Our Story

Simple Skincare for the Modern Man


For most men, skincare has always felt like a foreign language — store shelves lined with complex products, vague promises, and routines that sound more like rituals. We grew up with no one really telling us how to take care of our skin — and even if we wanted to try, the world of skincare just felt too complicated. Too intimidating.
That’s where rhave was born: millennial men in the middle of the confusion and the complexity of skincare. A realization that skincare shouldn't be scary. It should be simple, clear, and made for men who want to look good, for longer, without spending thousands of dollars and hours on skincare.

When it hits, It Hits... Your Skin Is Changing

Somewhere around your 30s, something shifts. You look in the mirror and notice the first fine lines, the dullness after a long week. At first, it’s subtle, nothing to worry about (you think). Then, it gets real, fast. Your skin is changing. You are getting older buddy.
That’s when most of us realize: we should probably be doing something. Not for vanity, but for health. For longevity. For feeling like your best, most confident self.

We Did the Homework, So You Don’t Have To

At rhave, we went deep — into the science, into the research, into dermatology papers and studies about what actually works for men in their 30s and 40s.
First, NO PRODUCT ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH IS BETTER FOR YOUR SKIN THAN 8 HOURS OF SLEEP, REGULAR EXERCISE, AND A WHOLE FOOD DIET. Yep. We said it. So, you know, start with that. If you are already doing that, then add some collagen to your diet. A collagen supplement for example. Collagen is the protein that your skin needs. Now, if you are doing these things, let us tell you about how rhave can help you. The secret is that you don't need a 12-step routine. You don't need miracle serums or cures. You need the right essentials, that are right for your skin.
rhave is built on those essentials. Products with purpose. Ingredients that work. Formulas backed by science. You just need a couple of things really, and that will take you 95% of the way there. And it will help you look good, for longer. Which is what we want. An easy morning routine that takes less than 5 minutes, and a solid night time routine to help your skin restore during the night. That is it. The rhave essentials are just 7 products, and those 7 products is what science says will help you and your skin look better, for longer. 

We also found that a lot of products actually do your skin more harm than good, so we made you a list of 6 ingredients you should avoid if you are choosing other skincare products that are not from rhave (because we won't put that shit in, ever... We care about you, remember?).

The NoNo list goes like this: Essential Oils, Fragrances, Silicone, SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate), Alcohols, and Chemical Sunscreens

The skincare industry is full of random claims. We are just making one: use our products every day, and your future self will thank you.

Based on this, rhave is committed to transparency. For us that means:

No harmful ingredients — ever. If it’s questionable, it’s out. 

Just the essentials - you really don't need more than a couple of products to get you 95% of the way there.

Fair pricing — because good skincare shouldn’t be overwhelmingly expensive. If it is, they are charging for the brand, not the ingredients.

Clear labeling and honest claims — you’ll always know exactly what’s in our products, why it’s there, and why it will help.

rhave isn’t just a skincare brand. We aim to educate, take you from confusion to clarity. From neglect to self-respect. From over-complication to confidence. Our products are not the only ones out there that can help you, and we'll happily share that everywhere. Our products are made to make it easier for you to actually get started <3

 

Disclaimer: If you have some special skin condition you probably have been (or should be) guided by a dermatologist on what products to use and we recommend you follow their advise.
