1. Use Gel Face Cleanser once or twice a day to cleanse face (and shoulder if you have acne there). Gentle, liquid or gel cleansers will not dry your skin out as many bar soaps do.
2. Always shower or wash face using lukewarm water, not hot. Hot water is drying.
3. Within 5 minutes of stepping out of shower or washing face, apply After Shave and Face Moisturizer to your skin. This will attract moisture all day long.
4. Apply After Shave and Face Moisturizer again at bedtime after splashing face with lukewarm water.
5. Invest in a humidifier to cut down on dryness in the air while you sleep. This could benefit your respiration as well as your skin (and you won’t wake up with such bad dry mouth).
6. For rough or cracked feet: apply Foot Spray to them in the morning. At night, apply The Balm and then cover with white, cotton socks. This will increase greater moisture absorption.

Many men color their hair beginning in their mid-40’s (or earlier). The trick to doing this is that the hair should not look like it’s been colored. When it looks obvious (i.e, too dark or a light brown that looks orange), it’s embarrassing. The first time around, most men go for the full head dye job, that why it’s a dead give away. It’s preferable to spruce up graying temples at home (yes, I know the idea of home hair coloring is foreign to men). But it’s easy. Just buy a kit from a drugstore. But be careful, there are common pitfall. Select a color closest to your natural color (assuming you have some of that left). Limit application to graying areas only. The best trick I know is to use a cotton swab or toothbrush. Instead of leaving the color on for the prescribed 30 minutes, just wait 10 or 15 so some of the gray strands will remain for a more translucent effect (this also ensures that it won’t be too noticeable) . At the end, wash the hair and be careful to avoid stained hands (another give away of a die job). You can use petroleum jelly around your hair line to prevent the color from dripping into your face, ears, etc. If it goes awry, just get a haircut and try again.
