Valentine’s Day is approaching and let’s be honest, it’s not always easy to please a guy with a present. Especially for Valentine’s Day.

Getting a present for a girl is way easier. That bag that she really likes? Sure why not, sorted! Oh, have you forgotten about Valentine’s Day? That’s bad, but no problem: pop to the flower shop, add some chocolates to that and you might have saved the day.

Women like all sorts of things. From jewellery to flowers, from clothes to a nice framed picture. With guys it’s different. It can be really hard to nail the perfect present for them!

This is why I have decided to write something dedicated to you girls. If you are struggling picking the perfect present for your other half, this might be the place to start from.

If there’s a thing that never goes out of fashion it’s a well-groomed guy. Unfortunately, appearances still count a lot and a scruffy look sometimes just isn’t good enough.

These are the main reasons why a grooming product could be the perfect present for him this Valentine’s:

  1. Aren’t you tired of that itchy beard? Yes, it’s trendy but not if every kiss is an unpleasant experience. Every hug feels like cuddling a porcupine. The solution isn’t shaving! The solution is taking care of that magnificent facial hair. Some beard oil is what you are after. Its moisturising properties softens the beard and re-hydrates the skin. You can’t get much better than that!
  2. Beard oils can have great fragrances. There are tons you can choose from. Do you prefer a more manly flavour or something more zesty, ready for the spring? Just pick your favourite and be ready to welcome a new awesome perfume to your everyday life!
  3. Moustache styling is an art. If the love of your life loves his handlebars it’s great news, but is he taking care of it properly? If he’s using hairspray to get the necessary hold, the answer is no. At this point the gift you’re looking for is a Beeswax Moustache Wax. 100% natural, with a wonderful aroma.
  4. Beards get tangled. The longer, the worse. There’s no need to share your brush with him though. A nice beard comb or beard brush will solve the tangling issue. His beard will look tidier and better-shaped.
  5. Maybe you’d love to have a bearded gent at your side, but he never managed to get over the stubble stage? He was probably just missing the right tools. If you want to give him a luxury all-around kit to start with, acomplete beard grooming kit will fulfil all his needs. A selection of oils, moustache wax and the essential combs. A bearded guy’s paradise.

Let’s face it, whether you like it or not, beards are a huge trend right now. Everybody is growing one and taking real pride in it. Growing a beard isn’t hard per se, but taking care of it properly is the real challenge.

Finding the right products and building up the correct routine is the key for an amazing beard experience.

Why not use this Valentine’s day to gift something useful and that he will surely appreciate?
