The Best Shave From The Personal Barber.

Experience the best shave at-home when using the products from The Personal Barber subscription box that gets delivered straight to your door. I have used previous shaving subscriptions before but the personal barber sets themselves apart from their competitors by offering premium products to perform a traditional wet-shave routine easily. The hassle-free subscription process ensures you receive your new box every six weeks from when u have signed up (No More Forgetting To Buy Blades) and can be paused if you are away on holiday or to your liking. Every month you get to try new and exciting high-quality products that The Personal Barber have exclusively hand picked for you, whilst there is no canned space foam included, just a shaving routine with luxurious natural soaps and other goodies that awaits your shaving routine. Disclaimer: The links in blue are not affiliated and are only used for you to discover the products quicker.

The Personal Barber provides an easy to-follow sign up process on their website that effortlessly glides you through the whole process to join this luxury shave club. The First box includes a safety razor, shaving brush, soap/cream, blades, a handy step by step guide and more, but the most interesting and welcomed addition is the second box and onwards will include completely new products so you will not be sent the same stuff previously that can get boring and repetitive. Keeping your shaving routine exciting and refreshed you can then expect new soaps, blades and extra pre and post-shave products for you to try every time your monthly box is delivered. The box is delivered in recyclable packaging and each product is presented excellently inside with an informative leaflet to explain, here's what is inside:

The Baume pre-shave gel is excellent for all skin types to provide the skin with a burst of hydration whilst protecting the skin from any irritations shaving can bring. Applying a thin layer to wet skin and waiting for it to be absorbed, it is the perfect product that aids in adding an extra protection between your skin and the sharp razor blade, before applying the shaving cream.

The Mondial mandarin and spice shaving cream is presented as a hard texture but soon transforms to a rich lather when whipping it up with your shaving brush included. The unique fragrance influences your wellbeing and brings luxury to your shaving routine, whilst the perfect formulation protects and conditions the skin throughout your shaving routine.

The Personal Barber alum block is a natural stone that provides an antiseptic action whilst also helping to stop the bleeding from those pesky razor cuts by constricting the blood vessels. Applying to a freshly damp skin after shaving, you can monitor if your blades need changing or u need to take extra care in your shaving routine by the sting (Extra Care Needed) or no sting (You Are Doing Great) experienced.

The Perma-Sharp super and Bluebird high stainless replacement blades both provide a superior close shave with longevity that lasts from 4-8 shaving experiences. Perma-sharp have built a reputation on how their blades perform whilst Bluebird are a new brand that coat their blades with the lastest technology to improve razor glide and performance. The blades can be recycled after use unlike plastic cartridge razors!

The Personal Barber shaving brush is made with high quality synthetic hairs that provide softness and longevity when including it in your shaving routine. Whipping up any shaving cream to create a foam, the brush also helps to gently exfoliate the skin and help coat all facial hair for an excellent close shave. Remember to rinse off the brush and leave to air dry to be ready for your next shaving experience.

The Personal Barber double edged safety razor provides a thin head to give you a perfectly controlled shave even for beginners. The solid metal razor feels like luxury in your hand and provides an excellent shave when directing it at 30 degrees for the blade to just touch the skin. Changing the blades is quick and easy by simply unscrewing the handle and placing the blade between both head plates, before reassembling.

Shaving isn't just about taking a razor to your face and hoping for the best, it is about ensuring the best shave possible whilst respecting the skin each time its performed. Achieving the best shave is made possible by what is offered and included in The Personal Barber kits because they offer pre-shave and post-shave products to ensure this. The razor performs excellently once u have mastered the technique of maintaining the 30 degree angle for the blade to slice across the hairs rather than scraping along the base of them, to leave you with a smooth and irritation-free shave! Experience the best shave possible and transform your grooming routine when using The Personal Barber that delivers the finest shaving products delivered straight to your door, x Neil.

The Odylique Superfruit Concentrate Targets Skin Ageing.

Replenish and protect your complexion when easily incorporating the Odylique Superfruit Concentrate into your skincare routine. The multitasking concentrate contains specific ingredients to supply the skin with essential fatty acids, antioxidant vitamins, and replenishing phytosterols that each a play a role to support and improve the skin from the signs of skin ageing. Odylique by Essential Care provide a skincare range for all skin types (even the most sensitive and reactive) by producing scientific formulations that only contain natural actives and organic ingredients, whilst also adding a theraputic element to add to the enjoyable experience each time the products are used. Disclaimer: The links in black are not affiliated and are only used for you to discover the product.

The Odylique Superfruit Concentrate has been tested on sensitive skin volunteers and is never tested on animals, whilst also being vegan-friendly and contains no palm oil. Odylique by Essential Care do not use any synthetic chemicals in their products and there is no ingredient fillers used just to "Bulk Up" the ingredient list that serve no purpose. Utilising just six ingredients for their known skin-loving properties and benefits, i now know why this is called a concentrate because of its pure content. The superfruit concentrate ingredients are:

Persea gratissima fruit oil* - Avocado oil is one of the most beneficial oils to use because it can penetrate the skin easily to deliver its content. Containing vitamins A, D, and E, its rich beta carotene, protein, lecithin, and fatty acid content hydrates the skin whilst also protecting it against harmful UV rays. It also supports collagen and elasticity of the skin and has been known to help with skin inflammation caused by acne, eczema, and psoriasis.

Simmondsia chinensis seed oil* - Jojoba oil penetrates the skin deeply to aid in nourishment of compromised skin and has many properties such as hypoallergenic, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial. Hydrating the skin easily, it also protects and calms any skin issue because of its vitamin E and B content that contributes to repairing and protecting once applied.  

Rosa canina fruit extract* - The plant oil Rosehip is known for its emollient and antioxidant properties it can provide because of its skin-nourishing fatty acid content. Protecting carotenoids and vitamin E act as antioxidants to protect the skin cells from oxidation and can help with the overall appearance of the skin. 

Punica granatum seed extract* - Antioxidant Pomegranate provides regenerating properties to the skin to help repair itself and stop further damage by preventing the breakdown of collagen fibres that contribute to sun-damaged and ageing skin. It also has been known to speed up wound healing and has showed to boost the effectiveness of topical sunscreens when applied before.  

Hippophae rhamnoides fruit extract* - Sea Buckthorn is bright orange in colour which gives this serum/oil a good indicator of where you have applied it. Forming a protective layer over the skin to stop water-loss, its omega-7 essential fatty acid helps to keep skin lifted and firmed whilst vitamin C provides antioxidant protection against free radical damage along with the vitamin E that is present. Omega fatty acids and flavonoids play an important role in collagen production and supporting the skin against photo-ageing, hyperpigmentaion, and wrinkles.

Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract* - Protecting the skin from free radicals that can damage (UV & Environment) thanks to its antioxidant benefits, it also helps to support collagen and boost elasticity for firmer looking skin. Natural antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties are also known to help relieve some skin conditions and this ingredient can also help to preserve other ingredients used in the formulation.

*Organically grown/produced (100% of product)

Presented in a glass bottle that presents the concentrate visually, the product can be easily dispensed by pressing the button on the dropper applicator. It is noted that dispensing the product on the back of your hand and then applying to the face/neck is easier because the superfruit concentrate appears to have a runny consistency. The bright colour of orange is present on application but do not be alarmed when applying 2-3 drops over the skin daily or when skin needs a boost because the colour disappears when the oil has been absorbed. I really like how the oil absorbs quickly and leaves skin feeling instantly hydrated all day without leaving the skin looking shiny and feeling greasy. The multitasking ways u can use this oil if you are looking for an extra boost for your skin is endless by applying to the skin first,followed by your moisturiser and sunscreen,or if you use water-based products such as serums/moisturisers to apply these first and then apply the concentrate before your chosen sunscreen to boost its effectiveness. The no-added fragrance is also a welcomed addition for skin types that cannot tolerate it and helps it be desirable to apply around the sensitive areas of the face such as the eyes and mouth, The skin appears hydrated and revitalised by the six ingredients that targets skin ageing, add it into your skin care routine for its multitasking benefits that are suitable for all skin types, x Neil.

Presented in a rectangle shaped bottle with a flip-top lid for easy dispensing there is 250 ml of product you receive. Applying to freshly washed damp hair, using a comb works great to ensure even coverage to all the hair strands for maximum benefits. You can leave the hair to air-dry or u can use your hair-dryer to create more volume this product creates when applied and helps to style the hair easier. I was impressed on how weightless this leaves the hair but depending on how much u use it might leave the hair a little sticky if you use too much. It does create a perfect base for the hair if you wish to use other products (think of it as a tonic for your hair) such as gels, mousses, hair sprays to hold your style but this does make the hair feel stronger, I also do apply to hair at night for an over-night hair treatment that does not leave any residue on the pillow, but hydrated and healthier looking hair will greet you in the morning. Add the Giovanni Direct Leave In Conditioner into your hair care routine for its infusing beneficial benefits to achieve happier hair days! x Neil.
