If you are too macho to be a metrosexual, no problem; you can still take care of yourself without making the marketers happy. We will tell you how:

Basic care tips for men

Remember the basics. One thing is not to be metrosexual and other thing is to be sloppy. Take a hard look at the condition of your shoes and clothing. Are they clean and in good condition? Always check before wearing.  (Related article:  How to be classy?)

If the clothes look too old or worn out, it is time to go shopping. If you do not like shopping, you can now shop online and shop for classic clothes such as jeans with a good cut, white shirts, and dark pants of good cut and material. Nothing substitutes quality.  Just because it is branded it does not always mean it has good quality. Keep this in mind before you purchase something.  (Related:  Body care for men)

If you are not sure what to buy, prepare yourself before shopping. When shopping online, do your research. Visit websites like MYNIPPON and read the opinions of experts. Cut out pictures from magazines or print images from websites that you like of clothes you like or people you like. These people can be any celebrities or people you know. Try on the type of clothes in the pictures. Other alternative is to request help in the shop from a personal shopper. In shops, such as Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus, the personnel are generally speaking well-trained and pleasant but this does not apply to most department stores. So be careful whom you ask. When shopping online at websites like Amazon, see if there any comments from others. Do not believe everything that is being said but it will help you make up your mind.  (Related article:  How to be a chick magnet?)

Ironing is not the most favorite activity among men, but ironed cloth look very good. So if you can send your cloth to the cleaners, please do; otherwise you must iron it yourself. A shortcut is to put fewer clothes in the dryer and get them out immediately after the cycle ends. Hang it for a while and it usually requires just a touch with the iron to look perfect. 

Basic face care

We are now going to tell you how to shave; you probably think that you know this and have your style but please do read once more. You will need a Skin Care Kit for Men.  Here are some tips once you are ready:

If you have a baby face

Clean your face at least twice a day with a face cleanser. If you use your regular soap you may be drying or irritating your skin. A face cleanser lasts for months because you only need a dab every time you use it.

Apply a moisturizer. After you clean your face, apply a cream to moisturize your skin so it does not feel dry. If you do this, your skin will look better and you will look younger for a long time. Apply with your fingers in circular motions without putting too much pressure; do not pull your skin.

If you want to go an extra step, use a solar protector; this is the most effective anti-aging solution we have at this time. Use at least once a day, preferably in the morning and after leaving work in the evening. The sun makes us old and creates spots on the skin.

Nothing is a worse turn-off to most women than men who have a nose full of blackheads. They look horrible, dirty, and show that this man does not take care of himself. If you have blackheads, remove them yourself or have a facial once every quarter or more frequent mini facials. If you keep your face clean and use a good moisturizer (without mineral oil), you will have less black heads.

You can remove the blackheads yourself once a week, if you do not wish to go to a spa. Here is what you need to do. After cleaning your face, apply some warm water (never hot) and try to gently press the areas where you have the blackheads; they will come out and you will see all the garbage you have been carrying in your face. After that you can apply cold water to close the pores. If you want to go the extra step, apply a facial mask after extraction. 

If you have a beautiful, manly face

Keep your hair in good shape; a good haircut every 4 to 6 weeks will keep your hair looking great. 

Keep your eyebrows in control. The eyebrows are the frame of our eyes. Their shape creates expression on our face. Few things will improve or damage your image more than the shape of your eyebrows. Bushy eyebrows cover your eyes and make your look un-finished and unpolished. Your hairdresser or an aesthetician in the salon can shape your eyebrows. Many hairdressers will do it at not extra cost, but an eyebrow shape with the aesthetician will make a big difference.
