Many British men are secretly wearing make-up to hide their imperfections, a survey has revealed.
According to the findings, 1 in 10 men have turned to cosmetics to enhance their appearance, with men from Newcastle most likely to wear make-up, followed closely by men who come from Essex. For a visual cue think Geordie Shore and TOWIE.
Of the 1,831 men polled by luxury designer discount site HushHush.com, 11% admitted to wearing make-up: 52% put slap on regularly and 22% wear it every day.
