Tips and Inspiration
From Unilever Beauty Experts
From tech-powered tools to all-in-one gear, today’s self-care tools are next level. Is your grooming kit updated? If you can’t find a device in there that’s making an electric hum, whirr, or buzz, you might just be living in the past. It’s time to update your arsenal with these cool, new hygiene gadgets for men.
Your good ol’ razors are a thing of the past. An electric shaver is a true game-changer that will give you a cleaned-up look without the razor burns and ingrown hairs. Electric shavers come with multiple settings you can calibrate depending on the shave you want and where you’re trimming. Plus, they’re quicker to use and easier to clean.
This handy dandy gadget makes styling your facial hair more convenient. Get one with interchangeable heads and adjustable settings to shape and style your beard with more control and precision. Plus, you can achieve different looks with it: a neat stubble, a fancy whisker, or a sculpted look.
Add this step – and this tool – to prepare your face for a better shave. An electric face polisher exfoliates and revitalizes your skin by gently removing dead cells and stimulating blood circulation. It works like a massage tool for your face and uses a spinning brush and vibration to give your skin a thorough cleanse.
ICYDK, washing your face with a hardworking cleanser also preps your skin before shaving. Try Dove Men+Care Body+Face Bar Extra Fresh, which deeply cleanses without leaving your skin feeling tight or dry, thanks to its ¼ moisturizing cream and nutrient-rich formula.
Spotted a hair strand out of place? A hair clipper comes in handy on in-between days that call for a little trim but not exactly a full cut (yet!). Hair clippers are built to handle thicker, denser hair, and a good quality one lets you DIY a buzz cut or a partial trim if you need one, stat!
Nope, blow dryers aren’t just for styling. It can also help tame frizz and keep moisture locked in for a more polished look. Choose a hair dryer with ionic and ceramic technology to avoid hair damage due to heat.
What to do with all the hair, er… all over? A body groomer is the modern man’s best friend (no offense to the cavemen!). Unlike your beard trimmers and hair clippers (which, let’s be honest, you may be tempted to use on your body), this tool is designed to navigate the curves and angles of your body. It can trim hair even in hard-to-reach areas, such as your back, chest, armpits, and all the in-betweens.
Be an example of head-to-toe good hygiene. Get yourself a callus remover to slough away stubborn calluses that can’t be eliminated through moisturizing or buffing. Unlike a manual tool, an electric callus remover uses a rotating roller to help scrub away hardened skin. You can also adjust its settings to make the pressure and intensity just right for you.
The future of oral care is here. Often, you focus on caring for your teeth and gums, but what about the tongue? An electric tongue cleaner uses vibration technology to help eliminate odor-causing bacteria from the surface of your tongue more efficiently. The result is a fresher mouthfeel and improved oral health.
It’s a gadget you wished you had when you were a kid, yes? This makes brushing easier and faster, not to mention more fun. Most electric toothbrushes come with a timer to indicate when you’ve brushed long enough, as well as automatic head replacement functions, so you’re reminded to change your brush head when it’s time.
Pew, pew! Try hard not to play with the water! Flossing is yet another chore you might be tempted to skip but a water flosser changes the game. It shoots small bursts of water through the gaps between your teeth (it feels ticklish!) to remove food particles and plaque more effectively.
Consider yourself lucky to live in a time when cutting-edge hygiene tools are within reach. With this curated list of grooming gadgets for men, you can maintain a clean and well-kempt appearance easily and effortlessly.
