Not to generalize, but it does seem the case that men tend not to go out of their way to prevent the ravages of aging. You guys have some bad habits. For instance, not using protection against the evil death rays of the sun, passing out in bed without washing off the grime of the day, and going sans moisturizer on the daily. These are things women are practically hardwired to do to keep the wrinkles and sagging skin at bay. And though at first men do age better than women, by age 50 there is a precipitous drop in both hydration levels and skin thickness, which all translates to deep wrinkles, dark circles, sagging. Kiehl’s decided to zero in on men’s skin needs and concerns to create a hardcore age fighting range—Age Defender.

Kiehls

One way it’s geared towards you is that it’s a total of three products because guys don’t appreciate a time-consuming five-step regimen like their lady cohorts. The three products work together to get the job done:

Within the range, there is a superhero of a Serum that does the heavy lifting.
A lightweight firming Moisturizer that will convince grease-prone faces to start hydrating and, as a bonus, offers exfoliating action.
And the Eye Repair Cream to take care of the crow’s feet and unwanted baggage.

They harness the power of natural ingredients, like Cypress, Linseed, and Rye Seed Extracts, to help you relive your youth, or well, at least get back a few years of your life on your face. Even if you’re not quite at the point in your life when you start seeing the signs of your bad behavior, it can’t hurt to start caring a little and slathering the stuff on.

Achieve the look: Your guide to the Travis Kelce haircut

Get an NFL-worthy fade

Sports and entertainment tend to have a massive influence on our society's grasp of style. Some of the best trends can be attributed to our favorite actors, musicians, and athletic heroes sporting the looks we love. Miles Teller and Henry Cavil can be directly thanked for their contributions to the return of the mustache. Marlon Brando and James Dean found ways to take functional garments like the leather jacket and the everlasting denim jeans to rebellious casual. And, of course, nobody can take more credit for the aviator sunglasses trend than Tom Cruise.

Our hairstyles are also often copied from the uber-famous, and NFL superstar Travis Kelce is doing his part to contribute, as he sports a very specific look. Here's how to achieve and rock the Travis Kelce haircut.

Celebrities tend to play a huge part in pushing style trends on a yearly basis. In the early 2000s, the rise of the pop star launched the low-rise jeans. The hip-hop culture drove the explosion of sneakers and baggy clothing. And James Bond continues to influence the elevated looks worn by men everywhere.

When it comes to hair, Bruce Willis and Jason Statham made the bald look sexy, while the likes of Jason Mamoa and Chris Hemsworth brought the long hair vibe to the forefront. But there is a new hair trend returning to prominence, and it will bring back the nostalgic vision of the 90s: The surfer curtains.

Electric shaver vs. razor: Which is better for your face?

An answer to the age old question of which shave method is better

Whether you are the kind of guy who likes to rock the clean shaven look while you conquer Wall Street in a suit, or you are the kind of guy that likes to sport the long and thick mane of a beard while you work outdoors, you have to shave your face. Shaving all over or simply shaping your beard means you are involved in the age-old question of electric shaver vs razor. Of course, which you choose has a lot to do with your lifestyle.

Just like trying to decide what the best shoes are for you, or electing to dive into what the best suits are for you, it all comes down to the kind of lifestyle you lead. If you are an outdoorsman, you have very specific needs for your shave routine. It needs to be fast and portable. If you are a man with a love of luxury, then you may love to take your time with a solid routine. That may even be the kind of self-care you need to center yourself in the morning.
