GIVEAWAY: Axe’s new Excite line
Axe Excite anti-perspirant, body wash, body spray, and deodorant
You all know by now I’m a stickler for (awesome) smells. Well, Axe just sent me their newest line, Excite, and I’m having a hard time stopping myself from misting the body spray all over my apartment because it smells.so.GOOD. Even my girl friends who were sitting around while I was recklessly misting the living room with it were getting up from their seats to get a closer sniff, “WOW that smells good.” It’s a blend of coconut, caramel, and hazelnut but to me it just smells like MAN. Ok fine, maybe a really hot man. I like that it has a masculine woody smell, but still fresh so it’s not overpowering (yes, guys CAN actually go overboard with the cologne, and that’s not good either).
Since I have no one to give this to (sorry male friends…I feel like it would just be awkward for you to smell this amazing) my living room will continue to smell like Axe. Good news is Axe is partnering up with BATF to give three of you a chance to get your hands on a dopp kit of Excite’s 24 Hour deodorant, anti-perspirant, revitalizing shower gel, and deodorant body spray by entering today’s giveaway!

Finding Good Hair Product for Men
By ASy
***Read til the end for a Philip Kinglsey Giveaway!***
I’m a sucker for two things: good kicks and good hair. Whether you own a pair of Jordan’s, Puma’s, or the John Varvatos Chuck Taylors, each unique sneaker has its own personality and usually tells a story about who you are, your character and style. Like a fresh pair of Nikes, a good hair style does precisely the same.
But time and time again, whenever the American Crew Pomade
I’ve struggled to find a good reliable product, until now…
Jimmy Kimmel and the Handsome Men’s Club
This is awesome. Jimmy Kimmel’s club of beautiful men. Yes.
Best club ever. Did you think anyone was missing?
Man ponytails: yaay or nay?
Does it make it worse that a dude not only stole your girl, but the d-bag with the pony tail did?
Soooo, question of the day: How do you feel about men with pony tails?
I’d say generally don’t love the manny-tails, but it also depends on how the guy carries himself with it. I’m just into shorter styles on guys, but then people like ohh..I dunno…DAVID BECKHAM comes along sporting a pony tail and it just works. Anything he does works.
New survey shows men love their beauty products too…
A new survey published in The Independent shows men are “increasingly concerned about their looks and invest in products accordingly.”
The article lists out which types of products in the male beauty category are best sellers in China (creams and moisturizers from gf); France (French fragrance brands like Le Male by Jean Paul Gaultier or 1 Million by Paco Rabanne and hydrating/exfoliating face creams from Sephora); and the US.
Seems like guys from the US are into their skin, teeth, and colognes. Top sellers in the fragrance category came out to be the clasics like Acqua di Parma, Dolce & Gabbana’s Light Blue, and Armani’s Acqua di Gio. Sounds about right — I have yet to find a guy who isn’t currently going through — or at least have recently gotten over their — Acqua di Gio phase. Good cologne, but why not expand your horizons to one that, you know, doesn’t smell like every other guy? Hint: Lacoste, Givenchy Pi, Burberry Brit, John Varvatos.
