Why should men adopt stealth makeup? We will look at the background of the times, its effects, and how to actually adopt it, based on the real voices of our editorial members.

Reasons Why Men Should Adopt Stealth Makeup (1)Changing Historical Trends

In recent years, the younger generation’s awareness of beauty has been growing year by year, and many men in their teens and 20s are interested in skin care and makeup and concerned about cleanliness in their appearance. On the other hand, middle-aged and older generations in their 30s and 40s and beyond are still not as interested in beauty as younger generations. When the current 30s and 40s were in their 20s, from the late 1990s to the early 2000s, “tanned skin” was considered a good thing, especially in youth culture, and dark skin was a kind of status for both men and women, and was regarded as healthy and cool. In addition, ” masculinity ” was emphasized at the time, and a slightly rough and wild appearance was often required. Stubble, long hair, and rugged styles were popular, and awareness of skin care and makeup was not as high as it is today. The concept of ” men’s beauty ” was not yet common.

If today’s 20-somethings continue to pursue cleanliness with a heightened awareness of beauty, while men in their 30s and 40s continue with the same lifestyle, there could be a significant difference in appearance and grooming between the generations in the future. The difference may affect their impression of cleanliness and professionalism, especially in business and social situations.

Why Men Should Adopt Stealth Makeup (2)A good impression at work and in your personal life starts with your appearance!

When judging a man’s first impression at a first meeting, special attention is paid to his face. The cleanliness and well-groomed appearance of the face greatly influences the overall impression of the person. The overall atmosphere, speech, facial expression, and style are also checked as important factors, and these form the overall first impression. According to Melavian’s Law, the sources of information used by people to determine their impressions of others are determined by visual information (55%), auditory information (38%), and verbal information (7%). In other words, since appearance, tone of voice, and speaking style account for most of the overall impression, it is known that appearance, facial expression, and speaking style have a significant impact on the impression, no matter how appropriate the words are.

For this reason, it is extremely important to maintain a positive facial impression. By taking care of your skin care and personal appearance, you can make a better first impression and make it easier for communication to proceed smoothly.

Three major benefits of men’s makeup (stealth makeup)

(1) A much cleaner look: A clean look gives a much better first impression in both business and private life, making it easier to build good relationships and gain trust. While clothing and hairstyle are basic elements that influence cleanliness, the addition of a good skin appearance will greatly enhance the completeness of a well-groomed appearance.

(2) Improved self-confidence: When a person’s appearance is polished through makeup, it improves the impression others have of him or her, which leads to an increased sense of self-esteem and the formation of a confident mental attitude. Improved confidence in appearance also makes it easier to communicate positively, leading to a more positive attitude toward work and interpersonal interactions.
