Witchy Tip: Glamours For Men
Whenever I see glamour spells, theyâre usually in regards to makeup or feminine maintenance. This isnât a bad thing - those spells are wonderful, and I love reading them (especially given the fact that I see them as being useful for myself at times). But often I find that thereâs a bit of a lack of glamour spells for men.
Iâm talking about glamour spells for shaving, for cologne, and the like. And while this is a tip and meant to be brief, I wanted to put a few out for my male followers who want to keep up a masculine appearance, but want to work a little magic into their daily routines!
Shaving:Â Depending upon your shaving method, there are plenty of ways to work in glamours. I personally use a safety razor and shaving soap (you know, the old-fashioned kind with the ceramic dish and solid soap bar inside that you froth up with water and a hog-hair brush). If you use this method, choose scents that you associate with that which you want to bring into your life (patchouli for enhancing masculine fertility, dragonâs blood for strength, et cetera). If the type of soap you buy has scented options, this is a great way to work it in. If not, be careful to check and see if it is safe to work essential oils into your lather. (It is important to use safe oils and in small amounts, as shaving causes micro-abrasions on the skin; if it is not a safe oil, or youâre using too much of it, it will cause the skin to dry out.)
A similar method can be applied to other lathers and creams, though these often come with plenty of scents.
Working sigils into makeup is a frequent form of glamour spell, and shaving can incorporate this as well. With a small amount of the lather, you can draw the sigil onto your skin before spreading it out - spread the lather out in clockwise circular motions while visualizing and focusing your intent into your skin and lather.
Shaving can also be a spell unto itself - the scraping away of negative traits or energy. As you shave away your hair, visualize the negative energies or negative traits coming up off of your skin and being removed from your body.
And I should point out that these shaving tips apply not only to the face, but to wherever you are shaving. That said, if youâre âmanscaping,â I would recommend against using the oils unless youâre absolutely certain that theyâre safe, and recommend choosing scents and sigils for increasing potency, male sexual energy, et cetera.
Colognes: As I get into this, I want to make a huge point here. Guys, whether youâre into other men, into women, or into the whole spectrum, scent has no gender. What can often be universally agreed is that some body sprays simply arenât appealing. First step to scent-based glamour spells is to avoid scents that make you smell like the inside of a middle school (or even high school) locker room after PE or a football game. For the majority of ladies and men, thatâs just not an appealing scent (and sprays are often more damaging to your environment than is immediately realized).Â
That said, deodorants and colognes are a great way to work some glamour into your daily routine. Select scents that you associate with your goal. If youâre using a stick deodorant, you can mark a sigil on the bottom of the container, or you can take a moment to hold the deodorant in your hand and empower it with your intent. The same can be done with colognes and perfumes (yes, perfumes⌠again, scent has no gender). Floral and fruity scents can work wonders, so choose floral or fruity scents associated with your intention.
Skin and Hair Care: It is important to remember that while society on the whole doesnât seem to focus much on male skin and hair care, it is still vitally important. Using moisturizers is beneficial, and sigils and the like can be worked into your skin - scents add further benefits for this. As you wash and moisturize, again use your intentions and energy to confer those intentions into your spell.
Though for the most part, shorter hairstyles are the norm for men, that isnât to say that glamours canât be incorporated. Sigils on your products, empowering your shampoos and pomade, rinsing your hair with essential oils. All of these can be done to further reinforce your glamours.Â
Clothing and Accessories: Whether you wear jewelry or not, this is still an option for men. If you wear jewelry, you can empower your accessories with your intention. Clothing can be marked with sigils on the tags, or washed with appropriate oils. Anything that works with your appearance can be incorporated into a glamour spell!
Last point I want to make is that glamour spells unto themselves are gender neutral. If thereâs any take away I want there to be with this witchy tip, itâs that everyone can be beautiful/handsome and can incorporate magic into their routine to add to that. Confidence and humility are sexy, and by embracing your personal style and adding your own magical flair, you can further empower these aspects into your life!
Blessed Be, and Hugs to All! )O(
