I like when guys pay attention to certain details. If my dude sees me giving myself a manicure and pedicure, and asks if we can make this a couple activity, great. If he wants to make my entire beauty regimen a couple activity, um . . . no.
My husband noticed last year that have several different creams and a whole extended personal hygiene routine for bedtime, and one for the morning. He asked what all the steps were for, and asked if he could use some of my products. I agreed, hesitantly. First of all, that shit's expensive, and his face is enormous. But mostly? I didn't want him to be girly. He's very masculine, and I like that. As it turned out, he didn't want to use everything. He wanted to wash his face with my face wash a few times a week, and try out my night time moisturizer, since I tell him ingrown beard hairs are partially caused by dry skin. This is not girly to me. But if he wanted to use my whole routines, I'd be a little dry in my nether-regions for a while.
I dated this one dude who used to take me with him on business trips. He was way too fastidious to remain sexy in my eyes for long. The main reason it lasted as long as it did was that we shared a fairly uncommon fetish. He had way more creams and serums, and elixirs than I did. At least three times as much. He is the only man I know who could wear white sneakers to the beach, AND play basketball there, AND bring the sneakers home immaculately clean. Not a speck of golden sand to be seen. Also, when we left for the beach that morning, it took him two hours at the hotel to get ready, and then 20 minutes at the beach, in the parking lot. I have so much disdain for him.
