of natural BHA in the form of natural Willow Bark Extract to flush pores out of the gunk that can lead to blemishes and weaken healthy skin functions.

The clean SELF/ish formula also contains multiple skin soothers and antioxidant botanical extracts. (In contrast, the Dr. Gross Alpha Beta Extra Strength Daily Peels are not a clean formula.) With all that goodness, as important as what’s in the formula is what isn’t — no drying alcohols!

Why do brands like Dr. Gross put skin-compromising denatured (or isopropyl) alcohol into their products? Because denatured alcohol is used to weaken the skin barrier for the purpose of enhancing the penetration of actives like beneficial AHA acids. That means better results — and better clinicals for marketing campaigns. At the expense of long-term skin health.

IMG_5318.jpg

What does alcohol in skincare do?

There’s an excellent article from the Paula’s Choice Research Team on the brand’s website titled, Alcohol in Skin Care: The Facts. In it, the experts describe the purpose of drying alcohol in a skincare formula and its effects on the skin.

Bad vs. Good Alcohol in Cosmetic Formulas

When we express concern about the presence of alcohol in skin care or makeup products, we’re referring to a drying type of alcohol that you’ll most often see listed on an ingredient label as SD alcohol, denatured alcohol, or, less often, isopropyl alcohol. These types of volatile alcohols give products a quick-drying finish, immediately degrease skin, and feel weightless on skin, so it’s easy to see their appeal, especially for those with oily skin.

But those short term benefits end up with negative long term consequences.

When you see these names of alcohol listed among the first six ingredients on an ingredient label, without question they will aggravate and be cruel to skin. No way around that, it’s simply bad for all skin types. Consequences include dryness, disruption of the surface of skin’s microbiome and barrier (the latter being especially bad for skin), and a strain on how skin replenishes, renews, and rejuvenates itself. Alcohol just weakens everything about skin.

Just to be 100% clear, there are other types of alcohols, known as fatty alcohols, which are absolutely non-irritating and can be exceptionally beneficial for skin. Examples you’ll see on ingredient labels include cetylstearyl, and cetearyl alcohol. All of these are good ingredients for dry skin, and in small amounts fine for any skin type as they give a pleasing texture and help keep ingredients stable in products. It’s important to discern these skin-friendly forms of alcohol from the problematic types of alcohol.

Likewise, you may have heard that alcohol is a good ingredient because it helps other ingredients like retinol and vitamin C absorb into skin more effectively. Although it’s true that it does enhance absorption of ingredients, the alcohol also destroys skin’s surface and the very substances that keep your skin healthy over the long term. There are certainly other, gentler ways to get good ingredients into skin, without damaging its outer layer, an issue that causes more problems than benefits.


Pasted Graphic 12.jpg

Rather than using drying alcohol, the SELF/ish chemists had the wisdom to opt for Dimethyl Isosorbide, a legitimate alternative to denatured alcohol.

DMI is a 100% pure substance, sustainably extracted from corn sugar. It’s used to stabilize, solve (or dissolve), and deliver active ingredients into the skin, similarly to alcohol. DMI has been proven to deliver significantly higher efficacy — without damaging the skin barrier.

This is true innovation and, at least for me, a welcome alternative to drying, skin-damaging alcohols. I love the SELF/ish Exfoliating Pads — and have actually yet to experience the kind of irritation I’m accustomed to with a 10% concentration of Glycolic Acid. Bravo, SELF/ish!

SELF/ish Eye Cream

I had just completed my latest article on new eye creams titled, A Few New Eye Creams I’m Really into Now with Farmacy, First Aid Beauty and More! when I came across the new SELF/ish Eye Cream — one of the best clean eye creams available.

The SELF/ish Eye Cream could very easily have been among my top picks. It’s super gentle for the eye area, and super nourishing, too. I can imagine no worse area of the skin to apply a product that contains toxins, alcohol or fragrance. And the clean SELF/ish Eye Cream is devoid of all of that nonsense.

IMG_5657.jpg

Instead, the SELF/ish Eye Cream formula contains a high concentration of the skin-replenishing, non-fragrant plant oil Sunflower Seed Oil, the second ingredient.

There’s humectant Sodium Hyaluronate and several antioxidant botanical extracts, too, including Albizia Julibrissin Bark Extract, or Birch Bark Extract.

But the real anti-aging power at the heart of the formula is a blend of four peptides and the brand’s signature Vitamin Boost Complex, comprising vitamins B5, C, E and the Vitamin A alternative, Bakuchiol.

The combination of the plumping peptides Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, Dipeptide-2, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, and Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12 combine for a concentration of about 4% — a healthy, effective amount for the delicate eye area.

IMG_5658.jpg

And while I love all of that, perhaps what I appreciate most about the SELF/ish Eye Cream is its perfect texture — not too thick, not too thin. It’s just right! And, it comes in a tube to preserve its anti-aging and antioxidant power over the life of the product.

At just $22, it’s a phenomenal value for such a well-formulated, toxin-free, anti-aging eye treatment.

That’s it, guys! I hope you’ve enjoyed getting to know the SELF/ish brand a bit more. And, hey, while it’s marketed to men, I’ve already heard that women are loving the products, too. Why not? Skin is skin!
