useless to use products on our skin when it's not necessary.
Not only is it necessary, but it also increases your cache with the opposite sex.
For instance, applyong green tea to the skin actually reverses dark spots and other skin blemishes.[1]
The fact of the matter is skin gets damaged over time mainly from poor care and maintenance, particularly among men.
Taking care of yourself, including your skin, isn't effeminate at all. It is actually important.
Just because men's skin is tougher, that doesn't mean it doesn't get damaged.
The same is true with sunglasses. 70 years ago only "effeminate men" wore sunglasses. In reality, sunglasses help protect against cataracts and ocular damage from too much sun exposure. Now everyone does.
Additionally, ancient roman soldiers, who are universally considered tough as nails, even in their day, had meticulous hygeine regimens.[2]
So it is preposterous, to me, to suggest that taking care of yourself and wanting to look your best is effeminate. Skin needs care like every other part of your body. Applying products that nourish it, like Green Tea, can actually prevent things like cancer and radiation damage from the sun.
It also helps you get laid.[3] So... idk... might be something to consider.
Of course. If you'd rather be "masculine" and die single, that's an option too.
