Clear skin isn’t about having a complicated routine or spending hours in the bathroom.

For most men, the biggest improvements come from simple habits that support the skin barrier, manage oil levels, and reduce irritation from shaving, sweat, and daily life.

Alongside those habits, supporting your skin from within can make a noticeable difference too.

Arella Skin Gummies and our plant-based liquid collagen are designed to help with hydration, texture, and overall skin health, giving your routine an extra layer of support.

Here, we’ll break everything down in a straightforward way so you can understand what your skin needs, how to reduce acne, and how to build an easy routine that actually works.

While everyone’s skin is different, the basics stay the same: consistency, hydration, and nourishing your skin from the inside out.

And because men’s skin often produces more oil and tends to be thicker, a routine that balances rather than strips is key.

Understanding What Your Skin Needs

Men’s skin usually has larger pores and produces more oil, which can make it more prone to congestion.

On top of that, shaving can irritate the skin, weaken the barrier, and make breakouts or ingrown hairs more likely.

Instead of trying to “dry out” your skin, the goal is to support it so it can stay balanced, hydrated, and calm.

Getting clear skin is also not just about what you put on your face. Sleep, stress, water intake, smoking, alcohol, and diet all play a role.

A gentle, consistent approach gives much better results than harsh scrubbing or over-washing.

Daily Habits for Clear Skin

Clear skin starts with a few everyday steps that keep your skin balanced and supported.

Cleanse Twice Daily

A simple, gentle cleanse in the morning and evening removes oil, sweat, SPF, and dirt that build up throughout the day.

Avoid harsh soaps or anything that leaves your skin tight afterwards. Clean skin reduces the chance of blocked pores and helps any products you use afterwards work more effectively.

Moisturise - Even If You Have Oily Skin

Skipping moisturiser is one of the most common mistakes men make. When your skin is dehydrated, it produces more oil to compensate.

A lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturiser keeps your skin hydrated without feeling greasy and prevents dryness from shaving or cold weather.

Exfoliate a Few Times a Week

Exfoliation smooths dead skin cells and helps stop pores from clogging. Stick to gentle exfoliants once or twice a week.

Going overboard can irritate the skin, cause redness, and actually trigger more breakouts. A balanced approach keeps skin clear without disturbing the barrier.

Use SPF Daily

Sun exposure is one of the biggest contributors to early ageing and uneven texture. A lightweight SPF protects your skin every day - even when it’s cloudy - and helps prevent hyperpigmentation caused by old breakouts.

How Men Can Reduce Acne

Acne in men is often linked to oil production, sweat, gym routines, diet, stress, or irritation from shaving. These simple adjustments can make a noticeable difference:

Avoid Touching or Picking Your Skin

Touching your face transfers bacteria and dirt onto your skin. Picking or squeezing spots can push the inflammation deeper, cause redness, and increase the chance of scarring.

Clean Shaving Tools and Avoid Dry Shaving

Shaving can trigger breakouts if the blade is clogged or dull. Use clean, sharp razors and always shave on damp skin with a lubricant such as gel or cream. Shaving with dry skin increases friction and irritation.

Shower After Workouts

Sweat itself doesn’t cause acne, but leaving it on the skin can contribute to clogged pores. Washing shortly after training helps keep congestion to a minimum.

Don’t Scrub Your Face

It’s tempting to scrub aggressively when you’re breaking out, but harsh exfoliation damages the skin barrier and can make acne worse. Gentle, regular care is much more effective.

Supporting Clear Skin From the Inside Out

Topical care is only one part of the picture. Internal support can make a real difference to how your skin looks and feels.

Hydration and Nutrition

Drinking enough water, eating balanced meals, and getting enough sleep all contribute to clearer skin.

Dehydration and a disrupted sleep schedule can impact oil production and make breakouts more noticeable.

How Arella Can Support Men’s Clear Skin Goals

We have two easy daily options that support clearer, healthier-looking skin:

Arella Skin Gummies

Arella Skin Gummies are designed to support clearer, more balanced skin from within. They bring together antioxidants, prebiotics, healthy fats, and essential nutrients to help your skin look and feel its best.

They work across three key areas:

Balance

The formula supports the gut–skin axis to help reduce inflammation and improve overall skin clarity. This steady internal support can make a real difference if you’re prone to congestion or uneven texture.

Clarify

Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Zinc work together to help calm blemishes and reduce acne flare-ups. These nutrients play a role in keeping the skin barrier supported and encouraging smoother-looking skin.

Glow

Healthy fats and antioxidants help maintain hydration and elasticity, contributing to firmer, more radiant-looking skin over time.

When taken consistently, the gummies help support balanced, clearer, and healthier-looking skin in a way that fits easily into your daily routine.

Arella Vegan Liquid Collagen Supplement

Arella’s liquid collagen supplement identically matches human type I collagen, a level of precision that bovine and marine collagen sources aren’t able to achieve.

Because it’s absorbed efficiently and taken as a daily liquid dose, it’s convenient and fits seamlessly into a morning routine.

Consistent use can help with smoother-looking skin, improved texture, and long-term skin health - all of which support clearer skin overall.

Final Thoughts

Clear skin doesn’t require perfection - just steady habits that work with your skin rather than against it.

A simple cleansing routine, good hydration, and calm shaving practices go a long way.

Our skin gummies and plant-based liquid collagen supplement offer simple daily support from within, helping your skin stay hydrated, balanced, and healthy alongside your daily routine.

By staying consistent and listening to how your skin responds, you can reduce breakouts, improve texture, and feel more confident in your skin every day.

Yes, but it doesn’t have to be complicated. Cleanse, moisturise, and protect with SPF. Adjust as needed based on oiliness, shaving habits, or breakouts.

Does diet affect men’s skin?

Balanced nutrition, hydration, and limiting smoking or excess alcohol can support clearer skin. Internal supplements like our Skin Gummies or our liquid collagen supplement can also help.
