Because your skin deserves more than “just soap and water.”
Most men’s skincare routines have traditionally lived somewhere between “whatever’s in the shower” and “I’ll just borrow my partner’s stuff.” But things are changing. And good news? Taking care of your skin doesn't have to feel complicated or time-consuming.
Whether you're a gym guy, a 9-to-5 hustler, a weekend adventurer, or somewhere in between, your body deals with daily wear and tear, and your skin deserves the same attention as your face or beard. Let me tell you, the right natural body care products that work with your skin type, not against it.
At Mintree, we’ve created a thoughtful collection of natural body care products for men, from refreshing natural body wash to skin-smoothing body scrubs, deeply hydrating body lotions, and exfoliating foot peel masks, all crafted to keep your skin feeling clean, calm, and healthy.
Let’s have a look into how to build your body care routine based on your skin type and what to actually look for when buying products (yes, even shower gel has levels to it).
Step 1: Know Your Skin Type
Before tossing random products into your cart, take a sec to figure out your skin type. It’ll help you pick formulas that actually work.
Here’s the quick overview -
Dry Skin - Tight, itchy, flaky, especially after a hot shower
Oily Skin - Skin feels slick by midday, breakouts on back or chest
Combination Skin - Dry in some spots (arms, legs), oily in others (back, shoulders)
Sensitive Skin - Easily irritated, reacts to fragrance or harsh ingredients
Normal Skin - Not too dry, not too oily—your skin behaves, mostly
Got it? Cool. Let’s build your routine from here.
Step 2: Start with the Basics
Your shower is where it all begins. A quality natural body wash or shower gel should clean sweat, dirt, and oil without drying you out.
-
For dry or sensitive skin - Go for a natural body wash with gentle cleansers and hydrating oils (like jojoba or shea). Avoid sulfates.
-
For oily or acne-prone skin - A balancing shower gel with tea tree, charcoal, or mint will help cleanse deeper without irritation.
Mintree Tip - The key is to clean your skin, not strip it. If your skin feels tight post-shower, your body wash might be too harsh.
Step 3: Don’t Skip the Scrub
Yes, men need exfoliation too. A natural body scrub helps unclog pores, prevent ingrown hairs, and slough off dead skin.
How to use it?
-
2x a week is plenty
-
Focus on rougher spots—elbows, knees, back, shoulders
-
Rinse thoroughly and follow with moisture
Great for guys who work out often or deal with “backne” or rough skin
Mintree Tip - Our natural body scrub is gentle enough for sensitive skin but strong enough to keep things smooth.
Step 4: Natural Body Lotion or Body Butter?
Hydration isn’t just for winter. Even in summer, sweat and sun can dehydrate your skin.
Here’s the difference -
Natural Body Lotion - Lightweight, fast-absorbing, great for daily use
Natural Body Butter - Thicker, richer, perfect for super dry or flaky skin
Choose based on your skin type -
-
Dry/Sensitive - Body butter with nourishing oils like coconut or almond
-
Oily/Normal - Go for a lightweight natural body lotion with aloe or cucumber
Mintree Tip: Apply right after showering when skin’s still damp—it locks in hydration better.
Step 5: Take Care of the Hands & Feet Too (Seriously)
If your feet are dry, cracked, or just feel tired after long days, it’s time to bring in the big guns.
Foot Peel Mask - Exfoliates dead skin painlessly. After a few days, the old skin sheds like magic—leaving you with smoother feet.
Hand Peel Mask - Perfect for dry, rough hands (especially if you're someone who works with your hands a lot). Softens and rejuvenates tired skin.
Pro Move - Use these once every few weeks. It’s low effort, high payoff and no, it’s not “too much.” It’s maintenance.
