Grooming Tips for Men
Grooming Tips for MenBy stephanie
.
Women give top priority to grooming themselves and ensuring they are perfectly well-kept with scores and scores of help from all over the place. However, men get the short end of the stick because they’re expected to not care about this stuff and be ‘rugged’.
We disagree, for a machine to run well, fuel is required and for you to look good maintenance is required. We know you might be shy of openly admitting to spending time primping yourselves but this can be our little secret. Here’s some makeover tips for you:
1. To Begin With:
Always keep your nails short and clean. Shoes and watches are a man’s pride and you’re judged based on these two things so ensure your shoes are well-maintained and polished. Find a watch that compiments you and spells classy at the same time.(We don’t mean expensive but just stylish!).
2. Exfoliate:
Everyday you expose yourself to dirt and grime and simply splashing water on your face does not clean it off which results in unhealthy looking skin. Spend some time every morning exfoliating your skin to wash off all the impurities for more glowing skin. Exfoliants are readily available for your purchase.
3. Moisturise:
It’s not just women that have soft skin, even your skin can retain it’s suppleness if you moisturise daily after exfoliation. You can even purchase a tinted moisturiser that will give you a slightly tan complexion.
4. Exercise:
We know you have long days and lesser time to sit back and relax but a runner’s high is not a myth. If you cannot devote some time to the gym at the very least wake up early for a long run, it does wonders for your body and you feel lesser lathargy. Your body looks good and when you start feeling more confident about your body, you look good.
5. Stay Crisp:
Always make sure you look sharp. Iron out your clothes always and ensure you spend a little time on dressing yourself. It’s not flattering to look like a homeless person. When you’re dressed well, your self esteem also peaks and it does wonders for you.
6. Jewelley:
Jewellery is not only for women but even men can carry it off if you pick out the right thing for yourself. Sometimes a simple platinum ring can easily class up your ensemble.
7. Floss:
We’re not just concerned about how you look but also about your health. Oral health is vital and so please floss so you can be confident to flash that million dollar smile.
8. Lips:
It’s ugly and does not reflect well on you if you’re walking around with chapped, dry lips. We’re not asking you to apply lipstick or shiny, flavoured gloss but just chapstick so your lips are conditioned.
9. Powder:
A little powder on those shiny, oily sweat zones will immediately make you look fresh so you can make a dapper entrance to wherever you’re going.
10. Facial Hair:
If you want a drastically different look there is no other way than to chop or grow your hair. Grow a beard for a more mature look or shave off all the hair to look younger.
You’re the best judge of what looks best on you.

Re: Grooming Tips for Men
I must print out that list and take heed of it Michael.Written by a woman naturally, I hope it keeps fine for her and she gets her ideal dream man.
I do agree with the clean short nails, dirty nails are disgusting but who polishes shoes nowadays?, most of them don't need it, a quick rub of a cloth does the job. What ordinary bloke in his right mind would walk into a shop and ask for a 'Tinted Moisturiser', if he was a celebrity OK, appearance are his bread and butter.
To hell with the Gym, do your own exercise in the privacy of your own home or garden. Stay crisp?, with that tinted moisturiser on your mug and your wrinkly face, you'll look like a crisp... a potato crisp, oh and don't forget the powder puff on your shiny bits, and a pink ribbon in your hair to set the whole thing off. Is she sure she's talking about a man?.
I have to laugh when I think back to the days when I was a toddler, when the subject of men came up and all her daughters were in the house, including my mother, my dear old Dublin granny would say "You girls don't know what your talkin' about, sure there's been no real men since the Boer War."

As long as he is clean and tidy that is fine. Heck as long as I am clean an tidy that is fine by me too. I spend very little time in front of the mirror, I don't want seven years bad luck!
