The Ginkgo effect: Good Memory = Better Skin

The Ginkgo effect: Good Memory = Better Skin

How may times have you forgotten where you’ve laid down your keys? What about your wallet? For me, all of the time. So I’ve tried taking Ginkgo Biloba (a dietary supplement to help treat memory loss), only to then forget to take it…  Hey I’m trying!  Since it’s quite possible that you have heard about this memory loss supplement, I’ll defer taking credit for introducing it to you.

A different approach to skincare!

A different approach to skincare!

  It’s always fun trying out brands made with “us men” in mind. Sure it can be a lot of work, but how else can I help you sift through the hundreds and hundreds of items out there?   What keeps me loving it, in spite of the work, is when I run into a string of really impressive products, all from one [...]

What ingredients does your skin really need?

What ingredients does your skin really need?

There are hundreds of grooming products on the market that work on getting ALL of your attention by promising the world in a bottle… Hey trust me, I get just as confused as the next guy! And since your emails tell me that you share the same feeling, I thought I would help you comb through the landscape [...]

Grapefruits

Grapefruits

Yes, I know that this is a men’s grooming site, but you should know by now that there’s always a method to my madness. So let me begin with this statement- “I love grapefruits!” So much so, that it borders on an addiction, but uhh… that’s another issue entirely! Anyway, there’s never a time when I’m [...]

2012 Beard Styles

2012 Beard Styles

I think that the crystal ball will agree with me when I say, “beard styles will continue to become more popular in 2012.” But this doesn’t mean barbers will be losing their shaving business, since there will always be a need and desire to get a smooth, clean shave. What I predict is that “us” [...]

Alcohol. Works as a drink, but not on your face!

Alcohol. Works as a drink, but not on your face!

Did you know that hikers apply rubbing alcohol to their feet and and guitar players to their fingers, to harden their skin? What a great idea if it makes hiking and guitar playing easier! I’m not convinced; however, that the benefits have the same value when applied to the face. Sure, as a last resort it [...]

Lip Protection.

Lip Protection.

When your lips are chapped they hurt. Whether it’s cold, windy or dry like here in Southern California, your lips need protection. With cooler weather quickly approaching, putting a layer of protection on your lips is just as important as layering your clothes.  Although some lip balms are more effective than others, all were created [...]

Too macho for a moisturizer?

Too macho for a moisturizer?

My most recent trip to New Your City took me to two different department stores in 3 different areas.  And like the title says, I ran into a few challenges! Unfortunately, there were many men who thought that a simple face moisturizer was still reserved for ladies. But little did they know how prepared I was to disprove this notion! You [...]

Age defying steps to skincare!

Age defying steps to skincare!

The more cities I visit, the more I realize that not every man deals with the same grooming concerns. And of course I shouldn’t be surprised! But I am, because it makes me realize how important it is to have a wide range of men’s grooming advice! This weekend showed me that men of all age groups and ethnic backgrounds have concerns about aging [...]
