Dermalogica Invigorating Shave Gel

Dermalogica Invigorating Shave Gel

Dermalogica is a new brand to me, and I was intrigued by their heavy use of dermatological research. Interested to know more, I decided to reach out and try some samples. The Dermalogica Invigorating Shave Gel was my first introduction to Dermalogica, and it was a pretty good first impression. In the video below, you can...
The Two Taun Test: Anti-aging in Your Twenties

The Two Taun Test: Anti-aging in Your Twenties

So, long-time readers will remember a review we wrote almost a year ago on Taun, an anti-aging formula developed by Tom and Andrew (not me, a different Andrew), a couple of swell guys. Well, my Taun review a year ago focused mainly on Taun as a moisturizer and skin repairing formula because, pff, I’m in my mid-twenties,...
Verb Sculpting Clay

Verb Sculpting Clay

Recently, I stumbled across Verb, an Austin-based grooming company. Now, if you know anything about Austinites, it’s that we stick together. As a former Austinite who went to undergrad there, I just had to talk with them. They were cool enough to send over some of their Verb Sculpting Clay (among other stuff), and I was...
How to Load a Cut Throat Razor

How to Load a Cut Throat Razor

This article focuses on how to load a cut throat razor for guys who just received their cut throat razor but might not understand how all the parts work yet. Granted, this process looks a bit tricky, but once you understand it, you’ll see it’s easy as pie. The razor I’m using to demonstrate this...
Clear Men Scalp Therapy Shampoo

Clear Men Scalp Therapy Shampoo

When Unilever wanted to send me some of their new Clear Men Scalp Therapy shampoo, I was pretty skeptical. I tend to lump all those big guys into the same category of cheap shampoo that isn’t worth using, despite the low cost–like their other brand Suave. Shudder. However, this Clear Men shampoo is actually not that bad,...
Dreadnought Avenger Shaving Brush

Dreadnought Avenger Shaving Brush

Shaving brushes are an essential tool for any wet shaver. However, if you’ve ever looked around at the price of some of the options, you might be discouraged to start wet shaving because you don’t want to drop around $25, just under $50, or even $60 on a shaving brush. Yikes. However, there are some more affordable options out...
Brooks Brothers New York Cologne

Brooks Brothers New York Cologne

I’m not the type of guy who uses a ton of colognes, but I certainly find the value in having one type that I can call my “neutral” smell. This cologne from Brooks Brothers has remained my “neutral” for about a year and a half. The Brooks Brothers New York cologne is one that I...
Redken Rewind 06

Redken Rewind 06

Redken has been around for years, and people often speak very highly of the brand. However, my experience with the Redken Rewind was a total bust, despite many other people claiming they love it. Either I’m missing something, or I just don’t get it. The purpose of Redken Rewind (I think the “06” refers to the...
Hairbond Shaper

Hairbond Shaper

Remember a few weeks ago when we reviewed Hairbond’s Distorter? And then remember how it won our award for “Best Hair Styling Product?” Well, I also tried the Hairbond Shaper and this stuff is just as good, but probably better. The difference between the Hairbond Shaper and Distorter is the hold strength–the Shaper has a...
Electrogent Best of 2012

Electrogent Best of 2012

Well, 2012 is almost over, and we here at Electrogent had a pretty good year. Great companies continue to spoil us by sending us samples of their fantastic products, articles continue to gain popularity, and lots of fun things happen on the website. Therefore, it’s only appropriate to have a first annual Electrogent best of...
Hairbond Distorter

Hairbond Distorter

Hairbond is a brand new product to the United States, as they just launched their line from the United Kingdom in America. They were nice enough to send over some of their Hairbond Distorter, and I’m certainly glad they did. I’ve used a ridiculous array of hair products in the course of operating this website....
Bold for Men Dry Shave Gel

Bold for Men Dry Shave Gel

I’ll admit it: when Bold for Men contacted me about their product, Bold for Men Dry Shave Gel, I was inherently skeptical. When I hear the term “dry shave,” it doesn’t exactly get me too excited. So why, I asked myself, would a company brand itself as a “dry shave” gel? That’s sort of like...
