Hello!
An article was recently published where I was asked for skin care and hair product suggestions for males getting ready for their gay weddings, but I figured it would also work for the males in our lives who wanted a little extra something on their Big Day too. So I have copied and pasted the highlights in case you or someone you know would enjoy reading it. I would also love to hear any other product rec's that the men in your life also love to use
Beauty: Wedding Day Beauty Products for Men
We talked to veteran makeup artist Rebecca Liceaga, and she gave us a few prewedding products sure to leave you feeling pampered.
For the face and skin?
* Check out the men's skin-care line from Lancome. "The Ultimate Cleansing gel is so easy to use and doesn't leave residue on the skin that can be irritating for men," she says. Also try the Hydrix Micro-Nutrient moisturizing gel from the same line. Men can use it after shaving and it doesn't contain a large amount of alcohol like some products, so it won't burn.
* For eyes, consider Christian Dior HydrAction Visible Defense eye creme SPF 20. The SPF protects the very thin skin around the eye from sun damage.
* If you’re looking for a facial mask, try Liceaga’s fave: the Merle Norman’s Luxiva clarifying clay mask.
Hair products that work?
* Liceaga is all about Sebastian’s Threads styling products. “It’s a styling cream with a microfiber technology that literally threads hair together to maintain a superb hold on any style,” she says. “It’s great for guys with longer or fuller hair.”
* As for hairspray, check out Bumble and Bumble's Does It All styling spray. It's a mid-level spray with extreme versatility; you can set a style with it and use a variety of hot tools without having to reach for another product.
What about sunscreen?
* If you’re looking for a nongreasy sun-care formula, try ColoreScience Sunforgettable SPF 30 powder sunscreen. It comes in a translucent formula so no one will be able to tell you have it on.
* Also check out Makeup Forever’s HD foundation primer. Though it’s supposed to be used underneath foundation, it gives you a matte, flawless complexion that’s silky smooth to the touch. While the primer isn’t available yet to consumers, you can get a similar effect with their HD powder.
