Do you think men are negligent about themselves? Do not be deceived, men care for beauty just as much as we women do. Concepts like skin care for men used to be alien a few years back, it is no more so. There are some tricks that men have indeed stolen from their 'fairer' counterparts. A decade back, caring for your body might have been considered unmanly but now it is seen as 'alpha'!

Here are some beauty tricks men have adopted from women but would never admit.

Secrets Of Beauty That Men Stole From Women:

1. Using A Face Wash: Your father's generation still doesn't do it. The very concept that your hand wash soap is 'harsh' and unsuitable for the facial skin never occurred to men until they saw women doing likewise. Skin care for men has become important enough for them to chuck soaps in favour of face washes and scrubs.

2. Using Conditioner On Hair: Men would wash their everyday and yet come out looking like a scarecrow! This is because this wonderful cosmetic called 'hair conditioner' never reached them until recently. The fact that hair care for now is a serious affair can be made out from the fact they are regularly seen endorsing hair conditioners.

3. Using A Night Cream: Skin care for men is to slap on some moisturizer whenever their face feels dry. The fact that applying night cream before going to bed can keep their skin soft would never occur to them. But now that stress levels are high and guys are aging faster, desperation has made men adopt this beauty trick.

4. Using Body Lotion: Have you ever seen a guy massage himself with body lotion? They would never admit even if they do it. Men in fact use all manner of lotions and creams (even fairness creams) these days to enhance their beauty.

5. Lips Balms For Chapped Lips: Men have actually outgrown their laziness to apply lip balm on chapped lips instead of chewing on them until they bleed. Having soft lips can be advantageous more than one ways and they have learned it!

6. Shaving Armpits: Most men these days shave their armpits if they are wearing singlets or vests. They do look a lot less gross this way, we'll all agree to that. Guys would be laughed off as unmanly if they did this some years back.

7. Importance Of Clean Nails: Clean nails is not only a mark of beauty but also health and hygiene. But guys would come back from the sports field with mud under their nails. The fact they have stopped taking pride in it is a huge achievement; they actually go for the occasional manicures or pedicures these days.

Be it skin or hair care for men, they still have a lot to borrow from women. Use these natural beauty tips that are actually secrets of beauty that men stole to be quite the 'ladies man' with women.
