健康生活:男性裝扮的十個必要小技巧
Whether you are trying to impress that special someone on your first date, or you're just trying to look (and smell) more pleasant when you leave for the office or the local pub, proper grooming is crucial for making a good impression. If you're in the dark about proper grooming habits, like a lot of guys out there, you have nothing to fear. Just read this list of 10 essential grooming tips for men to help you look more polished and presentable, while still having a masculine appearance:
無論你想讓自己在與心愛之人的第一次約會上給她留下深刻影響，或是隻想讓自己去咖啡館或酒吧時看起來（或聞起來）更好一些，合適的裝扮都決定着你在別人眼中的印象。如果你像許多人一樣仍對如何正確裝扮一頭霧水，那你不必害怕。只要閱讀下面10條建議，便可讓你更加亮眼漂亮，而不失男子氣。
1. Trim Nose Hairs 修剪你的鼻毛
Protruding nose hairs are never, ever acceptable. They cannot be used to enhance appearance, and are just flat-out unsightly. Invest in a pair of nose hairs trimmers or tweezers and make sure you always keep those puppies where they should be - in your nose! Specialized nose clippers are also available for that quick, nose hair trim.
突出的鼻毛永遠是不可容忍的。它們無法提高外觀，卻只能讓你變得無比難看。買一副鼻毛修剪器或者小鑷子可以確保讓你的“小寵物”呆在屬於它自己的地方——你的鼻子裏。專業的鼻毛修剪器更是可以快速修剪。
2. Take Care of Your Eyebrows 注意你的眉毛
Eyebrow maintenance is not restricted to women only. While you want to avoid thin, feminine eyebrows, you do want to keep them somewhat cleaned and polished. Consider a little plucking and trimming to keep them inline and straight while keeping them full and masculine. And in case you were wondering, they're called "eyebrows," not "eyebrow." Always make sure there are two of them before heading out, not just one.
修眉可不僅限於女性。如果你想避免又細有孃的眉毛，而又想保持積分乾淨和優美。那麼考慮下稍微拔蝕並修剪，以保持它們呈線形而又挺直，同時不失飽滿和男子氣概。如果你感到奇怪，那是因爲眉毛有兩條，請確保兩條都修飾到了，不要厚此薄彼。
3. Take Care of Your Lips 注意你的嘴脣
While most men feel awkward when it comes to applying anything to their lips, they need to remember: lip balm is not lipstick. Preventing chapped lips is important for proper grooming and will help prevent your lips from crusting and bleeding. If you're afraid it will make you look too feminine, just avoid the glittery and ultra-glossy variety.
當大多數男人需要做到脣部的表情時，他們總是很尷尬的，他們需要記住：脣膏不是口紅。防止嘴脣乾裂對於合理的裝扮來是是非常重要的，它能防止你的嘴脣結硬皮或流血。如果你害怕那會讓你看上去很娘，那就避免閃光類和極端光澤類的脣膏。
4. Groom Your Ears 裝扮你的耳朵
Men often overlook their ears during their regular grooming session. Ear hairs, ear wax, dry skin and build-up in and around the ears should all be taken care of as a part of your grooming regimen. Pay special attention to your ears right after having your hair cut because there will definitely be unsightly hair trimmings inside and around your ears that your barber is likely to miss.
男人們在日常裝扮中經常會忽視掉耳朵。在裝扮準則中，耳毛、耳垢、幹皮以及耳朵邊緣的沉積物必須要注意。尤其在理髮後更是應當注意你的耳朵，因爲由於你理髮師的忽略，肯定會有不雅的頭髮屑在裏面或在周圍。
5. Brush and Floss Regularly 定期刷牙並用潔牙線剔牙
Most men know that brushing their teeth is important. The problem is, many are guilty of not knowing how to brush properly. And flossing? Flossing is probably skipped by the majority of men out there. Just remember that the plaque between your teeth can cause bad breath as well.
很多人都知道刷牙很重要。但問題是，很多人不知道如何正確刷牙。至於牙線，更是被很多人忽視。一定要記住牙之間的蝕斑也能引起口臭。
6. Don't Bathe in Cologne 別噴太多香水
While you may be overly self-conscious about body odor, that doesn't give you an excuse to literally bathe in your cologne or aftershave. It's good that you're thinking about your scent, but having too much fragrance on your body can be just as revolting. Just get a few dabs of cologne on the insides of your wrists, then apply to your neck to have a faint, yet appealing scent that should meet most people's approval.
或許你有過餘強烈的體味意識，但那不足以成爲你噴太多香水和鬚後水的藉口。關心自己的體味是件好事，但太多的香味只能招來反感。只在你的手腕上輕拍少許，然後在你的脖子上留一個微弱的味道，這樣，吸引人的氣味便可符合大多數人的認可。
7. Trim Your Nails 剪指甲
Long nails work for women, never for men. Men have a tendency to get their hands dirtier, and long finger nails means you are tracking dirt from almost everything you touch. Keep your nails trimmed regularly, and use a scrubber or loofa for cleaning underneath and around your finger nails.
長指甲僅適用於女人，永遠不適合男人。男人的手更易髒，長指甲意味着你所接觸的一切事物都很髒。定期剪指甲，並用清潔器和毛巾清潔你的指甲下面和周圍。
8. If You Have Facial Hair, Take Care of It 如果你有絡腮鬍，處理好它
Nothing is wrong with growing a beard, even if it's longer than the average man's hair length. Facial hair can be used to enhance a man's look and facial features. Just don't forget that you need to take care of your facial hair the same way you would take care of the hair on your head. Always trim and wash your facial hair to prevent it from looking unsightly. And lastly, try to keep your food and drinks off of your facial hair.
長鬍子沒什麼打不了的，甚至是比平均水平還要長。絡腮鬍可以提高男人的外觀和麪部特點。只是別忘了你需要像照看自己的髮型一樣照看好你的鬍子。經常修剪並清洗你的鬍子以防止自己變得難看。最後，儘量別把食物沾到你的鬍子上。
9. Take Your Time While Shaving 慢慢刮鬍子
It's amazing how most men can blast through a daily shaving. It's almost as if they don't realize they are handling a sharp blade that is scraping at their face. Shaving cuts just make you look ridiculous, so take your time when handling your razor. Properly coat your face with shaving cream, gel or soap, and slowly shave each section, shaving with the grain, not against it. Also invest in aftershave lotion to keep your skin smooth and moisturized.
很奇怪很多人居然每天刮鬍子如此神速。他們幾乎沒有意識到他們正在拿着一個鋒利的刀片在刮自己的臉。這樣刮鬍子只能讓你看起來更可笑，所以刮鬍子的時候千萬不要着急。正確地用刮鬍膏或凝膠肥皂之類覆蓋你的面部，慢慢地刮好每個部位，順着紋理刮，不要逆着它。使用優質的鬚後水、潤膚露以保持你的面部光滑、充滿水分。
10. Lotion is Not Just for Women 潤膚露不只是女人專用
There are plenty of guys who are guilty of hands that feel like they were dipped in battery acid, flaky arms and ashy legs. Maybe it's because they think lotion is for the ladies only. However, lotion is important for guys too. If you're afraid of looking or smelling girly, just grab the unscented kind and apply it when no one is looking.
許多人的手如同是在電池酸裏泡過一樣，還有着薄片一樣的胳膊和灰色的腿。或許他們認爲潤膚露只是讓女人用的。然而，潤膚露對男人同樣重要。如果你害怕看起來或聞起來很娘，那麼選擇無味型的並在沒人注意你的時候使用。
