Double Trouble

Words by Nana Valdueza

All is fair in the game of skin and beauty. Men and women alike, both need that saving grace from a good SPF sunscreen or a lip balm. Perhaps opening horizons to beauty and grooming could be a start. Spare all doubts on gender-biased beauty and embrace the need for skin care and a few makeup enhancements. She or he, the skin is genderless with what it needs.

Moisturize. Nourish. Repair.

Both experiences the same despair and need to be treated with their own skin dilemmas.

No skin is different than the other. Raw masculinity requires healthy glowing skin, too. Every good-looking man knows the way to proper skin-care management. Just as simple as that and you are not an excuse. Ditch the "I'm a guy, I don't need that" mantra and splurge on something good for yourself.

It's not being extra, it's simply being clean.

Grooming is simply enhancing your features.
Men can be a bit mulish to makeup and we can understand that. However, not all good-looking men who walked the planet got out of bed looking jaw-dropping gorgeous without a little help with a touch of concealer and a little bronzer. One only needs the right product to have and the idea what to correct and enhance to keep it all groomed and neat.

On Elys: Cotton-Terry Sweatshirt With Tonal Embroidery Black, on sale for P12,025 and Travel Line Sim-Fit Chinos with Concealed Pockets Black, on sale for P8,250. All from Boss at rustans.com; On Selina: Stylist's own

She wants you to look good and feel good, too.
And it also means, she will be willing to share some of her favorite moisturizers, SPF lotions, or her proven anti-aging serum. But don't overdo it. Just skip on the lip balm, you can each have both.
