Old Spice Unleashes Beard Care Line with NFL Brothers Travis and Jason Kelce

After years of telling men to smell better through hilarious television commercials, Old Spice has finally entered the facial hair grooming world. The only problem with the new Old Spice Beard Collection? That it took the brand so damned long to create it.

Teaming up with two beard-sporting, Ohio-born, NFL-playing brothers, Jason Kelce of the Philadelphia Eagles and Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs, Old Spice released the

just in time for guys “looking to grow out their beards for Octobeard (and Novembeard and Decembeard),” said the brand with its quintessentially zany style.

The Kelce brothers aren’t just the faces of the products — they’ve also put their beard philosophy to work by helping Old Spice author a book of poetry focused specifically on beards, entitled The Old Spice Guys’ Grooming Guidance Guide for Guis with Beards & Other Poems. The tome is, as you can imagine, as funny, witty, campy, and slapdash as you’d expect from a company that soared to pop-culture phenomenon after launching the “Smell like a Man, Man” campaign. (Remember that single cut of a man transitioning from a bathroom to a sailboat to riding a horse on a beach?)

Along with the beard poetry, there are also very real and very useful beard grooming products on offer. The full lineup includes a beard wash, beard conditioner, beard balm, and beard oil. Don’t want to purchase them all separately? Save time and money by

These 8 ingredients are the secret to thicker hair, according to experts
Thinning hair? Consider these expert-recommended ingredients for voluminous locks
Man getting haircut, view from back

Volume isn't only for muscles. You may notice your hair is thinning. While you've heard that hair thins as you age (naturally), you may not be ready. Is getting thicker hair possible? One hair surgeon constantly fields this question from men.
"Many men are interested in volumizing their hair because thinning or fine hair can make them feel older or less confident," said Dr. Ross Kopelman, MD, a hair transplant surgeon at Kopelman Hair Restoration with offices in New York and Palm Beach. "Hair loss is a common concern, and even if they aren’t experiencing significant shedding, many want their hair to appear thicker and fuller."
There's certainly nothing wrong with aging or embracing thinning hair (or rocking a bald 'do). However, you can find ingredients for thicker hair in everyday products. Experts shared their most recommended ingredients for fuller hair (and a few to avoid).
8 ingredients for thicker hair in men

Everyone's body will respond differently to ingredients. Certain factors, like genetics and overall health, may contribute to male-pattern baldness. Your best bet is to speak with a dermatologist about ways to improve your hair and whether or not these ingredients for thicker hair will work for you.

MANSCAPED teams up with Testicular Cancer Society for bold promo
The Ball Hero Bundle and a NASCAR hook are the key elements in Year 5 of this partnership
MANSCAPED Hero Ball Bundle

For those who know MANSCAPED from a distance, the company has a reputation for outrageous marketing and for being a pioneer when it comes to down-under men’s grooming. (We’re not talking Australia here, either.)
But MANSCAPED also has a social conscience, and the company definitely knows how to stay in its lane when it comes to promos and pursuing worthy, relevant causes. Its latest promo, which dropped on April Fool’s Day, isn’t about testicular tomfoolery. Instead, it’s designed to promote awareness and prevent testicular cancer once again in the firm’s ongoing partnership with the Testicular Cancer Society (TCS).

Heineken jumps into the men’s skincare game with Smootheriser skin cream
The ingredients in this skincare cream are the same as those in the beer

The next time you pour yourself a cold one, take a good look at the head before you quaff that first sip. For that matter, you might want to reconsider the entire beer, because it turns out it has the ability to multitask and lead a double life as a skincare product.
Wait, what?
Yeah, it may come off as a tough concept to swallow, but it turns out it’s true. If your choice of brews is Heineken, you’ll doubtless want to know that the renowned beer company is launching the “Heineken Smootheriser,” a beauty cream that’s blatantly designed to take advantage of the brand’s ongoing popularity in the beer world.
