TIPS AND TRICKS

How’s your grooming? Do you look suave or like you just got back from a backpacking trip in the Everglades? Here are three habits to make sure the former is always the case. 

1. Shave in the shower.
Because modern razors are built to withstand a stream of water, and because their guards are so good, you don’t need to hold perfectly still with the exact mirror angle to prevent nicks. What you will need: A good mounted mirror on your shower caddy or door, to make sure you get the tricky spots. 

2. Tweeze the brows and cut your nails.
If you’re tired and want to create an instant look of energy, it helps to have a clean look all around your eyes. Use your beard trimmer’s brow setting if it has one or DIY the nose bridge section with your wife’s tweezers to rid yourself of the dreaded unibrow. It should go without saying that your nails need maintenance as well. 

3. Drink more water.
So basic, so essential. And probably the single fastest, cheapest way to improve your appearance. Sleep restores and rehydrates your skin. When you miss out on it, doubling down on your usual fluid intake — with an emphasis on non-alcoholic, non-caffeinated beverages — can help give you back some of that healthy appearance.
