He may have the crown, but his sharp style and confidence go way beyond the stage. Stanford, the reigning World’s Perfect Young Man 2025, sat down with Aaron to share his top grooming secrets from skincare and haircare to lifestyle habits that keep him looking and feeling his best. Here’s how this king stays sharp and crown-worthy.
Moisturize after a shower
Stepping out of the shower, Stanford always moisturizes while his skin is still a little damp. “Water strips your skin of natural oils, so locking in hydration keeps it smooth and prevents ashiness,” he explains.
Keep a simple skincare routine
He keeps his face routine straightforward: a cleanser to remove dirt and oil, a toner to balance the skin, and a moisturizer with sunscreen. “Consistency is key,” he says.
Find your signature fragrance
Fragrance is his secret weapon. “Deodorant is non-negotiable, but a good cologne can make you unforgettable,” he shares. Stanford keeps two on hand: a fresh scent for daytime and a richer scent for evenings or special occasions.
Keep your smile clean
A bright, fresh smile is non-negotiable. “I brush twice a day, floss, use mouthwash, and scrape my tongue. Whitening strips can give that extra glow. Fresh breath makes you instantly more approachable,” he says.
Stay on top of haircare
His haircut sets the tone for his style. Stanford trims every two weeks and maintains his facial hair meticulously. “Little details matter, whether it’s a beard, mustache, or clean shave,” he explains.
Clean up your nails
“You don’t need a weekly manicure, but trimmed and clean nails are essential,” he says. “People notice even small details.”
Dress to impress every day
Stanford emphasizes fresh, well-fitting clothes daily. “It doesn’t matter if it’s gym wear or casual. Clean clothes show respect for yourself and others, and it makes you stand out,” he says.
Manscape responsibly
Grooming isn’t just about your face. “Keep body hair neat, tidy your eyebrows, and pay attention to overall presentation. A little effort goes a long way,” he explains.
Keep your space tidy
His environment reflects discipline. “A clean living space shows maturity, and it actually makes you feel better when you get home,” Stanford shares.
Change your bedding weekly
“Sliding into clean sheets is one of life’s simple pleasures,” he says. “It keeps your space smelling fresh, prevents skin breakouts, and just feels amazing.”
