BECOME AN EXPERT – SOTHYS HOMME What is the Sothys Homme? A man’s skin is 25% thicker than a woman’s, contains a higher content of collagen and elastin proteins and is more acidic with a pH 4.5-5. The skin is more resistant, firmer and more elastic and subsequently the signs of aging appear later on men’s skin. Typically men have fewer fine lines but when the wrinkles appear they develop rapidly and are deep. A man’s skin tends to be oilier due to the male hormone testosterone and is more prone to acne, blackheads and dilated pores, but the hydrolipidic film which is rich with sebum protects the skin better than a women’s. Daily shaving can be very aggravating for the skin. It destroys the hydrolipidic film that reduces the natural protection of the skin and increases dehydration, the skin becomes thinner, red, irritated and often feels tight. A high percentage of men experience skin irritation due to daily shaving. Sothys Homme answers the specific needs of a man’s skin with the Detoxifying, De-Stressing Treatment and homecare collection.
