Great Buys for the Straight Guy-Holiday Advice from a Real-Life Carrie Bradshaw!

Are the men in your life more “Meatloaf” than metrosexual? The holidays are a perfect time to introduce your guy to the joys of male pampering, says life & career expert Alison Blackman Dunham, the real-life (and adult) version of Sex & the City’s Carrie Bradshaw whose
advicesisters.net and advicesisters.com web site are advice Meccas for adults of all lifestyles, interests and ages.

“Men, especially those over age 25, really want to look and feel their best and stay youthful, but they may not reach out on their own to try products,” says Alison, whose quarterly What Works Beauty, Cosmetics and Fashion Reviews: http://www.advicesisters.net/whatworkscol3.html are read by men as well as women, around the world. I suggest buying the men in your travel sets for the holidays. These generally feature sample sizes of a number of products, packaged in a useful travel bag great for gym or when he’s on the road. This way, he’s more likely to try a number of different products and see how the work. You may hear joking, at first, but after he tries the products and sees how much better they make him look and feel, he’ll stop smirking and start shopping on his own,” she adds.

Alison, also known as “Advice Sister Alison” for her double-take, two views for every question advice columns on the two Advicesisters web sites: http://www.advicesisters.net and http://www.advicesisters.com claims that most of the men who read her quarterly beauty and cosmetics-related “What Works” column are merely curious. Once they try products, they suddenly understand what women have known all along – that the right products can make them look and feel better and look younger, longer. “Once a man experiences great results, why would he want to suffer with dry or aging skin? There’s no benefit to having wrinkles or dry, itchy skin,” she explains.
