I guess I missed the memo, but apparently July is the greatest grooming month of all time for guys. First we heard about Bobbi Brown's new Yogi Bare Lip Balm and now Kiehl's is getting ready to launch two new items in their famed royal blue-packaged Facial Fuel Collection. The first product is a creamy and amazing-scented No-Shine Lip Balm ($8.50) and the second is an Anti-Wrinkle Cream ($35).
The lip balm is made from a blend of jojoba oil, apricot kernel oil, shea butter, and sweet almond oil to create a soothing, hydrating and pepper-minty fresh lip treat that feels creamy, yet has a completely matte finish. The hook is that it's for guys, but I kinda feel like Kiehl's products are unisex. Having said that, I wouldn't deny the special man in my life from scoring this lip balm, but he's definitely going to have to share it with me — yes, it's really that good.
The face moisturizer is oil free, lightweight, and it won't clog your pores. It claims to firm, tighten, and reduce the visibility of fine lines, while cooling your skin (something I think guys will appreciate postshave). It contains all kinds of goodness such as birch extract, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and horse chestnut to make the skin look more radiant and awake. Do these products interest you as potential gifts for Father's Day?

Not for my dad...
1do you think us girls can get away with using the firming creme?
2I'm definitely going to look into that lip balm - I have big lips and I hate balms with a lot of shine because it gets really emphasized. My last matte lip balm was more of a miss than a hit, though.
3I don't think my man will ever use any of it.
4anti-wrinkle cream seems like an insult!
5My husband's not that into skin care. He's into cologne though.
6Chiquita, get ur hubby into skincare. A simple regimen he will understand and get used to. Most importantly including an SPF.
Um, so yeah I'm totally fixin' to buy that lip balm cuz like I really need it and I LOVE a matte balm. Too much shiny sh*t out there for me nowadays.
7You're right, I think Kiehl's is pretty unisex but don't you think it is crazy/funny that men will only use something with FOR MEN stamped all over it!? My favourite MAN product is some L'Oreal moisturiser that claims to contain 'turbo booster'. Silly men.
8guys never stay on top of it, unless they are gay or metro, then they'll be way on top of it.
9Hey!
