Nad's .. NOT FOR MEN

I am all for the metro revolution and believe you can express your personal style  in your grooming, including the removal of hair.... wherever. However, it has been my professional experience that most men who desire a wax don't really want to try it themselves. For thoes that do, this product takes a difficult situation and makes it a hot mess! The product is both sticky and messy and not formulated for the thick, strong hairs on a man's body. Avoid this one at all cost! If you need a referral for a safe wax .. tweet me the question.

THE BRAINS BEHIND THE SHAVE

Smart Shave is a three –step system developed by a Harvard and Columbia University-trained dermatologist, specifically built for shaving problems such as razor burn, bumps, ingrown hair, redness and inflammation. STEP 1: Wiping with the exfoliating pads will help bring out the stubble, so your razor can get to it without tearing into your skin. STEP 2: Apply the slick shaving cream glide the razor easily across skin to prevent pulling and/or dragging. STEP 3: Seals the Deal with a Calming Balm that rejuvenates and nourishes skin. This shaving system promises noticeable improvements in your skin only after two weeks. Purchase here.

Let's started with the basics.. a simple but sound cleansing routine. For the at home shaver that means three things a shaving gel, aftershave gel and a moisturizer.  Two different options  to suit either your skin type, budget, and taste. All on sale for the holidays.
