My neckline and well proportion man

Ladies

Ladies, once you know your figure type, bring your attention to your neck where it draws the most attention because it makes an impact on the appearance of your neck, chin, face and overall impression.

Now let have a simple quiz, the figures below show two types of cutting-boat and crew neck. Try to figure out which figure type is not suitable for the particular cutting and guess the reason, e.g. linear figure is not suitable for crew neck.


Boat Neck

Crew Neck

Answer: The Boat neck cutting is generally suitable for all except for the upper figure woman (big shoulders) as the cutting makes them look like they are professional wrestler who are well trained in the gym.

The crew neck is not suitable for full figure woman as the cutting makes them appear they have short neck and heavy bodies.

Gentleman

The figure below shows a man with a proportion figure and he looks well dress if he allows his top to be tucked in loosely.

In addition, he should try to avoid wearing baggy trouser if he is shorter than 1.68m and slim fitting trouser if he is taller than 1.83m. Guess why?

Answer: If you are shorter than 1.68m and you are wearing baggy pants, would you look like a windmill with bag of winds beneath your short.

If you are taller than 1.83m and you are wearing slim fitting pants, you will draw more attention to your legs as they might resemble two parallel lines.

In addition, you should also try to measure the size of your chest. If your chest dimension is less than 97cm-you are considered to have a fine scale figure. If your chest dimension is between 97-112 cm, you belong to the average scale group.

Most people look at your face to gauge your presentation and personality. The individual element that makes up your face may not be outstanding; but if you maintain them well, you can create an impression that is both professional and personal.

How to shave (Singapore Style)

A. Shave after a shower or apply hot water to the face prior to shaving help to soften the beard and open the pores.

B. Apply a good amount of shaving cream to your face using your fingers in a circular motion.

D. After shaving, apply cold water to your face to close the pores and pat your skin dry.

E. Apply moisturizer or after shave products to maintain moisture.

It was the shaving that bothered me the most. I'm not a great fan of shaving and I had to be really clean-shaven, hands, head, hairline, all the fluff off my face, everything except my eyebrows, so this sheen, this kind of polish they used on me, would stick. -Jude Law
