Gift Guide: Brooklyn Grooming Shave Oil

Dry winter skin is something that plagues us all, and running a razor across your face doesn’t necessarily help to make the situation better. Enter Brooklyn Grooming’s Commando Shave Oil, a mineral-rich, classic formula that moisturizes and nourishes the skin while you shave.

Not only will this oil give you a smooth shave without cuts or scrapes, but it acts as a post-shave moisturizer, saving you a step in your regular grooming routine. But what about the foam? Many formulas made to lather contain synthetic ingredients that will further dry out the skin. Containing only natural oils, Brooklyn Grooming’s blend naturally softens the hair follicles, making for a smooth and pleasant shave. The brand’s line of products includes some rad fragrances, but we love the unscented Commando for its ultra minimalistic feel.

There are many things you can tell about a guy from his haircut. Some guys grow the long, flowing locks and do all they can to look like Thor. Or if you are a bit older and are a Gen X or Millenial, you may know who Fabio is. Other guys like to go a little shorter and get the soldier look, rocking the Jason Statham or Bruce Willis look. And still, some of us know we can't pull off either look and opt to land somewhere in the middle with a more executive look. But there is a great look that can give you the hair you want on top while keeping the clean-cut, off-the-ear look you want; that is the mid fade.

Manly men are beloved by everyone. Men want to be with them; women want to be with them. That has always been the way of the world. Facial hair compliments a man's masculinity and helps display the virility he has to the rest of the world. Of course, beards are fashionable and have been for a long time. But the return of the mustache is one of our favorite trends to start making its way back into the world of men's style. However, if you want to know which stache best suits you, it is best to know all the best mustache styles.
