In order for any business to be of long term value, it needs to consistently serve the wants and needs of its target customers. Since 2008, Miami Beach-based Hey Dude Skin Care has listened to its core market and created a simple, inexpensive system of American-made high performance skincare and grooming tools, sold under our Hey Dude Skin Care™ brand.
With its inviting packaging, whimsical wording (i.e., not stuffy with marketing or medical jargon), and high quality formulations at affordable price points, the Hey Dude Skin Care lineup includes all the key grooming steps any Dude needs to look and smell his best. From a citrus scented pre-shave skin exfoliator, to our new dual pheromone 3-in-1 body wash, shampoo & shave gel (double the pheromones, double the action, got it?), a guy has access to a core set of tools that speak HIS language and get the job done well.
We've also coined the term "Dudification," which we fully explain in our Dudification page. Hey Dude Skin Care views its customers as savvy, connected Dudes who are part of a broader worldwide trend in which men take charge of their overall image. Today's Dude knows he's living in a much different world than his forefathers did. There's enough chaos in a man's life today on the outside – why does he need confusion in his own bathroom? Hey Dude Skin Care's mission is to bring peace and simplicity to a Dude's bathroom.
Most current men's skincare products fall into two categories, neither of which is where you want to be: (1) mass market men's retail brands from well known giants that are essentially re-packaged women's products with more masculine packaging; and (2) high priced ($30 and up) men's specialty brands at cosmetic retailers that charge way too much for the same quality that Hey Dude Skin Care can provide to you priced 50% less. Neither of these two categories inspires Dudes to stay loyal to any single brand for the long term. Who can blame a Dude for being indifferent when faced with these choices?
Instead, Hey Dude Skin Care serves that rapidly expanding segment of men who are image conscious beyond the use of any recognized cheap mass men's brand, but don't want to empty their wallets to buy fancy packaging, exotic ingredients, or to fund a sales clerk's commission at a department store. Let's face it, guys – men are simple creatures, and we don't like shelling out bucks for overpriced stuff that we don't need. Let the ladies shop for their dermatologist's $250 eye cream or moisturizer containing ingredients that you need a PhD to understand. Dudes don't care, want, or need to buy "hope in a jar" like ladies do – we're DUDES and want to act like the men we are, not lemmings chasing the latest fad or gimmick hawked by some doctor on a shopping channel. Give us a simple, effective, step-by-step way to manage our grooming that doesn't insult our brains or wallets. Give us VALUE, give us the tools from Hey Dude Skin Care!
You've hit the jackpot, Dudes. With the system you're buying in Hey Dude Skin Care, you get high performance tools that are on par with products you'd pay through the nose for at a fancy department store or a pricey cosmetic retailer. One of the reasons the founders of Hey Dude Skin Care started the company was to fill the very real lack of quality grooming products men could buy that didn't empty their wallets.
As we describe in our Production Philosophy in the About Us section, "Hey Dude Skin Care has ensured that the products within this system adhere to the highest production values possible, including the use of the best and most stable ingredients that are blended into optimal formulations. Stated simply, Hey Dude Skin Care products WORK, and they work because we understand how to blend the best ingredients in the best way possible!"
While the focus of Hey Dude Skin Care is its laser focus on the need to speak to a guy in HIS language, we never took our eye off the ball - in formulating products boasting great quality at the price points we knew our Dudes wanted to pay. All of our products contain some combination of antioxidants (like white tea extract), to vitamins (including A, C, and E), to specialty desert plant extracts (our Desert Dude Complex explained in Q.4), to first-to-market combinations of lady-attracting pheromones in our Dude Wash. Here's the bottom line – if you can find better quality items for the price you're paying for Hey Dude Skin Care products – buy them.
One of the many great benefits of the Hey Dude Skin Care system is that the products were designed to work on all skin types. Whether you have normal, combination, dry, or oily skin, the core set of Hey Dude Skin Care tools will address your type of skin because we don't use cheap, pore-clogging oils that build up and cause breakouts. For drier skin, our Desert Dude Complex is a unique combination of hydrating plant extracts that mimics the intense moisture-retaining effects of desert plants like yucca and prickly pear cacti. Working together, these premium ingredients help to prevent razor bumps, ingrown hairs and oily breakouts. The Dude is left with a clean shaven, invigorated, and properly balanced, moisturized face that he can show off with confidence!
A guy's skin is about 20% thicker than your typical lady's, and is typically firmer because it's richer in collagen and elastin, the connective tissues that give skin its firmness and elasticity. However, because of more active sebaceous (sweat) glands, men's facial skin tends to be much oilier than a woman's. It's also more prone to dehydration because of daily or regular shaving. In short, a man's face gets dirtier more quickly. It's very important, no matter what skin type you have, to clean your face every day with high performance tools like those sold by Hey Dude Skin Care. It keeps pores clear, skin healthy and you looking like the Dude you were made to be. As guys mature, biochemical changes inevitably occur in elastin and collagen. Without regular care, these natural bonds become drier and tighter, subject to breaking more easily. Think of an old rubber band in your desk drawer that you forgot about from years ago. It's likely dried out and ready to snap and break.
In general, male skin is oilier, with larger pores, a richer blood supply, and an increased a tendency to "sweat." Dudes are less prone to wrinkling than women, but still require deep daily cleansing. The skin aging process itself is the same for men and women, but for men it occurs later and is more marked. In a man's skin, the dermis (inner skin layer) is thicker and richer in collagen, and the epidermis (outermost skin layer) is often more oily. Therefore, it's generally more resistant than a woman's skin to the effects of the sun and other environmental factors. Any guy using the SIMPLE system of Hey Dude Skin Care products daily will naturally be fighting the elements that threaten his Dudification.
