It’s all about making your products work harder - and more efficiently - for you! All steps in my article here 👉🏼 manforhimself.com/grooming/shaving/the-correct-order-for-your-mens-morning-routine/
Do you know what the BASICS would be for a morning routine if you are on a budget? (Eg- Shampoo, conditioner, hair styling product. ). Live your videos. Much love from south London
Braun is a great brand, while the series 7 looks really enticing, my trusty series 3 has been serving me so well for the past 4 years. Alos glad to see that you're not dumping a shitton of shampoo on your head anymore.
Great video! In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack then lay down for 15 minutes. After I remove the ice pack, I use a deep pore cleanser lotion(Mondays and Thursdays only). In the shower, I use the Tiége Hanley face wash. Followed by Tiége Hanley exfoliating scrub(also Mondays and Thursdays only). Then the Tiége Hanley body soap on my body (Obviously) . Once out the shower, on days that I shave, I slather a moisturizer, to my taste Mary Kay (yes I’m a Texan) and take a dime size amount of Truefitt & Hill shaving cream to a Homer Laughlin China bowl. I wet my badger hair shaving brush with warm water and lather up the cream in the bowl for 45 seconds to a minute, and apply the cream. I take a double edged safety razor, with Parker Platinum blades. Always wet the razor with warm water before shaving and shave in the direction the beard grows, pressing gently on the skin. Leave the sideburns and chin for last, since these whiskers are tougher and need more time to soften. Rinse the razor and shake off any excess water before starting. I pass once going with the grain, then across the grain, and the final pass is against the grain. Afterwards splash cool water on the face to remove any trace of lather. I apply a cucumber peel-off mask, which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine (also Mondays and Thursdays). I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then an anti-aging eye cream followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion, both by Tiége Hanley.
Excellent video. I always learn a lot from your videos and as a straight guy these are things I dare not ask another guy. I think it’s very important to look after yourself and to look the best you can and you always demonstrate the importance for this 😊 Thank You 🙏
Hey Robin, big fan. I just purchased the Free.Hold paste because of your video, & was wondering if you’d have a look at and review the Young.Again oil also from Kevin Murphy?
Great video!! Im really into fragrances and dont know so much about hair or skin products so this video is great. Didnt know sun protection was that important! I use it only a few times per year, do you suggest to wear sun protection in every season? Thank you for your content!
Oh yeah just before I forget, could you please do a review on SevenPotions Hairstyling Clay. It has 400 reviews on Amazon with 4.5 Stars. Looking forward to that one!
Robin not sure if you’ve seen it but there is a brand called formulate and they custom do a shampoo and conditioner you should look into it and give us your thoughts. I know I saw your nioxin video after I was looking into the brand and found that video extremely useful thanks again for all your advice and suggestions you give all of us and the videos you make.
Ur videos are so entertaining and I love em so much. They're also informative as I never knew that hair cream existed and is much better. Plus the sea salt spray recommendation too. Just waiting for my hair to grow bigger to try it current hairstyle and also other ones in the future. Keep up the amazing work.
Always come for the tips and leave learning something new, every time. During your face wash step in the shower, are you alternating between facial soap and an exfoliating scrub? One more than the other?
you deserve more sub man, keep up the good work i've got a question i have really thick hair with pomp hairstyle i started to try different products such as reuzel matte paste pomade, suavecito pomade.. so whats your opinion what do i need to get better finish?
@@ManForHimself strong hold and medium finish, i just curios about good brands, ordered now some products for try bluebeards clay(not sure how clay works for me), uppercut deluxe, tenax by proraso, dapper dan
When using the serums make sure not to touch your skin with the drops because then bacteria gets into the rest of the serum in the bottle which changes how the serums works.
If you are going to use a toner with an AHA or BHA then you DEFINITELY need to apply sunscreen because otherwise the acids can sensitise your skin if exposed to the sun. Personally I want my morning routine to be about protection so I would always use a hydrating toner/serum mixed with other actives such as Vitamin C or Niacinamide. I would worry about exfoliating in the evening and also not use an exfoliating product every day as that can wreck your skin barrier.
@@ManForHimself If your skin can handle pure ascorbic acid then I would recommend a serum that has a concentration of 10%-15% . Pure ascorbic acid is considered the gold standard when it comes to vitamin c . Anything else that calls itself a vitamin C product that doesn't list ascorbic acid as one of its main ingredients means it uses a vitamin c derivative - not as strong as ascorbic acid but more stable and can offer similar benefits. I'd recommend these products Dear Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop- Only uses 5% of pure ascorbic acid but is a nice introductory product to see if your skin can tolerate it. Really Stable SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic- Uses 15% pure ascorbic acid, really really pricey but this product has studies proving its effectiveness MAELOVE The Glow Maker- Again uses 15% but is a really good dupe for the SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic as it uses a similar ingredient list Rohto Mentholatum - Melano CC Vitamin C Essence- Percentages not known but packaged in such a way that it reduces the chances of oxidation. Really hydrating as well Kiehl’s Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate 12.5% Vitamin C- Great for anti-ageing
i feel like the skin on my face looks alright, not really problem but I have pretty bad dark (purple) circles under eyes. Do you think using eye cream or something could help?
Hey, a lot of them have a light scent but the Silvikrin hairspray has a light scent. I have hair fixing reviews here: manforhimself.com/product/hair-fixing-products/ I hope some of them help.
Hey! I really depends on what type of shampoo and conditioner you’re using and if it’s right for your hair. Conditioner improves the feel, look and how manageable the hair is. But it has to be right for you.
Again I had to description to see that this is ad, and kinda knew because you used *correct* term, and there's no correct routines cuz very subjective experience :') but have to hide those AD mentions so sneakily. (for example, there's correct ways to wet shave. Routine always subjective)
Hi Tonaldo, lovely to see your comment, as ever. Please be aware that ‘AD’ is above the fold and it’s also written top right across the actual video at the point that I introduce my brand partnership - 02:00. I also say that “I’m really pleased to be continuing my partnership with Braun.” Also, you say “again,”. I have never hidden my brand partners. I am proud to work with Braun and I want you guys to know about it. It’s a fantastic brand and a huge achievement for me, as a creator. Does this all makes sense?
Tonaldo I have it on the actual video - so you see exactly what an AD is whilst I’m talking about it. It means that you guys don’t have to go exploring to see where it is. It’s also in the description.
1. pleeeeeease please please cut the rat tail 2. fragrance should be applied shortly after the shower while the skin is still warm so your skin can absorb it

Youve convinced me Robin, the braun series 7 is my next purchase!
Go for it! Great tool. Also have the S5 and S6 (on same link: amzn.to/3ixJDax)

Hey Robin, big fan. I just purchased the Free.Hold paste because of your video, & was wondering if you’d have a look at and review the Young.Again oil also from Kevin Murphy?

Thanks in advance:)

Thanks! Some of my favourite clays here: manforhimself.com/product-tag/clay/ it’ll help you with texture, finish and price. 👌🏼

Great video Robin. Question....How long is your morning routine?
Hey! Thank you. Probably about 30 minutes.

I got a similar beard like u but I'm 18 shall I keep shaving it??
Please do a haircare routine.
Loads on the channel, but will do more for sure!

My dad and I both have the Braun series 5 and it’s not very good.
i feel like the skin on my face looks alright, not really problem but I have pretty bad dark (purple) circles under eyes. Do you think using eye cream or something could help?
Hey, yes, for sure. Something with Kojic Acid should help. I have a video that will most definitely help you next week.
@@ManForHimself thanks Robin, I'll watch it. Have a great day!
Hi Robin, do you know any scentless fixing product and pomade? I dont want them to cover or mix with my fragrance!
Hey, a lot of them have a light scent but the Silvikrin hairspray has a light scent. I have hair fixing reviews here: manforhimself.com/product/hair-fixing-products/ I hope some of them help.
Robin James Thank you! Light scent is good enough for me!
You've got the Antonio Banderas look today!
I hope that’s good! Ha ha
Are there any negatives to conditioning everyday like shampooing?
No.
Hey! I really depends on what type of shampoo and conditioner you’re using and if it’s right for your hair. Conditioner improves the feel, look and how manageable the hair is. But it has to be right for you.

Dr. Organic guava face wash and e45 moisturiser is all i need in terms of skin care

Hey, sorry you don’t like my hair. Fragrance applies straight after will be too warm on the skin. Warm fragrance ‘burns off’. It evaporates.

Absolutely - can use it!
how old are you?

You should try shorter on the sides of your hair you would look really great I guess
