Cutting your own hair
Cutting your own hair at 12.40am after six or eight beers is a lonely, unnerving business. But wetting my hair in the bathroom mirror, I'm definitely sensing a rush. I'm about to save $40. Plus, I'm unemployed and my conversation bank is low: not a great time to go to the barber. This is totally a smart thing to do.
Aesop
Melbourne brand Aesop have been saving face for almost 20 years, minus the crap chat that’s often packed into the jars of other beauty brands.
Targeting everything from shaving rash to dry hands, Aesop’s ingredients like black pepper, rose otto and parsley seed sound good enough to eat, but they work better on your skin.
Sharps, barber and shop
Remember that buff bloke from the Gillette ads? With the chiselled jaw, muscular physique and smouldering gaze? He was literally the ‘best a man can get’. Unfortunately most men couldn’t get there and were stuck with shaving rash instead.
Luckily new barber-brand Sharps have left no room for second-rate rash, using young talent ‘Billy the goat’ as company face.
Miss A Kit
Sure, the Swiss army knife might help you survive in the wilderness. But how does one get by in the fashion badlands? They can be just as dangerous, especially when you’re ill equipped. And hunny, we’re not talking about keeping a change of underwear in your glove-box.
Miss A Kit is essential for all dates, first or last.
Kenzoki perfumed ice-cubes for the body
Kenzoki is the new range from Kenzo which, as well as sounding like a cute manga character, combines an alternative attitude to skin care with an awareness of the senses. This range draws its virtues straight from the plants. Rich in mineral salts, essential oils and hyper-frequencies, this holistic goodness is fused with textures, colours and odours to separate it from the overstatements and artificiality of traditional cosmetics.
Agent Provocateur Titillation
Kate Moss is an Agent Provocateur devotee, so when we heard about this new AP product we couldn't help but think of Ms Moss lubing up her lips with one hand and her nips with the other. World famous for making cheeky lingerie and accessories, Agent Provocateur's newest release is this naughty-but-nice balm duo.
