Shaving Reviews
Any top shaving tips? Loads! Here are my essentials: Always shave with the direction of hair growth and rarely go against it unless absolutely necessary (to correct any mistakes for example). Exfoliate the skin gently beforehand and afterwards make sure you apply a dedicated aftershave lotion to sooth the skin and prevent dryness, redness and blemishes. Regular exfoliation of the neck will help to prevent ingrown hairs and gentle chemical exfoliation of existing ingrown hairs will help to unblock them.

Wilkinson Sword Hydro 5 Power Select
What’s your favourite razor? It may be a little premature, but this is already my grooming tool of 2013. Now I’m fairly new to the world of the battery powered, wet-shave razors, mainly because I honestly thought it was a load of all rubbish, a fad designed to sell the same old garbage to men…

Raz*War Black Edition
A while ago, I was thrilled to try out El Ché, a 3 blade razor from RazWar, a company that has strayed away from the mass brand dominance and has created a truly excellent system of wet razors. This time though, it’s all about the Black Edition, a chunkier, 4 blade system that has provided…

Billy Jealousy Grooming
I was lucky enough to receive a collection of Billy Jealousy grooming supplies after trying out their shampoo and conditioner a couple of months back. I have to say that trying them out has been great fun. Sucker Punch Face Scrub With the scrubbing power of Tahitian volcanic black sand and crushed Walnut shell, it…

Philips SensoTouch 3D RQ1280/22
Philips were kind enough to send over the Philips SensoTouch 3D RQ1280/22 Razor by the Philips Outreach Team who rightly thought that I’d love to try out and review their flagship device. Because I have rather feeble facial hair, this device has been tried and tested by both myself and my step-father who has very fast…

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…

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…

Wilkinson Sword Hydro Skincare
Now, you may or may not have read my glittering review of the Wilkinson Sword Hydro 5 Razor. I’d picked one up at a student fair a couple of years back and have thoroughly enjoyed it every since. I used to be a biiiig Gillette fan, swearing by the Fusion, until I got hold of…

Anthony Logistics Pre-Shave Oil
Some of you may not have encountered shave oils before and this is because they’ve fallen out of favour due to the increased popularity of shave foam gels supposedly offering a ‘complete shave’. However much of a ‘complete shave’ your gel offers, it still can’t beat the use of a quick and easy pre-shave oil…

Wilkinson Sword Hydro 5
Now, despite having the facial hair of a menopausal woman, I do occasional need to shave, and having very fair and easily irritated skin, its something I find tricky. Now, this is not a new product I’ll be by any means but this has been my razor of choice for some time after picking on…
