The MAN-icure
Even you guys need to be pampered
Yeah I know, you're asking why did a chick make a men's beauty page right? Well because on occasion I do spy & pick up one of you guys magazines (usually only if a favorite actor is on the cover or there's an interview with one inside). There are some suggestions and I will keep adding as you tell me your tips & tricks for others. (Really this is a 2 way street, I do need some hep from you gentlemen out there!) I also have some product suggestions of my own, at least those I have heard of and one in which I LOVE... I use it as an air freshner on occasion! Cool Water Cologne~
If you have tips for grooming, certain colognes, products etc? Please leave them in the Guestbook & comments section or you can contact me directly if you click my picture in the upper right hand corner of the page.
COLOGNE
*try medium to light scents, you don't want your dates (or wife) to be choking on that overly musky scent.
*if it's a spray spritz no more than 3x. Even if it's a light scent you don't need to smell like you took a bath in it.
if it's not then when you put it in your hands rub together (being most Perfumes & Colognes are full of alcohol this will evaporate some of it for a longer lasting scent) Spread the scent a bit on your neck, chest & arms.
*Did you buyor win a cute plush animal for your date, girlfriend or wife? Put some of your cologne on it it will make them think of you every time they smell it.
want a cool calming scent to wear? Try Cool Water
(also see Beauty Balm's Shower section)
Etiquette
Don't make that atrocious Hack-a-lung noise. Its gross leave that for the bathroom.

Fashion
Of course you guys have some fashion
to start out.... here's the The Man Bag
Body bits
The dove I included because its a 2 in one Body & face wash.
The Axe detailer is for washing those tough parts as well as any others
Lubriderm I chose because its for body face & an after shave type lotion. I personally use the regular Lubriderm oat Extract version which I also double (on occasion) as a facial moisturizer as it is Non-cominogenic so it will not clog your pores!
and there's of course the Axe body wash or try the Lush line for men
