Chris Hemsworth's Grooming Secrets
Australian bred and innately brooding, Chris Hemsworth certainly has come a long way from his humble beginnings in the Australian outback. This gentle giant, yes he stands at a towering 6'3"inches of Australian muscle is perhaps the only actor who could be typecast as the God Thor!
Although known for his laid back, private approach to life and love of surfing, it still takes some amount of daily grooming, not to mention gruelling daily gym sessions to look like this father of 3!
THE BEARD: Chris has mastered the facial hair trent, without compromising "office" appropriateness! The secret: keep it short with a light wash of whiskers that gives full coverage without the bulk. Let the hair grow out, and then trim it when you are happy with the length. Pay close attention as you shave a crisp line at the neck (remember to keep neck bare). To maintain, use Tweezerman facial hair scissors to keep the upper lip and cheek area neat, and shave your neck below that defined line daily.
THE CLEANSER: Keeping with Chris' laid back approach to everything, his favourite cleanser is the ultimate 3 in 1 time saving product! Clarins Men Active Face Wash is a foaming cleanser which helps to exfoliate and tone the skin, all at once.
THE SUNSCREEN: Calling Malibu home and being the keen surfer that Chris Hemsworth is, means this man knows a thing or two about protecting his skin with Kiehl's Facial Fuel UV Guard SPF 50 from sun damage.
THE MOISTURISER: Clarins Men Fatigue Fighter Skincare is brilliant quick fix gel to improve the appearance of hungover, overworked, stressed and under slept skin! According to Chris, it is an instant, fuss free pick me up.
THE MUSCLE RELIEF: With hours of intense gym sessions, long days on film sets and death defying stunts, Chris swears by Molton Brown Bracing Silverbirch Thermal Muscle Soak, to revive and comfort tense muscles.
THE BODY WASH: Cowshed Bullocks Bracing Body Wash is a refreshing cleanser, full of essential oils, that will not dry the skin. Chris finds this product super hydrating and time saving, eliminating the need to moisturise after showering.
THE HAIR PRODUCTS used by Chris Hemsworth: Sun, Surf and Sand are a few of Mr. Hemsworth's favourite things, and so is keeping his hair in great condition with Davines SU Renewing Protective After Sun Shampoo.
For Chris' notoriously, tousled, semi- scruffy, textured look, opt for Tigi Bed Head Stick - A Hair Stick For Cool People. Few products are as loved by men as this one, including Chris Hemsworth, as it allows product application directly where you want, without covering your hands in gunk.
THE FRAGRANCE: Gucci Guilty Pour Homme EDT is a manly scent, and very fittingly Mr. Hemsworth's fragrance of choice. The strong patchouli herb, combined with cedar and sandalwood, gives this scent a manly feel, and the addition of amber notes, make it earthy yet exotic and totally irresistible to the opposite sex!
So, gentlemen, there is a thing or two you can all learn from Chris Hemsworth himself, who like many of you, likes to keep it as simple as possible!
