Kiehl's Facial Fuel Eye De-Puffer

My husband doesn't use much (a bar of soap on a good day), but I've been bringing him trendy men's skin care products for the last ten plus years. Out of everything I gave him, it was this Kiehl's cleaner that I got thanks to the brand that I immediately stole back. It's an eye cream in an unusual stick format, and it instantly cools, as if you were rubbing an ice cube on your face. I decided not to tell him how amazing it was, for fear that he might actually use it. Now it's mine.

Kiehl's Facial Fuel Toning Facial Wash

For some reason, I never forget to bring face wash with me when I travel, which is why I keep stealing from my husband. Kiehl's Facial Fuel Toning Facial Wash. It's not the best choice for my constantly dry skin to use regularly, but it works great as a last resort, especially when we're somewhere warm and humid and my face is oilier than usual.

House99 Seriously groomed beard and hair balm

I love to take some of my boyfriend's beard balm and apply it to his hair. I really find it tames flyaway hair and makes my hair silky smooth. He's been using House 99 Seriously Groomed balm lately, so with real army pants and flip flops (Mean Girls, anyone?), I now use House 99 Seriously Groomed balm.

Kiehl's Age Defender Dual Action Exfoliating Cleanser

Fun fact: When I was younger, I always stole my father's foaming shaving cream to shave my legs because I found that his version gave me a closer and better shave than the floral scented women's version I used. That was the start of my love of using unexpected products in my skincare routine – like the internet-famous aftershave balm instead of a sticky makeup base, or this Age Defender cleanser as an all-around must-have. I love how it works as a deep cleansing, exfoliating facial mask that draws out excess dirt and oil. I leave it on for about five minutes once a week at night and I find my pores look smaller and my skin looks fresher immediately after using it.

Native Deodorant for sensitive skin with coconut and vanilla

While most kids spent their teenage years using Teen Spirit (my cousins ​​did and I was jealous), I was stuck smearing my pits in a very unsexy natural deodorant courtesy of my dad. This is what he used, and when we visited for the summer, we also used it by default. These days, I'm grateful he gave me a natural deodorant because my armpits can't stand aluminum and baking soda. Lately I've been opting for Native Sensitive Skin Deodorant Coconut & Vanilla, which smells good, doesn't pill like some of the other natural products I've tried, and makes me pretty harmless (I think) to others most of the time. day.

Shaving Cream House99 Neat Cut

I'm not entirely sure if he knows this or not, but I keep stealing my boyfriend's shaving cream in the shower. I find it gives me a smoother, closer shave than any of the women's shaving creams I've bought in the store. House99 Shaving Cream has a rich texture that both hydrates and helps my razor glide. It's also made for sensitive facial skin, so it leaves absolutely no irritation when I use it on my legs.

The Ordinary + HA natural moisturizing factors

Lucky for memy brotherand I have the same type of skin (very dry and in constant need of hydration) and as he took more care of his skin he showed off his latest picks. His and now my favorite is Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA by The Ordinary. It's full of skin-friendly ingredients, including hyaluronic acid, which does wonders for my skin. My skin is dry all year round so I make sure to include this in my morning and evening routine for XNUMX/XNUMX hydration.
