Winter Grooming Essentials For The Modern Man

AD: some products featured below are samples. Products with an (*) are paid collaborations.

Want to know what Winter Grooming Essentials have made the cut on my bathroom cabinet? Then continue reading…

It’s not often for myself to take to a male grooming product. Let’s be upfront, the majority of products for men on the market are often very similar and dare I say, boring. I have become somewhat ruthless when it comes to selecting a few that have cut. I stay away from male grooming products that contain unnecessary fragrances and chemical detergents. Your skin with thank you too!

*Particle for Men Body Wash: One word, incredible! After reviewing the brand’s face collection (which you can read here). I was kindly offered to experience their latest duo to the portfolio. Beginning with the mineral-rich body wash; refreshing, awakening and insanely addictive. Enriched with high-grade sea minerals including magnesium, sodium and potassium to deeply cleanse whilst treating skin concerns such as dryness and itchy skin. 

Cocooning the skin with its creamy, “almost” luminescent texture that glides heavenly over dampen skin. Don’t expect a crazy amount of lather. But enough lather to satisfy your skin’s cravings for a deep cleansing experience. The skin was left smooth and comforted, you might think twice about applying your everyday body lotion, it’s that good.  

The Particle for Men Body Wash has made a great addition to my bathtime essentials. I prefer to use the product after working up a heavy sweat at the gym, It really does a thorough job at removing unattractive body odour thanks to its mineral-rich content.

Winter haircare sorted

Using premium, active, ingredients is what Particle for Men is known for, and they didn’t skimp on high-performance ingredients with this *hair wash. We have Capixyl, a peptide that treats hair loss. Redensyl re-activates dormant hair follicles whilst encouraging hair thickness. Biotin and Green Tea combined support natural hair growth thanks to its essential nutrients.

Rest assured that Particle for Men has considered the needs for men upon creating a well-formulated shampoo, like this one. SLS/SLES (that are often known with stripping hydration and colour), Salt and paraben-free, the three ingredients that Particle for Men left out, and what a good job too.

Dare I say, my Mum has been using the shampoo, and why not. She loves how it doesn’t leave her fine hair tacky or heavy.

*Nocturnal Essence Moisturiser: We have hit the beautiful season of Autumn which means the temperature is now declining. Our skin is more prone to dryness during the colder months. Incorporating a moisturiser that contains hydrating ingredients will prime and protect skin for Winter.

One key ingredient to look out for, sodium hyaluronate (also known as hyaluronic acid), this humectant works as a magnet for moisture on the skin, helping your cells to retain moisture as much as possible. Luckily for us fellas, this Noctural Essence Moisturiser from #FrshFced includes the skin-quenching ingredient.

Pleasing to the nose buds, this men’s moisturiser also contains coconut and olive oils to further wrap the skin with vital moisture. Thirdly, Shea butter comforts and protects against outside aggressions. 

Aromatic, lightweight and deeply hydrating. As a result, the Nocturnal Essence Moisturiser absorbs straight into the skin without leaving a single trace. Call this your Winter saviour!

BEARDS ARE EVERYTHING!

Furthermore, adding a drop or two of the *Apricot Beard Oil will satisfy the cravings of those with a drier skin type. Deeply-rich in moisturising fatty acids from Avocado and Macadamia, this beard oil from #FrshFced works an absolute treat on those with facial beards.

ARK Skincare Hydrating Serum: Not a grooming product as such, but one or two drops of this Winter hero into your favourite moisturiser will elevate your moisture levels to the max. There’s a handful of skin-quenching ingredients that I am certain your skin will appreciate when applying.

Firstly, we have Cucumber to relief tension for irritated skin. An ingredient widely used in after-sun products to soothe and de-stress sunburned skin. Secondly, the famous humectant, Glycerin pulls water from the outer layer into the deepest layers of the skin. This will provide you with a plumpious, camera-ready glow. In addition, we have Laminaria Algae that injects vital mineral salts and a cocktail of multivitamins into the skin.

In essence, its best to apply the serum over dampen skin for maximum absorption. Again, you only need one or two drops for the entire face, applying more will cause the skin to feel tacky.

    I might have to order the beard oil for my partner – he’s grown a beard since the start of lockdown, after having been clean shaven for years!

One of the very few hand creams I swear by! @arksk One of the very few hand creams I swear by! @arkskincare Intensive Hand & Nail Cream keeps my hands hydrated and protected, even after continuous washing. 🧼Raspberry and Cocoa Butter inject fast hydration whilst Amino Acids promotes strong, healthy-looking nails.

I like to keep a spare bottle at work when my hands are screaming for moisture.💧It's velvety, luxurious formula easily absorbs into the skin, allowing me to put on a fresh pair of gloves without having to wait. 👏AD products(s) featured are samples with no obligation to promote or expose.🏷#arkskincare #discoverunder5k #handcare #handcream #handwashing #healthyskin #skinfluencer #skincaretexture #selfcare #texturetuesday
Evenings consist of self-care. The only time for m Evenings consist of self-care. The only time for me to recharge those batteries before facing another busy week ahead. 🙌In my hand is the beautiful-looking, boujee @lisafranklinuk Clinic Privé No.2 Clear + Restore Serum. Combining Acaí, Andiroba, Copaiba — these 3 plant extracts work in synergy to prevent bacterial acne growth.Furthermore, Synactin® AC alleviates the 5 main causes of acne: reduces keratinization, decreases sebum production, acts as an anti-inflammatory and treats hyperpigmentation. Saving the best till last! This ingredient is also clinically-proven to reduce pore size, after six weeks of use. Blended with soothing, reparative plant oils jojoba, tamanu and rosehip essential oil.Oh! Not to forget Diamond Powder, used to diminish the appearance of 3 major skin concerns (dark circles, shallowness and pigmentation).For me, applying a drop or two over the entire face in the evenings seems to work an absolute treat! Skin is left hydrated, nurtured and comfortable without needing to apply a nighttime moisturiser on top. 👏AD product(s): featured are samples with no obligation to promote or expose.🏷#acne #clearskin #serum #lisafranklin #skincareroutine #sundayevening #skinfluencer #skincareuk #selfcare #modelpose #mensfashion #lincolnshire
I am not normally a big fan of my smile, but this I am not normally a big fan of my smile, but this photo makes me appreciate the smile I have... 😁Here in my hand is the @lisafranklinuk Men's Pro-Effect Gel Wash. Nutrient-rich, purifying and energised with rose quartz, this cream-like foaming cleanser gently removes pollution, dirt and grime from the skin without compromising the pH barrier. ✔Forgot those harsh sulfate detergents! The combination of shikakai pods, desert date and gypsophila root won't make much lather, but enough to satisfy your skin's craving for a deep cleanse.Lisa's signature "phyto complex roots", a photo-active astringent that combines cinnamon, ginger and burnet herb to control and correct skin irregularities. Furthermore, Frankincense, Quince and Sandalwood work in synergy to reduce skin inflammation. 👏What to know something cool? This astringent is proven to reduce pore size in less than 15 minutes! 😳 (just don't expect to be pore-free!)The Clinic Privé in Knightsbridge is where Lisa's clientele experiences pure green technology, harnessing the powers of plant cell culture is what gives Lisa's clients "the Lisa Franklin glow". ✨This product works! I have used it for just under a month now and my skin has benefited from using the product. Less congested, balanced and re-energised.
