It might be one of the cheapest Exfoliating scrubs. But I think it's great and makes my skin feel and look great. Helps with facial hair too.

I first found out about Tiege Hanley through YouTube and then got a skincare set one Christmas. Slightly more on the expensive side than what i use regularly. But it is lovely and it does a very good job for facial skincare

Smooth Operator Serums

I am very much into my aftershaves and have going-out scents and at-home scents. My fave is Joop and it always will be. It is an aftershave from my younger days but still my No1

Classy scent and lasts a long time. This for me, is a Timeless Classic. I know some people have a love-hate relationship with Joop because of its popularity i suppose. I have always been a huge fan
Joop! Homme Eau de Toilette 125 ml

This aftershave is amazing and it has subtle tones, especially compared to Joop. I feel this can be a going-out scent as well as a casual time scent. In my Top 3 aftershaves

This has a very subtle scent but it smells fresh and because it is a balm it feels amazing on the skin as well.

The smell is very nice, it is a shame the smell disappears so quickly. Still, an aftershave I like to use on occasion. I also have the white bottle Lacoste in this list.

I do not grow my facial hair fully, but I have stubble. I use this shampoo two times a week and it does wonders. I have even started shaving with it and I noticed it has improved my beard growth since doing so

If i do a wet shave my skin reacts badly. since i have been using this Trimmer it has stopped all skin irritation and it might not be the best on the market, but it does a job and i like it.

Facial hairs are instantly softer, and more nourished, and the skin underneath is in better condition. Smells great.

I cannot cope with going completely grey. So I used to dye my hair regularly. But now I prefer GX control. I saw results after 3 to 4 weeks of use.

Check out my list of hair products. I use these to keep my hair looking good…. well I hope it looks good anyway. I tend to alternate between hair spray and gel, but i have recently got into salt spray as well.

I do not need much of this on my hair. It Holds well and can be restyled once applied. Drys very quickly and smells nice. I think i prefer a hairspray at times to a gel etc.

I have tried a lot of gels in my time, But for the dry look, this one works the best for my hair and can be restyled throughout the day. However, it can also lock your hair in place if applied to a good standard.

Adds a nice subtle shine, thickens, and untangles my hair, and just overall makes my hair way more cooperative in the morning. If you suffer with dry hair, i would not use this everyday.
