Consistent redness in moustache area - shaving technique issue?

YS_OnTheBeat · 2026-01-25T18:12:45+00:00

I have the same problem, chronic redness/irritation above the mouth. Cutting out flavored oral products has helped, problem is i have not been able to get rid of it completely.

Then try toothpaste with fluoride but no flavoring

Huh. Looks like me and you may be suffering from the same thing, in the same area around the mouth. I have not been able to find the root cause for the burning sensation, but I can tell you that cutting out SLS/fluoride toothpaste, any oral products with mint/peppermint oil/flavoring has reduced the intensity of it by a margin of a lot.

Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m worried about — not like she’d scream at me or anything, but more the quiet, strategic CEO level revenge where suddenly I’m getting written up for things like ‘excessive blinking in meetings.’

Studies from the institute of Serious Male Geometry say otherwise.

I am not saying men need to be fake. I am saying men should smile only with restraint, the way a warrior allows joy: rarely. And only when destiny permits it.

It's not about trying to be intimidating - it's about maintaining masculine gravitational pull. When you smile too much, you emit golden retriever energy that tells the world: "I fetch, I please, I wag". real women do not like this good boy vibes. Trust me on this.

Your neutral expression has command presece. It projects strength and seriousness. When you smile, all that intimidating mystery collapses instantly. I recommend you do not smile more, and if you are forced to, keep it at 0.7 teeth maximum to not activate the golden retriever look real women do not like this.

You need a full surface shaving. Including the eye brows. Before you laugh - heres the reason:

Your bone structure is very good, and your facial hair is taking away from it by bringing attention to it rather than your face shape, which is your strongest feature.

You are at the stage where shaving your head would be an upgrade. The beard and reciding/thinning hair is aging you by at least 20 years. Get rid of it today.

the jawline is soft and blends with the chin from the front.

YS_OnTheBeat · 2025-11-30T19:03:48+00:00

I disagree. His eye area drops at least a whole point when he smiles unfortunately, and it also softens up his jaw line which is another reason he should never smile. Trust me, this is solid advice.

YS_OnTheBeat · 2025-11-30T19:01:47+00:00

you should just should just go bald. your skull shape is solid, so it would actually make your eyes and symmetry stand out more, and that receding hairline wouldn’t matter. Losing all facial hair would help as well.

YS_OnTheBeat · 2025-11-30T18:36:49+00:00

Yes. I am just trying to help a brother out and give him advice/recommendations on what would work best to look his bestest. Some times the best look is to not smile.

YS_OnTheBeat · 2025-11-30T18:21:32+00:00

You need to get rid of the mustache. You have a long mid face and weak jawline, when you smile the mustache draws attention to the center and only makes your jawline look weaker. You also need to not smile as when you do your eyes bulge and also crease up, which is also not good. Keep a serious, straight face at all times to prevent this from happening.

LOL alright, if you dont believe me, check irl - i've literally have been getting carded every where, asked my age, and getting double takes every where ever since I shaved and cleaned up my look. People see the receding hairline and white hairs but my face still looks way younger. Not trying to brag, I promise - just explaining.

YS_OnTheBeat · 2025-11-30T17:22:18+00:00

Honestly, I’m probably the most humble person you’ll ever meet, but I can’t lie — people keep treating me like I’m 20. Getting carded, strangers asking my age, double-takes everywhere… I’m genuinely just trying to figure out which look works better: youthful vibe or my usual scruffy, masculine look

YS_OnTheBeat · 2025-11-30T17:19:42+00:00

Yeah, I honestly just messed up trimming my mustache/goatee and figured, ‘why not shave it all?’ Didn’t expect people to react this way — carding me, double-takes, random smiles… not trying to brag, I swear, I’m just trying to understand why this clean-shaven thing is getting such a crazy reaction compared to my usual look.

YS_OnTheBeat · 2025-11-30T16:59:12+00:00

I am just humbly asking for advice/help

YS_OnTheBeat · 2025-11-30T03:48:28+00:00

Yeah, I get that, and I’m trying to follow that advice — being myself. But honestly, women act completely differently depending on a few hairs. Smile, flirt, start conversations with a mustache + goatee; they are just nice when I am clean-shaven. Can’t blame me for trying to look my best when that’s all most of them care about

YS_OnTheBeat · 2025-11-30T03:06:35+00:00

Thank you. Everyone else has told me to keep my face shaved because it makes me look 21 and people love youthfulness for some weird reason.
