Level Up Gents

It’s a big turn off when a guy has gnarly nails with dirt all up in them.  Keep your nails trimmed.  Both your finger and toes.  The white of your nail should stay  minimal and a smooth edge.  If you are not skilled enough to cut them smooth use a nail file.  Don’t be embarrassed to go get your nails cut at a salon.  They’ll get all that jam out that you can’t get to and oh does it feel so good.  Should be only $30 for the manicure and pedicure.  Includes soaking, massaging, and moisturizing.

No more organic coke spoons please.

Does this look familiar?  Your wet towel left on the floor all day building up mildew.  Nothing more unattractive and sickening than walking into a guys bathroom with the stench of mildew hitting your nose.  Mildew is tough to get rid of.  Your best bet is to keep your towels from getting moldy in the first place.  Always hang them up to dry!

If your towels are at the place of no return- get new ones!  You can pick up a new set for cheap at Ross or Marshalls.  And don’t forget to have extra for when ones in the hamper or guests including hand towels for guests and yourself to dry your hands off.

Almost every guy I meet doesn’t take care of his face which is the first thing people see when they meet you.  Their daily care routine is using a bar of soap to wash their face and that’s about it.  No one is getting any younger here except maybe Benjamin Button so preventative care is important.  Here is a list of basic products every guy should include as part of their daily personal care routine that can be picked up at any drug store:

• St. Ives Apricot Scrub (use weekly- gently exfoliates dull surfaces to reveal smooth, radiant, healthy skin)
• Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser (formulated for dermatologists as a gentle, non-irritating cleanser for normal to oily skin)
• Neutrogena Triple Protect Face Lotion, SPF 20 (A lightweight non-greasy lotion that moisturizes and protects a man’s face in just one easy step.  Any moisturizer you choose to use should have SPF.)
• Aveeno Positively Smooth Shaving Cream (must use shaving cream not soap!)
• Reach Gental Gum Care with Fluoride mint woven dental floss (Can’t forget to floss.  Try to make it every day.)
• Crest White Strips (Keep them chompers pearly white.  Teeth are so important.  No one likes a yellow smile.)

These products or an equivalent will keep that face looking radiant and handsome.
