Hey Guys!

Let’s get started!

Tip #1

Get Rid Of Dry, Rough Skin

(hands that are too manly, are not sexy!)

Tip #2

Improve the look of your Skin

(get the skin everyone woman wants to touch)

 

 

 

Tip #3

Minimize Wrinkles

(keep it tight & masculine) 

Keeping your skin exfoliated (scrubbed), and moisturized will do a lot to minimize and prevent wrinkles.

The real key to youthful skin, though, is your diet (and hydration, of course).

 

What not to eat:

• Cut back on meat and dairy products, which can age your skin. If you don’t think you’ll ever completely give up your “meat and potatoes” type of diet, you don’t have to. Just eat less meat (no more than once per day), and look for grass-fed animals, these are organic options.
• Skip coffee and caffeinated tea because they can dehydrate your skin, among other problems.
• Sugar and artificial sweeteners. Use Stevia or raw honey instead.
• Fried foods (this one’s a no-brainer, right?)

What to eat more of:

• Cabbage. It contains tons of vitamin C and some vitamin A, too, both of which help erase lines. It also detoxifies the blood, and the fiber helps push waste and toxins out of the body. Too many toxins in your body can actually show up on your face, making you look older than you are. Try eating some raw sauerkraut before dinner a few times per week.
• Eat, or drink, pears to get rid of nasolabial folds. Just be sure you use organic pears and eat the skin, since that’s where most of the anti-aging nutrients are.
• Watery vegetables or fruits help with hydration, which in turn will make your skin look more youthful.

 

 

 

 

 

Tip #4

Get rid of the under eye bags & dark circles

(the tired/wasted look is not hot! )

I understand that some eye problems can be a result of fluid retention, or stress (in addition to the more obvious lack of sleep) and not always due to partying.

Here is a way to flush out some of the fluid to improve the look of your eyes.

 

Munch on celery!

Celery works in two ways: it acts like a mild diuretic to encourage excess fluid to leave the body and it reduces stress hormones.

 

 

To attack problems from the outside, you can freeze spoons overnight and then apply them to your eye area every morning.

Chilled raw potato slices placed under the eyes for around 20 minutes can help reduce dark circles because they contain catecholase, a skin-lightening enzyme.

If you’re especially worried about aging and dry skin around your eyes, you can try an all-natural eye cream.

 

 

 

 

 

Tip #5

Whiten Your Teeth Naturally

(nothing say’s “Kiss Me” to a woman like beautiful white teeth)

Here’s another reason to lay off the coffee and black tea. They stain. Avoiding them will help you maintain your bright smile.

One of the biggest things women notice when they first meet a man, right after smooth, clear skin, is a gorgeous bright smile. It doesn’t matter if you’re male or female this is important.

Michelle Phan has a DIY recipe that uses strawberries to whiten teeth.

One word: strawberries.  That’s right – according to Michelle Phan and Health.com, strawberries contain malic acid, which acts as an astringent to remove surface discoloration on your teeth.  Next time your teeth need a pick-me-up, give this easy DIY treatment a try:

Ingredients:
1 strawberry
½ tablespoon baking soda

Instructions: 

1.) Crush the strawberry to a pulp-y consistency

2.) Add in baking soda until blended

3.) Use a soft toothbrush to spread the mixture onto your teeth

4.) Leave on for 3-5 minutes

5.) Rinse and brush thoroughly with toothpaste

6.) Floss out any stray strawberry seeds

 

NOTE: It’s best to apply this treatment only once a week – the acid can damage the enamel on your teeth if you overdo it.

No matter how often you clean your teeth, they can become stained from drinking tea, coffee, smoking, and eating certain foods. There are many different ways to whiten your teeth, but the cheapest and most common option is to use a whitening toothpaste: although it might take a little longer than other methods, it will give you a brighter smile in two to three weeks.

 

 

Tip #6

Manicures for Men

(Men with manicured hands are hot!)

Manicured nails look great on anyone!

When you’ve got black stuff crusted underneath your nails, your not turning any woman on!

When a woman encounters a man with uneven, dirty nails, she’s wondering where has that hand been?! 

Guys, this is not something you want.

 

Fortunately, you don’t have to break the bank to get yourself a good manicure. Your mother and your sister, if you have one, have been doing their own nails for years, and I am sure that they will gladly help you: all you have to do is ask. Plus, these days men go to nail salons to get their nails done all the time, so don’t think twice about it.

 

To enhance your well-manicured nails, a spot of clear nail polish or varnish will make them look even cleaner.

Tip #7

Manscaping

(all women like this!)

To shave, or not to shave is a matter of personal taste; if it feels right, then go ahead and do it, but if it doesn’t, then don’t. 

You can manage hair growth on body parts by trimming the hair now and then with scissors or an electric groomer, taking care not to endanger your chances of having children in the future.

 

If you do plan on removing unwanted body hair, read this article on manscaping for additional tips, there is also a video in the link for the first-timer.

Tip #8

Lose Weight with an Alkaline Diet

To lose weight, you need to give your body the best fuel, and eat foods that will help push the toxins out.Once you start to focus on whole, cleansing foods, your body will begin letting go of the fat that’s there to protect you from the chemicals and toxic waste you’ve accumulated from poor eating habits.Eat more foods that steer your body into a more alkaline state, which will help you drop the pounds more rapidly. Be sure to get more of these in your diet:

• Leafy greens (including sea vegetables)
• Ripe fruits
• Sprouts
• Non-starchy vegetables
• Alkaline-forming grains, like quinoa and millet

You may also want to consider having a gravity-centered colonic to remove some of that old, acidic waste (never use laxatives for this purpose).

Consider incorporating a high alkaline diet along with moderate exercise into your lifestyle. Also, eat less fried and sugary foods.

Being healthy on the inside reflects on the outside guys!

 

 

When you look good, you feel good, and you are oozing confidence. Then all that is left is to enjoy your life.

Method 1 of 2: Keep Your Hair Healthy

1.) Keep your hair moisturized. 

• Always use conditioner every time you wash your hair. 

• Look for conditioners that advertise the improvement of dry, damaged, or brittle hair. Apply the conditioner after each shampoo, and leave it in for 2-3 minutes before rinsing out.
• Use a deep-conditioner every 1-2 weeks. Leave it in for at least 20 minutes with a plastic conditioning cap, and then rinse out.
• You can make your own deep-conditioner at home. Although it may sound strange, mayonnaise is a wonderful deep-conditioner! Rub it into your hair, and leave in for 15 minutes. Rinse out the mayonnaise with your regular shampoo and conditioner. Repeat this every 1-2 weeks for ultra-soft hair.
• Try a leave-in conditioner. This is a special kind of conditioner that can be rubbed into your hair after showering while it is still damp. It does not need to be rinsed out, it will also keep your hair from getting greasy-looking or piece-y. This can be done after every shower or between washes, whichever works better for your daily routine.

Soothing Massage 2.)

Use oil in your hair. 

Since it takes such a long time for your hairs’ natural oils to travel to the ends of your hair, infuse your hair with oils to supplement those your scalp already creates. However, AVOID petroleum and mineral oils.

• Try using castor oil (or Jamaican black castor oil). This has been used for hundreds of years to increase the softness of your hair and aid in faster growth. Rub some oil between the palms of your hands, and run them through your hair to incorporate it to as much of your hair as possible.
• Lavender oil is not only made from a popular flower, but has shown to improve hair growth up to 44% when rubbed into your locks. Use the oil on wet or dry hair in addition to other natural oils to help expedite your hairs’ growth process.
• Moroccan oil is a new type of oil becoming very popular for its intense moisturization and de-tangling abilities. Although it can be pricy ($30 for a single bottle), reviews make it seem worth the cost. If you aren’t willing to pay that price, look for imitation versions for similar results at your local drugstore or beauty supply store.

Trim your hair when needed.

Take vitamins that boost hair growth

There are many supplements and vitamins available for oral consumption which help your hair to grow very fast. This is optional.

• Biotin is considered the best vitamin to take to boost hair growth. It is available in capsule form at many health food stores, or for purchase online. It helps to renew the cells in your hair, allowing the hair to grow longer, faster.
• Vitamin B6 is a great supplement to take to aid in hair growth, as it blocks the testosterone receptors at your hairs’ roots. Too much testosterone released into your follicles makes hair become thin and slows growth. B6 blocks some of this testosterone, to help your hair grow faster.

Protect the ends of your hair. 

• Keep your hair in a bun using bobby pins to help keep your hair in place. If possible, don’t use a ponytail or rubber band, as these can break your hair when you remove them.
• Braid your natural hair. This helps keep the ends of your hair from being exposed and damaged further. You can choose to do dozens of small braids, or a few large ones, but make sure you leave the ends free of ponytails so that you don’t rip out strands when you remove them.

Cover your hair whenever possible. 

• Use a satin scarf, as this material does not absorb oil like cotton and other synthetic fabrics do.
• Sleep on a satin pillowcase so that the oil from your hair doesn’t get sucked out while you sleep.

Try using a protein treatment.

• Protein treatments have the biggest positive effect in relaxed or treated hair, but can be used on natural hair as well.
• When you are looking for a protein treatment, read the bottle. If a type of protein (animal or plant based) is not listed in the first five ingredients, it probably won’t do much to help your hair.
• There is no difference between animal or plant based protein hair treatments.

Eat healthy foods.

• Salmon, avocados, and pumpkin seeds are full of protein and omega-3 fatty acids which help you hair follicles to stay healthy.
• Spinach, eggs, greek yogurt, and lentils are all great sources of protein which enrich the strands of the hair.
• Blueberries are a source of vitamin C which is important for strong hair. Too little vitamin C leads to hair breakage.

Method 2 of 2: Avoid Damage

Avoid The Use Of Heating Tools

• Allow hair to air dry whenever possible. The heat from blow dryers can be especially damaging, as it is combined with a strong blast of air – another culprit for hair damage. If you must blow dry your hair use cool air, not hot or warm air.
• Keep the use of flat irons and curling irons to a minimum. Because these can heat upwards of 400 degrees Fahrenheit, you are literally cooking your hair.

Steer clear of hair color.

Spread out time between hair relaxing sessions.

If you get your hair relaxed, you know how damaging it can be to your hair. Although getting your hair relaxed frequently may be tempting in order to maintain straight locks, try to wait as long as you can between sessions.

• Spending at least three months between hair relaxing treatments can help aid in hair growth.
• If you are able and willing, try foregoing relaxing your hair for a natural look instead. This will not only give you versatility in your hairstyle, but increase your hair’s ability to grow faster.

Avoid real-life stressors.

Be gentle to your hair.

Although sleeping and daily activity can make your hair difficult to manage, don’t try to control it through power-brushing and a strong hand. Instead, be soft-handed to your hair to ease out tangles and knots.

• Brush your hair slowly. This will help to reduce the amount of breakage your strands experience. Always begin brushing from the top, and work your way down. However when combing the hair do the opposite and comb from the ends up gently.
• Use a comb or boar-bristle brush to brush your hair. Avoid using a brush that has knobs on the ends of bristles, as these can get caught in your hair and cause more damage.

Avoid wearing extensions and tight braids
