Grooming tips for you and me

posted by:

  • Take care of your skin, wear moisturizer with SPF, drink more water, blah blah blah mantra… apply lotions religiously and keep your nails prim and proper. These tips applies to both gender. Girls, if you have no time to clean those chipped cutex, I suggest you save your time coloring them and give yourself a mask instead. 
  • Keep hair in place and neat. No frizz, no flyaways. There is a reason why there are hundreds of hair products out there. Do not wear your hair wet when you go out. You’ll look like you’ve run out of the bathroom half done. Men appreciate women who take care of themselves. Guys, trim hair regularly and don’t forget shaving. 
  • Wear comfortable shoes. Ladies!! Do not wear slippers, in transit to work, especially on a public transport. Spending so much of shoes, you WANT people to look at them, and your sexy legs. Save slippers, sandals for beach. And sport shoes only goes with gym attire. Guys, socks! Don’t forget them. Wear them with leather shoes and sports shoes, too. 
  • Outfit for the right occasion. Be modest for official look (meaning – at work), don’t flash unnecessary skin, we want men to respect us for other brains, not other parts. If your job requires you to be creative, be creative, but don’t lose yourself. Dress according to your style and identity, not following others. Iron your shirt well, buttons in place, tuck in nicely – girls do not like guys to be frumpy. I think it is necessary for guys to wear singlets inside when wearing working shirts- give your body the built and not to mention – to conceal certain parts. 
  • Invest in staple (read: must have) items. Girls – white shirt, great cutting pants, closed toes shoes (you’ll need it for formal occasions, although I do suggest all working females to wear these, not strappy heels, they are reserve for partying nites), GOOD FITTING BRA (and learn how to wear them correctly – no spillage, no falling straps) and invisible line panties . And you must take good care of them = lingerie detergent. Guys – leather shoes, pants, leather/steel watch, shirt, cuff links. Don’t blindly follow fads, it is good to have at least 2 pieces of latest trends, as long as it reflects the style identity you would like to potray. Plus it will save you lots of money each time a new trend replace another. 
  • Make up! in European countries, make up is manners. BE subtle if you don’t like make up – lip color (balm with colors for those who hate lipsticks, gloss is not apporiapte for official), mascara, blusher. Unless you have perfect skin, with rosy cheeks and red lips, you should not skip this part. Guys, you can use make up too, there are make up line specially for guys which are not to create made up look, but to conceal your bad points and enhance your looks – as lip balm (dry and chapped lips are a big no-no!), tinted spf moisturizer. Try this to mattify oily skin. 
  • Groom yourself! well. It is such an important aspect to make the lasting firm impression. Lastly check before leaving the house. Face – check. Outfit – check. Hair – check. Shoes – check.

    Christmas is here. If you are bummed for ideas of what to buy.. read on.

    Well, since Gap has newly open their door to consumers of KL-ites, in none other than One Utama, why no get some Christmas shopping there. I’ve chosen here a belt and an inspired red tee… well, we may not find it in OU’s store, but let’s hopegapbelt.inspiredt

    This is dress-down for after Christmas party.

    Next, Benefit cosmetics for her. Seen here is Benetint cheek tint, which can double as lip tint too. A rosy glow for the Christmas party date. You can also get a SPF lip balm – fool proof gift.benefitc

    You gotta have sparkly stuff for Christmas – Tous watch. Style and wearability, doubles as a charm bracelet too.

    If casual is your theme, don’t forget these chunky watches.

    For techies, don’t run from this blog. There is fabulous stuff I have selected here.

    K800i from Sony Ericson – 3.2 megapixel camera, talk about photoblog.

    And ipod nano (red), great color for getting Christmas-y. Plus it can be laser engraved with the owner’s name.
