What are your grooming & hygiene routines/regimens?

Thread Starter 
I'm just wondering what the procedures are that different men go through after they get up in the morning before they leave home, as well as before they go to bed at night.
Also, if you do something different to prepare for special occasions or events, such as dates, parties, functions, gatherings, etc., etc...
Try giving as much detail as possible (if you want to name certain products, that's great too), and maybe even making a step-by-step enumerated list of what you do in the order that you do it.
Thanks!

I believe in taking care of myself and a balanced diet and rigorous exercise routine. In the morning if my face is a little puffy I'll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

^ This thread was asking for that. But honestly, I keep it pretty simple: 1.) Brush teeth / mouthwash 2.) Wash face and pat dry 3.) Fix hair after all clothes are put on 4.) Turn my swag on as I leave the house

Shit, shower and shave. I usually pick a few boogers when I'm in the shower, but I've been know to chip out a few boogers while I'm taking a shit too.

Skip this stuff. Go straight to chainsaws and hookers.

Haha, of course.

I get up, brush my teeth, wash my face with some exfoliating scrub (as I have terrible acne) and pat dry with a towel, shave, and leave.

If I'm feeling sassy I'll tussle my hair a bit before going out.

In all seriousness, I do have one of those masks and it helps.

For special occasions:

I wait till the last minute to shave, I wait till the last minute to put the shirt on 'cause you feel fresh. These are rules to live by, shave last minute, haircut the day of, maybe some tanning and the gym. You gotta do the guido handbook.

-breakfast, shower, lotion/sunblock, floss, brush teeth, mouthwash, dry and fix hair, deodorant or cologne get dressed in whatever I plan to go out in. I never need to shave.

I get up at 5:00, either workout or yoga depending on the day, then take a shower. Put in mousse right after I get out, go get my clothes on, then come back to put a little pomade in there as well. Then I have breakfast and watch an episode of Arrested Development + listen to some U2 music, to make sure I've got my wits about me for the day. 7:45, I go to high school, primed and ready!

I wake up, masturbate furiously to an Amy Reid scene off Spankwire. Go downstairs and eat a strawberry frosted pop-tart and drink a cup of Illy coffee with a splash of makers mark, down three valium and a few vicodin. Go back upstairs and snort a line of blow off a hookers ass, assuming shes still in bed and hasnt left at the sound of my morning vommit session. Post my daily ad in the "casual encounters" section of Craigslist, then its off to work/teach at the church.
