Makeover Hacks Men Shouldn’t Be Afraid to Try

While some men may think nothing of investing in a good quality jacket or expanding some of their accessories, there are some makeover hacks that men avoid. Whether it’s the perception of some being gendered or a lack of willingness to try new things, there are some self-improvements where are often deemed as no-go areas. Broadening out your skincare and fashion taste could give you a gradual and much-needed makeover, however. 

Pastels and bright colors

Neutrals, browns, and burgundies may be the usual palettes of shopping outlets when it comes to men’s clothing, but that doesn’t mean you should keep your color range closed off. Trying out pastels and bright colors will give your wardrobe a unique pop of color that you can make yours uniquely if you experiment a little. Discovering that you look great in burnt orange, sunshine yellow or pastel blue could suddenly open up a whole new world to you.

Cosmetic dentistry 

Having an uneven or discolored smile can be a huge source of insecurity for many men. Opting for cosmetic dentistry is not just the Hollywood A-Listers or the Kardashians; this is something that everyone has access to. Simply researching the cost of a dental implant could lead to you opting for a procedure that could help your confidence to come on leaps and bounds. There’s no point in hiding your smile: it could be your best asset! 

Statement shoes

If you are guilty of wearing one pair of shoes to death, it might be wise to invest in a statement pair. While it may feel like a bit of a splurge, a statement pair of shoes are great for going on dates, wearing to job interviews, and just generally feeling good on a night out. Your new pair of statement kicks will help you keep your exercise trainers for their designated purpose and reserve your comfy shoes for general trips out and about.

Bust out of your cheap and easy skincare routine

While affordable skincare has come on leaps and bounds in recent years, not all products are full of good, natural products. Some cheap scrubs can be far too harsh on your skin, obliterating it of its natural oils. Plus, chasing it with a lightweight moisturizer might not be doing you any favors. Instead, try and broaden out your cleansing routine:

• Try using a cream cleanser and a flannel soaked in warm water to remove it. This will exfoliate and lift and daily dirt. 
• Apply a moisturizer that is right for your skin type. A light, hydrating version might be good for oily skin, while a more nourishing, heavy-duty moisturizer could be better for dryer skin. 
• Try a mask every week. This will help prevent blackheads and give your skin a refresh. 

Having a makeover can do wonders for your self-confidence. It’s essential not to gender the idea of a wardrobe refresh or a skincare routine, as this will exclude you not only from the benefits but also the enjoyment of transforming your lifestyle choices.
