Billy Jealousy’s Adrenaline Junkie

We woke up this morning to quite a shock. It wasn’t the snow on the ground or the cat hurling in the bed (don’t ask), rather the scrub we used in the shower.

Adrenaline Junkie is the new energizing scrub from the amusing, yet dedicated grooming line, Billy Jealousy. Although sold as a face scrub we use it all over. The peppermint oil got our blood buzzing, the jojoba esters wiped away dead skin and city grime and the sunflower glycerides provided a natural moisturizer rich in fatty acids, the only kind of fat we need this morning, minus bacon.

If you aren’t familiar with the line, Billy Jealousy was founded in 2004 (we were at the launch party, we don’t remember much) and has been an anchor in the men’s grooming market focusing on science and nature to provide awesome products that sell world wide. They also get points in the charity field – a portion of the sale of every product goes to one of their favorite organizations such as Big Brothers, Big Sisters and Green Corps. All of the products are also PETA approved.

We suggest using this product a couple of times a week (not more as a scrub isn’t good for the skin on a daily basis) and of course any time a hangover is involved.

How to trim a beard the right way — from stubble to full-on lumberjack
Choose the right beard, get the right tools, and master these techniques for a great look
Beard trimming

At first glance, how to trim a beard seems like an easy problem to solve. I have first-hand experience with this, as my beard grew out evenly when I decided to sprout one. Even better, it came in with a reddish color that complemented my long face and Scotch-Irish ancestry on my father’s side. The basic color and uniformity made it easy to overlook the inevitable mistakes I made, so the toughest task was reminding myself to trim every other day. Otherwise, I would grow a small beard forest that was tough to handle.
For many men, though, it’s not so simple. That’s especially true for beard novices and for those men whose beards serve up some surprises. When that happens, trimming becomes a tougher task, so a brief tactical review is a solid idea.
