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.

Your beard is a part of your aesthetic ... your look that people know you by. The manly appearance of a good face mane is one of the most stylish aspects for men today. And yet, some of us just can't seem to get the look right. You could be going for something resembling stubble more than anything else. Or you could be looking for a long and flowing beard. Either way, you need the right grooming products to get the job done.

Luckily for you, we have pulled straight from the annual The Manual Grooming Awards to put together the best step-by-step routine to get your beard looking as good as you do.

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.

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.
