12 Grooming Products You Don’t Use – But Should

#http://blog.hair-terminator.com There comes a point in every man’s life when he stands in the aisles (and aisles, and aisles) of grooming products, squinting at the label on a mysterious bottle of fluid, with furrowed eyebrows and thinking ‘But what are exfoliating, anti-pore clogging

#http://blog.hair-terminator.com

There comes a point in every man’s life when he stands in the aisles (and aisles, and aisles) of grooming products, squinting at the label on a mysterious bottle of fluid, with furrowed eyebrows and thinking ‘But what are exfoliating, anti-pore clogging micro-bubbles?’

Male grooming is a burgeoning industry (worth around £15bn worldwide) and cosmetics brands are churning out all manner of confusing lotions, potions and tools at machine gun pace in a bid to entice us to part with our hard-earned. The problem is, some of it is about as much use as an inflatable dartboard. Some, but not all.

The key is in knowing the handful of products you’d normally ignore, but which offer benefits that’ll see you looking your best – without having to spend an hour in front of the mirror every morning.

To sort the skin-saving wheat from the it’s-probably-just-expensive-yoghurt chaff, here are the grooming products you probably aren’t using, but should be.

SPF Moisturiser

We all know moisturising is important, and we all know that we need to slap on SPF to keep ourselves from burning to a crisp. But few think to combine the two to protect against the everyday effects of exposure to the sun.

Harmful UVA and UVB rays don’t just exist around the pool – even on an overcast day, they’re at work sapping the skin of much-needed moisture, accelerating the ageing process and causing brown spots and wrinkles to form.

A good moisturiser loaded with SPF will keep your face hydrated and stop you from turning into a lobsterman, all without overcomplicating a morning routine.

Bulldog Protective Moisturiser, available at Superdrug, priced £8.40.

Anti-Ageing Eye Cream

A man’s age is always given away by his eyes. This is because the skin around our peepers is more delicate, so years of smiling and squinting imprint themselves here faster than anywhere else.

You can’t rely on moisturiser to undo the damage, though. Ordinary creams aren’t only insufficient, they can also cause the kind of puffiness that makes you look as if you’re always coming off an all-nighter.

The trick to outflanking the years is knowing the enemy. Tackling wrinkles? A moisture-rich cream is the best bet, especially one with an SPF that wards off sun damage. More bags than a Kardashian in Harrods? Then look for a gel, which tightens your skin quicker and gets straight to work on the blood vessels causing problems.

Clinique for Men Anti-Age Eye Cream, available at Clinique, priced £27.

Salt Spray

Thinning hair is a man’s worst worry, but you can take a load off by using a salt spray, which helps add a thicker feel to the hair while bulking it up.

As the name implies, this type of product is a combination of salt water and chemicals to protect your locks from damage that makes it look like you spent the morning catching waves, not the bus to work.

For best results, spray onto damp hair, style and then blow-dry in the volume and devil-may-care attitude, before finishing with a matte clay or paste.

Man Made No 1 Texture Salt Spray, available at Man Made London, priced £15.95.

Nose/Ear Trimmer

You can dress immaculately and have a hairdo so sharp it could cut diamonds, but if you’ve got black curly hairs sprouting from your nose and ears, then it’s all for nothing.

A dedicated trimmer for these unsightly growths is an absolute must. Unless you actually want cotton buds covered in hot wax shoved up there. Because we’ll find you, and we’ll do it.

Simply turn this (immeasurably less painful) bit of kit on, give it a bit of a waggle around up there and bob’s your uncle.

Philips Nose Hair Trimmer, available at Boots, priced £10.49.

Body Scrub

A good body scrub is the grooming product you never knew you needed, but won’t be able to live without. In short: it’s the easiest way to buff yourself, well, buff.

Lather it up and scrub away to stimulate the body’s lymphatic system, increase circulation and remove dead skin cells to result in healthier and all-round more handsome skin.

Just try to opt for something natural and without plastic micro-beads if you’re at all bothered about saving the planet.

Aesop Geranium Leaf Body Scrub, available at Mankind, priced £25.

Hand Cream

Despite David Beckham’s best efforts, for most men a ‘grooming regime’ tends to mean they now slather a moisturiser on after the razor’s done its worst. This means our other exposed extremities, namely our hands, are often neglected.

Hand creams are designed to work with the thicker skin around joints and knuckles, and are especially important if working in a manual job or are prone to dry spots.

Just apply a small amount, massage your hands together like Mr Burns and away you go.

Korres Guava Hand Cream, available at Lookfantastic, priced £9.

Face Serum

The proper products, applied with aplomb, can undo years of abuse from hard weather and harder living. A face serum is one of those that can seriously improve your skin.

Much lighter than moisturisers, on account of being made up of much smaller molecules, serums are able to penetrate much deeper and deliver targeted solutions such as dry skin, wrinkles and fatigue.

Granted they come with a higher price tag than traditional creams, but a small pea-sized amount goes a long way so they keep trucking month after month.

Lab Series Future Rescue Repair Serum, available at John Lewis, priced £48.

Cuticle Cutter

Nail care doesn’t just mean hacking away at half-bitten fingers once a fortnight with a pair of rusty scissors from the kitchen drawer. It means taking proper care and paying attention to cuticles too.

The cuticle is a thin sliver of dead tissue that sits along the bottom of the nail to form a protective barrier against germs. Because this has a tendency to peel off (read: guys tend to yank them off, causing them to bleed) is pays to keep them in check.

Simply use the right tool to nip the cuticles and follow them around until completely gone. You’ll be surprised at how much better your hands will look.

Tweezerman Gear Mini Hangnail Nipper, available at Feelunique, priced £12.95.

Face Mask

The amount men spend to appear better groomed than a Crufts prize-winner is still a pittance compared to the fairer sex, who – in the UK alone – buy products to the tune of around £17bn a year.

That said, a crossover has begun to emerge in recent years, with typically ‘feminine’ products becoming acceptable for use by blokes. Including face masks.

These proven skin savers and are one of the best tools available for cleansing pores deep down and preventing future breakouts, providing you buy according to your skin type. Simply slap one on, have a good laugh at yourself in the mirror for a bit and then relax. Oh, and don’t forget to take it off.

Anthony Deep-Pore Cleansing Clay, available at Lookfantastic, priced £23.

Night Cream

That cream you smear onto your mug in the morning is a start, but a before-bed re-up isn’t enough when your birthday cake is more candles than icing.

Unlike the abuse it endures during the day, when it’s tucked up away from sunshine and traffic fumes at night, the skin enjoys a spike in the oxygenated blood it needs to undo 12 or so hours’ worth of damage.

Coupling this natural rejuvenation with something night-time specific doubles down on this rebuild time and means you’ll wake up looking better than when you hit the hay. Opt for a product that’s especially moisturising as skin loses more water at night, so you want to keep it hydrated.

Lab Series Night Recovery Lotion, available at Boots, priced £35.

Leave-In Conditioner

Odds are you’re using conditioner wrong. Fine-haired men should avoid it altogether – it speeds oil’s already pacy travels along your hair, turning lively locks into a greasy mess by lunchtime. On the flip side, those with a mane like Aidan Turner should only be washing their hair every couple of days to avoid it drying out.

One across-the-board win is to swap your shower stuff for a leave-in conditioner. Most not only help to strengthen the hair, but have an SPF in them too, which fends off sun damage. Spray on when your hair’s still wet, then just forget about it.

Men-U Smooth Leave-In Conditioner, available at Men-U, priced £11.95.

A Scent-Free Antiperspirant

All men should have a signature fragrance. It’s the kind of thing that gets former partners misty-eyed when they catch a hint of it years after you broke up, an olfactory time machine that reminds them of you at your most intimate.

That’s not going to happen if your Terre d’Hermès is battling the smell of everything from strawberry shampoo to coconut face cream.

Always choose an antiperspirant or deodorant that’s fragrance-free. Not only will this minimise skin irritation, but it always lays the perfect foundation from an eau de toilette to work its magic.

Menscience Advanced Deodorant, available at LookFantastic, priced £19.50.

PSA: The No-Manicure Manicure is About to Replace Your Polish

Goodbye, nail art. We’re sorry to see you go, but there’s a new kid in town. The no-manicure manicure is here and it’s about to be really big.

I came to this realization while I was walking around the office last week. I noticed every super chic girl had bare nails. They were buffed and shaped, of course, but there was no polish in sight. Not even red. On the street I saw the same thing. Every stylish woman was rocking an invisible manicure. I knew I had to give it a go immediately.

Instead of hued polish, I’m gravitating towards nail perfectors, hydrating base coats and barely-there shades that leave a subtle shimmer in a single swipe. Finally, our nail routines are catching up to our skincare and makeup regimens.

Here’s what you need to know to join the new minimalist mani wave:

1. No more covering up.

To pull off a no-manicure, you’ve got to take care of your real nails. There’s no shellac, fillers or opaque polishes here… what’s underneath is where the beauty begins. To get long, strong and smooth nails, add these steps to your beauty line-up:

Buffing cream or scrub — This is basically a facial for your nails. The idea is to scrub away the residue from harmful polishes from your nail beds and cuticles. Reverence de Bastien is a really great option, but in a pinch, Aesop’s Geranium Leaf Body Scrub will also do the trick. If you’d rather not splurge, add a little coconut oil to your favorite face exfoliator. Voila.

Hydrating oil — To keep your cuticles in check, use an oil before bed or after polish removal. It will hydrate your nail beds, reversing the damage that’s been done from all those lights and toxic polishes. Any clean oil will do, but I especially love Maya Chia’s Super Critical Omega-3 Oil and Linne’s Balance Face Oil. I know, they’re technically for your face, but that just means they’re super gentle formulas. They’re nontoxic, too, so use them to the MAX.

Nail perfector — After buffing and hydrating and before any polish application, apply a nail perfector. These gems give your nails growth-stimulating nutrients, while hiding any blemishes like bruises, scrapes or ridges. Nails Inc’s Kale Base Coat is to die for, as is Deborah Lippmann’s Illuminating Nail Tone Perfector. Also, I can’t not mention Dior Nail Glow if you are into the perfect pink/ skin colored nail.

2. Stick to semi-opaque, cool tones or just clear.

If you use a nail perfector, you can often forgo polish altogether. But if you do like a subtle shine finish, opt for polishes that are semi-opaque and cool-toned. Stick to a single coat to keep color translucent. A few pinky-nude polishes buzzing around the beauty scene are Eve Snow’s Anti-Aging Nail Polish and Sundays No. 2 Semi-Opaque polish in French. Otherwise just throw on a really good top like the one from Smith & Cult’s Above it All top coat.

3. Invest in a good nail file.

When it comes to the no-manicure manicure, the nail file is your best friend. Why? Well, a big part of mastering this look is keeping your nails at a length that’s just right. Too short and they look unhealthy, too long and they can get a bit dirty. Swap your clippers for a file that will keep you shaped up. Reverence de Bastien makes a glass nail file and case that’s perfect for keeping in your tote at all times. The glass here is key — it’s gentler than the usual sandpaper-esque files from the drugstore, which will prevent your nails from splitting. It’s also got a slightly pointed tip, which will come in handy if you spot a little dirt under your nails.

P.S. The no-manicure trend doesn’t just stop at the fingernails. It’s also a thing for your toes! Read Annie’s story about her experience with medical pedicures for the 411.
