Here is how you can surprise your dad. All you girls will agree that you are spoilt the most by your dads. But, how many times do you spoil him back? Not many, right?  You always presume that they do not like receiving gifts because they call you the best gift of their lives. Well, it is true. You aren't called princesses for no reason. But, this Father's Day is the perfect occasion to surprise your kings by going all out. A father-daughter bond is like the purest form of an elixir that is special, rare and deserves a celebration. Finding the right gift to celebrate your dad and everything he does for you can be tricky, and we're here to help.

You are a great “SISTER”. We’ll help you be an ultimate “GIFTER”. The festival that celebrates siblings and their profound love is knocking on the doors. Despite the unending fights and arguments, the affection between brothers and sisters never changes. The countless brawlings and then uniting is in itself a delightful celebration. There was a time when only your brothers used to give gifts on Rakshabandha, but times are changing, and so are trends. Nowadays, you get more excited to present gifts and be the best gifters (It does not change the fact that you deserve a much better thing in return). Conveying your love through gifts can be tricky, and we wanted to help you a little. So, here are a few Gift Boxes from The Man Company for you to be the best gifter.  

This year, and every year, all he wants is “A Sister Who’s A Gifter”. Sibling rivalry is always in the vicinity and will be there forever, but you can’t deny the benefits of having a sister. Saving you from troubles, hiding your report cards, and then scolding you for the same, she does it all. She is your partner in crime and will always be one. She might always be wondering if she is your keeper. Having a sister comes with its perks, one being loyalty overloaded. Tell her your secrets, and she will never let them slip. From time to time, she keeps educating you about life and never forgets to take pride in everything you know. But, if you don’t do things according to her, she turns into the most infuriating person.                                               Raksha Bandhan is around the corner, and we are sure you must have planned something special for your sister. But this Rakhi, don’t forget to ask for The Man Company’s Exclusive Gift Boxes from her. She is a born gifter, be it advice, knowledge or literal gifts. Here are some ways she has been gifting her love and affection to you:

Hygiene is a MUST, and there are no two ways about it. But are you doing it right or taking care of it all? Often intimate hygiene is overlooked, while other parts get extra attention. And just because it is below the belt doesn’t mean you can let it hang in there and do nothing about it. Grooming down there is a hush-hush topic, and not everybody feels comfortable discussing it. But WE WILL! One gentleman to another. Keeping your privates clean and groomed keeps itchiness and infections at bay, adds to your overall health, and boosts your sexual confidence. And we are here to help you achieve it.

With the onset of monsoons, people start to feel a range of emotions, and so do their skin and hair. Rains may be about rainbows and the smell of wet mud, but they are also about humidity and gloomy skies. True, they bring relief from the scorching heat, but they come bearing gifts of sticky skin and greasy hair. And who wants that? Choosing the right products that suit your skin and hair becomes of utmost importance. Sort your monsoon regime with The Man Company, and this tale of woe won’t continue. We are here with a few suggestions, so pour your heart into self-care and get ready to enjoy this beautiful weather.

To start with, do you know what gender is?  Is it similar to your sex, or is it different?  Have you ever wondered about this? If not, think now! 

Read to unravel the “father” of all gifts. All you guys out there will agree that dad-son relationships are slightly complex. There is love, unsaid and unexpressed love. But, this Father's Day is your chance to go all out and show your dad that he means the world to you. Ever since you were a kid, you must have aspired to be like your dad, the hero of someone's life, the saviour who knows how to make things right, and the one who always shows up no matter what. Now is your moment to show him how much you cherish him, even if you don't often say it. Finding the best Father’s Day gift can be tricky, especially if you are a son, and we are here to help you with that. Here are our personal favourites just for you to make his day memorable:

A warm hug for all dads to make them feel special. All fathers are heroes to their sons and daughters. Fathers may have had their share of struggles, but to their best ability, they never let it reach you. From a cricket bat to a football to that dress you really liked to videogames to bikes, sooner or later, he gave it to you. Of course, you had the best advocates by your side – mothers – who made sure that you got your perfect gift. Now, think about this – how often do you express your love for him? Can’t remember? Don’t worry, you are not alone. So, come Father’s Day may we ask you to #GiftYourDadAHug. Because at times, a hug is the simplest gesture that could turn dads into friends, instantly. Once your dad becomes a friend, we don’t need to tell you how beautiful and easy life gets. Today, let’s think how many kinds of these kind souls are actually there? Strict-On-The-Surface Dads This kind is the most typical one. Simplest things like coming in front of the TV while he’s watching the news or coming home late (yes, even an hour late) could become a catalyst to you getting a big time-out. But but but, there’s also a softer and extremely adorable side to this kind. Just express your love for him, and see the magic. Sporty Dads They are fitness enthusiasts and will tell you to stay fit. They get up early, often at the hour when you call it a night, and you can see them following a fitness regime. They like to keep themselves groomed and when it comes to perfect looks, not just you, but even your friends look up to them.                                           The Problem Solver Dads Have a problem? Just tell him. His creative mind will instantly give you five-six solutions. Or if the problem requires a ‘jugaad’, he will pick up his phone, make a few calls, and voila! Problem solved. The Age-Old Entrepreneur Dads Much before startups were a thing, this kind came up with a unique idea and made it big. Sit with them, and they will give you business ideas that could make the next-gen entrepreneurs a run for their money. The ‘Ask Your Mother’ Dads This kind wants you to have all the fun with friends and they want to give you ‘permission’ for everything legitimate you want, but their strict-dad image often jumps on the driving seat. So, they often conclude their decision by saying ‘mummy se pooch lo’ (‘ask your mother’). The list could on and on, but one thing will remain a constant in each – they are all super gentle and adorable once you express your love for them. Like in our latest ad film Ayushmann Khurrana shows a glimpse of his love, and as a return gift, gets the most delicious dinner cooked by dad (played by Piyush Mishra). Oh, how can we forget this category – The Masterchef Dads. Watch the dichotomic relationship between a son and a father, and how easily they build a beautiful bond, with just a heartwarming gesture. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylA4AonQtEo So, this Father’s Day #GiftYourDadAHug and see him meltdown with warmth and affection.

Radiations from the Sun affect your skin in more ways than you know. And to tackle these adverse effects, applying sunscreen is a must. People often ignore this step while staying indoors, thinking that the UV rays will not harm them. It is not TRUE!! If you are also someone who feels that you can win this game of hiding from harmful UV radiations by sitting indoors without applying sunscreen, you are wrong.

If you think balding makes someone less of a gentleman, #WeNeedToTalk.   Is the amount of hair on your head an appropriate parameter to decide how manly you are? No! Does it decide whether or not you'll have a bright future? Of course not!   If it does, then all baldies out there have the brightest futures. Despite this little TED talk, we certainly know that balding affects men in more ways than one can imagine. And we are here to break those shackles for the modern-age gentlemen. By the end of this blog, you’ll agree to agree that balding is a statement, and it sure is a bold one.   What Is Balding? In simple terms, balding means the loss of hair. It can occur on any part of the body but majorly concerns the head. It can result in complete baldness, receding hairline or hair thinning. The process of balding is more prevalent in men as compared to women.   What Causes Balding? Balding can happen because of multiple reasons. Here are a few of them explained for you: Stress Today’s time is such that lifestyles have become busier and stressful. When the level of stress is more, for some, this can mean lesser hair on the head. Well, that’s just a complicated relationship between stress and hair.  In order to keep your hair in sway it is extremely important to keep your worries at bay. Genetics Another common cause of balding is family history or genetics. For most people, genetically-induced hair loss happens as they age. It is difficult to reverse the balding gene, but there sure are ways to slow it down. Lack Of Vitamins Severe deficiencies of Iron, Vitamin B12, Vitamin D and Bition can potentially cause hair loss. To ensure that your hair game stays strong, one must intake a healthy and balanced diet.   We sure wear our hair like a crown on the head, and if it was to fall off, it sure comes with adverse effects. The first and foremost of all are lower self-esteem and declining confidence. With hair loss comes a lot of name-calling and underestimation. And it does not just stop here. We constantly run after the unrealistic and stereotypical representation of an ideal man who can brush his fingers through luscious-looking hair that sway in the wind. But the world of the new-age gentlemen isn't as easy as it seems to be, and we are going to help you break through all the stigmas and stereotypes that come with it.     At The Man Company, we believe that men's issues are less spoken about or sometimes left unsaid. So we have taken it upon ourselves to start having conversations that not everyone feels comfortable talking about because #WeNeedToTalk. And we will. Because as much as we love to groom gentlemen on an everyday basis, we also love to ensure that their voice reaches places.   To address these issues, including balding and others, we've come up with a podcast named The Gentleman Show that talks about everything from personal grooming, health and fitness, career and finance to relationships, fashion and lifestyle. The first episode of the podcast “Bindaas. Bold. Bald”. talks about bald being a statement. Relish an inspiring yet fun conversation between host Ankush Bahuguna and guest Devansh Kamboj as they talk about the difficulties associated with balding and how one can overcome them.     Hair or not, you will never be less of a gentleman. And if you think otherwise, #WeNeedToTalk.   You can listen to the audio podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Gaana, JioSaavn and all leading audio-streaming platforms. https://www.themancompany.com/pages/the-gentleman-show   To watch the full video podcast check out The Man Company’s YouTube Channel.

Remove unwanted hair painlessly   Do you think there are trends linked with body hair?    Well, we surely do. The 1970s were when people were crazy about body hair, and now it depends on one's liking. You can shave them, wax them or let them grow mad.   But today, we are going to talk about hair removal.   Yes, we know it may not be the most glamorous topic, but let's face it, sometimes it's necessary to get rid of that unwanted hair.    Now, there are plenty of methods out there for removing hair, but today, we're going to focus on the one that's been making waves recently: Hair Removal Spray.      

Summer’s here!  When we hear of this season, all we can think of is fresh faces and sun-kissed looks. But what do we really get? Sun damage, tanning, dark spots, excess oil and drenching in sweat, a lot of sweat.  These are all the reasons why we need to have a proper regime put in place to keep the summer bummer away. And, The Man Company has got you covered with a range of premium products to help you beat the heat. 

The Man Company’s Hair Removal Cream to the rescue.  We understand that a gentleman also needs to flaunt a clean and hair-free body, which is why we decided to lend you a Clean Sweep. One of the best things about our dermatologically tested Hair Removal Cream is that it helps painlessly remove unwanted hair from your body with the power of Charcoal & Turmeric in just 4-5 minutes. 

Skincare & haircare tips for the #GentlemanInYou As much as we love the festival of colours, Holi, what worries us the most is the hassle of post-celebration skincare and haircare. Taking off all that colour can be tricky, and we’ve got you covered with the best tips to follow. Let’s get started to help you get your skin and hair back on track. Post Holi Skincare Tips 1. Use A Mild Facewash Before you wash your face with a facewash or cleanser, dust off all the dry colours. If the facewash does not remove the colour, try using an exfoliator, but do not forget to be gentle. A gentle facewash and exfoliator will bring your skin back to life, making you feel squeaky clean. Check out our range of facewashes.  2. Moisturise Your Skin Well We cannot stress enough how important it is to moisturise your skin after playing with all the colours. Your skin will feel thoroughly dry and coarse after all the playing and fun, and to make it soft and supple, you need to use a moisturiser that suits your skin type. Make sure you pick something that is lightweight and feels non-greasy on the skin. Check out our range of moisturisers. 3. Indulge In A Sheet Mask To breathe all the life back into your skin, you need to pamper it right, and nothing does it like a sheet mask. The serum from the sheet mask will help your skin heal from all the colour drama and bring back all the radiance. Most importantly, after all the play, you and your skin both need a sit back and relax. Check out our range of sheet masks.  Post Holi Haircare Tips 1. Pick A Mild Shampoo Shampoos that are free of harmful chemicals like sulphates and toxins are ideal for post Holi haircare. They will not only help cleanse your hair but will ensure that they gently treat your scalp. Try double cleansing your hair to ensure that the colour comes off completely. Check out our range of shampoos.  2. Do Not Forget To Condition With everything that you put your hair through this Holi, it is important to give it the right haircare. To avoid your hair from drying and feeling coarse it is important that you condition them well after shampooing. Make sure you apply a good amount of conditioner on the lengths of your hair to make it soft and shiny. Check out our range of conditioners. 3. Use A Nourishing Hair Oil Just like your skin, your hair can use some nourishment too. Applying a nourishing hair oil will not only rejuvenate your hair but will also intensely moisturise your scalp. Well, that is not all, it will make your hair smooth and healthy. Check out our range of hair oils.  We hope your post Holi grooming stays on point and the #GentlemanInYou feels just as good as you felt while playing with all the colours.

Beard styles for Oval Face An oval-shaped face looks brilliant. The best part is that there are innumerable styles that suit the oval face shape. We will tell you about the origin of the beard style, few celebrities who flaunt the beard style, how to create the style so that it looks groomed and well-kept, and the best products to take care of the chosen beard style. Thirty Beard Styles for Oval Face  An oval face is characterised by a chin that is in perfect symmetry with the forehead. The jaws are narrower compared to the cheekbones, and the chin is rounded while the face is vertically longer than the breadth of the cheekbones. The forehead is larger, too, in comparison with the jawline. Chin Strap The beard hardly exists except the hair on the jawline's edge and sparsely on the chin along the hairline from one side of the face to the other side. Thought to have originated in the 18th century in Europe, it became quite popular through the 19th century, spreading to Japan.  Michael Ebenezer Kwadjo or Stormzy Sir Lewis Carl Davidson Hamilton Dwayne Wade Shave the entire face to remove hair from all places except the jaw's edge and the chin. The hair left behind needs to be trimmed to give a polished look.  The Man Company Beard Combo (Almond & Thyme) containing the Beard Oil and Beard Wash is made from 100% natural oils.   The Charismatic Full Goatee  This beard style for the oval face is characterised by the chin's hair and none on the cheeks. It is a flexible style, so you can vary it a bit as per your preference.  The word 'goatee' comes from the goat's tuff of chin hair. It is accepted to have its origin in the ancient civilisation of Rome and Greece. Interestingly, during medieval times, the goatee was synonymous with Satan.  The Rock or Dwayne Douglas Johnson Robert Pattinson  George Clooney Clear your face of all facial hair except the chin. Let the hair grow. Start trimming once the hair grows.  Groom it regularly.

How to choose the right perfume on the basis of notes?  The ancient art of perfumery has devised a buffet of surprises for the benefit of our spirits.  Blessing our olfactory senses, perfumers across the world with their artistic alchemy have devised magnificent vials of perfection. From leathery, masculine notes of Oud to the lasting grace of Ittars, many of them have taken space in our lives as our forever favourites. And yet, when a gentleman goes looking for an ideal scent to honour his charisma, there’s confusion.   May we tell you a secret? Any perfume you pick will not smell the same through the day as it does when you first applied it. By extension this means that the first impression of your perfume when you’re buying it is not a very reliable source to judge its effect on you. Perhaps, that’s the reason why the perfumes that you once bought excitedly, get passed on for not satisfying you later on. Perfumes by their virtue carry layers of essence that diffuse and dissipate since their first application. And with the advent of the current times, one can’t even experience their prospect scent without testing it.  Worried you might not be able to pick your best perfumes? We’ve got you.  The easiest way to understand how a perfume is going to smell on you is to judge it by its notes. Experienced perfumers mention the notes they use in their artistic formulations for your ease. But that’s not it. The effects of these notes vary in time and intensity. And we are here to broaden your understanding so you can choose your ideal scents without fail. What are perfume notes? In perfumery, notes describe the scents that greet you at the changing evaporation stages since the perfume was first applied. A perfume is carefully crafted considering the evaporation value of each note. They are of three types: Top/Head notes:  With their light molecular structure, top notes grant the first impression of the scent that's going to stay with you. It is usually fresh, assertive, sharp and volatile. It comes to announce its sharp mark with scents like Bergamot and Eucalyptus and is the first one to evaporate. Just before the head notes begin evaporating, the more harmonious and subtle middle notes start emerging. Middle/Heart notes:  As the name suggests, these notes form the heart and spirit of your, well… spirit. These have a mellow and rounded scent replacing the sharp initial effect of the top notes with a more subtle and lasting touch. The heart of your perfume usually lasts for anywhere between 20 minutes to one hour. They are usually honoured with creamy, flowery, and earthy notes of Lavender, Honey Accord, and Orange Blossoms. Heart notes along with the middle notes are the main theme of your perfume. They build the structure of the mark that is going to last for you. Base notes:  Usually musky or woody, base notes are the rich and deep essence of the perfume. With the heaviest molecules, they offer profound depth and solidity and are usually honoured with animalic notes. The base notes last the longest with subtle effects staying on for as long as 24 hours in plenty. It is important to note that the base notes will always influence top and middle notes during the initial evaporation time, meaning that even as the top notes of, say, spicy Bergamot exude about you upon the first application, they’ll continue to have a touch of the perfume’s musky base. Conversely, the base notes live their hours with some influence of the middle notes, which means that the lasting base notes will continue to have the subtle and creamy effect of the middle note. How does one choose their perfume on basis of its notes? The choice of ingredients that favours your style matched with the evaporation time of each note is a good formula to help you pick your perfume. When you know your favourite ingredients and you know the length of time that they will be wafting about you, you have your perfect pick! How’s that for an Atmanirbhar perfume purchase?

It has really changed and re-established the meaning of life. It has made us question so many things, brought us to our knees; made us wail with overwhelm on some days and accept challenges to perform our optimum best on many others.  2020, this challenging concept, the institution of constant confusion, the paradox of the meaning of life; this year bygone, has made us question our own limits and reestablish them. It has made us achieve new things and accept challenges with a furious fervor.  To our team, personally, It has humbled us with a lot of gratitude towards love, life, faith and work. And as we bid a gentle and tribunal farewell to our demi year, we want to share with our dear gentlemen, our masses and believers with all the things that make us feel grateful for having been challenged this year We count our blessings for:

Do you remember the rolling hills and the cascading roads leading up to them? Do you reminisce over that breath of fresh air; breeze playing on your face, laughing through your hair? Do you remember those snow peaked mountains feeding wild rivers; and sitting by them, sipping on a cup of roadside chai. Are you visited by the long lost promises of pristine beaches, their untouched shores, and lying under their starry night alone or with a hundred more? Do you remember those wild nights of concerting with a million others or listing down some new places to find? Do you just miss taking that random flight; those off beaten paths, trails untouched, uncared for and the freedom with which you could grab the weekend and pack your bags to claim a new tour? Traveling was never missed as much. The bucket lists weren’t as daunting. The dreams of a new forest; a new trail; befriending new people was rarely a scary idea. But the world, as we know it, got challenged big time this year. And life, as we know it, began feeling monotonous. Many backpacking, touring, I-carry-my-home-in-a-bag kind of yous and mes were losing our hopes. Weren’t we?  But the good news is ours to smile about. Those winding roads leading to the hinterlands of our liking are open again, and they are calling out to us. I’m sure most of you are already getting updated on the improving state of affairs in terms of traveling. You can scroll through your news feeds and find rays of hope in the form of photos of picturesque sceneries, fresh landscapes, and soiled adventure gear. I bet this makes you want to drive off… This World Tourism Day, we make a slight suggestion though. Travel. Travel all that you want. Visit all your dreamlands. Let your feet touch changing terrains. Let your bags be soiled by dust of a hundred places. Breathe new musings. And let your backpacks come back with scents, treasures, and experiences of all the places you visit. But, do it all with utmost safety.  While you travel to find yourself, actualize your beliefs or just take some timeout to pitch a tent, pin a hammock and look at the sky from a new angle, consider the new normal. Adapt to it; tread through these new waters by making sure that you are taking stern precautions not only for your own safety but for the safety of the places you’re visiting. Because a little extra caution wouldn’t take away the fun but it will make sure that you can enjoy your freedom longer and at the same time protect the place you’re visiting.  So, travel with the following things kept in consideration: Follow all the expert prescribed safety measures.  Wherever you are, maintain distance with the others.  While it is anyway a traveling must, do not share personals.  Make sure that your lodgings are regularly fumigated.  Take cleansing showers that leave you protected and nourished using TMC De-Tan Body Wash. Because if you’re cleaner, you’re strong enough to tick all those places off your bucket lists and claim your freedom wherever you are.

Help your lips dare the winter by avoiding these habits Our lips are one of the most sensitive areas of our body with the skin there so soft and tender that a minor abrasion can leave lasting impact on this beautiful feature of the human body. They already do so much for use from talking to kissing to eating, etc. They also pace up with some of our habits and they do that without snarling any complaints at their owners.  Lips not well taken care of can really hamper that kind smile of yours. Chapped lips are not a good news for those of you who love to talk and eat and kiss with this very beautiful feature of yours. Add to that the drying weather of winter that is blowing through us in these last months of the year. And this can leave your lips really vulnerable and prone to worsening their dryness and damage. But what can we do to protect our lips. Well, anyone could recommend a nice lip balm to help you see what you should do for your lips. But us, dear sir, we want to gather around you and tell you everything that you shouldn’t do to your lips. Things that grandma also believed in. Here they are:

Winters are here. How well are you grooming? Winters are back in full force.  Do you know what that means? The winter is going to come creeping like shadows and ruin your grooming game.  Of course, it happened the year before, the one before that, and for all the generations that have ever lived. The dry weather is no friend of yours and, as your trusted brand we want to help you tread through it with a well groomed persona. We have thought through the winters and compiled this easy take on it: a complete head-to-toe winter care regime to keep you glowing and shining through the dry weather. Here’s how to achieve a thorough grooming record this winter:

The month has long lived to see your beards grow long.  You have outdone your beards next door and are now sporting what is the most satisfying type of lush. And you’ve spent all this time caring for, grooming and meditating upon the final look you have for a highly noble cause. You’ve spent the past one month celebrating Movember, most commonly known as No Shave November and have let your facial fuzz be growing for a cause. We are proud of you wise gentlemen for observing the value of men’s health and celebrating the month that signifies its very ideals.  You’ve grown your beards along with millions of men supporting the unifying cause of men’s health, especially in the area of prostate cancer. We send you hearty congratulations on finding the epitome of masculinity and wisdom that you’ve grown. And as the month edges to its comfortable end, we suggest a closure to this ritual. Do you miss the clean shaven look that could make your morning water splashes tenfold fresher? Do you miss the soft skin of a freshly shaved face? Well, it is yours to have easily, of course. The long promise of a beard that you stood by was a ritual of its own: growing, nourishing, keep away from the blade and conditioning your beard, which we’re certain, you did using appropriate washes and wash temperatures for them; always, always making sure that you had the healthiest beard to stand by the global cause that celebrates it. Now it is time to give a hearty closure to this ritual.  Give yourself a pat on the back and get ready to find that clean shaven face underneath all that growth. Check out our shaving range with a wide range of shaving essentials including  Post Shave Lotion, Shaving Cream, Shaving Brush and After Shave Spray. For those of you, who’d like to extend the Movember at their own convenience, check out our beard grooming range with its Beard oil and Washes and beard wax that will do your beard the best it deserves. So, what’s it going to be? Beard or clean shave.

This International Men’s Day, help the men in your life open up.  Help yourself open up. These are trying times not just for one but the collective. And more so for men as their identities come saturated with much emphasized neglect, especially towards their mental health. For ages, men have been associated with being the superior one: the one to earn, provide for, and protect. This has granted our dear gentlemen with no real support and nurturing, especially by their partners. Add to that a constantly anxious society that demands performance, financial security and societal stimulation. And that, not just for the man himself but all those dependent on him, thus making the weight they are shouldering become ten-folds. And we don’t talk about things like that. We live and love by this ‘don’t talk, don’t feel’ rule in our society, more so towards men. How can it then be a surprise that 70% of the suicide cases for the past many years have been of men?  “More men than women are committing suicides in many countries,” reported The Wire. Rory O’ Connor of the University of Glasgow believes that the one factor that contributes the most to the gender bias with which we deal with men’s health, emotional, physical or mental is social perfectionism. Men feel that they’ve to provide or else they’ve failed. This is a factor that is as common in developing countries as it is in the developing ones. Could this constant pressure and more subjective ones be the reason why men also have more heart diseases?  The debate may go on, but what is the most crucial is to identify the need in the men in our lives to be supported and most importantly, heard. We can start with something as simple as paying attention to their body language, dropping a few kind words in their days, or just listen. Our International Men’s Day campaign stands by gentlemen as manifestations of many virtues and realties, innate and surface, and we believe in talking about them. We believe in lending an ear to all that is unsettled and that is what we ask of you. In these times of need, be gentle to the gentlemen in your lives. Avoid judgments and perhaps just listen. Our men near and far could truly use that.  

This Movember, grow for a cause. November brings along a promise of boastful beards that you gentlemen have been slowly securing. Beards that have lived the whole year around to live their significance are getting ready to be flaunted and made monochromatic memories of.  While the last decade has brought the trend of keeping a well groomed beard in the forefront, the month of November makes a strong nudge in that direction.  But how does growing a beardstache become so important? No Shave November has been a celebrated tradition for many years when gentlemen like yourself decide against shaving. The decision to grow an imperial is to stand by a cause that was born in the year 2009 when members of the Chicagoland Hill family decided to quit shaving for a month. They decided to instead donate the money that they otherwise spent in salons or on shaving products to cancer research programs. This was after they lost the family patriarch to colon cancer. Many joined in this cause and have raised millions of dollars benefitting organizations that work towards the cause of cancer patients across globe.  The campaign’s title is synonymous with its modern name Movember, which was born out of a little beer date between some friends in 2003. They were reminiscing on the good ol’ moustache days and decided that they’d try to bring back the trend of the Mo, diminutive for moustache.  They were inspired by a friend’s mother who was fundraising for breast cancer and its awareness and decided to make the campaign about men’s health, especially with respect to prostate cancer. It just started with an email, and 30 willing men stepped up.  And what started with just these 30 men became a worldwide trend with official campaigns in more than 21 countries raising fund towards 1000 men’s health programs.  And that is how, my dear friends, Movember, more commonly known as No Shave November came into celebration for being the noble cause it is. This year, when a life threatening calamity has laid siege to the world, the question of men’s health, a subject only occasionally discussed, becomes even more important. It doesn’t matter what cause you stand for and what your stance remains on this celebrated mindfulness around men’s health, growing a healthy lush can only add to your personality and mystery. And while you’re at that consideration, why not try to sail your beard through the thought through care regime from our Beard Collection. Try from our wide range of beard products like beard wash, beard wax, beard oil, etc. to get a healthy looking, voluminous beard that affirms your cause.   

How to make gifting interesting this new-normal Bhai Dooj. Soon, it is the auspicious day when we celebrate a beautiful bond of mischief and love.  Bhai Dooj is reminiscent of love for our siblings, sibling-in-laws and cousins. They, who have been our partners in crime, our shadows, our personal pep talkers find them celebrated and cherished on this festive occasion. It has always edged around some teasing, familial gatherings, and, as we grew older, reminiscing over the carefree childhood days when grandmother’s terrace was a weekend getaway and pillow castles were our forts.   This year, as we edge towards the day of this festival, a hint of unease is obvious. Many are spending time away from their families and the same is the case with our brothers and bros. This year hasn’t been a very happening one. It has made us question the value of life and relationships. And that is the reason why it is even more important to celebrate the new normal with caution. So, this Bhai Dooj we advise you to celebrate with even more vigor and enthusiasm. We say, indulge in more care and love for each other and express it. Let your loved ones know how well you mean and deep you care. Make your loved ones: your brothers and brother-in-laws, your best friends and bros feel the love that they very much need. And you don’t even need to meet to make it special! Just take them on a virtual coffee date and talk memories, mischief and merriment. Send them our Caffeine care kit and spend this Bhai Dooj with them as they take care of themselves.  Trust me they’ll be glad you sent them a boxful of the caffeine’s refreshing care when they unbox the Ayushmann Khurrana Caffeine Series which homes:

Use the benefits of coffee for your skin. Coffee has been a splash of freshness for many of us. The much needed, fill-my-mug to the brim need of our stretched hours.

It has been a part of our late night conversations, tip-toeing around deep existentialism, and the comfortable cup of belongingness alongside good friends. Considering its unmatched value, we invested ourselves in brewing a new version of Coffee that can become your partner in skincare. The beans have sizzled and the brew has concocted to present you with this expert curated freshness. Hold your breaths as we let out the first whiff of the brown love: Ultimate Caffeine Kit! Enriched with the vitalizing boost of Coffee Arabica and blended with a range of expertly picked natural ingredients, this caffeine series is put together to the taste of your evolved palette.

It’s the time of the year when you make huge lists, scribbling names of your favorite people, shopping their favorites and gifting them with a dash of love.  Sure, this year the festivities come with a twist: a not so comfortable, ‘need to wear my mask’ all the time kind of twist. But that doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the fun hour choosing and arranging gifts for the people you so love.  What’s better, you don’t need to resort to the same pack of chocolates and sweets that you’ve always gifted. Here’s a chance to up your gifting game by picking the right one for the brother-in-law with the lush beard, for the fan of fragrances uncle, or for the self-loving yourself. Take advantage of the new Festive normal and celebrate customized gifting for the best people in your life, that too at your convenience:

But this year we are advised to maintain social distancing and be extra careful while planning the festivities. In this new normal, rocking a festive avatar to keep up with your gentlemanly taste is no easy business. Therefore, to make it easy for you, we have compiled a list of areas that might help you put your best taste forward.

How to give yourself the right winter regime? Last week, we reminded you of the beginning of the dry season and how to take care of your skin through it.  In the winter and pre-winter months, the body not only bears the brunt of dry Himalayan winds, but also the pollutants trapped in the atmosphere that our body has to fight against. A week since our last call to protection against the weather and the dryness of the upcoming winters is already evident. Check your hair, your beard. Are they drying up? Do they look brittle? How about your feet and hands? Well, whatever your concerns are, spare no worries, for we have arranged a list of advices on how to take care of your winter grooming needs.

The onset of Pre-winter, autumnal season is quite evident when we start getting chills during our morning showers. We can tell that the days are getting shorter, nights longer; that the trees have begun shedding their autumnal yellows and browns. And soon, the winter air will start showing its drying effects on our skin and hair, calling out for more attention.  While it still seems fair to negotiate between a cold shower and warm, there are a few pressing areas that will start asking for a change during this pre-winter period.

Have you been sweating too much? Have you grown to hate summers, looking for a house in the mountains that doesn’t see the sun? Is that light colored shirt your friend gifted a distant dream to you? Don’t worry we’ve got you.  Excess sweating or Hyperhidrosis is a condition that makes a human body sweat more than it is normal. One could find themselves perspiring without any workout or when it wasn’t particularly hot. One could be sitting still in an air conditioned room and still be soaking wet.  While some might assume that you are always working at your body, sweating it out; too much sweat can be embarrassing. It can affect your self-esteem and make you restricted to dark, gothic colors to style with. Not just that, it can make your sensitive area vulnerable to fungal problems. We hear you, are here for you. And we’ve compiled a list of lifestyle habits that can help you NOT sweat it as bad.
