Studies have shown it may take as little as seven seconds for people to form an opinion of you. The good news for most of us is that it is not so much about looks, but personal grooming and how we carry ourselves.</span></span></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <br /></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">I caught up with <b>Lionel Lim</b> - a certified style coach cum image consultant, personal trainer, sports <a name='more'></a>nutritionist and published author, and asked him for tips on how to look good.

If we don’t wear clothes, we feel naked. In the same way, if we don’t groom ourselves, we feel incomplete. If I were to define grooming, it would mean looking presentable and feeling comfortable within the accepted social norms.</span></span></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> &nbsp;</div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> </div> <a href="" name="more"></a><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <b><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><span><br /></span></span></span></b></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <b><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><span>&nbsp;</span><i>Is grooming very much different for males and females?</i></span></span></b></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">Lionel: Well, if you ask me, although males and females are different biologically, but when it comes to grooming, there’s nothing much to separate both genders as it really boils down to how well you know yourself.</span></span></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <br /></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <b><i><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></span></i></b></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <b><i><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">Can you give us 3 tips in terms of grooming ourselves?</span></span></i></b></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">Lionel: My first tip is to advise readers to start a proper skincare routine, if you don’t have one. This means using a cleanser, toner and moisturizer twice daily. I know of many people who are still using soap to wash their face. Never use soap to wash your face as your face is slightly acidic with a ph of 5.5. Soaps strip away the natural moisturizing factors in your skin. And even if you have oily skin, you still need to moisturize your skin. Just make sure you choose a serum moisturizer that normally comes with a pump.</span></span></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <br /></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">Second, it is best to stick to colours that flatter your skintone. Wear the right colours and you will look younger, more energetic and professional. Wear the wrong colours and you will look the direct opposite – tired, old and sickly.</span></span></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <br /></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">Third, I must emphasise on the posture, whether it is standing, sitting or squatting. Many people I have observed like to slouch and this does not give you a good impression in the eyes of others. In fact, people will think you are just lazy. And besides being taken as lazy, you may also have lots of body problems later in life such as back pain, shoulder aches, weak knees etc.</span></span></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <br /></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <b><i><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></span></i></b></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <b><i><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">What happens during your grooming workshops?</span></span></i></b></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <br /></div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">Lionel: I call my grooming workshops <b>‘The Visual Art of Looking Good’</b>.
