Top 5 date prep tips

DA:Prepare

Preparing for that long awaited hot date is a crucial and stealthy process says dating guru Jo Barnett. Whether it’s for that all-important first date when you need to make a dazzling first impression, or for the sexy fourth encounter, buzzing with the promise of a slightly more intimate dalliance, you need to do the prep and you need to do it right.

Being empathic types who care deeply about your dating success and future happiness, we have lovingly compiled our top five pre-date prep tips for your reading pleasure.

1. Luscious locks

Ensuring you have clean, gloriously fragranced hair is essential before embarking on a date – especially the ones that involve cosy nights in or trips to the cinema, where amorous heads usually find themselves resting on willing shoulders.

Gentlemen, heed our warning. Don’t go crazy with the oily styling products. Nobody wants to run fingers through a greasy barnet during a passionate moment. Oh no.

 2. Don’t forget to spray

Ok, this may seem like an obvious one, but lets be honest, take one whiff of a sweaty tube carriage this summer and it’s quite clear that a few Londoners have forgotten/not sprayed enough of their anti-perspirant before leaving the house.

Dentyl Active’s survey investigating the dating habits of 1,000 Brits found that the biggest date turn off was bad body odour – with 46% in agreement.

So, before meeting that special someone, don’t forget a slightly more generous spritzing of a good quality deodorant after showering, otherwise they may end up running for the hills rather than your bed.

3. Less is more

This is one for the girls. It may be tempting to smother your face in inch-thick foundation to cover those pesky imperfections or stick on layers of false lashes in order to seduce gorgeous Greg from accounts, but we say minimum make-up is best.

The Brits questioned by Dentyl Active also agree – with a whopping 53% stating that women should “wear a little of everything, but it should look natural.”

The key is to spend ages applying ‘natural-looking’ makeup that looks like you are hardly wearing anything at all – because looking fabulous naturally is just how you roll darling.

4. Put down the razor

Forget those deceiving 90s style razor adverts wrongly depicting excitable females rubbing their hands gleefully against unnaturally smooth male chins. Most women love nothing better than the feel of some seriously sexy stubble. In fact, when Dentyl Active’s female participants were asked what the ideal amount of facial hair was on a man, a massive 40% said they preferred some stubble as opposed to a full on beard or a baby-soft clean-shaven face.

5. And breathe…

Just make sure it’s minty-fresh when you do. 38% of Dentyl Active’s survey takers said that bad breath is one of their top three turnoffs in a date – with a massive 89% admitting that they have worried about their own breath at times too. To ensure you feel ultra confident before meeting that charming chap or mysterious girl, give your teeth a good brush and gargle with Dentyl Active’s bacteria-fighting, two phase mouthwash for long lasting freshness.

The Dentyl Active range of alcohol free mouthwashes contain antibacterial ingredients – natural essential oils and Cetylpyridinium Chloride – CPC. Both ingredients, which have to be shaken together before swilling the mouthwash around the mouth, are proven to ‘bust’ oral bacteria which cause nasty breath. The bacteria and debris then stick to the clever mouthwash solution. When you rinse Dentyl Active out from the mouth you can see the bacteria, food debris and other deposits, removed and highlighted as small, brightly coloured masses in the sink. Now that’s just plain smart thinking from Dentyl Active!
