Plastic in high esteem: the increase in the eyes, getting rid of the "third century", injection — Arsenal men's procedures is growing every year.

3. India

4. Russia

In our country, a beautiful man — a strong man. In every sense of the word. Not only oblique seven feet at the shoulders, but a stable position in society. And light hair and eyes, big hands, confident gait — about the ideal of beauty describe Russian women. With the cosmetics of our men is still difficult: while in the capital, one after another opened a fashionable Barber-shops, in the regions still indecent to moisturize lips with a balm (at least publicly). Not to mention matting powder, or, say, cream for the face. What Patriotic men are willing to spend time and money shaving, perfumes and care of the oral cavity.

5. France

The reputation of the French as an experienced seducer affects their appearance, in General, they always look well-groomed and stylish. It is not only in the hair and neat stubble, the French are closely following things: for example, regularly go for teeth whitening, manicure, I use drops for the eyes. As for clothes, solid place in the wardrobe of the average citizen of France given to accessories: scarves, shawls, gloves, hats, and glasses. Hence the sense of reasonableness image.

6. UK

If the countries of Asia in the cult is being built light skin, in England it's the opposite. The most popular procedure among men — the application of bronzer. Albion was not spared and the fashion for the main masculine attribute of our time — the beard. Although women, according to polls, prefer men with soft faces: without the massive lower jaw, thin, clean-shaven, with lips of medium size. David Beckham is perhaps the canonical sample English male beauty. By the way, tattoos — another "fad" of the Englishman. Drawings on the body is every fifth inhabitant of the country.

7. Italy

"The main thing is to suit sat" — that is now the creed of the Italians, passionate fans of fashion, fine fabrics and interesting prints. Italian men love and know how to care for themselves, without losing the masculinity and staying attractive to the opposite sex. In Italian there is even a special term "sprezzatura", which can be roughly translated as the ability to be detail-as if by chance, ironically, to the feeling of unbearable lightness and carelessness.

8. USA

To replace the metrosexuals come lumbarsacral. From the English "lumbersexual" — that is to say, a "sexy lumberjack". Lumbarsacral — powerful guys with bulging torso, leaving not a hint of androgyny, tattooed, and — certainly! — bearded. Than cladistia, the better. Plus, plaid shirt, straight jeans and hoodies — that's the look of not only the Rangers of Utah, but the inhabitants of Manhattan.

9. Brazil

A typical Brazilian is a mix of the most attractive features borrowed from the different Nations. Olive skin — the legacy of the Portuguese, the bright eyes of the Germans. Brown hair in combination with tanned skin, "six-pack abs" as a mandatory part of the image (and than still to Shine on the beaches of Copacabana, when you're wearing only shorts and a baseball cap?), carefully adjusted at the surgeon's nose, ears and lips. Will be in Rio de Janeiro, notice how cool they look local men compared with local women who are friends with cellulite and excess weight, but not too shy to wear crop tops and mini skirts. Brazilian guys are susceptible to a curvy shape, and this is yet another indisputable plus in their tanned embossed karma.
