These days, shaving seems optional. A lot of ladies love men who have a five o'clock shadow, but this look doesn't work for everyone. Although it looks rather cool and rebellious, ironically, it only works if you've thought a lot about it. For example, there's a fine line between shadow and full-fledged beard, and if you have thick hair on your neck, that might not look so great.
Anti ageing creams work just as well on men as they do on women, but they can leave your face with an un-masculine looking shine. If you use these creams, you might also purchase a couple of cosmetics to take the shine from your face: a concealer and/or a light foundation powder or cream. While you're at it, you might choose one with sunscreen in it to protect your skin from sun damage.
It is important to use a shampoo that is gentle on your hair. Ingredients such as vitamin E are great for naturally strengthening and conditioning the hair follicles.
Don't be fooled by super fragrant shampoos, either. Be sure to read the labels, as these types of products can contain artificial ingredients that don't do much for your hair.
