Former advertising executive Baxter Finley founded his eponymous grooming brand Baxter of California in 1965 after moving to Los Angeles from New York, receiving a beating on his skin from the harsh sunlight, and discovering that there were no products specifically targeted towards men. He aimed Baxter of California towards “men with an interest in their well-being, a sense of heritage, and a discerning taste.” The label is still going strong five decades later; with a range of products that includes deodorant, lip balm, straight razors and more.

Baxter of California’s latest release is its third collection of scented candles called the Ash Series, which is inspired by different regions of the Golden State — the beaches on the coast, the dry desert and the mountain ranges. The three scents — Sweet Ash, Smoke Ash and Wood Ash — share the notes of cedar, pine, sandalwood, and cade. Pick up one, or all three of these candles and let their fresh, outdoorsy scents transport you to the breathtaking landscapes of California, unless of course, you’re lucky enough to already be there.

A fun bit of historic TV trivia is that the original NBC peacock logo was first implemented in 1956 to highlight the network's new color programming. Even though the logo has gone through numerous iterations since then, the network has stuck with the colorful bird, in one form or another, for going on six decades now. It’s fitting, then, that Peacock is known most for its TV programming, highlighted by shows like The Office, Parks and Rec, and the self-mocking (and hilarious) 30 Rock. If you are on Peacock for the shows, however, don't overlook that the platform is also home to a number of great movies spanning cinema history, including everything from great comedy to excellent sports movies.

Peacock streaming offers both free (registered) and paid accounts. As a result, some Peacock movies are available without a paid subscription, and others only for subscribers. This roundup culls titles from both groups. To be sure you can access all of these classics, you'll have to fork over the $5-a-month service cost. Happy streaming and keep reading to find the best movies on Peacock right now.
