What is your routine?

-I was thinking about this yesterday as I stood naked and dripping wet in front of the bathroom mirror with my personal hand towel already at work. I started to think about how much effort I put into looking the way I do. As we get older certain things dont look as good as they used to, I am talking about the face area now!!, and even men are concered about wrinkles and the fun parts of aging lol. I even got a facial on the cruise and I soooo want to have another one!
-So anyone who wants to share what they do to make themselves ready to face the world please share.....

-I usually start my routine with and appricot exfoliante scrub, then I use a facial wash made by Elemis ( has to one of the best products out there..sorry L'oreal lol) , I never use any kind of soap. It dries you out and also removes all of your natural oils. If I am shaving that day I apply a shave oil by Elemis, again another prop to this wonderful product lol. I then turn on the shower to get it hot as hell, as I am waiting for it to warm up I scrub my body from head to toe with a rough brush to get all the dead skin off my body. It helps with ingrown hairs and get rid of all kind of other built up crap on you.
-In the shower I wash with a moisturized soap, regular soap makes me ichty. Now, with the shampoo I usually just use what ever the little woman bought which is usually Pantine. Wash rinse and repeat, let us not forget the conditioner now. The shaving oil is still on the face and the steam helps to get the hairs ready for the abuse it is about to recieve.
-Out of the shower I put my razor in cold water for a few minutes, cold water helps the blade retain its edge, and then I apply my shaving gel. After I am done shaving I use an after shave moisterizer with little to no alchohol, alchohol dries out you face making you look older. I always brush my teeth with a baking soda with whiting tooth paste. I flosh three times a week but sometimes more depending on what I have been eating.
- Throughout the day I use L'oreal Hydrafresh to keep the skin smooth and a face wash to keep it shin free.
-Every eveing before I go to bed I apply an anti aging cream, nothing to greasy though. I also put lotion on my feet to try and get these nasty man feet look a little better. I use this stuff that is for the feet and has all kind of werid stuff that tingles after you put it on. It is working but it sure is taking a long time to get through all that rough skin.
- On the weekends I used a peel away mask or clay mask to get a deep clean.

-Now anyone else wish to share? I have a few other things I do but they are not routine and not really worth taking the time to mention, like I used chapstick like it is going out of style. Women love men with soft lips, even though its only for one woman she is worth it :-D !
-And go to http://elemis.com/ and look around, they have to have some of the best god damn metro sexual products out there, and a shit load of stuff women love.

Good for you for taking care of yourself. My husband uses all of my products (that I make) but also a Vitamin C mask and scrub to keep the ingrown hairs from over-taking his face.
Manicures and pedicures are what he loves because he feels pampered. I don't mind that he does these things at all...
I think that it is so important for men to take this time with themselves... more women could learn this as well.

Sandi K said...

By the way.. You would be wise to switch from "Chap stick" to a natural product containing shea butter no wax. The wax causes a "dependance" on the product.. Thats why your lips get crusty as PB's thong when you don't yes it..

honkeie said...

-Jennay I didnt think you were nasty I was just messin with ya. Besides I like nasty ppl lol.
-A vitamin C mask hmmm that sounds interesting, I think I will go get me sum!
And yeah i think I need to get something on the lines of all natural, this chapstick doesnt seem to be workin very well on my lips.
