Do you take good care of your looks?

[MissAnne]

Yes, but nothing too fancy. I wash my face every night and day with some type of cleanser from Clean and Clear or a generic face wash. Every once in a while Ill leave a face mask on but thats rare.

Id like to believe that it keeps acne away.

[JustMe5]

I used to wear sunscreen when I was in college, but that was because I used to walk home from school in the hot sun. Overall I've always had pretty good skin, and I never wore moisturizer. Now that I'm a few years from turning 40, lines have already started to appear on my face. So I've had to resort to using a moisturizer. That said, despite the tell-tale signs of aging, I still look remarkably young for my age. When I meet someone for the first time and I tell them how old I am, I always get the "Really? You look younger!" reaction from them.

[ronboy]

As far as keeping clean, yes.
As far as exercising and keeping the fat off, no.
I am told that I look okay for a man my age.
I know that I can do better.....

[nycguydowntown]

use Nivea products--have for a long time---the male line of products of course

[dereperez]

I keep fit by watching my diet (mostly, sometimes I cave in and say what the hell) and exercising regularly (I love bball and tennis, so that helps). The only product I use is hair gel, and the occasional chap stick if my lips get dry. Basically just good hygiene.

[thatgirl]

So do you take care of you face, skin or your looks? Do you use skin products and what not?

I try to keep it simple and natural these days for skin and hair:

-Jojoba oil and Extra Virgin Olive oil for moisturizing face + body + hair.
-Extra Virgin Olive oil, sugar and lemon scrub for exfoliating body.
-Wash face with warm water then cold water (to close pores). If I want to exfoliate/tone, I soak a green-tea bag in hot water and gently rub down my face when it is warm to the touch.

Ngl, I get weirded out by lathering on lotions/face creams filled with all these strange chemicals and then just letting them soak in. :/

[CupidBoy]

Very much so, at night I put vitamin e oil on my face before bedtime too.

[BFizzle]

This thread feels appropriate to ask about eye masks. Does anyone wear one for under eye bags?

I've been considering buying one but I don't know if they actually work. And I refuse to even be seen buying Preparation H.

[birddog7]

I have no 'looks' to take care of.


*or should that be, 'of which to take care'?

I know the feeling all too well. Not much for me to take care of in the looks department. I'm not handsome, and my physique is poor. Thank you genetics...

That said, I try to eat a reasonably healthy diet, I do exercise (cardio and weight bearing), I'm clean, and reasonbly neat in apperance. I don't use any skin care products other than moisturizer. I get dry skin so bad during the winter I can't stand it without some moisturizer every couple days. Not that any of this has done much for my looks, but I hope it will help me to maintain good health until death.

[CupidBoy]

Wish I could help you with your under eye bags sis, but I just don't have that problem.

There are still virgins? ... in Amsterdam?!!!

There are quite a few around, especially men. Being an aspy helps.

i know... the blood of old virgins always has this nasty whif of celery.

I wouldn't know.

If you ever have to buy something embarrassing try to shop where they have a self check out lane and then buy something else to hide it under in your cart.

[Sparky-Sparky-Boom-Boom]

Yes I do I take pride in looking after myself though its hard work and there's day i just think why the fuck lol.
but in general its just routine for me as my back ground is a dancer.

[LilBit]

I've tried a lot of different products, and so far nothing seems to keep my oily skin in check. My complexion is pretty good, especially considering the horrible acne I had in high school, but I can't keep my face from glistening.

Other than that, I've seriously improved my diet in the past year or so, and I've lost a lot of weight. I walk regularly, including a three-mile walk between home and downtown Chapel Hill at least three times a week. Now that I'm in my thirties, I've also been trying to dress more like an adult and less like a grad student. I keep my beard neat, and I'm pretty meticulous about my hair.

[AshyPhoenix]

I MUCHLY approve of the new avatar.

LOL! I actually think the spread that sh** one was pretty funny. But this is even better lol.

I had to take down the "SPREAD THAT SHIT" one because of JUB's policy on no pics of underage people. It was my mistake.

I like the new one better.

[cgymike]

Not really except I do eat healthy - no red meat or pork. But I'm old so my face is hopeless and obviously I'm not 20 so the "great rage of looks" is long past thank goodness. Pity those who haven't gotten through that "special agony"...it awaits you.

[-Callum-]

No. I've been blessed with clear skin so I've never had an acne problem. Pretty thankful for that. I get a haircut every now and then. I shave. I keep my pubic hair trimmed. About it.

I don't use any particular product for any particular area/need.

[loveguys72]

I shower daily with plain soap and water. The end.

[cgymike]

What kind of soap? DO you exfoliate? Do you use a washcloth? Loofa? Other? Do you have filtered water? What is the temperature of the water? Do you immerse your face under the water? Do you have a rain forest shower head? Another type of shower head?

Oh...nooo...it is just the beginning....

Showering is a universe unto itself with thousands of aspects and possibilities and permutations.

[loveguys72]

It's just a standard shower fueled by the regular municipal water supply. I use whatever soap is on sale. No loofas or anything else. The water is on the hot side, because I'm a thermophile.

I leave the lotions and potions to the womenfolk.

[GamerBear]

People say I look 20 years older. Must be facial hair.

"Hi..I'm 20 but look 40...please can I be your sugar daddy"

You might want to try going "soapless". It improved my complexion immensely.

What do you mean by that "great rage of looks"?

To answer the OP: I try very hard to keep my height/weight proportionate. I hover around 175lbs, not bad for a 5'11", 50 year old man.

Wash with Jojoba oil - this mimics skin oils so that your skin doesn't over produce them, it's natural and works great.

Also Menaji do an 'anti-shine' powder which is great if you're out all day and need to reduce the oilyness!

Hope this helps

[blackbeltninja]

My skin is terrifically sensitive and prone to dermatitis. I have to use cleanser or baby soap, both of which are soap free, otherwise it breaks out in dry patches.

The only other thing I use is a little moisturiser since I am outside a lot and when I am indoors at work it is in a highly dry and overly air-conditioned sterile environment, which beats the crap out of my skin.

I have a few friends (female) if didn't sleep properly or overnight rush assignments would have huge dark green-ish eye bags the next day that make them look like Pandas!

Anyways, I heard for it to work you also need to consider the factor of getting proper sleep and sleep time. Apparently they accumulate over the times that you have stayed up late / improper sleep. (In which I am doomed at coz I have messed up sleep time since I was 14)

You can always go early to buy them or ask a female friend to buy it for you I know girls always buy skin products for each other.

[holeconfusion]

I brush my teeth.

I shower with soap.

I wash my ass and balls in hopes that someone will show them attention.

I exercise enough to get by.

[ParisZ]

Haha, are you guys serious? Almost sounds cute! I mean, I go to the skincare section all the freaking time I pick up products and even makeup to myself and others, but hey, guess I'm not a "guy's guy" anyway, which makes it effortless for me to do such things

[geloge]

Only washing and sun protection in summer.

Maybe when I got some more time I'll start going to the gym again.

[xbuzzerx]

Once a year I commune with nature and make myself a cocoon of vine-ripened tomatoes and palm leaves filled with oatmeal and passionfruit extract. When I emerge I have aged chronologically backwards 4 years. I plan to stop when I'm 13 days younger than youfiad.

[mitchymo]

Not really no. So long as i don't look like i've been dragged through a hedge backwards when i leave the flat, i don't much care.

[loveguys72]

My kind of guy right here!

Not really no. So long as i don't look like i've been dragged through a hedge backwards when i leave the flat, i don't much care.

sorry, couldn't resist.

Eh, you watch that mouth of yours, i know its big, what with being Jaws n all, but still...

[FlimFlam]

I take such little care of my looks that I sometimes wonder if I'd look completely different if I actually tried.

I just shower every day (most of the time)

[Scealle]

You don't need to go to gym, Gym rats are overrated. You look drop dead sexy as you already are

Lol! Pho reallllz? Tough competition though

Not really no. So long as i don't look like i've been dragged through a hedge backwards when i leave the flat, i don't much care.

I have never styled my hair with Gel or anything ever since I was like 11. People always thought I just woke up on a windy day.

I started to go for health reasons but it improved my body also.

you should take care of that

[JohnJay201212]
