Depends on the guy - a certain Mr Depp who is widely appreciated - so I understand - is certainly not averse to a spot of make-up, and it looks great. But some of the more manly guys on here, like my OH, would just look stupid (or feel stupid, resulting in them looking stupid, which is the same thing).
Is your brother very popular?
Brother-in-law was a complete ladies man in his younger days.
He is now well tamed by his missus.0 -

The snag is that the tweed used for KM is likely to be from the isle of China and costs far less...not that you would know by their retail price mind.
From hearsay, KM marks up X 12 from ex factory cost (ex factory £10, RP £120) ...in the olden days, used to be X 2.6 (ex factory £10, RP £26).
The extra mark up now goes into higher retail rents, rates and Directors pockets...sales staff are on min wage mostly.0 -

It's only polite to pull out, else it would have been messy.
