I’ll be totally honest, I didn’t know who Levison Wood was until now and it’s been very interesting to discover a bit more about him and see some of his work. A British historian and ex-Officer of the British Parachute Regimen, Levison is a globe trotter, adventurer and explorer.

In 2014 Levison explored 4000 miles of the Nile on a 9 month expedition that was broadcast on Channel 4. His latest book ‘Walking the Himalayas’, that I was very honoured to recieve a signed copy of, accounts his latest 1700 mile adventure exploring some of the most remote places on earth.
So why Levison Wood?
Clinique has always been a very anonymous brand in terms of having a face or personality. It always relied on it’s products, clinical dermatological approach and market dominance. But particularly over the last 10 years, the men’s grooming industry has boomed with Clinique for Men going from being one of only a handful of male skincare lines, to being one of hundreds. Whilst the brand continues to be one of my absolute favourites and go-to, it definitely makes sense for them to expand beyond their product-focused approach. I’d be interested to hear your thoughts!
Alongisde Britain’s very own Levison Wood, Clinique have also taken on Korean/American actor Daniel Dae Kim (you might remember him from Lost).

Clinique For Men 2 in 1 Skin Hydrator + Beard Conditioner
This oil-free formulation keeps beard hair in check whilst hydrating the skin underneath. Whilst I don’t sport a beard, I occasionally sport a little facial hair here and there and if left unshaven, can dehydrate the skin underneath slightly.
Clinique For Men™ 2 in 1 Skin Hydrator & Beard Conditioner. £28. Clinique Online
This is perfect when you’re trying not to over moisturise the skin underneath as growing any facial hair often changes the balance of the skin underneath it. Also the healthier you keep the pores and follicles on your face, the better and more magnificent your beard will be!
