The ultimate guide to men’s grooming.
Level 1
If it’s your first time to try a skincare product and you basically have no idea where to start from.
First of all, it is important that you know your skin type well. Try wiping the toner on your face. This is the simplest way you will be able to know your skin type. Cleanse your face first and apply the toner about 3 to 4 times consecutively. If your skin feels strained afterwards, your skin is probably an oily skin. If your skin feels soft like a peel of the peach, your skin is probably a dry skin.
The most important step of the skin care is the cleansing. Men usually apply the cleanser on their face as soon as they squeeze and put it in their hands. It is important to make enough bubbles before applying it on your face. Especially, it is important to thoroughly cleanse and rinse the area around forehead and T-zone where sebaceous glands are concentrated, and around your mouth where frequent troubles occur due to shaving.
Furthermore, it is certainly important to manage and have the proper keratin treatment. It is better to clean it up with the wiping toner once a day rather than the aggressive exfoliating.
Level 2
Sun cream? Sun block? If there are so many sunscreen for you to choose one.
There are basically two types of sunscreen.
Physical blockers that physically scatter UV-rays using inorganic substance: it forms a film on. The skin, preventing ultraviolet rays from penetrating.
A chemical blocker that absorbs and destroys ultraviolet rays by chemical means using an organic substance: the chemical components, that are applied and absorbed into the skin, will absorb ultraviolet rays by reacting with it.
If you have a sensitive skin with you having to do frequent outdoor activities, use the physical blocker. If you frequently stay indoors or have low sebum secretion, you should choose the chemical blocker. In fact, men often work indoors, but on weekends they often enjoy sports and leisure outdoors. Hence, it is recommended for you to have both of the products.
Level 3
When I put on a skin make-up product, it is too obvious that everyone will notice it.
Even men who do not know how to make up might have heard of BB cream once. BB cream is a cosmetic product that is lighter in texture than foundation. Though the texture of BB cream is lighter than foundation, the texture of face will look so obvious that you put on a makeup and look unnatural for men. A better way to do it is to cover the area, where enlarge pores are formed for example, you want to cover with a concealer. Or use a cushion to organize your entire skin tone. It will look much more natural and cleaner.
Level 4
Eyebrows have a huge impact on how you will be perceived by others.
Once you draw your eyebrows, you will most likely to consider eyebrows as the most important part of your face. Eyebrows, also called the roof of the face, control your facial expressions and impressions. At first, I recommend you to find the shape or type of eyebrows that are suitable for you. Compare to women, men often have thick and tough eyebrows which will become darker after drawing eyebrows. So, use the brow that the color is not too strong or dark. You should draw it lighter towards the tail of the eyebrows and lightly fill up the eyebrows that look empty. You will have the natural eyebrows that look perfectly nice for you.
Level 5
The place where the eyes go first, hair.
Hair is something that you can give the biggest change easily. When choosing a hair-related product, you should first check if it is a hair loss prevention product, and secondly, whether it is easy to clean after applying it to your hair. It is not only because of hair loss, but also the scalp and hair treatment is really important. You don’t want to face a hair loss as you get older, right? The waxes and spray that contains better ingredients rather than the chemical ingredients are generally easier to clean.
