Men invest way less time into looking good than women.
We tend to do just enough to get by, we don’t pay much attention to detail, and we, most certainly don’t think about the long-term effects of the neglect of our bodies. But there’re some amazing beauty hacks we should steal from women right now.
Women, on the other hand, have mastered this game. They take care of every single detail, they have different concoctions and creams for parts of their bodies men sometimes don’t even wash.
As sad as this may sound, you know it is the truth.
Let me just ask you a simple question, and I’m not even gonna go into the advanced stuff, like face masks or anti-aging creams.
When was the last time you applied some kind of oil to your hair?
The truth is, an average man just doesn’t use these kinds of things, even though they could benefit him greatly.
This trend needs to stop, and these simple hacks are the perfect starting point.
Hair masks
It’s no secret that women have some hacks they follow religiously when it comes to hair care.
What bugs me, though, is why men don’t. We all want to have great hair, and the moment we notice that our hairline is receding, we feel like our world is colliding. But why haven’t we taken any steps to at least try to make our hair healthier? Washing and conditioning a few times a week is just not enough. There’s a lot more to that. Women know it, and we should steal that precious knowledge.
If you have a girlfriend, chances are she probably has a jar of coconut oil laying around somewhere.
Coconut oil is one of the most beneficial oils for the hair. Not only does it work as a deep conditioner because it locks the moisture in, but it also prevents dry scalp, stimulates hair growth, and is likely to aid you in the battle against dandruff and hair loss.
Just steal a few scoops once a month, work it in your hands until it’s warm and spread it on your hair. Wait for an hour and wash your hair as you usually would. And that’s it.
It takes 90 seconds. So you might s well do it. You’ve got nothing to lose.
Baby powder as a dry shampoo
When your hair gets greasy and you’re in a hurry and don’t have the time to wash it, baby powder can really come in handy.
It’s a great substitute for dry shampoo. Just put some baby powder on your hair and work it in, preferably with a hairbrush and you can easily get an extra day.
Lip scrub
Chapped lips are not a problem to be neglected. And most of the time lip balm is not the perfect solution.
Not only do they look awful, they feel awful too.
And you wouldn’t know that, would you, because your girl doesn’t have chapped lips.
Girls use scrubs on pretty much their whole body because they know how important it is to remove dead skin cells. And lips are no exception.
That’s why their lips feel soft and silky smooth and yours look like they belong beyond the wall.
So if you want to avoid having Wight Walker lips, start scrubbing them.
Mix 2 parts of sugar with one part of coconut oil or vaseline and gently scrub. Remove the dead cells and when you’re done apply some lip balm, and that’s it.
Oil absorbs
Do you hate it when your face gets all oily and nasty?
Do you want a simple solution to this disgusting problem?
Oil-absorbing blotting paper. It comes in a package not a lot bigger than a pack of gums. You can keep it in your car, or in your pocket and have it handy, for whenever you need it. Just take one sheet, press it on your face, don’t wipe, and all that nasty greasiness is gone.
Don’t touch your face
Another hack to prevent an oily and shiny face is not to touch it all the time.
Once you’ve finished with your cleansing and moisturizing routine, you really should keep your hands off of it.
Touching your face transfers the oils and dirt from your hands and puts it directly on your face. Then your pores are clogged and your face looks and feels dirty and oily.
Keep your hands off of your face, and not only will your skin look healthier and cleaner, but you will also look better.
There you have it.
5 very simple hacks women use to ensure that they look pretty that can be easily applied to any guy’s life.
They’re just so simple and easy to apply, I dare you to find an excuse not to use them.
