FAQ'S

How long does it actually take to do this routine?
This basic skincare routine (cleanser, moisturizer, serum, face mist, and eye cream) takes about 2–3 minutes. If you're in a rush, it can be done in around a minute. Mark's record is 49 seconds...
Do guys really need skincare?
Yes! Skincare isn’t about gender; it's about maintaining healthy skin. Men's skin tends to produce more oil and can benefit from cleansing, hydration, and protection just as much as anyone else's, if not more!
What does paraben-free mean?
Paraben-free means the product does not contain parabens, which are preservatives used to prolong shelf life. Some people prefer paraben-free products due to concerns about potential skin irritation or hormone disruption.
Do I need to also use sunscreen?
While Dirt does not offer sunscreen, it is recommended to include in your routine. Sunscreen is essential for protecting your skin from UV damage, which can cause premature aging, dark spots, and skin cancer. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily, even on cloudy days.
What does toner do?
Toner (or Face Mist in our case) helps remove residual dirt, oil, or makeup after cleansing, balances your skin’s pH, and preps it to absorb serums and moisturizers better. Some toners also target specific concerns like acne or dryness.
What does hyaluronic acid do?
Hyaluronic acid is a humectant that draws moisture into the skin, keeping it hydrated, plump, and smooth. It works well for all skin types, especially dry or dehydrated skin, and is best applied after cleansing and before moisturizing.
