5 grooming products every guy should own, according to the cofounder of a major skincare brand

Face scrub

Face scrub

Not for every day, but great to scrub away the dirt and dead skin cells a couple of times a week.

However, Duffy is quick to add that you shouldn't just buy any face scrub. "I would really like to encourage readers to go for naturally formulated face scrubs," Duffy says, "and that's because you're dodging microbeads, which are going to be banned soon."

Microbeads are tiny pieces of plastic that don't dissolve in water and can be highly damaging to the environment when discharged into the world's waterways. Microbeads were banned in the UK at the start of 2018.

Lip balm

It's easy to forget your lips in your skincare routine but nobody wants chapped lips — "harder to kiss, too," Duffy adds.

A high-quality razor

However often you shave, men should always invest in a high-quality razor, Duffy says. "Nobody should be shaving with a cheap BIC or something like that."

It's also really important to change your blades regularly as failure to do so will result in blunt blades and an uncomfortable, hair-wrenching shave.

If you have a beard, Duffy advises finding a blade with a precision trimmer, "so you can get really neat lines."

He adds: "[Precision trimmers] will actually really help make something that might look quite scruffy look quite smart and you can accentuate the natural features of your face to the advantage of your look."
