6 grooming essentials for low-maintenance guys, from face moisturiser to lip balm, comb and an electric shaver, plus 3 non-essentials
- If you want to keep your face looking and feeling its best you need a grooming kit that covers your basic needs, starting with an electric shaver that suits you
- Tweezers are good to have because they are multipurpose, and you’ll need a comb, whether just for your hair or your beard too; moisturiser is a must
A good grooming kit will feature some essential tools that will allow you to handle nearly every hair-related duty at home.
From beard trimmers to pre-shave oils and safety razors, no matter your skin type or facial hair situation, there are a few key items every man should keep handy for proper maintenance.
1. Electric shaver
Even if you’re more of a razor person, a good-quality electric shaver should always be a priority in your kit. There are hundreds of types, features and functions, so make sure you get one that’ll cover all your shaving needs.
Keeping an electric shaver handy has many benefits. Their portability makes them ideal for a quick shave pretty much anywhere – from your bathroom or shower to the gym, the airport or your office.
You’ll also avoid some of the struggles that come with razor blades, such as ingrown hairs, burns, cuts and skin irritation.
