Six awesome beauty products to buy for your man

So that you can sneak them back later! - by Kelly B

Six awesome beauty products to buy for your man

It's always sweet to give the man in your life a luxurious treat or two. I mean, his skin is as precious as yours - as is he. That said, if you're going to provide him with a beauty buy or three we have a secret hint for you. Make sure you choose products that you can use too. Shh. What he doesn't know won't hurt him.

The holidays are fast approaching and maybe you're on the hunt for a beauty buy for your bae. If so, choose carefully and you can get double the bang for your buck. How exactly?

Well, the right buy will mean you make him (and his skin, hair etc) happy which is of course the main thing. But if you're really clever about it, you'll end up with a beauty score that works for you too. Yay! 

But his needs are different from mine I hear you saying. Well, kind of. But not as much as you might think. You see, there are a vast array of skincare products that are perfectly suitable for both you and your man.

Yes, his skin will differ to yours, but not that much. The truth is most products are entirely suitable for both men and women. It’s just that marketers assume that men will be more drawn to masculine packaging, dark shades, strong lines and so on and so their beauty buys tend to have a classic 'masculine' vibe.

The contents however? Largely the same aside from scent which tends to be more masculine. So there you have it. You can use his stuff too. Here, our current favourite 'men's' buys that we can't keep our hands off.

Again, good for you - and him too.
