XMAS GIFT IDEAS FOR MEN
Today it's time to share some Xmas gift ideas for the men in your life, your brother, your dad, your hubby… I've got a good selection of different suggestions for you..
Milkman is a Sydney brand that prides themselves in making premium quality shaving products for men, loaded with botanical and top quality ingredients. And my husband has lately been loving the Milkman Clear Shave Gel.
The gel is soap free, so it is very gentle, even on sensitive skin, and it doesn't give him the usual dryness in the areas of his face where he shaves, but leaves his skin feeling soft and smooth and free from irritation. The actual shaving gel comes in a huge 500ml bottle, and there's enough for over 100 shaves in a bottle, it is very concentrated and just takes a few pumps each time. Unlike other shaving gels it is non-foaming and goes on to the skin clear, so its easier for him to see what he is doing, and avoid missing any hairs for a closer shave. And if hubby doesn't have access to water, no need to worry, as any excess can simply be wiped off and anything remaining will just absorb into his skin where the aloe vera, peppermint and rosemary oils will help both cool the skin, but also moisturise and nourish his skin. It has a lovely natural fresh, yet very masculine scent that any male will enjoy.
New socks and jocks! How often have you heard that when asking your dad etc for gift ideas! I know I have, and always found it the dullest Xmas idea ever. Somehow pretty female lingerie seems different, but is it. I know my husband will love some good quality boxer shorts including these from Playboy. The Playboy Classic Black boxers features the classic Playboy written branding, while the Playboy Arrow Head Black boxers features white arrow on the sides and the Playboy Rabbit Head logo on the waist. Both are made from a luxury cotton blend with 95% and 5% elastane with double stitching that adds support and tightly holds, his eaarh, well 'boys' in place, while still being comfortable thanks to the smooth elastic waistband. There are heaps of different designs available, so there's a design for every taste.
These day all computers, laptops and phones have inbuilt speakers, but sometimes they just don't provide adequate sound, or are simply not loud enough, and that's when I love adding 'proper' speakers. So what about these cool USB powered R12U speakers from Edifier. The have the most stunning bright red colour (but also available in white and black), have the coolest and sleekest design ever, designed to be on an angle to drive the sound directly to you for a better sound and listening experience.
The small compact size, and the fact that they are very light, means that you can easily take them with you, or move them around. And don't be fooled by the small size, as the sound the give, is seriously clear and loud. They are designed with a bass reflex port, to make everything clear and rich, and also come with a 3.5mm AUX input to plug in an iPod, tablet, laptop or phone, and they are quick and simple to use, as there is just one simple knob to turn the speaker on and off, as well as adjust the volume with a single dial. Clear & rich sound. They also have input to plug in headphones for privacy. These small speakers would also be ideal in kids bedrooms, due to their compact size! I love that they are not only beautiful to look at, but the sound is great too - and so is the price, as considering the quality of these speakers, they are insanely budget friendly.
Or what about Victorinox Tinker Swiss Army Knife! Personally I have one of the tiny Victorinox knives as my keyring on my house keys, it has just a few basics in it, including a nail file and tiny scissors, and I absolutely love the convenience of it, and even hubby often asks if he can use it when we're out and about. The Tinker version is a bigger, more 'male' Tinker model, that has a massive 12 functions including large and small blade, can opener, 2 x screwdriver, bottle opener, wire stripper, reamer, punch and sewing awl, Philip screwdriver and key ring - and yet, it weighs a measly 62g! The classic red army knife is truly a reliable, and functional tool, and wherever your hubby is, he'll always have the tool at hand to be able to fix things up in a hurry.
This pack from Remington is incredible value. It contains a Rechargeable Remington shaver as well as a L’Oreal Men Expert Hydra Powder After Shave Balm to keep his skin hydrate and soft for up to 24 hours. The Remington has a multi-directional pivoting neck and flexing head for a more comfortable shave, and also has a dual track stainless steel blades, so he can have a closer shave, that is also quick and easy to do. The shaver also featured a pop up trimmer so he can trim sideburns and any other facial hair, and as the head detaches from the shaver and can be washed, it is easy to keep clean. The shaver has a rechargeable battery and it gives 30 minutes of cordless use time. It also comes with a safety cap for the shaver head, a storage pouch and cleansing brush. With a two year warranty, this is a brilliant buy!
Finally, there's the UE Roll from Ultimate Ears. And this light round disc is sure to be music to your ears. Literally it is the ultimate wireless speaker that you can take with you everywhere you go, and it is easy to carry thanks to the super stretchy bungee-cord.
It has a 360 degree sound and it is waterproof so it survives a trip in the pool, but is also designed adventure, also surviving a drop to the floor - as they say, it is 'virtually indestructible'! And it has a massive 9 hours battery life, so it is brilliant to take with you on the go, also because it is so small and compact, only being about the size of a man's hand and weighing just 340g. It also features a 20m wireless range, so even in my large house, it picks up the music from my iphone in one end of the house, yet still plays crisp sound at the other end of the house. And you can pair up to 8 Bluetooth devices (including two at the same time!!), including smart phones and tablets and even my smart TV.
It has a stunning simplistic design that I really love - I mean, how clever is the embroidered minus and plus on the face, which you simply push lightly for volume control. It is also simple to switch on and off, with a single button the back, and the USB ports in the back are cleverly hidden behind a little flap. It comes in a range of cool colours and designs, including this funky orangy-red.

FATHER'S DAY GIFT IDEA: SILVER BULLET CERAMIC PRO 240 PROFESSIONAL HAIR CLIPPER
Today on the blog I've got another amazing Father's Day gift suggestion for you, the Ceramic Pro 240 Professional Hair Clipper from Silver Bullet..
I personally have a Silver Bullet Hair Straightener, and while I am lucky as a beauty blogger to have tested out several different brands of hair straighteners, the Silver Bullet without a doubt still rates at the top of my list as the quality is simply second to none (you can read all about it here). And the same goes for this Hair Clipper, the moment you hold it in your hands, you can tell that it is premium quality, where attention has been paid to every detail.
The Ceramic Pro 240 Hair Clipper has the ability to be used both with and without the cord, making it even easier to use, and once fully charged it has a massive 240 minutes of cutting time thanks to the long life lithium battery.
The Hair Clipper is also super powerful and fast making cutting the hair even quicker and easier, and it features a cool LCD display that tells about the RPM, the tension cutting pressure and the amount of time remaining before it needs to be recharged. It also has adjustable blade speed to suit any thickness of hair. It also comes with four different attachment combs in 12mm, 9mm, 6mm and 3mm, so it also allows for a large variety of hair styles and lengths, as well as it also includes lubricating oil and cleaning brush so you can maintain the high performance of the clipper.
My husband has not allowed me to cut his hair with the clipper, but watching him do it, just looks so quick and easy. My husband likes to keep his hair short and neat, but sometimes between work commitments and having two young boys, finding the time isn't always easy - so that's where being able to do it yourself makes sense.
At $169.95 this Silver Bullet Ceramic Pro 240 Hair Clipper is amongst one of the pricier ones on the market, but compared to the cheap ones my husband has previously had (and he has had a few as the quality of them is generally so poor they don't tend to last long), this is by far the best quality one he has had, and again, you can tell from the moment that you hold it in your hand - so can definitely agree with the 'Professional' in the name of the clipper, as it is the sort of quality you'd expect a hair dresser to have and use.

FATHER'S DAY GIFT IDEA: RITUALS SAMURAI MEN'S SKINCARE COLLECTION
Today I've got a few more great Father's Day gift ideas to share with you, these ones from Ritual... 
My husband is luckily not afraid to use grooming products (lucky when he's married to an obsessed beauty blogger!), and I have caught him over the years using my products, until I realised that it was worthwhile making sure he had his own so he would leave mine alone!
That said, he does enjoy a quick routine, although he still frequently use a face wash and scrub. The Rituals Samurai Face Scrub & Wash, is a foaming 2-in-1 wash and scrub that has been enriched with purifying properties of Japanese Wakame, Bamboo as well as exfoliating scrubbing particles to remove dead skin cells and excess oil, dirt and grime from the skin.
Sometimes my husband complains that facial scrubs seem to do little for his skin (usually when he has pinched a squirt one of my gentle ones) , but he has said that he is impressed with this one, as it grainy but without being to harsh on the skin, and it clearly makes his face feel so much softer, smoother and brighter when he has used it. While he is blessed with really good skin, he does suffer with some blackheads on his nose, but since starting to use this scrub a few times a week, these have clearly reduced in appearance and quantity. He also loves that it has a nice masculine scent.
He has also really enjoyed using the Rituals Samurai Refreshing After Shave Gel with Basil and Tiger Grass, as shaving his face ever morning seems to have a drying effect on his face, and he found that this After Shave Gel has helped add moisture back into the skin, and relieve any dryness and irritation from shaving.
He also really likes the scent, which is totally different to anything else he has in his (growing) aftershave collection, as it does not appear to be a man-made scent, but rather a natural, fresh, and spicy masculine scent, that lingers on the skin for the day.
The Face Scrub & Wash come in grey tube, while the After Shave Gel comes in grey glass bottle with a timber lid, making both look very stunning with their simple, yet masculine design.
Overall my hubby is really impressed with these products from Ritual, so can definitely recommend that you check them out, and they're the perfect gift for Father's Day too!
Rituals Samurai After Shave Gel - RRP: $37 / 100ml
Rituals Samurai Face Scrub & Wash - RRP: $22 / 125ml

PRODUCT REVIEW: L'OREAL MEN EXPERT VITA LIFT GIFT SET
It has been quite a while since I have had my dear hubby guest posting on my blog, and he has had his review due for me for quite some time. Way too long actually, but between moving house and him starting a new job too, I guess he has had a pretty good excuse! Anyway, here are his thoughts;
What They Say:
Men Expert Vita Lift Revitalising Foam: Loss of firmness? Help fight the signs of ageing with Men Expert Vita Lift. With age, skin becomes dry. Using soap to cleanse daily can make your skin feel tight and uncomfortable... take action with Vita Lift. RRP: $8.50 (150ml)
Men Expert Shaving Hydra Sensitive Shaving Gel: The L'Oréal laboratories put all their skincare expertise in this anti-irritation skin caring shaving foam, to make shaving less of a challenge and more of a pleasure. RRP: $6.95 (200ml)
Men Expert Vita Lift 5 Daily Moisturiser: With time and excess fatigue, your skin loses its vitality; signs of ageing start to appear...Take action! This complete anti-ageing Daily Moisturiser is enriched with Pro-Retinol to help fight the signs of ageing with 5 actions in 1 step. RRP: $19.45 (50ml)
- Available from Priceline
What He Says:
I was asked by my lovely wife if I would try another couple of products for her, I again thought here we go I am a guinea pig for something. The best part was she gave me the L’Oreal Men Expert products which I am more than familiar with.
I will admit I do try to look after my skin but with the demands of the morning rush I do not always do everything that I probably should, I will shave and for me washing my face is normally something that happens in the shower not a morning ritual like some, I try to catch up on these duties on the weekend.
So this morning I went about giving my face a good wash using the Revitalising Foam, this was a new product for me and I was pleased with how it felt on the skin, it was refreshing and being a man that unfortunately has a few blackheads and other blemishes on my face I feel long term use of this would help eliminate these for me, so maybe I will have to find myself the extra couple of minutes in the morning and change my ritual. The foam goes on easily and rubs in well without any real fragrance to irritate a sensitive nose. I felt it washed off easily and my face did feel clean with no greasy after effects.
The Shaving Gel is great and I really like using it. I have to admit I prefer a gel over cream and this one spreads well and lathers up nicely and I definitely feel it helps the razor blades glide over the face. I tend to like a shaving gel that spreads easily and has enough hold to stay on my face and fall either on me or into the sink. It has a light fragrance which I find a fresh smell and one that does not want to fight against any aftershave I use.
The third part of the pack was the Vita Lift 5 which is an Anti-Ageing Action and is supposedly to assist with Wrinkles, Dryness, Sagging, Puffiness and Dullness. I have used this for the past three or so years now off and on and I love it, I really like the bottle it comes in as the does you get from a simple push on the top seems to be just right per application.
I have also tried to cut one of these open at one stage (with great difficulty) when empty thinking there will be plenty left over and to my surprise there was nothing, the bottle is so well designed it empties completely. Seeing I am nearing the large round birthday I have quite a few wrinkles and I would have to say they have not gone from using the Vita Lift, maybe they have slowed along with the sagging, puffiness and dullness, I honestly cannot say I feel this has been a huge benefit, but when we talk dryness I would have to say this is the best cream I have ever used. It covers well, it is non greasy and certainly leaves my face feeling refreshed and with no sign of a dry bit of skin. The Vita Lift is certainly a moisturizer I always keep in the shaving cabinet and especially when I travel for work and have to put up with the air-conditioned environments that suck the moisture from my face.

So there you go, my hubby’s unedited words on the L’Oreal Men Expert Vita Lift range.
Does your hubby care for his skin? Does he use his own products? Or maybe pinch yours..?

FATHER'S DAY GIFT IDEAS FROM NATIO
Did you know there is just over a month until it is Father’s Day? It’s on the 7th September this year to be exact. While Mother’s day tend to be the same day all over the world, Father’s day varies, which can make it confusing. And add to that there is so much less advertising about Father’s Day than Mother’s Day. My Dad lives in Denmark, where it was in early June, so the present is all done and dusted. However, I do need to find something for my husband, and I as have lots of ideas, so in a series of posts I will share some of these.
First up is a new grooming goodies from Natio
Natio for Men Groom Gift Set*
This three step grooming gift set contains the essentials your main needs. A Daily Face Wash (150ml) to gently remove dirt and impurities from the skin to keep it blemish free without drying it out, a Smooth Shave Gel (150g), to give him a smooth close shave without irritation, and a Firming Face Moisturiser with 30SPF to help nourish the skin and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles while protecting it from the sun’s harmful rays.
The products all have nice subtle masculine scents, while the moisturiser has a more subtle scent so it doesn’t irritate the face area. It comes packaged in a handy clear toilet bag.
