It’s time to head outdoors, hit the beach and celebrate the season. Guys need to freshen up their look and I’ve discovered several products to help you all summer long. This is what you need inside your backpack this month to travel locally or internationally: L3VEL3, Viktor&Rolf, Beard Guyz, MyChelle, and Forme.
Let’s start with the most important product. It’s summer. The sun is glaring down, even through the clouds. Regardless, we always preach about protecting the skin. I know firsthand as my father was a golfer and refused to wear sunscreen. It was a generational thing where he believed that real men don’t use creams or products except for basic bar soap. He learned a very hard lesson with melanoma.
Everyone needs to protect their epidermis. I recommend MyChelle Protect. I selected this product because it comes in a lotion form and convenient spray with a 50 SPF — that is the most important for skin protection. I chose the spray option as it’s easy to apply for all outdoor sports like swimming or golf. Trust me on this.
I am lucky to still have a full head of hair. Some men look amazing with a bald head or a shaved scalp. I don’t belong to that club. To fix your hair and make it look great, I recommend pomade. This month I suggest you try L3VEL3. Their hold level 2 works perfectly for my hair so I don’t have a windswept, frazzled look. All you need is to rub a little of the paste in your palms and then comb or brush your hair to achieve the look that you want.
Beard Guyz by Van Der Hagen offers everything men need to shave, trim and sculpt the fur. I’ve tried their beard butter, beard conditioner and beard oil. I only have a goatee, which is easy to manage, but if you sport a full face of hair, these products are a must-have to maintain your face. Check them out at the link below.
Going on a date for dinner or perhaps the cinema? Spray a little cologne. This summer, I suggest Spicebomb Infrared by Viktor&Rolf. It’s made with spicy habanero red pimento and has sweet middle notes of red berry oil. The smooth notes of tobacco round out the complete fragrance. Above all, it’s alluring and refreshing for these hot, steamy summer nights — everyone the traveling man encounters will agree. I will be reviewing more scents from Viktor&Rolf and others throughout the season.
I am always on the go and on my feet — it keeps me fit. I’ve discovered these socks that give ankle support by Forme. They grip the ankle like a supportive vice. They also offer arch support socks. My only suggestion is never wear them with sandals or flip-flops. They are perfect for the tennis court or hiking. Check them out at the link below.
