It’s not all about lotions and potions…

Over the years, my relationship with my skin and body has changed. During my teens and then again in my late twenties I was plagued with acne. I have suffered from eczema and struggled with hair removal.

Then, as I reached my thirties, I started to get fine lines and the odd grey hair. Cue, googling how to make myself look and feel ten years younger.

As a result of my various skin and body ailments, I have read countless articles about what creams and lotions and potions I should and shouldn’t be using.

I have tried a variety of these lotions and potions, not to mention a dose of Accutane for my spotty skin.

Now I’m a little older and wiser, I realize I’ve learned a lot of my most useful, and simple, skin and body care tips from the men in my life — not from websites or beauty books or hardcore salespeople.

Let’s go through some of my favorite, and very cheap, beauty tips from some beautiful men.

1. Use men’s razors

Women’s razors suck. There, I said it. They might have fancy colors and lotion on the end and whatever else, but you cannot beat a men’s razor.
