5 Grooming Essentials Every Man Should Own

- - No comments
A roundup of the skincare products every man should have in his grooming collection.
A targeted skincare regimen can make the world of difference when it comes to boosting your complexion and looking more fresh and alert. These are the must-have products that will kick-start your journey to becoming impeccably groomed… with minimal effort.

1. A FUNCTIONAL FACE WASH

A targeted face wash is the cornerstone of any solid skincare routine – it’s like a reset button for your face, refreshing your complexion by removing impurities that build up on the skin’s surface every day and night. Select the ideal formula by considering your skin’s needs: those with an oily complexion will benefit from a cleanser that eliminates excess oil and unclogs pores, while those with flaky, tight facial skin should opt for a gentle cleanser with moisturising properties. A cleanser and exfoliator hybrid is also a great option for a truly clean and smooth finish. This one-step product purges dirt and oil like a face cleanser, while gently scrubbing away dead cells like an exfoliator, to reveal the fresh skin beneath.

2. MOISTURISER WITH SPF

Moisturiser is the star of the show when it comes to firming, hydrating and energising your skin. It leaves skin feeling smooth and supple, and helps soften fine lines, deep wrinkles, and other visible signs of ageing. Make sure to select one that contains an SPF to protect your skin from cancer, wrinkles, sunspots and other deleterious effects of sun exposure.

SHOP MOISTURISER



3. THE MULTI-PURPOSE SHAVING TREATMENT

A targeted shaving product is key for a comfortable, top-quality shaving experience. Look out for an all-in-one cream or balm that serves as a pre-shave treatment, shave cream and aftershave, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of all these products without any additional steps.

4. A SIGNATURE SCENT

An irresistible fragrance is an effortless way to add to your appeal and leave a lasting impression, without changing your look. Find one or two classic scents you really like, and try before you buy – each spray reacts differently with your unique body chemistry, so it’s a good idea to determine whether it really suits you before you commit. Typically woody, spicy or oriental scents are a good fit for the winter months, while lighter, citrusy scents work best in spring and summer.

SHOP SIGNATURE SCENTS



5. A NOURISHING LIP BALM

Having dry, cracked lips is never a good look and because the skin on your lips is thinner than it is on the rest of your body it’s even more prone dryness and cracking hence why applying a  nourishing lip balm regularly is key. Look out for balms with nourishing oils like sunflower, castor, or tea tree, and skin-smoothing butters like cocoa or shea as these will leave your lips looking soft and smooth.

Dior Joy 50ml EDP 1715

The last time the house of Dior launched a major fragrance pillar was in 1999, so we’re particularly excited about their latest offering, Joy. You'll know right off the bat that it's a Dior perfume by the gorgeous notes of Grasse rose and jasmine, but it’s the zesty bergamot and mandarin that gives it a youthful appeal that's sure to bring you much joy for years to come.
Calvin Klein Women 50ml EDP 1180

The breathtakingly beautiful bottle alone indicates that this new fragrance from Calvin Klein is no ordinary scent. Described as a woody floral, this new aroma blends fresh eucalyptus acorns and delicate orange flower petals with rich Alaskan cedarwood, for a scent as beautifully diverse as the women who inspire it.

SHOP NOW
Twilly d’Hermès 50ml EDP 1620

Named after the slender silk accessory that women often wrap around their wrists, hair or bag handles, Twilly d’Hermès is not your average French perfume. A joyous mix of tuberose, ginger and sandalwood, the first spritz is spicy, heady and feminine, but as it dries the scent takes on a more milky, powdery and dreamy quality, making it an unconventional yet sensuous fragrance that's easy to wear, but still makes a bold statement.
