Gillette

Does the special guy in your life fashion himself a master groomer? Then give him the extra edge with the Gillette Fusion ProGlide Styler. The 3-in-1 facial hair styling tool trims evenly, shaves closely, and edges accurately whether he favors a simple goatee, a thin chin strap, or a clean shave. Plus, it's watertight and totally safe to use in wet environments, so he can perfect his best look, even in the shower — and easily open and rinse the trimmer door under a stream of water when he's done.

Every day feels like a holiday when you've got your soul mate at your side. That's all the more reason, come holiday time, to present him with the perfect gift that celebrates his distinctive personality — and your love and appreciation of it! Whether he's a sports fan, a style maven, a grooming guru, or a geek at heart, our insightful gift guide below has all the shopping inspiration you need.

Finger-Tipping Good
He'll "glove" texting, emailing, dialing, and playing in snug style with a pair of "smart" gloves featuring special fingertips conducive to touch-screen devices.

Smarter Than the Average Tie
Think cozy, not stuffy, with a textured tie made from an unexpected (but Winter-friendly) material like soft Fair Isle or warm and wooly flannel.

Carry On
Maybe he's always on the go for business, maybe he's got a touch of wanderlust, or maybe he's just tired of toting his toothbrush back and forth from your place in a plastic baggie. Either way, every guy needs a handsome toiletry case with room for all his must haves.

Winning Ways
Can't compete with his love of the game? See if his passion transfers to some of your childhood favorites with keepsake editions of classics like checkers, dominoes, charades, or playing cards.

Cuff 'Em
Even the most low-key dude needs a quality pair of cuff links for those times when you just have to suit up. Despite their stodgy rep, there's lots of fun to be had with personalization — from sports (or sports team) to food-and-drink to comic character themes.

Eye Do
Sunglasses are more than a style staple; they offer essential eye protection all year round. Give his baby blues, browns, or greens the TLC they deserve with a classic pair of aviators — universally flattering and always chic.

Facial Flair

Whether he favors a simple goatee, a thin chin strap, or a clean shave with sharp sideburns, the Gillette Fusion ProGlide Styler lets your man master his best look, even in the shower. The 3-in-1 facial hair styling tool trims evenly, shaves closely, and edges accurately — and rinses easily under a stream of water when he's done. Even better, the ProGlide Styler comes in an Organizer case so his styling tools are as well put together as he is. Don't forget to include some Gillette Fusion ProGlide Clear Shave Gel in his stocking!

In Germany, Gillette is trying a whole new kind of guerrilla marketing to get people shaving. The company's marketing agency in Deutschland says that they've put thousands of these grass-as-pubic-and-pit-hair towels out in public spaces all over Germany.

I like the idea, although I'm not sure BBDO is really conveying Gillette's message effectively here. I mean, the fluffy grass looks so nice and fresh that it almost makes me want to stop shaving, and there's no grass/hair for the legs. How many women are going around with hairy legs and plenty of underarm and nether hair? Still, it's attention-grabbing. Do you think this is smart advertising, or could BBDO have done better by Gillette? Oh, and if you want to see the guy version (yes, they're equal opportunity!), just keep reading.

Instead of its usual "skin so smooth a random hottie will appear to stroke your legs/face" ads, Gillette has decided to go in a different direction, one that involves, oddly enough, a high-powered electron microscope.

Basically, they used the advanced, expensive microscope to etch ad spots into actual tiny beard hairs a Gillette user had shaved off, then blew up the images for their ads. They even had QR codes for the ads in men's airport bathrooms next to the sink, since that's where guys tend to shave and freshen up after a flight. To see scientists using the electron microscope to create the ads, just keep reading.

After two decades in the public eye as an actress, singer, and dancer, Jennifer Lopez's latest ventures are moving towards the beauty spokeslady realm. Just weeks after L'Oréal announced that she's its newest global ambassador, Procter & Gamble-owned Gillette has made her its first global ambassador for Venus razors. Next, I expect she'll be appointed to some kind of beauty ambassadorship at the UN. Check out the commercial below and tell me if you like Jennifer's new promotional turn:
