Saving Face - The Ultimate Male Skin Care Guide
Posted: Monday, August 13, 2007

UV Exposure
The sun is bad for your skin. You might like that summer glow, but make no mistake, you are doing yourself long-term harm. To ensure a lifetime of great skin it is imperative to protect yourself from UV rays. For most outdoor occasions, an oil-free SPF 15 moisturizer will provide ample protection. If a robust glow is essential to your look, the field of self-tanners has widened considerably - just be sure that your selection is oil-free.

Uni-brow
The first step in dealing with a uni-brow is admitting, “I have a uni-brow.” Good, we’re ready to move on. Shaving a uni-brow seems like the simplest, and therefore best option. Unfortunately, a shaved uni-brow can look quite foolish. If you can muster up the courage, waxing is the best recourse. If a monthly waxing session is out of the question, one might consider electrolysis for a permanent fix. Plucking is another option, but beware of misshapen eyebrows and irritated/infected skin.

Getting A Facial
Sometimes it is best to let professionals do their work. Even the finest skin care regimen can fall short of one’s desired results. Thankfully, your local groomer can provide you with an intense facial treatment. A typical facial is comprised of a light cleansing, exfoliation, chemical scrub, blackhead extraction, and skin toning. Equally valuable is the personal consultation from a skin-care expert who can help you create a custom daily plan to work for you. So what will this cost? A good facial treatment should cost between $100-$150; to pay anything more is absurd. A 20% tip for good service is customary and will ensure top-notch treatment in the future.
