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!
GiphyIf 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!
GiphySo 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!
GiphyJust 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!
GiphyI 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!
GiphySo 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!
GiphyI 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!
GiphyLook 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!
GiphyI 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!
GiphyMake 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!
GiphyLastly, 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!
