THE ART OF SHAVING
OLIBANUM + PEPPER
SHAVING CREAM
It comes out of the jar already
rich and lathered, but what
we love about this cream is the
subtle, rich scent. It smells
like a fancy spa but won’t over-
power your cologne. $30
LA PRAIRIE SKIN CAVIAR
EYE LIFT
It’ll be worth every penny of its
high price tag when you realize
this eye cream is able to erase
the look of all those late nights
with just a few uses. $480
TOM FORD RESEARCH
SERUM CONCENTRATE
It’s the Tom Ford effect for
your medicine cabinet. This
serum immediately brightens
your skin, but it also helps it
stay healthy and look younger
with consistent use. $350
CREST 3D WHITE
CHARCOAL TOOTHPASTE
The charcoal in this toothpaste
is added value, not the main
event. It doesn’t compromise any
whitening power or leave your
sink looking like an oil spill. $7
SUPERGOOP! SUPERSCREEN
DAILY MOISTURIZER
SPF 40 PA+++
If you’re not wearing sunscreen
every day, start now. This
daily moisturizer has a higher
SPF than others, but you don’t
feel like you’re spreading glue
on your face. $38

HARRY’S TEXTURIZING

Somewhere between a
pomade and a clay, this all-
around stellar styler makes
