7 Beauty Hacks For Men
Robin Albert

Alright boys, this one is for you. We love ya, with all our heart, but sometimes you are lacking in the health department.

Don't get me wrong- sometimes you dress up real nice and smell real good and look on point.

But when us ladies get our mani/pedis, soak in a bath after a long day, or treat ourselves to a spa day, and we offer you to come along, you look at us like we have three heads.

Listen up boys, taking care of yourself and "pampering" yourself is OK. Plus, it's kinda hot when a guy has a perfectly polished foot or silky smooth hair and skin.

Here are 7 beauty hacks that guys can and should follow:

1. Use a hairdryer

Look, maybe you have a really amazing carbon footprint, (and that's great) but your hair doesn't look all that amazing. After the shower, try ditching the typical towel dry and whip out a hairdryer and make your locks look like one of a God.

2. Face scrub/masks

Maybe you hop in the shower, wet your face and call it a day, but do you feel how much your face would glow if you would use a daily face scrub or facial mask? You'll appreciate- I guarantee.

3. Use lip products

Look, I know licking your lips to keep them "hydrated" might solve the problem temporarily but come on, you need some chap-stick. There's plenty of "manly" lip balms out there for you and with using them, you'll be smacking your lips together to feel their silky-smoothness.

4. Lotion up

I get it- lotion usually has fruity, "girly" scents but that's why they invented a men's line at several retail stores, so you gentleman can have buttery skin just like the rest of us. Besides, no one likes rough hands anyway.

5. Get a manicure and pedicure

Whether your fingernails and toenails are too long, broken or just too messed up a mani/pedi duo is never a bad choice. At some salons, there are specials for men.

6. Bubble baths are your friend.

Bubbles baths are sacred. No matter who you are or what you are doing, bubble baths after a long day are perfection. Some bath salts, candles, glass of wine and hot water is all you need. You won't regret it, boys.

7. Looking presentable

Don't get me wrong, I love the jeans and t-shirt look, but sometimes it's OK to switch it up and wear a pair of khakis with a button down. Looking presentable doesn't have to be an everyday thing, but every so often would 1. boast your confidence and 2. make us look good to have a sexy, well-dressed man on our arm.

So boys, there you go. Some reasonable ways to enhance your look. When you feel good and look good, all is well in your world. Stay handsome.


XOXO

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
