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.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
