It may not sound very macho, but it seems three million of our men wear make-up regularly.
According to research, fake tan, concealer, eyeliner and hair dye are among the products that one in seven can't do without. Eye creams, anti-ageing products, face powder, nail varnish, mascara and lipstick are also popular.
And for many, this is not just a one-off flirtation. A quarter of those who use cosmetics do so at least once a week.
James Endersby, of Opinium Research, which carried out the poll, said: 'There is an increasing trend that men are just as aware about their appearance as women and like to take care of the way they look.
'We're living in an age where male celebrities are seen wearing "manscara" and "guyliner" and everybody thinks it normal. It looks like metrosexual man is here to stay.' The figures certainly suggest that.
After all, one in five of those who wears make-up puts it on to go to work - and one in four would not be comfortable going to the pub without it.
Nor do their womenfolk seem to have a problem with this. A third of men who wear makeup borrow cosmetics from their wives or girlfriends, with four in ten women happy to lend it - even helping them apply it.

Of course, men wearing make-up is not an altogether new phenomenon. The New Romantics often used cosmetics to achieve their look in the 1980s.
And some things never change. Men take about 21 minutes to prepare for a night out... while a woman still needs 41 minutes.
