looking good is half the battleon a side note, i've seen a bunch of security camera videos of korean soldiers fucking their gfs at karaoke bars.
>>65080129you wouldn't get it
>>65080136>korean soldiers fucking their gfswhat do they fuck them with though?
>>65080129having good skin is simply healthy, and fucking around outside all day with chemicals ruins said skin
Isn't alot of skincare stuff like Hydration? Staying hydrateds gonna be a good idea in general when you are engaging in physical actvity.And generally staying on top of your hygiene doesn't hurt either, face masks seems like an unneeded step though.
>>65080149it costs extra money, time and adds no value on the battlefield. If your enemy is pussy starved, he might as well use you for temporary pleasure and as a result demoralize your platoon, company or your whole damned nation when the word gets out. God only knows what sort of unique signatures could be detected on a skin rich on retinoids versus that which isn't.
>>65080129Will this start to signal the return of the fop?
Does one exempted from the korean draft for having done shit like limb lengthening surgery or plastic surgery done for the face?
>>65080139>tfw no qt korean range trap
>>65080169no
>>65080250lol. over for hardmaxingcels
God forbid a man tries to look good
>>65080276are you in the closet anon?
>>65080323...is this an edit?
>>65080334There is a strong possibility this is a direct translation.
>>65080295As someone who never spent a minute doing any self care at 40 I look in the mirror and see a man pushing 60. Hydrate, use sunscreen and face lotion, spend time to meditate and destress, sleep properly, exercise, don't eat garbage, and do your dental hygine!
>>65080295Look buddy, do you take showers, or is it more "manly" to smell like week-old sweat in conditions where you don't have to? And do you wear just coveralls all day like Winston fucking Smith, or do you actually exercise judgement when it comes to your attire? Do you wash your hands? Your teeth? Shave?Is adding washing your face now and then, and a little sunscreen or such going to kill you? Or is "taking care of yourself" something as ooga-booga to you, as simply lifting heavy thing until you can lift heavier thing?
>>65080490not taking showers would literally make you fall ill, give you serious skin infections that'll reduce your combat performance, lifespan and shiett. That's basic hygience and not looxmaxxing. How in the world is looxmaxxing at battlefield ever going to achieve your combat goals unless of course you wish to honey trap homosexuals? It literally is waste on your own economic resources.>muh soiscreen lotionwouldn't that literally expose you on the battlefield? isn't that an extra piece of shit that you've to carry along ? isn't that an extra piece of shit that the military should waste it's money on?Modernity is truly fake, gay and emasculated as hell.

>>65080506Yeah, but we're not on "the battlefield", are we? Should we live underground and eat beans on toast all day, 'cause The fucking Blitz might resume any second now and you need to save up for the next war loan? People can pick their fucking priorities. Don't assume everyone's somehow an idiot incapable of understanding the situation they're in.>Modernity is truly fake, gay and emasculated as hell.It was normal only a few generations ago for well-off men, and those aspiring to be such, to wear wigs and powder their faces. Hell, cavalrymen wearing high heels in nearly living memory. Rings and jewelry to show off their status and wealth. Big dicks have been considered barbarous, yet now presumed superior.Societies change, these phenomena ebb and flow, come and go. Yet the mundane of society has kept running as it always has, no matter how much some seethe that the current phase is somehow incorrect, and some perceived eternal constant should be embraced instead. Don't fool yourself.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Male_Renunciationhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peacock_revolution
>>65080157>adds no value on the battlefield.Having handsome soldiers is incredibly important. One of the reasons Trump won was because we kept posting Biden's fat ugly soldiers and the people turned against Biden.
>>65080490Grug do face-care routine with rock-lift routine. Lift big rock, press big rock above head, scraping cheek. Lower rock, scraping other cheek. Exfoliate shiny face and muscles same time.
>>65080586any crap that tries to appease the femoidic form is increadibly fake, gay and cringe. No wonder species that choose that path end up extinct sooner or later. Besides, it's a literal waste of military resources to fucking procure this sort of crap.
>>65080586Looking mighty zesty there, SCAEF
>>65080129Good hygiene is important for maintaining morale and combat readiness. Looking good and feeling good are very much connected.
>>65080848only to an extent though. you do not need a shitfluencer type skin care routine on the fucking frontline of all places and waste military budget on that. Just how many homosexuals do we have in this board?
>>65080874>>65080874>Just how many homosexuals do we have in this boardIt's an age thing, and the 4chan cohort is getting older. In my 20s incidental amounts of machine grease and wd40 that haphazardly got onto me during the week were enough to keep me shiny. In my 30s, Now I have to consciously incorporate "product" (I hate the term) into my self care routine. I even have to shave daily now which, frankly, is absurd. I didn't ask for this.
>>65080129I mean going full routine and shit is pretty gay, but skin is the biggest organ of your body and the main thing that keeps nasty shit from getting into you, so some moisturizer isn't actually a bad idea.
>>65080886I'm literally 22 and feel sick to my stomach that the future is gay and gynocratic. Holy shiett, the West either has to deport all t's men to Wahabi madrasas or start bringing in the Taliban in droves to re-educate men on how to be men. Grow some pair faggots.
>>65080129It's weird how one of the ugliest races on the planet is so obsessed about looks. And all that they put on their faces and in their hair has the opposite effect. They literally look like effeminate, inhuman faggots wearing wax death masks.
>>65080490Why do you subhuman retards always argue like women?
>>65080157>not reinforcing your skin with titanium oxide>not being coated in anti-flash whitengmi
>>65080155"Moisturizer" is kinda of a misnomer, your skin isn't permeable to liquid so moisturizer doesn't hydrate your skin, what it does is create a moisture barrier to prevent water vapors from leaving your skin (which is what creates the sensation of dryness).
>>65081344>your skin isn't permeable to liquidAre you actually retarded or just trollin'?
>>65081373>The epidermis, "epi" coming from the Greek language meaning "over" or "upon", is the outermost layer of the skin. It forms the waterproof, protective wrap over the body's surfaceare you?
>>65081390Waterproof is being used incorrectly though. We’re water resistant, skin is a semi-permeable surface. That’s one reason why PPE for skin protection is a thing
>>65080909Strong words considering the giant fucking hissy fit you're having right now.
>>65080909You are just chronically online and have not seen enough of America irl.
This whole thread is aretarded response to the Korean beauty industry just trying to break into another market.
>>65081390Go ahead and dip your hands into a strong solution of water and sodium cyanide for a few minutes, then tell me how skin is waterproof and can't absorb any liquids.You can literally just weight yourself before and after a long shower and clearly see the significant weight increase despite the low accuracy of a regular bathroom scale. Stop being retarded.
>>65080129>mfw korean pretti boisMMMMMM DEM AZN BOUTTA MAKE ACT UP!!!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCi1ChVFtZk
>>65080939At least they argue. So much for males being the more "rational" sex.
>>65080155nigga just stay underwater, damn
I have a question about skincare. It seems logical enough to me that spending time on skincare gets you better skin, but a huge percent of the girls i know who take their appearance super seriously have terrible skin. Whenever they are without several pounds of makeup (rarely) its reddish and spotty and has little patches to hide (or maybe treat?) pimples. Testosterone makes your skin worse or oilier or something from what ive read, but myself and all my guy friends who do nothing in terms of skincare have basically spotless, decent looking faces. The main reason i dont do skincare is because ive never needed nicer skin.
>>65083869being covered in makeup all the time is bad for your skin
>>65083869it is possible to go overboard anon and many girls often do, especially with bad makeup as >>65083906 and worse the longer bad makeup is worn (i say bad makeup since there's higher quality makeup out there now but that's beside the point)skincare is not magic. you are just cleaning what is dirty and protecting what is clean. wash your face, exfoliate (fancy term for fine scrubbing your face) and then apply moisteurizer to keep it clean and fresh for longer. avoid meme products and scenty stuff. pretty much just buy a CeraVe collection to be honest, most are scentless, utilitarian non-gender marketed products even pros use, applying special acne creams if you got it particularly bad. there's also special oils and creams to fade scars and even out discoloration as wellanyway there is skincare in the context of health and wellness which is absolutely barebones by comparison to self-destructive vanity products that deliberately worsen skin so you buy more products. fuck sig and fuck glocks btw
>>65080909The irony is the whole "moisturizer is for weak faggots!" shit is a modern thing, men through most of human history were covering themselves in oils religiously.Read anything by the Greeks, half of the Odyssey is just talking about how big dick gigachad Odysseus who killed monsters, fucked demigod bitches, and slaughtered pretty much all of Ithaca's fighting aged males almost single handedly because they were horny for his wife liked to bath and then get covered in olive oil.
>>65084275ancient greece was gay af though. Besides, oiling was considered medicinal and perhaps even the panacea to help prevent serious skin infections that could render you useless on the battlefield and kill you early.
Neat thread. I have irritable man skin so I have to use a salicylic acid face wash, and since im in my 30s ive been using retinol at night every other night. Aside from that its really not much of a stretch outside of my regular hygienic routine.Bitches do be saying my skin looks amazing for my age tho so maybe there's something there after all eh
>>65084275The Greeks were gay, not the modern femboy type gay but the far more respectable manly type gay where it's binary instead of a spectrum. I'm sorry but having intimate contact with a man is gay regardless of how effeminate he may look and act and regardless of if you top or bottom
So all you have to do is put "tactical advantage " in front of a blatent homo thread?
>>65086404I mean, tops aren't gay, they just dom bitches, right?
>>65086422Anon, I...
>>65085317>>65086404Sure, Greeks were gay, but they also basically invented lifting and constantly went to war because "lmao, sure, sounds like fun."Also, anon wants to bring in the fucking Taliban to "teach men how to be men again," a culture that famously has a "if he's too young to grow body hair, it's not gay" loophole they exploit hard.
