Valentine’s Day is upon us yet again. Whether you’re single or taken this year, one thing is for certain: You need to look your best. We’ve compiled the best men’s skincare and nutrition tips to help you look good and feel great this upcoming V-Day. Take the following tips to heart to make a memorable impression on your significant other.
1. Avoid a hairy situation. Unkempt facial hair and body hair are big turn-offs for a lot of people. When shaving, use MenScience Advanced Shave Formula to prevent ingrown hairs, razor burn and other shaving-related skin problems in men. Following up with MenScience Post-Shave Repair is just as important for controlling redness and irritation. The tea tree extract, allantoin and other advanced ingredients in this men’s aftershave can help soothe skin and make it smooth to the touch for your date. “Get Rid of Unwanted Facial Hair and Body Hair” has more shaving tips for men.
2. Don’t stink, but don’t smell like roses either. The last thing you want is a scent that will clear a room. Use an unscented aluminum-free deodorant to avoid overwhelming your date’s sense of smell – a scented deodorant paired with cologne is overkill. MenScience Advanced Deodorant contains microzeolites that actually kill odor-causing bacteria; other deodorants merely mask their odor. Also, limit cologne to just 1-2 sprays. “7 Ways to Battle Body Odor” has more tips on smelling great.
3. Wear a mask. No, we aren’t talking about a Halloween mask – although that would be pretty funny (and awkward). We’re talking about a facial cleansing mask, which can help absorb the oil and other impurities that can clog pores and make pimples pop up to ruin your date. A few days before V-Day – or even the day of – apply MenScience Facial Cleansing Mask. The blend of clay and green tea will infuse your skin with antioxidants to leave your skin healthy-looking and refreshed. For help, read “How to Apply a Men’s Cleansing Mask.”
4. Chill out. Planning for Valentine’s Day can get pretty hectic. Supplementing your diet with omega 3 fatty acids can help you de-stress as the big day approaches. Omega-3s have been linked to improved mood levels as well as better cardiovascular health. Taking MenScience Omega 3 Supplement Formula provides your body some of the most pure fish oil fatty acids available for maximum effectiveness. To find out more about the benefits of omega 3s, check out “The Importance of Omega 3 Fatty Acids.”
5. Go out in style. MenScience Hair Styling Gel and MenScience Hair Styling Pomade can give your hair the maximum hold needed for a variety of hairstyles. Both men’s hair products contain top-quality ingredients that help nourish hair and provide firm control all day long. Best of all, these hair products are alcohol-free and won’t damage hair like other mass-market hair products for men. Check out our men’s hairstyle slideshow for some great haircut ideas.
