The 32-year-old actor– best known for playing teacher Will Schuester in musical TV drama 'Glee' – claims his biggest beauty secret is his unusual choice of product for his locks, which he says makes them smooth and soft.
He said: "My hair is very soft, right? It's because I put Lubriderm in it. It's just body lotion.
"I used to use gel and products, but my hair got kind of hard. Then, one day I ran out of whatever I was using and that was the only thing there, this lotion. It ended up being the best my hair ever looked."
Matthew's hair is often the subject of jokes in 'Glee' but he insists he doesn't mind because everyone is mocked on the show.
He told heat magazine: "Everyone kind of gets made fun of in the show and that's the whole point.
"There's a bit in the episode we're just shooting about my 'butt-chin'."
