10 Things That Every Man Needs To Feel Great About Themselves

In This Article:

So, I got a complaint that I don't post enough for the men so here we go, here are some tips when it comes to men taking care of themselves.

1. Get the facial hair right!

If you have a beard or facial hair, it is okay to keep up with it. For example, I know that there are many products at lush that help keep up with facial hair. I did some research on their website and was able to find that there is a product called "Kalamazoo" which is a facial and beard wash.

Kalamazoo helps keep facial or beard hair fresh, soft, and clean.

2. Fix ya nails!

So the topic about men getting there nails and toes done has been talked about for a while. Men, it is okay to get manicures and pedicures, it is okay to want to take care of your nails and toes. I know many men have different outlooks on this but you don't have to get your nails or toes painted, but it is okay to keep up with them and keep them clean.

3. Masks are key!

Just like I would tell anyone else, face masks help so much. That means exfoliation, removing the dead skin, finding face washes that work for you, keeping up with your skin, and developing a skin routine. Once you develop a skin routine and stick with it, just watch how you begin to glow and how much your skin will clear up.

Now I'm not saying you have to have an over the top skin routine, but investing in at least a face wash is important.

4. You should already know!

I say this to the ladies so please know that I am going to tell the men. MOISTURIZE! That means to get into the cracks of your hands, put some oil on your head, and throw some chapstick on those lips. Find an oil-free moisturizer for your face to keep the breakouts away.

5. Hair gotta stay clean!

So just because some men don't have a lot of hair DOES NOT mean you don't have to take care of your hair. That means, wash your hair daily, put light oil your hair to keep it shining, do hair mask to keep your hair soft and to keep the pattern of the texture.

6. Confidence!

I said this to the ladies before but everyone could use this. Confidence is key, how you carry yourself is important. That means whatever hairstyle you have, or style you like, have confidence behind it.

Carry yourself with your shoulders high and rock your style.

7. Look out!

Look out for the products that you use. I saw a tweet on twitter that said "all boys have to do is wash their face with hand soap and they have clear skin," but that is not always true. It is important to know what products to use. No matter if it is for your skin or hair.

8. Wax away!

I don't know why boys or men find this weird but it is okay if you want to get waxed. That means if you want to wax your eyebrows in order to keep up with them, then do that. It hurts from time to time but I bet you will like the results.

9. Stay well!

Make sure that you are staying hydrated and doing everything you need to do mentally and physically. That means drink water, eat the right foods, take mental health days. Do what you need to do in order to prosper in a positive way.

I think sometimes we as people, especially men forget to take care of our bodies physically, and mentally. Just remember to take care of yourself.

10. Bye dark marks!

Lastly, I just wanna touch on dark marks because I sometimes see men struggle with dark marks. Dark marks are normal and everyone gets them. Dark marks can come from many things such as popping pimples.

But there are so many at home DIY's that you can do in order to remove or reduce dark marks. If you download the app "Pinterest" and search "how to remove dark marks" so many ways to remove them will show up

So there you go, it is easy men, it just takes a little effort. So go out there, take care of yourself, and be great!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
