When Marshawn Lynch was an NFL running back for the Seattle Seahawks, his signature physical running style was known around the league and beyond as “Beast Mode.” The term described the way he obliterated defenders, and it helped deliver a championship for the Seahawks in 2014.

Lynch’s playing days are over, but that doesn’t mean he’s changed his m.o. He now has a brand called BEASTMODE, and Lynch has teamed up with an industry giant to promote Dove Men+Care Whole Body Deodorant, with Dove adding a new product to the lineup while featuring Lynch’s special promotion.

To pump up the product, Lynch came up with a merch kit that’s being sold under a playful variation of his brand name, _EASTM_DE — i.e., the B.O. has been eliminated. The kit, which was released on February 6th and promoted heavily during Super Bowl week, includes a hoodie, shorts and socks to represent the areas where the Whole Body Deodorant is most effective in eliminating body odor.

Going beyond the celebrity endorsement, Dove is emphasizing the dermatologist-tested ingredients in this “deo.” The products include the new Marine + Blue Cypress Whole Body Deo Spray introduced in January, the Fig +Suede Whole Body Deo Spray, and the Aloe + Bamboo Whole Body Deo Spray.

In addition to the dermatological testing, these products are free of parabens, and they even spray upside down to help make full-body coverage easier. Dove’s Men+Care product line includes bars, body washes, face care products, deodorants, and hair care products, with these additions representing a unique twist to the lineup. They’re manufactured by Unilever, and you can find more information about them at DoveMenCare.com

For Lynch fans who are interested in learning more about his role in the release, more information is available at EASTMDE.com. His BEASTMODE merch kits are still available at stores are located in Las Vegas and Seattle, and he’ll be featuring live giveaways during his ongoing podcast, Get Got Pod.

No-Shave November vs. Movember: There’s a difference between these 2 causes

The Covenant

It is November yet again. And yes, while the most important cycle you may be preparing for is the defrosting of Mariah Carey and her All I Want for Christmas domination of the airwaves, there is another you are likely hitting right now. No-Shave November is in full swing. So while all your friends are a few days into tossing their razors and trimmers away for thirty days, others are focusing on a completely separate engagement: Movember.

Most people use these two phrases interchangeably, but they are entirely different, with different origins and focuses. So what is the difference between No-Shave November and Movember? Well, sit back and let me walk you through it so you know which one you are participating in and who exactly you are supporting when you do.

Live on the Cutting Edge with expert shave advice

Cutting Edge

When a man is coming of age, there is a rite of passage he must go through. If he is lucky, he has a father who will teach him. But he must learn to shave. Whether you are a guy who loves the Harvey Specter clean-shaven look or a guy who wants to look like the wild man in the wilderness, you still need to perfect this process. Every man needs some good shaving tips. If you are a father of a son, this is a ritual you are looking forward to teaching your son. And you will cherish that moment, among others, as they move on in their life.

If you aren’t someone lucky enough to have a father or grandfather you can look to for the wisdom of the shave, then you’re the person we’re looking for here. I remember my father teaching me. So it is important to pass on the information to you. In true Mark style, I reached out to my friends at Cutting Edge and got expert information from a leader in the industry.

How The Beard Club Helped Me Grow a Beard

John Jones after beard growth

I was a failure … the facial hair equivalent of a 90-pound weakling. It wasn’t so much that I couldn’t grow a beard; it was more that whatever facial hair I did grow felt like a Velcroed-on Brillo pad: super uncomfortable and leaving my skin itchy and broken out. As Movember and No-Shave November came and went, I made two separate attempts at beard growth … each ending with a sprint into the bathroom when I could stand it no more, trimmer in hand, welcoming back the clean-shaven face I know so well. It wasn’t the first time I’d given up on hirsute happiness.

When December rolled around, I decided to pay attention to an email I’d gotten for something called The Beard Club, a subscription service for beard care products. The Club’s premise was “helping first-timers as well as seasoned hirsute gentleman to up their grooming game.” I couldn’t resist and threw down the gauntlet. Could they help even me? After all, the site’s tag line is “Don’t Grow it Alone.”
