It's All About The Groom

As we all know women should always take pride in their appearance, but so should GUYS! it's not just about the clothes, it's about a lot more.. Here are a Few Tips Fellas:


Male Grooming 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 moisturiser can really make a difference.

Male Grooming 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 moisturiser and if you have sensitive skin look for a moisturiser with built in sun protection. Every well groomed man should have a clear, clean complexion.

Male Grooming 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 tail wrinkles, and hey presto no one will ever know the truth!

Male Grooming Tip 4

If you want great looking healthy skin drink plenty of water at least 1.5 litres a day. DRINK UP!

Male Grooming 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 and 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.

Male Grooming 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.

Male Grooming 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, see our article on eyebrow grooming for more details.

Male Grooming 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 fruit and vegetables. Not only will you feel better and have more energy but it will improve the look of your skin and your hair.

Male Grooming 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.

Male Grooming 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!
