What It Is
A conditioning first cleanse for men’s daily skin routine.
#1 Alpha Omega Cleanser for Him is the first step in the Metrin Skincare System for Him.
It helps cleanse the skin and beard area while loosening the daily buildup that can sit on men’s skin — including oil, sweat, sunscreen, and surface impurities.
For men who shave, it also plays a practical role. #1 helps soften facial hair before shaving and can be used as the shaving lubricant for traditional razor shaving.
This is not a harsh scrub or a quick one-step wash. It is the first part of a complete cleansing, shaving, and conditioning ritual designed for skin that feels clean, comfortable, and well cared for every day.
How to Use for Shaving
Traditional razor shaving
Use #1 Alpha Omega Cleanser for Him to cleanse the skin and beard area. Reapply as needed and use as the shaving lubricant. Shave gently, then follow with #2 Lathering Cleanser for Him to cleanse away shaving debris.
