Kiehl’s Magic Elixir / Strengthening and Hydrating Hair Oil-in-Cream / Deeply Restorative Smoothing Hair Oil Concentrate

This week, one of my favourite cosmetic companies, Kiehl’s, sent me a trio of after-wash hair care to try out and I have to say, me and the other half were pretty damn impressed. Now he has really thick, curly (really curly) hair that’s devilishly prone to dryness and frizziness. I on the other hand have…

Anthony Logistics Mint And White Tea SPF 25 Lip Balm

Well my Anthony Logistics for men blood orange lip balm finally ran out, it was a match made in heaven. I thought therefore I might try its partner product with Mint and White tea. This also contains a mineral SPF with a factor of 25 (titanium dioxide) so is great for taking with me as…

Liz Earle For Men Try-Me Kit

I probably should have done this as my first post on Liz Earle, but better late than never. I’d heard so many things about this company from friends and bloggers alike that I knew it was time to investigate. The funny thing was is that 2 years ago, I spent about 4 months working in…

The Body Shop Tea Tree Blemish Night Fade Lotion

Continuing on the theme of the last post, blemished skin, I always find it difficult finding a night treatment. During the day your skin is in protect-mode and during the night it’s in repair-mode. During the day you’ll always need something lighter that will just maintian natural barrier function and doesn’t really need many treatment…

Zirh Skin Care and Shaving

You may or may not have heard of Zirh before. They’re a brand that are relatively new to the scene here in the UK, but they’ve exploded with a bit of a bang and I have been informed that they’ve been around for 20 years or so in the US. I was sent the range…

Molton Brown Skin Firming Lipoamino Hydrator / Londinium
A good few months back, actually the beginning of easter, I was sent these two fabulous products through from Molton Brown who wanted to give me loads of time to live with the products before deciding if I’d like to write about them before their launch, this week. Needless to say, the products were superb…

This is a stunning mask and/or overnight treatment with Red Seaweed, White Tea, Hyaluronic Acid, Pure Essential Oils and vitamins A, B5, C, D and E. Created by Urth, a producer of Asian inspired skincare created especially for men. I have to say it’s absolutely amazing. I will warn you however that as you apply it…

Liz Earle For Men Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser

I’ve always seen Liz Earle about, particularly when I worked with Clinique at John Lewis in Cheadle a couple of years ago, but never actually bought anything. I can honestly say I’ve missed out big time. On visiting John Lewis in Liverpool I strayed over to their counter for a peruse and what I peruse…

Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant

So what is so good about this cream? I see it absolutely everywhere I go, no matter which shop, department store, airport, airplane or country I’m in – there it is, beaming away with its gorgeous white packaging and red door logo. Designed to calm, protect and hydrate for, you guessed it, 8 hours; this…
