Stay Neat and Groomed On the Road with the Rugged & Dapper Travel Set

By

One of the biggest downfalls of taking a trip abroad or a flight cross country is your inability to groom properly. Nowadays, however, grooming brands have been downsizing their goodies in bottles that are flight-approved, so you can stay cleaned and conditioned in the air and on the road. The Rugged & Dapper Travel Set features the company’s four best-selling products, which are now TSA approved for your convenience.

The set contains Rugged & Dapper’s Age & Damage Defense Facial Moisturizer (2 oz),  Daily Power Scrub Facial Cleanser (2 oz), Dual Purpose Body Wash + Shampoo (1.5 oz) and a Moisture Fix Lip Balm (0.15 oz).

I have been using this kit of products for the last few months and I have definitely noticed an improvement in my skin and hair. Now that I have the option to bring these companions on the road, it only makes the experience that much sweeter.

First off, the Daily Power Scrub Facial Cleanser is an energizing toner and exfoliator that rids your pores of gunk, grime, and oils on both the surface level and underneath. Contrary to many facial scrubs, Rugged & Dapper’s cleanser is light enough to be used every day, day and night, because it doesn’t strip the moisture from your skin. Instead, it pours in vital botanicals and minerals like lavender, tea tree oil, and jojoba beads that regenerate your skin and reduce the appearance of pores.

The Age & Defense Facial Moisturizer is the perfect follow-up, acting as both a hydrating moisturizer and soothing aftershave lotion. Packed with effective nutrient-rich ingredients, such as aloe vera, jojoba oil, and vitamin B5, among others, this creamy substance has a great viscosity that’s easy to apply and dries quickly. The peptides provide a nice boost in collagen and elastin production, too, which aids in the repair and prevention of wrinkles in order to keep your face looking dapper every day.

Now on to the 2-in-1 punch Body Wash and Shampoo. This dual-purpose formula is teeming with refreshing ingredients such as olive, borage, oregano, tea tree, and rosehip oils that are strong enough to tackle dirtiness from your scalp to your toes. It also puts off a pleasing, masculine scent that is apparent all day long. Unfortunately, there isn’t the Hydration Remedy Conditioner for you to follow with, but you can say goodbye to those cheap hotel shampoos and bring your favorite cleaning essentials and scents with you on the go.

Last but not least, Rugged & Dapper has an amazing Moisture Fix Lip Balm that will keep your lips feeling refreshed. It can be difficult to keep your lips soft and moist when on the road because of changing climates and altitudes, but this lip balm provides fast-acting relief for dry or chapped lips and a pleasant minty finish.

The Rugged & Dapper Travel Set is set to release August 10 and will be available for just $19.95 on the brand’s website.

After almost 50 years, Yankees embrace beards — because why not, right?
Yankee players can now have beards
New York Yankees relief pitcher Mariano Rivera (42) pitches against the Colorado Rockies on June 26, 2011 at Yankee Stadium.

For nearly a half-century, the New York Yankees personal grooming policy has been a running tribute to the days when men were men, ballplayers simply played ball, and they shaved every day to meet the demands of their late owner, George Steinbrenner.
Not anymore. In a significant sign of the times—or a sign of the coming apocalypse if you’re a traditional Yankee fan of a certain age — current Yankees chairman Hal Steinbrenner rescinded the team's beard ban, which has stood the test of time since his father instituted it in 1976.

The Yankees' no-beard policy has left a trail of shaved beard hair

Can creatine cause hair loss? Separating fact from fiction
Discover what the research says

Creatine is one of the most well-researched and widely used supplements for enhancing muscle growth and strength. As a trainer and nutritionist, I always recommend it to my clients to help support their fitness goals. However, some people worry about a potential link between creatine and hair loss.

The concern stems from a 2009 study that suggested creatine might increase dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels, a hormone associated with male pattern baldness. Does this mean the answer to the question, “Can creatine cause hair loss?” is affirmative?
