Seasoned skin therapist and aesthetician, Mimi Whyte-Femi, the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Skin Therapy Beauty and Spa has made a case for men who use cosmetics, asserting that it is also important for men to use cosmetics just as the women do.

As we know, makeup companies have been trying to sell to men for decades. But the big challenge, as every marketer in the beauty industry knows, is getting men to believe cosmetics can be manly. Some brands, especially on the international scene try to do this by opting for more manlier names – rebranding Mascara to Manscara, Eyeliner to Guyliner, foundation to tinted moisturizer.

Others argue that cosmetics gives men “masculine benefits” by accentuating a more pronounced jaw line, by attracting women, or fixing so-called “skin problems”. This is a line being towed by one of Nigeria’s leading skincare specialists and marketer, and the brain behind Skin Therapy Beauty and Spa

According to her in a recent interview, “Of course, men too need to take care of their skin. So they can also fight signs of aging and enjoy healthy skin. Everyone needs good skincare. There’s no exception.

“The world of skincare is advancing and there are loads of more enhanced treatments coming up, we just have to sit back and enjoy the wonders. Cosmetics improves the features of the face and skin, therefore improving the image of that person.

“This can change lives because in the real world, image matters. A man wants to have a good image and confidence that radiates confidence and a skin that glows. Hence, a man should use cosmetics like a woman,” she said.

Speaking further, she reeled out some tips men may adopt in keeping their skin healthy and glowing.

“It depends on what a man wants to achieve with a beauty product. I will recommend they always use very nourishing, hydrating and corrective skin care products and also try to visit a spa for regular massage and body exfoliating services,” she said.
