Combination skin is, precisely how it sounds, a combination of two skin types. It tends to be oily in the t-zone (the forehead, nose and chin) and dry or normal around the eyes and on cheeks.
Given combination skin is comprised of two different skin types, caring for it can be complicated. While men could use different formulas on different areas of their face, the easiest method to care for combination skin is to use products formulated for all skin types. These will help balance skin without causing excess oil in the t-zone or over-drying dry areas.
Men with combination skin should seek out a gentle cleanser, such as a gel face wash, a toner — which can help reduce extra surface oil in those areas that are oily — and a facial moisturizer with SPF to help protect the skin barrier from damaging UV rays, which can prematurely age skin. Start with a skincare routine for combination skin to find products for balanced, smooth, healthy-looking skin!
The ideal skincare routine for men with combination skin should balance hydration and oil control. Start with a gentle cleanser to remove dirt and excess oil, followed by a toner to refresh and balance the skin. Use a lightweight moisturizer to hydrate without feeling greasy. A non-irritating shave cream is key to preventing sensitivity, and adding a serum can help address concerns like uneven texture or early signs of aging. Kiehl’s offers targeted products to support a simple and effective routine tailored for combination skin.
Yes, you can use the same moisturizer on both oily and dry areas, just make sure it’s lightweight, non-greasy, and non-comedogenic. Kiehl’s moisturizers for combination skin are specially formulated to balance oil production while providing lasting hydration, making them effective for use across the entire face.
Men with combination skin can benefit from Kiehl’s Facial Fuel Energizing Face Wash, Facial Fuel Energizing Tonic, and Facial Fuel Energizing Moisture Treatment. These products help cleanse, refresh, and hydrate without overwhelming oily areas or drying out sensitive zones.
Men with combination skin should exfoliate 1–2 times per week to remove dead skin cells and help prevent clogged pores, especially in oil-prone areas. Choose a gentle exfoliator like Kiehl’s Facial Fuel Energizing Scrub, which is effective without being harsh on dry patches.
