It doesn't matter which occasion you're shopping for, a gift of grooming is often a great choice for the man in your life. From shaving tools to luxury shave products to travel, one of these five great choices should fit the bill. Before you buy, remember to check the retailer's shipping and return policy to make sure your gift will arrive in time and that you can return it if the gift's not a great fit.
Art of Shaving 4 Elements of the Perfect Shave Gift Set
The Art of Shaving makes great aromatherapy-based products and their Shaving Cream and After-Shave balm are a few of my "must-haves." This kit contains Pre-Shave Oil (2 oz.), Shaving Cream (5.3 oz.), After-Shave Balm (4 oz.) and a Pure Badger Shaving Brush. At around $100, I think this is a pretty good deal. Their 4 Elements of the Perfect Shave are designed to give a great shave with less irritation and the set is perfect for sensitive skin.
The Art of Shaving Fusion Chrome Collection Shaving Set
When The Art of Shaving teamed up with Gillette to create a luxury version of the Gillette Fusion Razor, I knew they were on to something. This set is sleek, contemporary, and stunning. It includes the Fusion Chrome Razor, Shaving Brush, and Stand. The set is crafted from polished chrome and is well weighted and balanced for a great shave.
Truefitt & Hill Edwardian Blue Horn 3 Piece Shave Set
Truefitt & Hill has been in the shaving business since 1805 and has shaved men from kings to Hollywood royalty. This set is simply stunning. I've carried the Blue Horn razor in my stores and own one of these myself. If you want to throw in a great shaving cream, their 1805 Shaving Cream is fantastic with a clean fragrance (although my favorite is the earthy Lavendar Shaving Cream).
Menscience Travel Kit
This kit is an absolute must for the man who travels. It contains TSA compliant sizes of Shave Formula, Face Wash, Face Lotion, Post-Shave repair, Daily Shampoo, Advanced Deodorant, Advanced Lip Protection, Night Sleep Mask, Ear Plugs, and A Personal Travel Bag. Menscience products are a part of my daily regimen and I can't say enough great things about them (their Microfine Face Scrub is the best on the market, in my opinion).
Truefitt & Hill Turnback Traveler
This is a gift for traveling man who is serious about his shave. The Truefitt & Hill Turnback Traveler is one of the coolest travel brushes I've seen. The innovative design screws into the handle for shaving. When you're read to go, flip the brush over and slide it into the handle which serves to protect your brush, while leaving the end open to allow the brush to dry properly.
