Whiskey After-Shave Splash

Whiskey After-Shave Splash

After-shave works to soothe the skin and helps heal those small nicks you get from the “I’m 30 minutes late for work” shaves. But not all of the after-shave scents are something to appreciate.

Well, the folks from PGS have come up with an intriguing scent in The Whiskey After-Shave Splash. It’s alcohol free, and instead uses natural, more gentle ingredients including sea kelp extract, blue-green algae, organic aloe vera juice, and tea tree essential oil. The potion is infused with the whiskey scent and then packed into an amber glass bottle with a flow-limiter cap.

If you’re wondering what to expect from an after-shave that smells like whiskey, look no further than the product description itself: “reminiscent of an ol’ yachtsman relaxing below deck at the end of a long day on the wild ocean, a favorite Scotch in hand.”

Schick Hydro 5 Power Select

Schick Hydro 5 Power Select

Fortunately for all of us, Schick is following the Gillette Fusion ProGlide in working to improve a man’s shaving experience without trying to once again one-up the competition with yet another blade. I think we can all agree five is plenty.

The Hydro 5 Power Select comes with three speed settings so that you can customize the power of the razor’s vibrations. The equipped hydrating gel reservoir will continuously supply aloe vera and vitamin E to your face with a lubrication strip that’s said to last twice as long as other strips. Skin guards on each blade help to smooth out your skin and reduce irritation. The hidden flip trimmer will help you tidy up those lines, and a battery life indicator will make sure you don’t get stuck in the middle of your shave with no power.

Don’t worry, we’re sure Gillette will be back next year to counter.

Power Shave Collection | By The Art of Shaving

Power Shave Collection | By The Art of Shaving

It was only a matter of time after Gillette bought out The Art of Shaving before we would see high-tech gadgetry combined with traditional shaving products. The power shave collection includes:

  • A power razor that features a built-in indicator light to let you know when you need a new blade, an ergonomical, balanced and weighted handle, micro-pulses that reduce friction, and a spotlight to better see details in low-light or over shadows
  • A customizable stand that adjusts to your storage and display needs
  • A badger brush with either fine or pure badger hair (fine is softer) that lifts the beard with powered oscillations
  • A full size bundle of unscented shaving cream, shaving oil and after-shave balm

The razor, brush and stand are all decked out in polished chrome and black lacquered accents. If you’re still using cheap, disposable razors, now is as good a time as ever to upgrade.

Carzor | Card Shaped Razor & Mirror

It’s no secret that technology is a double-edged sword. It makes our lives a lot easier, but also makes it hard to slow down. For the man who’s constantly on the go, here’s another tool to add to your arsenal.

The Carzor is a razor and mirror that folds up and fits right into your wallet like a credit card, much like the epic CardSharp. So now when you wake up an hour late for work, you can one-up all of those women who are putting on their makeup at red lights.

There’s even a built-in scent strip included with each cartridge, available in mint, sandal, lemon, ocean and orange.

Bolin Webb Razors

Bolin Webb Razors

Bolin Webb is set on combining good design and high performance to create quality shaving products, and we’re pretty sure they’re off to a good start with the R1 and R1-S razors.

Inspiration comes from their passion for premium sports cars. The sleek curve of the handle, and color options such as the exact shades of red and yellow used by Ferrari, are enough to make any man stare in awe.

Every razor includes a durable lacquer finish to protect the painted coating, and a bacteria-resistant thermoplastic elastomer – enhancing both hygiene and grip. They’re also compatible with Gillette’s MACH3 cartridge. In other words, you need one of these… now.

Conair i-Stubble

Conair i-Stubble

Let’s face it, “designer stubble” is in. The ladies love it, thanks to the likes of George Clooney, Brad Pitt and David Beckham who are often seen sporting the five o’clock shadow. But the truth is, no matter how easy they make it look, pulling off stubble in a stylish manner takes a bit of maintenance. Enter the Conair i-Stubble (available in March – April).

The i-Stubble is a trimmer that takes most of the work out of getting the beard that others envy. Features include:

  • Electronic motorized length control system with 15 ultra-precise settings, so you can maintain your preferred facial hair style at all times
  • Electrochemically formed blades with a clean, sharp edge that provides the most accurate trims on every face (from a .4mm shadow to a short beard with easy digital display)
  • Floating contouring head, which tracks the curves of your face for accuracy and comfort
  • Ergonomic design

George Clooney, sorry buddy but you ain’t got nothin’ on technology. Yeah… just go with it.

Philips Norelco Stubble Trimmer

Philips Norelco Stubble Trimmer

Philips Norelco Stubble Trimmer promises to make a difference in the ongoing fight against facial hair, and if this little hygienic nugget does all that it says it can do, it’s a welcome addition to the facial care market for those of us who’ve never had the privilege of using an electric trimmer that could cut stubble worth a damn. This device is supposed to be a giant leap forward in that regard. According to the company, you don’t ever have to oil or replace the blades either, which means with an electric razor and the Stubble Trimmer batting cleanup, you never again have to drop money on those overpriced disposable razor cartridge replacements.

In addition to the easy care blades, the Stubble Trimmer from Philips Norelco also comes with nine different length setting, so you can get an even shave all over your face. That means less looking like an unkempt hobo and more Dr. Suave Cassanova. Technology is already making us smarter. Now it’s time to make us prettier. Of course, that’s for some of us more than others.

Baxter Blue Steel "Not a Replica" Straight Razor

Baxter Blue Steel “Not a Replica” Straight Razor

If you want a close, precise shave, you head for a straight razor. No question. It’s a lost art that requires a capable tool. The Baxter Blue Steel “Not a Replica” straight razor is such a tool..and it isn’t all just good looks.

With a matte black styling reminiscent of firearms, the Blue Steel looks like something out of the old west. The razor is predominantly hand-crafted in Michigan from Hart Steel – a metal that provides an extremely sharp, long-lasting edge for an impeccable shave.

To top it off, the Blue Steel can be purchased with a genuine Shell Cordovan leather sleeve, which is a type of hide taken from a specific part of the horse that’s tanned and polished. The whole package is a work of art, which is fitting for the Jackson Pollock-esque stubble beneath your chin.

It’s free, and we’ll keep you up-to-date with all of the cool stuff we find! Cars, clothes, video games, movies, gadgets, you name it!
