Soothe Your Bristles With The Art of Shaving Beard and Stubble Kit

To put it simply, we would recommend anything of The Art of Shaving’s effective grooming products for men. However, some of our favorites from the storied New York-based grooming gurus usually come in the form of a diligently designed formula that caters to a specific need. The Art of Shaving Beard and Stubble Kit meticulously softens stubble and maintains healthy growth, leaving your beard refreshed and ready for the world.

A beard grooming routine is dependent on many factors. From seasonal changes and special occasions, to your beard’s overall length and attitude, your routine will ultimately depend on a mix of things, coupled with end result you want. On the other hand, maintaining stubble is something that can be accomplished with just a handful of help.

We’ve touched on how to grow and maintain stubble in the past, but even with bountiful beard oil, stubble is one of those things that can still be difficult to keep feeling the way you want it to. The Art of Shaving Beard and Stubble Kit features a simple trifecta of products that will keep your bristles soft and your face feeling happy.

The kit features a heap of high-quality essential oils, including jojoba seed to soften coarse hair, peppermint for a stimulating scent and added brightness, and olive oil to lend a hand on keeping your stubble soothed and moisturized.

When stubble becomes coarse and hard, it’s an uncomfortable feeling that can linger throughout the day and get in the way of your grind. The Art of Shaving’s new Stubble Balm softens and hydrates fresh stubble with a conditioning blend of glycerin and sandalwood essential oil. In fact, this is one of our new favorite products that we recommend everyone adds to their grooming regimen.

The Art of Shaving Peppermint Beard Wash

Peppermint Beard Wash

Beard wash is an essential component to keeping stubble soft, clean, and refreshed. This formula features an invigorating blend of peppermint, jojoba, and eucalyptus essential oils, among others, to help strip your skin of excess oils and dirt while also retaining just the right amount of moisture and shine. The Art of Shaving Beard Wash is also effective with longer beard lengths.

The Art of Shaving Peppermint Beard Conditioner

Much like the hair on your head, if you’re going to wash your beard, you’ll want to follow that up with a cleansing beard conditioner. This conditioner features the same hydrating essential oils as the beard wash, but the addition of extra jojoba seed and castor oil is what really makes this blend the nourishing numen you need.

You can buy The Art of Shaving Beard and Stubble Kit at a discounted bundle price, or opt to pick up one of the aforementioned products solo. However, the products do work better together.

Vitamin C is essential for men's skincare

For most people -- myself included -- vitamin C is a dietary concern, and like them, I make an effort to incorporate it in my daily meals and snacks. They know it’s common in citrus fruits and many other beneficial foods, but they have no idea that it can be a significant factor in enhancing skincare.
The men who do get it know they’re on to something. For men, vitamin C for skin is just as essential, and getting products that incorporate it is a key part of their daily skincare regimen. Like me, they know what those compounds and products are, and they understand what skincare with vitamin C provides and how it works. But it’s not hard to get those same results with a little research and some extra work, so I'm here to help you get those same advantages.

Whether you’re celebrating with a date or friends or indulging in self-love, Valentine’s Day is all about indulging in the pleasantries of life. Perfectly curated plans, a fresh haircut, and a stylish outfit aren’t complete without the right fragrance to tie it all together. But wait–you don’t want to reach for your everyday staples when spraying on a cologne for a special occasion. 

Instead, try enjoying a few sprays of something you don’t wear often, or treat yourself to a new fragrance altogether. Whichever option you choose, it’s key to pick a fragrance that fits the mood of your V-day festivities so your scent doesn’t clash with how you’ll be enjoying the holiday.

For many men, myself included, aftershave products can easily become an afterthought, and some men even see it as unnecessary. What does aftershave do, anyway? Having a busy schedule can make it tough to add much of anything to this basically simple ritual, and there are plenty of men who are unwilling to wade into the ocean of products with claims of benefits that range from the exaggerated to the outrageous.
But this is a serious mistake. If you fall into this category, you’re missing out on many of the basic benefits a quality aftershave provides — not to mention the fact that a great aftershave scent can make you a lot more attractive. You do need to know some things about aftershave products in advance, so let’s review in a way that will allow you to match the product to your personal shaving needs.
