Feel Good Friday: Mister Beardwash

Mister Beardwash loves anyone or thing with whiskers. Case in point, with the purchase of every bottle of their wash and/or conditioner made specifically to clean beards and mustaches, you’re in fact donating to the North Shore Animal League of America, the world’s largest no-kill animal rescue and adoption organization.

What’s more beard warming than that? Wait, why would anyone want to buy a beard wash in the first place? Don’t regular shampoos or face cleansers work on your face hair too? Well, yeah, they won’t break your beard or anything, but also, they’re not really strong enough to tackle the thicker, coarser hair that grows out of your face. And more, the skin on your chin is different than what’s on your scalp, so if you’re being a perfectionist about caring for your beard, you also want to nourish your below the beard area correctly too.

A good beard wash, like Mister Beardwash, is formulated with this in mind, using beard and face friendly ingredients like acne fighting willow bark extract, moisturizing hibiscus, cotton and oat extracts and nourishing, soothing green tea. They’ll leave your beard feeling that much softer and the skin beneath clean and acne free. And if you have beard dandruff problems, you might want to give their deep conditioner a try. It eats flakes for breakfast. Just like you.

Ok, so some of these beard products can come off as just a little overboard (Head and Shoulders or Selsun blue also work on beard dandruff) and true, you don’t absolutely need a specific beard cleansing or conditioning product in the tub in say, the same way a dog needs one, but if buying one helps nourish our beard better than regular shampoo, and keep man’s best friend happily panting away, well then, we say go for it.

Princess Bride

Disney is arguably the most iconic entertainment brand in the world. The company's properties, both original and acquired, combine to produce content that transcends age demographics. Disney has built a brand that's beloved by children, and those children eventually age into adults who introduce their kids to the films they loved when they were young. Disney's animation alone has made it iconic, but in recent years, the company has also acquired some of the biggest pieces of intellectual property there are. And with Disney Plus available on any device, you can watch all these movies whenever you want.

Between its acquisitions of both Marvel and Star Wars, there's a good chance that Disney is shepherding whatever you love to screens, both large and small. When it launched Disney+, the company was sure to fill it with both those nostalgic animated classics and plenty of new stuff as well. If, like me, you've ever felt a twinge of nostalgia for the Disney movies you loved as a kid, they're all there. Just as importantly, though, you can find movies that will resonate with you today in ways they didn't as a kid. Whatever you're looking for, you can probably find it on Disney+.

Having a vast library of good television shows and films is the most important factor in the success of a streaming service. That's part of what transformed Netflix into a global phenomenon, and it's why services like Paramount Plus have worked hard to build a healthy library of series that subscribers can browse through. As is the case with all streaming services, Paramount+ has a mix of original series that live only on the platform and older shows that were originally on broadcast and have now found a home on streaming.
Although these shows have varied histories, each one of them is a great staple in Paramount Plus's overall streaming library. Paramount+ might not seem like it has the kind of depth or variety that someplace like Netflix does, but trust me, once you dive in, you'll find that there are plenty of shows to watch and love.

Disney Plus has finally created a competitive library of original series that can compete with other services like Netflix and Max. It's also a treasure trove of Disney nostalgia for anyone who grew up in the '90s and early 2000s. On top of all that, the streamer has released a few of the most popular TV series to come out in recent years, and those series, on top of the deep catalog, make a Disney+ subscription worthwhile.

The streaming service is, at the end of the day, still a streaming service. As a Disney fan myself, though, it can be hard not to get swept up in the magic that the service contains. Disney is an old-fashioned dream factory, and Disney+ is home to many of those dreams.
