Product of the Month

Have you ever had to apply 2 layers of moisturizer to your face to guarantee that it wouldn’t look… “dry“? You know what I mean, when your face looks like you missed a few spots? (ok well, maybe that’s just me…) Either way, the average guy doesn’t like anything too heavy applied to his face. But, he does want whatever he uses [...]

A few months ago I was asked to write a post on the best colognes for the summer… An idea that I couldn’t wait to get started on! Hey, summertime is the time to be outside enjoying the warm air, so with this in mind, fresh subtle fragrances should be the goal for the list! First [...]

With so many body washes being marketed to men, I wondered if bar soaps stood a chance in this rapidly growing segment of the market? So, I decided to try out as many bar soaps as I could realistically get a hold of to see if there were any that could compete with their ever popular [...]

The springtime couldn’t smell any better! With a mixture of artemesia, mandarin, violet leaves, nutmeg, Virginia cedarwood… and a few other great ingredients, Burberry Touch for Men delivers the versatility of day and night all in one bottle! It’s often described as “sweet, subtle and masculine” all at the same time, which is why this cologne can easily be [...]

In honor of Earth Month (Earth Day is April 22nd), it couldn’t be more fitting to have Aveda’s all natural men’s line representing this month’s Product of the Month. From Aveda Men’s impressive grooming line, I chose their Pure-Formance Exfoliating Shampoo. The choice wasn’t difficult. A weekly shampoo, that features the exfoliating ability of removing dead skin cells, excess oil, [...]

  Hey, that’s what it’s called… And, for good reason! This month’s POTM gives kudos to an item developed and sold by one of the oldest barbershops in London – Geo. F. Trumper. I always enjoy reviewing products that have been successfully developed by barbershops. Especially the ones that have not only mastered their ingredients, but have also opened doors for many other barbershops [...]

Yes, I know a nightcap is a “sometimes” much needed drink before bed… But,  you know our faces need a much needed drink from time to time as well. Especially, since the cold air has apparently no interest in leaving any time soon. So let’s make a toast to an Australian night cream that gets [...]

Through reading a few of my posts, I’m sure many of you can quickly recognize that I am a big fan of lather shaving creams. And you don’t have to go very far to see that December’s POTM, shared with you one of the best shaving creams on the market (See post: 2010 Must Have [...]

What?… Did you think I would forget the sole reason men’s grooming exists? Of course not! Over 85% of men shave, and over 85% of the questions I get begin or end with a shaving question.  So, it would only be right to search far and wide for a shaving cream that will make your shave “that much better”. [...]

Well, it could be. Better yet, it should be! Anyone who knows me, knows that this isn’t a fragrance I commonly would wear… Sephora calls my preferred choice of cologne’s notes to be “Woody Oriental” (i.e. Hanae Mori or BLV Notte Pour Homme). But a birthday gift should always be used, right…?  Thanks sis!   [...]
