How much does your man know about your beauty routine?
Men don't need to know everything do they?! Especially when it comes to shaving, waxing and bleaching. In fact, women keep 8 beauty secrets from their partner.
Researchers found women hate the thought of their other half knowing they have to pluck, wax and shave their bodies - and as such keep hair removal from toes, chin, body and bikini line a deeply hidden secret.
In addition, removing hard skin from feet and maintaining a hairless upper lip by eradicating any sign of a moustache are also kept private.
While the large majority would never let on to their fella if they were wearing body slimming underwear.
Siobhan McDermott, General Manager for feelunique which conducted the study of 2,000 women said: "This study shows just how private women are about their beauty regime - no one wants their partner to think they aren't naturally beautiful with wonderful smooth skin.
"As such, women go to great lengths to hide certain aspects of their beauty regime from their partner, conducting a multitude of preening tasks behind closed doors.
"When ladies get more comfortable with a partner they might let a few of their secrets slip, but two thirds simply feel they are being more lady-like by tending to themselves in private."
The study shows many ladies would hate their partner to know they had to remove hairs from their noses on occasion. While others don't want him to know they often treat spots with toothpaste, or whiten their teeth.
Many girls claim their other half has no idea they wear chicken fillets in their bra on a night out, or have to exfoliate daily.
Two thirds of ladies polled reckon their partner is blissfully unaware of what is involved in their beauty routine - with a third keeping it all a closely guarded secret.
In fact, a third of women reckon their partner would be absolutely mortified if he knew the true extent of what took place behind the bathroom door for half an hour every day.
And 35% of ladies believe their boyfriend or husband would be completely turned off if he saw them doing their most intimate pampering.
The spokeswoman for feelunique comments: "There are many women who never want to get so comfortable with a partner they divulge everything about their beauty routine.
"And many intend to remain tight-lipped about their bathroom habits forever more.
"It can be nice for a man to think his other half looks amazing without knowing how much effort it took."
