Spring has arrived and it's the perfect time of the year to take extra care of our skin and to try something new in our daily routine. Mankind is the number one online store for everything skincare for men in the UK. Their range of products is simply unbelievable! To celebrate the beginning of Spring, Mankind has sent me a selection of new products for review purposes. As always I will give you an honest opinion and tell you what works for me.

In this first post I am going to talk about an amazing product that is exclusive to Mankind: the Mankind Grooming Box. Every month the team prepares a fantastic box that you can purchase directly on their online store. It’s a limited edition so you have to be fast. What I like about this grooming box is that you don’t have to subscribe and pay monthly. Visit Mankind, check what’s inside the box and if you like it...buy it! It costs £25 and it is packed full of great products with a total value over £80! So here is my full review of the Mankind Grooming Box that I received a few weeks ago.

What’s in the box?

Kerastase Densifique shampoo: 250ml
Tigi for men: Bed Head Matte Separation: 85g
Jack Black: Intense Therapy Lid Balm SPF25 7g
Bull Dog: Original Face Scrub: 100ml
MenRock: Sicilian Lime Shave Cream 100g
Regenerate Advanced Toothpaste 75ml

As you can see, the Mankind Grooming Box is packed with an amazing selection of grooming products for men. I have added these products to my daily routine, and I am really pleased with the results. Here is what I think of each product!

Kerastase Densifique shampoo: 250ml

Kerastase is probably one of the most known Shampoo brands in the world. This Daily care shampoo is designed specially for men. I am 43, I still have hair on my head :) and my hair is quite thick. This shampoo is great, my hair feels really clean, healthier and thicker too! Great choice of shampoo!

Tigi for men: Bed Head Matte Separation: 85g

The Bed Head For Men range from TIGI doesn't need presentation. This workable wax is called Matte Separation. It is easy to apply and gives a great matte look. At the moment I am between Matte Wax and Wet Look Hair Gel, it depends on my mood, or the way I want to look which one I use. When I want the cool Matte Wax look, I always use this one from Bed Head by Tigi. What I like about it: it is not greasy, it's easy to work, the hold is perfect (not too hard, not too soft) and it washes out easily.

Regenerate Advanced Toothpaste 75ml

I didn't know this brand of toothpaste until now. So I decided to give it a go with some excitement. And I'm glad I did as I love the taste and it gives a deep clean feeling. It's a great toothpaste that I have added to my daily routine. It costs £10 on Mankind, so it's very nice to see it inside the box.

Bull Dog: Original Face Scrub: 100ml

Bulldog is a brand that I use regularly. Their products are always good, and my skin always feels nice after using a Bulldog product. This Face Scrub is perfect for a deep clean, especially before shaving. I use it 2-3 times a week.

MenRock: Sicilian Lime Shave Cream 100g

MenRock is another brand that I discovered thanks to the Mankind Grooming Box. Shave Creams are not my number one choice as a shaving product (I prefer shaving oil). Menrock shave cream is from the Sicilian Lime range. The smell is simply gorgeous, for sure they didn't lie about Sicilian Limes! I use a shaving brush to apply the cream on my face. Shaving was great, no cuts, and skin feels fresh. If you are into shaving creams or traditional shaving, I highly recommend it!

Jack Black: Intense Therapy Lip Balm SPF25 7g

The last product in the box is the Intense Therapy Lip Blam from Jack Black. A Lip Balm is always good to have especially in winter. This balm has SPF25 and an intense menthol taste. As always, another excellent product from Jack Black.

Final thoughts:

I think this is a no brainier and I highly recommend the Mankind Grooming Box. It’s clear they've put a lot of effort into getting a really great selection of products. The value for money is really good and at £25 it should be in your Monthly Must Have list! If like me, you enjoy trying something new, and taking care of your skin is one of your top priorities, this Grooming Box is perfect for you. I am very impressed by this product from Mankind. Before the end of the month I will publish two more skincare posts in collaboration with Mankind, and the next one will be a review of a brand that I have just discovered: British Barber Association. Thanks!
