GROOMING – The Ultimate Travel Products For Men

Words: Violet

Whether it’s for business or pleasure, long-haul or short, travelling can play havoc with your appearance. No matter how stylish your outfit is or how high end your suitcases are, if you come out of the airport with your hair a mess, an unapologetic stubble, bags under your eyes and dry skin, the illusion, my friend is well and truly dead. Luckily enough, slowly but surely, our favourite grooming brands are catching on to the importance of travel grooming and the rising number of people who no longer bother at all with anything other than carry-on luggage. Companies are stepping up to make the art of manoeuvring an on-board bag through security just a little bit easier. So take a look at a few of our favourite travel-friendly grooming products.

EYE ROLL-ON

Icy - TGJ.01

This is one of our all time favourite grooming products for the travelling man. It cools and firms up the skin under your eyes, reducing puffiness almost instantly. The perfect way to look fresh-faced after a 12 hour flight.

FACE WASH & MOISTURISER

Grooming - TGJ.04

Recycled air, germs, dehydration and general bad hygiene when onboard a flight will turn even the most smooth skinned face into a war-zone of blemishes and dry patches. Luckily, this small bag has all you need when on-board and is perfect for a quick scrub and moisturise in the bathrooms on arrival.

HAIR

Grooming - TGJ.03

This matte finish, high-hold wax combines the pliability of a pomade with the staying power of a gel. Perfect for everything from textured, bed-head looks to more polished coifs, it will sail through security and is so small it won’t take up valuable travel space.

£16.45 – amazon.co.uk
