Beauty Tip for Men

Back then, women took a lot more pride in their appearance than men.  Women care so much about their looks; their skin, hair, nails and even the way they dress. If a man goes after all these, people around him will take him to be someone who isn’t serious or he is the only male in the midst of female siblings. Back then, some men could go out without combing their hair, without looking neat or attractive. What men did for their beauty routine back then was to have a quick shower and shave, a dash of aftershave and a spray of deodorant, brush their hair and they are good to go. But today, a man is expected to look like his looks are not an afterthought. Male grooming these days is on a par with the female grooming routine, because they are taking a lot of pride in their appearance and also want to look great when they go out to the public. There are many new products that aim at making a man’s skin look smooth and glowing, from well-manicured nails to a cream that also removes excessive hair and also doesn’t make them to have bumps after shaving.

If you haven't caught up with the times in terms of grooming, read on to discover what you may have overlooked.

Look After Your Eyes

One of the first things people notice about you is your eyes. They check to see if they are as white as snow or red as blood. Having eye-bags indicates sign of aging, stress or lack of sleep. To avoid dark circles and bags around your eyes, try using a hydrating eye cream. Just a dab a day will do you. And always make sure you sleep a minimum of 8 hours a night so that you don’t wake up looking like a zombie.

Shaving Tips

A lot of ladies love men looking good without having hairs all over. Even if you want to keep hair on your jaw, make sure it is well trimmed. Or better still, just shave all and when you are about to shave use a cream that will prevent bumps from appearing on your face. You will surely look the attention you will get from ladies.

Manicures for Men

Manicured nails look great on anyone. When you have got black stuff under your nails, people will wonder where your hand have been and will just conclude you are an unkempt man. You don’t have to break the bank to get a manicure; ask a lady friend or even your sister for help. To enhance your well-manicured nails, a spot of clear nail polish or varnish will make them look even cleaner.

Exfoliate

If you really want your skin to look as beautiful as it did when you were a boy, you are going to need to exfoliate. When you exfoliate, you are essentially eliminating dead skin cells from the surface. And who wouldn’t want to do that? Exfoliating you skin daily will also prevent black heads, acne, and ingrown hairs from appearing. There are good facial and body scrubs that will help. Just go to the market and get one for yourself. Using a good sunscreen will also protect your skin from the sun.

Eat Well

This is one of the most important beauty tips for men. Yes, you are what you eat. Men like hanging out to have fun with friends and will probably end up drinking, smoking eating some junk food.  You might think it is all fun, but as you are getting older it will catch up with you. Your diet affects your skin hugely. Junk food and alcohol are responsible for toxins that create blemishes, spots, boils, dry skin, wrinkles and so much more. Once you start eating the right things and drinking lots of water, your skin will start to look as smooth as a baby’s. Eat vegetables and fruits and you will definitely look younger than your age.

Moisturize 

Having a dry, dull and flaky skin can be embarrassing. Some men don’t like to moisturize because they feel it is only women that go the extra mile to care for their skin. Why suffer with itchy and unattractive skin for so long when you don’t have to? There are good and nice creams that will bring the shine to your skin. All you have to do is get it and use it at least twice a day after your bath.

Hair Care for Men

Regardless of your hair type, it is important to use a shampoo that is gentle on your hair. Using herbal soap or ingredients such as vitamin E is great for naturally strengthening and conditioning the hair follicles. Make sure that you read the labels before using a shampoo because some of them may contain ingredients that might not be suitable for your hair.  Also, use a conditioner that will maintain the well-being of your hair and stop it from drying out. There are fruits that are good in making your hair look healthy, soft and silky; make sure you eat them.  Make sure you also have a good hair cut that will make you look presentable.

Look After Your Lips

This beauty routine is important for everybody. Chapped lips will make you look like someone who is sick. If you want to slow down your lips aging process, make sure you scrub it. You can use sugar mixed with honey or olive oil to scrub, or while you are brushing your teeth you scrub your lips with your toothbrush. Do it in a gentle way so that you don’t end up getting bruised.  Applying lip balm will also keep your lips from getting dried, and look hydrated; plus drink a lot of water too.

Teeth Whitening

No matter how you clean your teeth some flaws are bound to be seen. Our teeth get stained from so many things, such as taking coffee, smoking, drinking and eating chocolates or sweets. There are many different ways to whiten your teeth, but the cheapest option is to use whitening toothpaste: although it might take a little longer than other methods, it will give you a brighter smile. Always adhere to the rules of brushing twice a day, that is morning and night and also visit a dentist once every month.

Fresh Breath

Having whiter teeth doesn't always mean that you have fresh breath. You can add a good mouthwash to your beauty routine. Mouthwash has the advantage of getting to the parts of your mouth and teeth where the brush cannot reach. Regular use of mouthwash leaves your breath fresh and mouth cleaner. You will not want people to have a look on their faces because of your foul breath, do you?

Men's Clothing

Whether you are going out to a formal or casual event, make sure that you wear a neat and well ironed cloth. Cleanliness is next to godliness they say; if you have worked on all of the other care tips above, you could spoil it all by having poorly washed or pressed clothes. And don't forget the shoes too, which should be well cared for and polished. If you wear a clean and ironed cloth and end up wearing shoes covered with mud or half torn, that will bring a bad image to your personality.

Have Fun!

You look good, you feel good, and you are oozing confidence. All that is left is to enjoy all the attention you will get when you do all these beauty routines.
