The rigours of weather and travel on skin…
Shaving and skin care researchers at Gillette have launched a rather handy Facebook App which analyses the effect your daily travel routine has on your skin. The App was created off the back of a survey which highlighted that an astonishing 100% of men (yes, every man!) have moisturised at some point in their life but only a 1/3 moisturise regularly. Basically, next time you get an ribbing from your mates about moisturising you can smile safely in... Read More
The Fragrant Ape wears Scent: How the Ape chooses it
With care and patience! NEVER rush it. Half the pleasure is in the choosing and the deliberation. You are making an investment here so take your time and let it be a good one. The Golden Rule: shop alone! A companion will only distract, get bored, put you off or impose his own views. Perfume is ultra-personal, highly subjective. The most important thing is to please yourself: you are looking for a scent that you can’t wait to spray on every... Read More
Young Men Spend more on Beauty Products than Women
The young British male’s weekly spend on looking good has now overtaken that of the fairer sex, according to a survey carried out by sports nutrition company, Multipower.

Gents, we have a great survey for you today courtesy of head&shoulders classic clean. 4,500 Brits were polled in the search for the male celebrity they thought was most likely to have the best smelling hair.

Before we reveal who the winner was, we thought it worth a mention that musician Pete Doherty and... Read More
Aqua Sheko Fish Therapy Spa
Following on from the launch of Aqua Sheko on Monday, we have some images of the tanks and spa itself for those that were wondering (like us) exactly what the ‘new’ concept treatment would entail. At first glance you would almost fail to recognise the fish tanks were even there with the oriental inspired décor more like that of a West End bar, rather than an aquarium or spa. As it is a foot treatment you’ll only need to remove your footwear... Read More
sen7 Fragrance Atomizer
Summer. It’s pretty warm at the moment and with higher temperatures still on the horizon, keeping fresh this summer may be a difficult task. To begin with, make sure you have a reliable anti-perspirant (as opposed to deodorant) and keep your summer scent topped up while on the move. This doesn’t mean you bathe from head to toe in your scent of choice, simply stick to the normal application rules (i.e. spray your pulse points), but... Read More
Polo Classic Fragrances to Go…
Travelling laws are getting more stringent by the year; the scene of ‘distressed’ holiday makers frantically rooting through their previously perfectly packed luggage has become all to regular. You’re then forced to dispose of nearly new toiletries in the bin, which no doubt some more astute employee at the airport will be making a small fortune from. Grooming brands are slowly but surely recognising this issue, and are starting to produce... Read More
