Top Ten Grooming Guide For Men
The evolution of man continues.
The new evolution of man is confident, stylish and masculine. So here are the top 10 male grooming tips so you too can experience the benefits that good male grooming can bring. The evolution of man continues…
TIP #1 GET A SKIN CARE REGIME
If you don’t always act your age, why should you have to look it? A simple skin care regime, face wash, facial scrub and moisturizer can really make a difference.
TIP #2 KNOW YOUR SKIN TYPE
So that you can get the most from your skin care regime use products designed for your skin type. For example, if you have oily skin you want to be using an oil-free moisturizer and if you have sensitive skin look for a moisturizer with built in sun protection. The well groomed man should have a clear, clean complexion.
Invest in a shave brush, use a good quality shave crème and apply it with the brush.
TIP #3 EYES ARE ALWAYS THE GIVE AWAY
Whether it be your true age they reveal or the fact that you were actually out last night and not working on that report! Use a specialist eye cream to get rid of puffiness and any tell tale wrinkles, and hey presto no one need ever know the truth!
TIP #4 WATER
If you want great looking healthy skin drink plenty of water. At least 1.5 liters per day.
TIP #5 A WELL GROOMED MALE NEEDS TO LEARN HOW TO SHAVE PROPERLY
The art of the perfect shave is disappearing fast. Shave after a shower or use plenty of hot water. Don’t use a disposable razor. Use a good quality razor, a Mach 3 or a double edge razor. Invest in a shave brush, use a good quality shave crème and apply it with the brush. Shave with the grain and always apply a non- alcohol based balm to finish. If you’re grooming a beard, get it done by a barber. To remove a beard try shampooing it in the shower first, then use clippers and finally shave.
TIP #6 MALE BODY GROOMING IS ALSO ESSENTIAL
Shower every morning and when necessary, use a body wash not regular soap to avoid drying out your skin and use a good antiperspirant deodorant to help regulate sweat through out the day.
…make sure you clean your teeth twice a day, use a mouth wash and don't forget to brush your tongue to keep your breath smelling fresh for longer.
TIP #7 GET A GOOD HAIR CUT
One that suits both your face and your hair type. Not sure what the latest fashion is or what will look good? Book an appointment at a salon, not your local barber. And get advice from those in the know. If your hair is thinning keep it short and please no comb overs! Eyebrow grooming for men falls into this category too.
TIP #8 EAT A HEALTHY BALANCED DIET AND GET SOME REGULAR EXERCISE
Keep your intake of fast food to a minimum and eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Not only will you feel better and have more energy, but it will improve the look of your skin and your hair.
TIP #9 EVERYONE NOTICES A KILLER SMILE
So make sure you clean your teeth twice a day, use a mouth wash and don’t forget to brush your tongue to keep your breath smelling fresh for longer.
TIP #10 GET YOURSELF A MANICURE
Or at least keep your nails trimmed and clean. After all, your hands are always on show. And please no finger nail biting!
