5 Hygiene Products Every GQ Man Should Have



Men often get lost in the shuffle for what they should purchase when it comes to products. Taking care of yourself is imperative to creating a healthy well rounded person.

Here are 5 items that no man should be without.

1-Body Wash for Your Skin Type-Instead of relying on your old standby, choose a skin cleanser based on your skin. First, narrow down whether your go-to bar of soap or liquid cleanser is right for your skin type. Axe Body wash offers a wide variety

2-Floss Good oral hygiene will not only give you a healthy smile and fresh breath.Please Please Brush the Back of your Tounge, The back of your tounge is where all the Bad Breath comes from especially in the mornings, it may reduce your chances of heart disease. Surprised? Studies have found that people who have periodontal disease — gingivitis and periodontitis — have double the risk of a condition called atherosclerosis, which is the hardening of arteries. Flossing, in particular, will remove more than just stray poppy seeds; it also removes plaque that causes gum disease, inflammation and tooth decay.


3-Shaving Cream It may seem OK to substitute your face soap or body wash for shaving cream, but trust us: Shaving cream will make your skin feel lighter. Shaving cream, gel or lotion creates a layer of protection between your skin and the razor blade. That protective layer reduces the drag of the blade, in turn reducing the irritation you have from shaving, such as shaving bumps and razor burn. Choose a thick gel or cream with hydrating ingredients, and let it sit on your skin for a few minutes to soften hairs before shaving. Most Black men prefer to an electric trimmer to avoid the bumps from Razor use but still letting shaving cream sit after a Shower helps. We dont recommend after shave cause it causes irritation on the skin leading to more bumps, A simple wash of after shaving and apply Coco Butter will solve most of your after effect Problems,



4-Antiperspirant or Deodorant Americans
spend more than $1 billion every year on products to stop sweat and body odor [source: Grossman]. It’s big business and a big job — the body has about 2.6 million sweat glands, and a person can produce 1 to 3 liters of sweat in just an hour in a hot climate [source: Fort Worth Star-Telegram]. To combat odor, wetness or both, you’ll want to have an antiperspirant or deodorant (or a combination) in your arsenal. Antiperspirants work by temporarily plugging up your pores, making it impossible for the sweat to escape. Deodorants won’t stop your sweat. Instead, they mask body odor with fragrance and by reducing the number of odor-causing bacteria on our skin.

5-Moisturizer-

Just as you’d consider your skin type when searching for the right body wash, you should consider your particular skin needs when buying a moisturizer. If you have normal skin, the world of moisturizers is wide open to you. If you don’t have normal skin, and many of us don’t, you’ll need to be a little pickier.
