If you remember the villainous-turned-valiant character of Jamie Lannister from the HBO show, Game of Thrones, you know it’s nearly impossible to ignore Nikolaj Coster-Waldau’s presence on screen. The faint, fuzzy facial hair or his infectious smile – something about him draws us in. But, here’s what’s sexier: His thoughts on beauty. We spoke with Coster-Waldau, the global brand ambassador for male grooming brand L’Oréal Paris Men Expert, who gave us a peek into his grooming routine, fitness, and relationship with beauty.

“Well, I shower. I think that’s a good thing to keep clean (laughs). But on a serious note, I don’t have many tips. I wish I had a lengthy routine, but I usually do quick and easy things. For example, I have been using this hyaluronic acid serum for my skin, which has done wonders. My hair routine involves using a hair fixing wax to set and style my hair.”
