Yep! I hate to break it to ya but metro-sexuals are now big in Dublin. I'm slowly becoming one.... I used a Sun-Bed at Tan.ie (Chartbusters) cos im going away soon and new to that i found myself putting on a MALE moisturizer after a shave last week. :eek: (It came with the new razor)

*Angel*

It's a little worrying, but it could be better than having pasty guys, although I don't really think I'd like it on a guy...a sunbed would be ok though.

Gillo

I was thinking of using it to give me abit of colour for the summer, btw my chest and legs are like a milkbottle; not just in colour, but hard on the outside and full of goodness on the inside ; )

But seriously I was thinking of trying it- prob is I'm afraid I'll end up all streaky. Any tips on applying it??

But you've brought up a good point, how come people get suspicious of guys who look after themselves. BTW looking after yourself involves more than spraying Gilette shaving cream on your face and hacking with a Bic or at best a mach 3. I stick to a pretty tight regime and could take up to a hour to shave if I go the whole hog.
When a friend heard this, he asked me if I wanted to come out?
Whats the prob with looking after yourself??

Dave

An hour for a shave! You have to be taking the piss. What do you do that takes up to an hour!

The Clown Man

Oh.

My.

God.

lateasever

there isnt a problem with looking after yourself
surely theres a line though..........
guys are becoming girls, and the whole world is image obsessed
including me, i used face cream for the first time the other day........and i liked it!!!!!! my skin was silky smooth all day long. im scared of what im becoming

Lamar

yea its happening........I see it EVERYWHERE i go..luckily for me I got a natural permanent one so no need to drop into chartbusters etc everyweek

Half-Bicycle

No harm in looking after yourself, at all. Who wants to be a smelly red-face wrinkled old sot? Maybe draw the line at the old fake tan, though.

The concern over whether or not it's effeminate to maintain your skin etc is ridiculous and probably masks a deep-seated homophobia. Maybe.

Dublin is becoming the home of metro sexuals.....
Whats with the lads and pink/yellow t-shirts and the "funky" hairstyles.

Bit sad really...

It's a phase, they'll grow out of it...

jesus_thats_gre

I would loose so much respect for any man who I knew worse fake tan..

padser

fake tan is purely for women, d4 heads and men who are unsure of their sexuality

Larianne

Guys if you have to, and I mean have to, get the spray-on tan. There's loadsa places you can get it done in town. Sunbeds are very bad for you! (you don't wanna get premature wrinkles on those pretty faces, now do you!) and you've seen girls who have tried to put on fake tan (looks more like some kind of skin disease). I doubt guys would be much better applying it.

The spray-on tan looks much more natural. Not sure about prices though. I prefer the pale look myself!

1; Scrub - Removes dead/stale cells and lets you shave closer's to the fresh skin
2; Face wash - clear the skin in preparetion for the shave
3; Apply face mask - The Real Shaving company do a pre-shave face mask, which is similiar to a hot towel shave, (not as good as the real thing, but it makes a real difference)
4; Apply shave cream - Palmolive shave cream applied with a Brush; old school but lifts the hairs for a much better shave
5; Shave
6; Repeat shave - This time with a shave cream (clinique Shave cream is great come from a tube instead of an areosol so theres no air and it gets closer to the skin)
7; Wash face - clear off any excess cream and cleanse the pore's
8; Face Pack - leave of about 15 minutes for a "deep pore cleanse"
9; Wash off
10; Apply mosturiser (how do you spell that word)


Ok, so it might sound extreme, but I've got an amazing number of compliments on my skin, so as they say the proof is in the pudding.

I know I'm setting myself up for abuse here thats how long it takes me. Guys, if you girlfriend went out on a Saturday night having just splashed a bit of water on her face, no cleanser, makeup and anything. what would your reaction be??

And I thought I was bad using the odd bit of exfoliating stuff in the shower. That is extremely sad man. Get over yourself.

juno75

gillo, man thats a bit much!!

Jeebus. I thought I was goin over the top getting a good razor and some decent get.
I get a perfect shave and Im a hairy bugger.

I recently discoverd moisturiser which is a life saver, not for how I look but it stops a rash on my neck Ive had for years.

Razor+Gel+Moistureiser=Good enuff for me.

Yup, too many girly men around these days

My name is Patrick Bateman, I’m twenty-seven years old. I believe in taking care of myself, in a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning if my face is a little puffy, I’ll put on an ice-pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack, I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water-activated gel cleanser. Then a honey-almond body scrub. And on the face, an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb mint facial masque, which I leave on for ten minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer. Then an anti-aging eye balm, followed by a final moisturizing protecting lotion.

.........and he kills people too

Töpher

Next you'll be telling me some guys are vergitarian!

That does seem awfully over the top gillo, may I enquire as to how long it takes to wipe your ass?

wiping my ass:

1.) Scrub: removes dead sh*t cells and lets you get closer to the fresh skin
2.) Ass wash - clear the area in preparation for the wipe
3.) Apply ass mask - The Real Sh*t company do a pre-wipe assmask, which is similiar to a hot ass wipe, (not as good as the real thing, but it makes a real difference)
4.) Apply ass cream - Palmolive ass cream applied with a Brush; old school but lifts the hairs for a much better wipe
5.) Wipe
6.) Repeat wipe- This time with an ass cream (clinique ass cream is great, comes from a tube instead of an aereosol so theres no air and it gets closer to the hole)
7.) Wash ass - clear off any excess sh*t and cleanse the hole
8.) Ass Pack - leave on for about 15 minutes for a "deep hole cleanse"
9.) Wash off
10.) Apply tissue

Ok, so it might sound extreme, but I've got an amazing number of compliments on my ass, so as they say the proof is in the pudding.

Well the expansion in your head size may cause a goatee to appear.

My boyfriend and i were shocked when we we came here first, ok we've come from a sheltered background, the cattle mart that is CP's in Galway, but come on guys!!

Yeah, but it's all pixeliated, my the Face Scrub leaves you all smooth, what gives.

Maybe it's because I'm self consious, maybe I'm actually vain (I don't go around thinking I'm Gods gift, I know I'm not), maybe it's a obsessive compulsive disorder, maybe I just take grooming a bit too far.

I choose to groom the way I do, I don't critisie you for been scruffy.

Gentlemans agreement, you don't slag me for looking after myself and I won't get pi$$ed off.

I would extend my hand to shake yours, but I've jsut had my nails done and you know how annoying it is, when they get ruined.

I 100% agree with " I am man". That is ridiculous. Thats actually going overboard. As for the fake tan thats strictly for women only. And a lot of them cant even put it on right. Theres nothing worse than seeing a woman with fake tan all over her face and a snow white neck. Irish arent supposed to be tanned so why not accept it.

On a very obscure point of history, the royals used to have ass wipers as it was unfit for Kings and Queens to wipe their own bums. The royal ass wiper (not sure what the official title was, more than likely something like master of the lavortory) was actually quite a high profile position because not any commoner could wipe the kings dingleberrys away.

But why are you reading a fashion / appearance thread??

100% Irish would mean people who are 100% Irish only had babies with other people who where 100% Irish. It's not that hard to understand really. I can whip up a diagram and maybe a video or two if you need that.
