Have you ever had one of those nights where you were having way too much fun? Your friends were there, good looking women roamed around, and those beers just kept on coming. You just never wanted it to end. Next thing you know it was a bit later than you intended, and you only have a few hours until you need to be awake. When you do get out of bed a few hours later, you look like death. The alcohol puffed up your eyes, and the lack of sleep somehow made black circles form. You look like sh*t. What to do? Find a grooming product that will spring you back to life. Here are a few to try:

(Malin + Goetz) Rice Bran Eye Moisturizer
This (Malin + Goetz) Rice Bran Eye Moisturizer should be your go-to treatment. Rice bran and soja protein amino acids boost capillary circulation to make dark circles go away, puffiness go down, and wrinkles diminish. It also has a fresh scent.

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.

The best products to treat thinning hair without minoxidil

Getting your hair to behave can be extraordinarily difficult – and thinning hair is no exception. Hair loss is a problem faced by millions across the globe, affecting over 80% of males at some point in their lives. Not only is thinning hair more difficult to style, but it can also take a toll on one’s self-esteem. Though the plight of thinning hair is quite common, its roots – pardon the pun – aren’t always easily understood.

Hair loss and thinning hair can be caused by several underlying issues, from nutritional deficiencies to aggressive styling treatments. It’s easy to feel frustrated by this condition, especially when shedding locks turn up everywhere, from your hair brush bristles to the shower floor. Furthermore, many popular solutions for thinning hair are often invasive, expensive, or can lead to unpleasant side effects. One of the most commonly used products, Minoxidil, better known as Rogaine, is also toxic to fuzzy friends like dogs and cats.

Fun fact: Humans shed. While you may think, "Yuck," this process serves a distinct purpose: It removes dead skin cells to make room for new ones. The result? Brighter, clearer skin. Skin cell turnover helps keep your face from looking dull and tired. The process can also reduce the chances of acne and breakouts.

While the skin naturally turns over, your face may need some assistance through exfoliation. Experts generally recommend exfoliating as part of your regular skincare routine (though not necessarily daily). You'll find tons of exfoliating products in the skincare aisle and tons more DIY recipes out there. How to exfoliate the face depends on your skin type. Here's what to know.
