Every Christmas day, probably since JC’s time, some sort of grooming product has found its way onto a man’s lap (along with socks – please buy us more, we always forget). It’s a good shout. After getting merry all December while switching between Baltic winds and cranked up central heating, it’s peak ‘feel like crap, look like crap’ season.
But before you buy some painfully obvious (and obviously thoughtless) body wash set you grabbed from the shelf without looking at it, we’ve trawled through all manner of men’s products, binned the rubbish and compiled a list of grooming gifts that he’ll a) love and b) be more godlike after using. Winter’s about to get a lot better looking.
Clinique Cleansing Brush
Not content with concocting all manner of potions with baffling ingredients (methoxydibenzoylmethane anyone?) men’s grooming has gone one better and rendered hands redundant – almost. Clinique’s sonic cleansing brush is like a mini pneumatic drill for your face, sending 9,000 sonic vibrations per minute through its soft bristles to dislodge muck and grime with minimal effort. Scientifically speaking, he’ll never have been so clean.
