SPEICK


SPEICK

Skincare For Men

Review!

http://www.speick.de

When it comes to my husband, our skin types couldn't be any more different! My skin is pretty
tough. It can take pretty much any kind of product, natural, organic or not and I will never break
out, get a rash or itch or anything like that. He on the other hand has quite sensitive, dry and fair
skin. So I don't really blame him for being a bit fussy when it comes to his manly products and he
pretty much just sticks to what he knows and what works for him. Completely fair enough!

That's not to say I don't try to sway him here and there with other products I come across from time to
time like these German manly skincare products by Speick which has specifically perfect for if you
have dry and sensitive skin made with a range of natural ingredients including Speick plant extract!

Speick Men Active Shampoo
With ingredients like caffeine from guarana in it this product is sure to wake you up in the morning!
Not only that, these products also help to strengthen the hair naturally. Other ingredients also include
fair trade argon oil to give the hair shine. Other plant oils in this product moisturise a dry scalp which
prevents dead skin build up and irritation.

This 150ml tube like all Speick products are made in their home factory in Germany and contain no
synthetic fragrances, colours, silicons, parabens and mineral oil based ingredients.

This is available to purchase directly off the Speick website with international shipping available.

Speick Men Rasier Creme (Shaving Cream)
Interesting fact about the Speick plant used in these products. It is said to be both calming and
stimulating at the same time which I think is amazing and a great benefit at the same time. To be
able to relax the body whilst still keeping it alert and revitalised is just amazing to me!

In saying that this shaving cream also contains a soothing boost of lavender which we all know is
known to also be calming and relaxing to the body. This cream has a gorgeous natural scent to it and
appears as a white pearlescent texture which when applied to the skin and rubbed in forms a nice soft
creamy thick layer ready for shaving. I have used this myself on my underarms and legs and found it
to leave my skin beautifully smooth and somehow give a closer shave than usual. I love how I smell
afterwards! Think I may just keep this one on my half of the shower... ;)

Speick Men Active Intensiv Creme (Intensive Cream) 50ml
This intensive cream is a protective daily moisturiser for the face. With ingredients including the
obvious Speick plant as well as Aloe Vera gel, Shea Butter and natural Q10, this cream is also perfect
 to use after shaving to calm and soothe the skin.

The white cream is naturally scented and smells divine! Speick products are both dermatologically
and allergologically tested and completely vegan. The cream is non greasy and keeps your skin
hydrated and free from irritants all day long. No need to re-apply.

Speick products can also be found to purchase online in Australia at

VS SASSOON MEN


~    VS SASSOON    ~

i-TWIN TRIM

FOR MEN REVIEW !


So some of you may have already seen my videos and read my reviews on other VS Sassoon
products made for women. Now I am excited to be able to share with you folks one of their
top quality, highly effective tools just for those lovely men in our lives!

The VS Sassoon i-Twin Trim is perfect for a man like mine whose body is less than bare as a
siamese cat! With twin blades, complete with all of the added extras any man's body will ever
need, this baby is designed to be used on both the face and anywhere on the body as well!

Impressive! So let's get into the details! :)


This man groomer is easily stored in this sleek and handy storage stand which has a place for
everything the i-Twin Trim comes with including - 

The main Twin Blade System
The Rotary Blade (For Nose, Ears & Eyebrows!)
x7 Comb Guides (For Face, Beard, Stubble & Body!)
Lubricating Oil (There is a little slot in the back to store this so it doesn't get lost!)
Cleaning Brush (Also stores neatly in the back for easy reach when needed!)


To break it all down since looking at the image above might seem a bit overwhelming at first, but
trust me once you know what everything is and what it is used for, it couldn't be any simpler!

There is the obvious stand as mentioned before in the top left corner of the image above.
Next to that is your actual i-Twin Trim. Just in front of that is a little tube of lubricating oil.
In front of the oil is the nose, ear & eyebrow trimmer head attachment. To the left of that you will
see the cleaning brush which will quickly and easily whisk away any left over hairs in the blades after
use. Then at the front of the image above you'll see 6 similar looking attachments and one which
appears more square to the right. Let's start with the 3 at the very front. These are called J1, J2 & J3.

J1 - To be used for a 1mm hair trim
J2 - To be used for a 2mm hair trim
J3 - To be used for a 3mm hair trim

Above that are 3 attachments which are each labeled with S1, S2 & S3.

S1 - To be used for a close stubble look
S2 - To be used for a medium stubble look
S3 - To be used for a high stubble look

And finally your square shaped attachment can be used to acquire a 4mm, 6.5mm, 9mm, 11.5mm
or 14mm hair trimmings. 



Now onto the more detailed hair of grooming yet still just as important to keep under check.
The nose, ear and eyebrow hairs on men can sometimes seem to grow more rapidly than on a
woman. This is where this handy device steps into action!

This is surprisingly so easy to use! Once the trimmer is fully charged, unplug it and turn it on.
Insert the tool being careful not to get too enthusiastic by going in too far and just gently and
slowly rotating it around inside as it removes your un-wanted hairs. Pain free!


(Close up view of the VS Sassoon i-Twin Trim nose/ear/eyebrow attachment!)

The i-Twim Twin takes just one hour to fully charge which will last you a good sixty minutes of 
usage time cordlessly using Lithium-ion technology.


If you are unsure, have any questions or get confused anywhere along the way when using your
 i-Twin Trim, don't panic as it comes with an amazingly detailed 8 page instruction booklet,
including step-by-step guides and pictures to get you (or your man) looking trimmed and smooth
in no time! :)

The VS Sassoon i-Twin Twin is currently available for purchase from The Shaver Shop
for RRP:$139.95 and comes with a 2 year warranty!

VALENTINES DAY GIFTS FOR HIM



~ VALENTINE'S DAY ~

GIFT GUIDE

  FOR HIM!  
I am 99.9% sure the majority of my readers are female, so I figured it would make the most sense to
create a (hopefully) helpful gift guide for your man this Valentine's Day!

Here is a little run down on the items I have picked out below which I believe would make perfect
gifts! I will begin by stating the obvious. Men are more creatures of need rather than want unlike
us females, who want (ahem I mean neeeed) everything!

So on with the list!
(From left to right! Clickable product images at the end of this post!)

Claytan Secret Kisses Cup (Set of 6)
If the special guy in your life is anything like mine and loves his coffee, then he will surely
appreciate these manly looking mugs. I just love how they're so cleverly called 'Secret Kisses'
with the red hidden inside.
Heeello? Adorable! (I mean manly! They're totally MANLY!!)

Roselli Black Resin Canister Set
Chances are if you're not already living with your man or he lives alone he probably doesn't
have his toiletries neatly organized in the bathroom as us woman have down to a fine art.
I love the look of this classy black set. The pieces in the set can also be purchased individually.

  Holeproof Men's Socks
 I don't really think if matters what gender you happen to be. Socks always go missing!
We are forever wearing odd socks in our house and toes pocking through holes happen
daily! Picking up a pair of holeproof socks is a no brainer!

Jerry Garcia Scales Tie
If you man has confidence and often wears a tie, then this is perfect to get him into the
Valentine's Day spirit! He would look very stylish and this would look amazing paired
with either a plain black or white business shirt.

Saint Laurent Heart Print Shirt
If your budget has no limitations, then I highly recommend this super romantic, handsome shirt.
I could see my hubby in this! Perfect for Valentine's Day dinner or date night out.

Sant And Able Clives Eye Men's Sleep Shorts
Slik boxers went out about 10 years ago! Upgrate your men's sleepy time attire with this
sexy Aussie label. 100% Cotton, so they'd be comfortable to sleep in and excellent quality at
a bargain price!

Tommy Hilfiger Freedom Fragrance
I was fortunate to recieve this in my Blogstar award prize pack so passed it onto my very
lucky husband. He seems to like it and I love the brand and the scent too!

Tweezerman Essential Grooming Kit
Hands up if you're sick of your tweezers/nail scissors/nail file mysterious disappearing only
to find it in some random place later because your man has 'borrowed' it!
Yep, time to get him his own to do gross things with!

Baxter Of California Chrome Plated Safety Razor
Almost all men shave or groom their facial hair in some way so how about a nice razor?
Comes in a stylish black gift box with extra blades. 

Knomo Lincoln 13
Man bags are still cool right? At least I think they are! I love seeing men with 'man bags!'
I think it shows style, organization and class. This one is great as a laptop bag alternative too.

Diagonal Line Cuff Links
Every now and again my man will put some cuff links on for work. They just add that put 
together 'I make an effort' finishing touch. I think they make a man look more
desirable with a bit of an edge as well.

Euro Floral Trim Slim Fit Shirt
Team this shirt with some dressy denim jeans, for a more casual look for your night out on
Valentine's Day, I think this would suit any man!

Nike Solarsoft Li Thongs
Every Aussie needs a pair or two of thongs. It's Summer and it's HOT!
This stylish pair can be easily slipped on in a second! Fuss free shoes are a mans best friend.

Smythson Panama Cross-Grain Leather Notebook
Help to keep your man organized with in life and/or work with this gorgeous leather
notebook! Now he has no excuses not remembering important dates or events because
he can write it all down in here. ;)

Won Hundred Pocket T-Shirt
Nothing screams sexy, Aussie bloke to me more than a guy in a plain white tee!
Am I weird? There is just something about a man in white. It just looks clean and fresh
and well, inviting to put it honestly and bluntly! haha!

Baxter Of California Full Size 4 Piece Shower Set
Not many men I know love shopping let along shopping for beauty products!
They're an everyday essential, but it all seems just a bit too feminine to pop into
somewhere like Priceline where there is makeup at every turn! Why not save him
the nightmare and pick up some kind of gift set like this which has everything he needs
so he can spend more time doing the things he loves. (Like spending time with you!) ;)



What are your plans this Valentine's Day?

GIFT GUIDE


~ FATHER'S DAY ~

--------------------

Last Minute Gift Guide

Under $10 bucks!

Father's Day hasn't been a big part of my life for the most part.
My dad wasn't really in the picture so it wasn't really something that I celebrated.
However, now that I'm a parent with a loving husband who just happens to be a pretty
awesome dad as well, it is a very special time of the year for me and I love to celebrate it!

Times are tough though and like myself, I know how difficult it can be to spoil the ones
we love. So with that in mind I've put together a bunch of pretty awesome, yet highly
affordable man products that just about everyone should be able to afford weather it's 
for either you dad, granddad, brother, husband, son or any other special man in your life!

Happy Shopping!


What's are your plans this Father's day?
Whatever your plans, I hope it's a beautiful day spent spoiling and 
appreciating the men we love in our lives.
(For just ONE day...don't let them get too used to it! haha!)
