The best spray sunscreens for healthy skin all season long

Spray-on sunscreens that won't give you greasy skin

It’s a necessary part of any skincare routine, but applying sunscreen is one step that many skip more than they’d care to admit. One bad experience with greasy, sticky sunscreen on a hot day is enough to make anyone "forget" to wear the stuff, even if SPF is known to protect against skin cancer, signs of aging, and other maladies.

Smell great all day

First impressions are vital. The moment you meet someone, they will make a snap decision about you, and if it is the wrong one, it will be a long road to fix it. There are ways to make a great first impression. You can look your best in every moment. You can wear the right clothes. You can get the perfect hair. Say the right things. But one of the most underrated secret weapons to a great first impression is to smell fantastic. The right cologne is the perfect way to draw in the people you want to surround you subconsciously. Of course, that is easy if your meeting, date, or conference is in the morning, but what if it is later in the day? Cologne can seemingly disappear throughout the day, which can be quite aggravating. Here is how to make cologne last longer so you can make the right first impression at any moment throughout the day, whether it is planned or not.
Why does my cologne wear off so fast?

I use this Clubman Pinaud beard conditioner and face moisturizer and I love it

Clubman Pinaud 2 in 1 beard conditioner and face moisturizer deal

I have a beard. Occasionally, no matter how well I wash that beard my face gets dry and itchy. It sucks, but that's part of having facial hair. You can counteract this with a proper beard grooming regimen, that includes not only washing your beard, but conditioning the hair, moisturizing your skin, and styling it with something like beard butter. Arguably, one of the most important parts of that regimen is using a proper beard conditioner. It keeps your facial hair smooth and healthy, but also works wonders for your skin. My top choice, and a conditioner I love to use, is Clubman Pinaud. It smells great, but the scent is not overpowering, and it both conditions unruly beard hair and moisturizes your skin. Plus, it's on sale right now, down to $6.62, usually about $7. You can also save a little more by setting up Amazon's Subscribe and Save service.

Why shop this Clubman Pinaud 2-in-1 beard conditioner and face moisturizer deal?
No, that chiseled hunk in the image above is not me. And look, I know the deal isn't crazy good or anything, you're only saving about 40 cents. However, I regularly use this beard conditioner and skin moisturizer from Clubman Pinaud and I love it, so I figured I would share. If there's anyone else out there that happens to deal with a dry beard, like I have, you may appreciate the callout.
