Here at The Manual we love a good beard oil or pomade. They’re great for moisturizing, adding shine to your hair, and taming an unruly beard or wild head of hair.

One of our new favorite brands for grooming and skincare products is Decoded Artisans in Southern California. These guys are rightfully called artisans because everything they make is made by their very own pair of hands.

Decoded Artisans owner and founder Marcus Asmar began building the brand in 2013 and has seen success ever since. It started out as just a regular hobby for Asmar but obviously it has transformed into much more. All of the countless hours spent on projects, photo shoots, product development, and testing finally paid off. Now men like us and you are treating their manes and facial hair with luxury grooming products like oils, pomades, and mustache waxes made by the hands of a true artisan and creative. According to Asmar, “Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort.” It’s the best or nothing for a brand that prides itself on craftsmanship and staying true to their name.

Decoded’s latest chapter of their journey was just released last month in the form of a promotional video for their new pomade line (Check it out below!). It’s a pomade that gives your hairdo a max hold that won’t crumble in the heat of the California sunshine.

It’s fast-drying, water soluble, and can either have a matte or shine finish depending on the amount of water you add when styling. It’s also made with a fresh scent labeled as “Morning Dew” – a fresh cucumber and honey dew scent that will keep you hair smelling clean and fresh through the entirety of your day.

Pomade isn’t the only thing cooking up at Decoded’s shop. As we said before, Decoded also crafts a line of beard oils and mustache waxes. They’re both made to moisturize and mold, but they also come with a variety of fresh scents. You can choose from Atlantic Chill, Citrus Redwood, Dark Forest, Earth Tones, Meadow Breeze, and Morning Dew. All are as manly as the other with burly scents and sweet undertones of fruit and citrus.

Decoded also makes some really great home products and accessories for men. You can buy a set of four coasters to rest on your coffee table or an art print made by one of Decoded’s very own artisans to hang on your bedroom wall. You can also wear Decoded around your waist in the form of a leather belt or as a key ring for your car keys. One of their coolest products aside from their grooming line is the selvedge, denim apron. It’s made to order, durable enough for any project, and practical enough to wear in the kitchen.

With that said, Decoded Artisans is ready to get back to work. According to the brand, “The thing we lose patience with the most is the clock… Its hands move too fast.

I use this Clubman Pinaud beard conditioner and face moisturizer and I love it
Clubman Pinaud 2 in 1 beard conditioner and face moisturizer deal

I have a beard. Occasionally, no matter how well I wash that beard my face gets dry and itchy. It sucks, but that's part of having facial hair. You can counteract this with a proper beard grooming regimen, that includes not only washing your beard, but conditioning the hair, moisturizing your skin, and styling it with something like beard butter. Arguably, one of the most important parts of that regimen is using a proper beard conditioner. It keeps your facial hair smooth and healthy, but also works wonders for your skin. My top choice, and a conditioner I love to use, is Clubman Pinaud. It smells great, but the scent is not overpowering, and it both conditions unruly beard hair and moisturizes your skin. Plus, it's on sale right now, down to $6.62, usually about $7. You can also save a little more by setting up Amazon's Subscribe and Save service.

 
Why shop this Clubman Pinaud 2-in-1 beard conditioner and face moisturizer deal?
No, that chiseled hunk in the image above is not me. And look, I know the deal isn't crazy good or anything, you're only saving about 40 cents. However, I regularly use this beard conditioner and skin moisturizer from Clubman Pinaud and I love it, so I figured I would share. If there's anyone else out there that happens to deal with a dry beard, like I have, you may appreciate the callout.

The ultimate guide for men’s skincare in the fall that everyone should follow
Try these skincare tips for men to take you from warm fall afternoons to chilly winter nights

The winter holiday season seems to start earlier and earlier from a commercial standpoint. Now, it's not uncommon for Black Friday/Christmas ads to start before Halloween and to see Halloween candy in stores in August. However, it’s challenging to think about winter let alone winter skincare, when it’s still light out at 5 p.m. While putting gift shopping off to the last minute is perfectly acceptable — and may score you a sweet deal — early fall is the time to start thinking about skincare tips for colder weather.
Come winter, the dry air from the indoor heat and the freezing cold air can do a number on our skin. Think dryness, cracked feet, and chapped lips. A little advanced preparation can go a long way. These men’s fall skincare tips will season-proof your regimen.

How do you take care of your skin in the fall?

The best Burberry cologne for men: Our top picks for every occasion

If you like rain but hate getting wet, you can thank Burberry for the ability to spend time in the weather while still staying comfortable. In 1856, Thomas Burberry set out to protect people from the weather on the British Isles. He then revolutionized modern rainwear twenty years later with the invention of Gabardine. Before he stepped into the innovation space, rainwear was heavy and uncomfortable. Now, we can stroll to work and not worry too much about the rain or the cold. He didn't stop innovating, and now, nearly two centuries later, we have one of the powerhouse fashion brands in the world. His brand lives on today with some of the best Burberry colognes for men.
