Grooming Products make great Gifts for Him!

Do the men in your life worry about painful ingrown hairs or joke about their increasing laugh lines (laugh is code for worry) appearing around their eyes? Well, it’s time to turn their whinging into satisfaction. Men are slowly coming around to the idea that grooming products are beneficial – for their appearance and confidence. But we all know that some men find it hard to look for the appropriate products for their grooming regime. So, why not make it easier for him and check out our grooming men gift ideas, perfect for Fathers Day… and some tips to impart on the clueless!

Shaving Presents for Men

Our great shaving products such as shaving soap and pure shaving brush make practical gift ideas for men. With shaving soap flavours such as almond and sage, he will smell a treat! And the shaving brush will help him get that smooth shave he has been wanting.

Shaving Tips

Follow the below steps to ensure your skin stays nice and smooth after you shave:

Cleanse – Before you shave, make sure you cleanse. Cleaning the face lifts the bristles off your face and gives a much cleaner and smoother shave.

Shaving soap – Use a foaming gel or a shave soap, which can be applied using a shaving brush.

Moisturise – Finally, always make sure you moisturise.  A good moisturiser not only helps with hydration but also sun protection, skin smoothing and even helps fight wrinkles.

Face Cleansing Presents for Men

Our Face Care Pack is the ultimate male gift idea – make the face cleansing regime easy for the male in your life with this perfect mens gift including pre shave oil, face cleansing milk, face moisturiser and shaving soap.

Cleansing Tips

Use Lukewarm WaterWhen you wash your face you should never have the temperature too hot or too cold. Water that is too hot can cause capillary damage and make capillary veins visible on the face such as around the edges of the nose, the cheeks and under the eyes. Lukewarm is the ideal temperature of water when cleansing the face.

Never Use Body SoapSoap made for the body is much too harsh to use on the face… and is a common mistake made by men. It will not only dry out the sensitive skin of the face but it will also cause it to produce too much oil in overcompensation for the dryness.

ModerationDo not wash your face more than twice a day and gently massage your face with circular motions. The number one rule is to not scrub. Over washing and scrubbing can cause skin to become irritated.
