Beauty and the Boys
Why do things in a man’s wash bag seem more interesting than our own? Much to his chagrin, here’s what we pillage every day:
If ‘men sweat and ladies perspire’ we may need some help. Alcohol and aluminum- free, the eucalyptus deodorant from Malin+Goetz keeps us dry as a duchess. $20 at Jacob & Sebastian, 622 Queen St. W., Toronto, 674-345-0478, www.jacobandsebastian.com
Our boy likes his hair products (lucky us) and we routinely dip into his jar of Kerastase Homme Densifying Modeling Paste. It’s great for taming fly-aways and we love the smell. $35 at www.kerastase.ca
The old-school barbers of Florence might not approve but Proraso isn’t just for signori. The brush and shaving cream combo that Sweet Cheeks uses on his five-o-clock works wonders on our legs. Get great tips for a close shave here. From $7 at Shoppers Drugmart, www.shoppersdrugmart.com
While we’re at it we may as well take the wash bag too. This handsome one from WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie is made from recycled cotton canvas. It’s roomy enough for all his haul, plus our own. $225 at www.mrporter.com —Marianne Wisenthal
