And some 68per cent agree that skin ageing is a natural process that can\u2019t be stopped.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">This relaxed attitude to ageing does not mean men do not care about how they look and are happy to wander around looking like a scruff.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">In an era of the selfie, Instagram and Snapchat, it seems young men are particularly paranoid about their looks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Mintel said: \u2018True to the \u2018so vain\u2019 words of Carly Simon, some two in five men say they check themselves in the mirror throughout the day, rising to 65per cent of those aged 16-24.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018What\u2019s more, almost one in five men enjoy taking selfies, rising to 35per cent of 16-24s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018And while 25-34-year-old men are most likely to say they like posting pictures of themselves on social media at 39per cent, some 13per cent of those aged 45-54 are not averse to uploading the odd image too.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Associate Director for Beauty  Personal Care at Mintel, Roshida Khanom, said: \u2018Today\u2019s older men are brimming with self-confidence, with high proportions thinking that they look good for their age and feeling confident about the way they look.<\/p>\n<p>        <img loading=\"lazy\"

\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"imageCaption\">Mintel says that Britain&#8217;s older men are adopting a relaxed attitude towards ageing with the majority of men agreeing that ageing is acceptable, thanks to the likes of role models like Colin Firth, 56, pictured<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018Following role models such as Pierce Brosnan, Hugh Grant and Colin Firth, Britain\u2019s older men are adopting a relaxed attitude towards ageing with the majority of men agreeing that ageing is acceptable, and that skin ageing is a natural process.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018As many as half of men believe that a healthy diet is enough to maintain the appearance of skin and 39per cent feel that skincare products contain unnecessary chemicals.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">As a result, Mintel said sales of skin care products for men are expected to fall this year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Miss Khanom said: \u2018Whilst advertising in the women\u2019s facial skincare category often features photo-shopping to optimise the appearance of skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, such images may not appeal to men.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018Allowing skin to look aged but healthy may instead have greater resonance.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Mintel said the rise of the hipster and their beard has created an opportunity for personal care product manufacturers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">It said: \u2018More than half of males agree that it is fashionable to have a beard.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018Usage of beard products has risen from 18per cent in 2016 to 23per cent in 2017 and almost two in five men say they pay more attention to their facial hair than their facial skin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018The beard trend may have evolved to a more flexible approach with men shaping their facial hair rather than sporting full beards or opting for a clean shave.\u2019\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>            <!-- ad: http:\/\/mads.dailymail.co.uk\/v2\/us\/health\/none\/article\/other\/inread_player.html --><\/p>\n<h3
