Giveaway: Baxter’s Wet Shave Starter Kit

Who uses an electric shaver anymore? Growing up, electric was all the rage, but now, classic is back. Baxter of California has come out with a Wet Shave Starter Kit that we love.

If you are new to wet shaving, this kit is most definitely for you. If you are an old pro, you will relish in the grooming goodness found within.

Baxter’s kit includes:

  • Safety Razor-Launched in the late 18th century to avoid less throat slashing (we assume?), this traditional razor has become hugely popular again. Baxter’s custom chrome plated Double-Edge helps reduce ingrown hairs and razor burn and will last for years.
  • Best Badger Shave Brush– Their badger shave brush is made of well, 100% badger hair (which is superb at holding water) and helps lift facial hair and create a rich lather.
  • Super Close Shave Formula– This award winning shave cream glides on easily, is hydrating and soothing. The antiseptic and botanical extracts such as menthol and tea tree oil refresh and soothe your mug.
  • After Shave Balm– Aloe and tea tree oil provide nourishing moisturizer after your shave. This balm protects skin from shaving irritation, dryness and razor burn. Plus it cools, calms and conditions the skin as it relieves sensitivity after shaving.

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.
