Top 10 most searched beauty brands for men

We love men who aren’t afraid to throw away the toxic masculinity and admit they're just as into beauty as their female counterparts. 

So when we found out that LOOKFANTASTIC had gathered the Google search data of Australian men to see just exactly what it is they’re looking for when it comes to all things beauty, grooming, hair care and even sexual health, we have to admit our ears did prick up a bit.

Keen to know what’s going on in the heads of the men that walk among us everyday? Honestly, same…
