(WXYZ) - This may help give the economy boost, but it will do nothing for the battle of the sexes.
Ladies you’ll want to keep an eye on your eyeliner and foundation because, turns out, more and more men are using makeup.
According to survey done by fashion site HauteLook , over the past 12 months in the UK, there’s been a 66% increase in men seeking beauty products and treatments.
More guys are buying cleansers, eye creams, and getting manicures and pedicures.
It’s not just across the pond, either.
Earlier this year, there were reports of a rise in American men opting for Brazilian waxes.
There’s also a whole market currently being developed for men including products like men’s nail polish and even “guy-lashes”—you guessed it, fake eyelashes for men.
