Outer beauty pleases the EYE. Inner beauty captivates the HEART. But if you look dirty nobody will not want to see your soul. Our appearance tells about our habits, social status and our health. If you want to attract people, especially another gender you should first take care about yourself. It is not difficult. What do you need? Well, time, desire and a little patience. Last week we discussed extremal man selfcare stuff. Time to talk about necessary things.
If you try to keep off from beauty saloons you are making a mistake. It is not only women’s stuff!
Manicure & pedicure
Cut nails short enough, but not too much – the edge of the nail should coincide with the edge of the finger. Too short nails not only look unkempt, but may start to flake off. In addition, low-cut nails prevent you to perform all sorts of small but important operations such as to lace shoes. It is better to cut very thick nails with tweezers than scissors. It is desirable to cut nails after a shower when they are steamed. When cutting dry nail there a high risk of microtrauma. After nail clipping nail need to be treated – to get rid of notches, which are so unpleasant to cling to a thread on the clothes. I case of fungal infection you should use disposable nail files.
Wrong: Do not cut the excess skin at the base of the nail. The more you cut, the more it will grow over the nail. Find a good manicure artist and watch how to cut it – and you will be able to do this at home.
In no case do not shear with scissors calluses on the fingers or hands. As a last resort, after the shower arms can be carefully processed pumice. Do not forget after each hand washing to dry them. Otherwise, you risk to get the red chapped hands, and fungal infections.
Don’t be shy to undergo pedicure! Every woman oprish well treated feet!
Regular (once a month) nail treatment will protect you from ingrown nail, bad smell and infections.
Face
Before shaving, clean the face with soap and water. Or better use cleaning lotion, which is well defats the skin. Foam, cream or shaving gel, after applying on face, should be left there for at least one minute – active substance had to act on the skin. The hot water softens the hair, so the best time to shave – immediately after shower. Regular exfoliation helps not only to give a face more healthy and fresh look, but also protect from ingrown hairs appearance – often the cause of ingrown hair is too thick layer of dead skin.
Wrong: Do not try to “finish” the ingrown hair, smoothing it ten times with a razor. Take the tweezers. Do not wipe the remnants of the foam from face with a towel. You are not a movie hero, who had just find out the terrible news, and was so shocked that forgot about the need to rinse face after shaving with clean water. If you have a lot of facial skin inflammations, put away the shaver and buy single-use razor.
On shaver are a lot of bacteria, responsible for the further spread of infection.
If there is a sunny day and you’re going to be a lot of time in the sun, refuse cologne. Better use tonic or aftershave gel. Cologne has one unpleasant feature – under the influence of ultraviolet rays on the skin it leaves a dark stain.
If you want to grow beard, this post will be in use!
Body
“Oh, man’s body. You can be fit, you can be fat, but clean your body! And never use too much of cologne!” – said my old friend when one guy asked her, why she told him where to get off.
Everyday shower is not a luxury – it is your duty! At least get rid of bad odour.
Man’s skin is much thicker and coarser than woman’s one. Therefore, it has more pores which actively operates 24 hours per day. Oily skin with clogged pores are the most covered with acne. Small dark dots – comedones, densely located on the face, but the second their favorite place – between the shoulder blades. To get rid of them – use soap or shower gel with antibacterial effect. Twice a week, use scrubs, it will remove the dead skin particles that interfere with efficient self-cleaning pores. If you doing exercises, put on only the well-breathable clothes. Between the shoulder blades is the most of the sweat, which is a perfect breeding ground for the emergence of acne.
Wrong: If you allow your girlfriend to squeeze pimples on your back, it may end with inflammations and scars. If you want to cleare the skin on the back – do it only in the office of a professional cosmetologist. Oils and fatty lotions applied to the body after a bath, bring benefit only for people with dry sensitive skin. If you have oily skin, then the only thing which will get by such procedure – obtaining an abundant harvest of eels.
What is the conclusion? Look after yourself! And good cosmetologist is your best friend, as well, as good barber! And don’t forget regularly visit massage cabinet – probably, you need some relax!
Enjoy the life with JiJi!
