more than meets the eye

The successful modern dad is a busy guy who does his best to strike the balance between the demands of work, life, the kids and his pursuit of happiness. Depending on how well that is all going, life can take its toll on how we feel when we wake up in the morning, and how we look when we roll in to the office.

Fatigue and lack of sleep is one of the tell tale signs of a dad who has just too much on his plate. Often, when there is just not enough time for the little things, like a good nights sleep, or a day at the spa, we have been known to neglect our appearance.

It is common knowledge that the outside world will pass judgment in a split second based on how we look. In our hectic and fast paced lives, when seconds count, sometimes the littlest known and fastest to implement personal grooming tips go a long way to add smoke to the mirrors of life and foil the critics.

If you have been up all night with the kids, take one look in the mirror. You’ll see dark, sagging saddlebags, larger than life under your eyes. If this is happening to you, and you are on your way to a job interview, the all important sales meeting, or a hot date with your significant other—don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. There is a fast and easy solution, right there in your medicine cabinet.

Take a look in your medicine cabinet. For some reason or another, unbeknownst to most of us, there always seems to be a tube of that dreaded hemorrhoid cream, often known as “Preparation H”. Seems odd but its true. The same product that has been known to soothe the one place that never sees the light of day can also bring down those bags below our eyes to reveal the true you.

It sounds gross, but its not really. Take a pea size amount and rub it carefully under your eye—be careful not to rub it in your eye. Within minutes you will feel like a new man and you will look like you have slept the whole night through!

We have under our eyes covered. next we’ll address the hairy monsters above them. The eyebrow.
