The skin is the largest organ in your body, so we need to take the best care of it that we can. We shouldn’t let the sun’s harmful rays hit our skin, unless we want a leathery texture, annoying spots or the other countless things that can happen to our skin. We also need to give it the nutrients it needs.

The folks at Ursa Major, an organic grooming line, created the brand “to provide a healthy and highly effective skin care solution that’s also a real pleasure to use – a robust, natural alternative to the bland, toxin-laden products that pervade today’s marketplace.” Everything is 99 to 100 percent natural, cleanly processed, and has zero toxins.

They also use nature’s finest ingredients to produce grooming products that nourish your skin, ingredients that they refer to as “super natural.” You can have clear, healthy skin in three-and-a-half simple steps. First, start out by lathering your face up with the foaming gel cleanser with a natural brightening complex. Next, spray on the 4-in-1 essential face tonic to clean, exfoliate, soothe, and hydrate your skin. Afterwards, use the fortifying face balm to moisturize and prevent those pesky wrinkles. When you’re on the go pack up the essential face wipes — single-use versions of the 4-in-1 essential face tonic to freshen up while you’re on the move.

If you’re interested in seeing just how well the three-and-a-half steps work for you, Ursa Major made the perfect trial kit. The Clear, Healthy Skin Kit is a two-week supply of all of the products, so you can decide if you’ll want to go full sized — and we’re pretty sure you will — or, if you need trial sizes when you’re going a trip half way across the world. That way you’ll have everything you need to keep your skin looking fresh, healthy and youthful.

When you have healthy skin, you’ll feel great about everything else, and the Ursa Major Clear, Healthy Skin Kit will put you on your way to the skin you’ve always wanted, so you can impress everyone else.

The Manual’s Grooming Awards Are Open for Submissions
Head, Person, Face

For eight years, The Manual’s Grooming Awards have done one thing: told readers which products actually work. Not which ones arrived in the nicest box, not which brand bought the most media. Which ones survived months of daily use on our own faces, in our own showers, and were still worth reaching for at the end.

This year, we’re opening the awards to submissions.

Who says wearing a hat worsens hair loss? GroWell disagrees
Driving, Person, Transportation

A couple of years ago, I took a flight to Istanbul on Turkish Airlines to meet with a hair transplant expert. It wasn’t for my scalp; it was for my beard. Stress-induced alopecia had ravaged one side of my face, and I was horribly self-conscious about it. Even images I took for my articles here on The Manual I would limit to the right side of my face. Ultimately, I got the transplant on the left side and went home happy. Now my right side is following suit, and I am considering the same thing again.

But what if I didn’t have to do all of that? What if there was a better way to treat hair loss? The secret is to get out in front of it early. Don’t wait. That doesn’t mean book a ticket on “Turkish Hairlines” and start going under the knife (dramatic, but you get the point). Instead, there is a better way to start early. Red light therapy. But, guys don’t always have the time. So the fix is in GroWell’s red light therapy hat. Who said wearing a hat causes you to go bald? That old wives’ tale is a thing of the past.

Why ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky Is Dead Wrong About Pedicures — and the Late Kobe Bryant Would Agree 
Accessories, Formal Wear, Tie

If the name Dan Orlovsky rings a bell, you probably know him for two things. He’s the quarterback who infamously ran out of the back of the end zone in 2008 as a member of the Detroit Lions. The move is considered such a bone-headed move that when Cody Kessler did the same thing in 2016, pundits wrote that Kessler pulled a Dan Orlovsky. The name also might ring a bell because of his takes as an NFL analyst on ESPN.

It turns out that there’s now a third reason why the name rings a bell. Earlier this week, Orlovsky said he’s completely against men getting pedicures. The subject came up after football fans learned that Florida Gators football coach John Sumrall, a no-nonsense tough guy, loves getting pedicures. Orlovsky appeared on Mike Greenberg’s Get Up show and made his feelings known.
