Grooming: Latest Posts

Finding a gift for the man who says he "doesn't really do skincare" just got easier. The GLOSSYBOX Grooming Gift Guide is a limited-edition festive box with 8 grooming essentials from NUXE, Molton Brown, Philip Kingsley, Aromatherapy Associates and more, all packed into a sleek navy grooming bag. GLOSSYBOX describes it as "the gift of great grooming," curated to refresh, refine and elevate his routine. It costs £40, and buying the same products one by one would cost over £156.

Release Date & Prices

The Grooming Gift Guide is available now (October 2026). It's priced at £40, and GLOSSYBOX subscribers pay £35. You can also split the cost into 4 interest-free payments of £10. Stock usually ships within 24 hours, so it works for early planners and last-minute shoppers alike.

The Products Inside

Here's the full line-up, with GLOSSYBOX's own worth figures:

• NUXE Men [BOOST]³ Eau de Parfum (full size, worth over £47). The bottle is labelled "NUXE men Le Parfum." Its formula lists Atlas cedar, patchouli, bergamot and lemon oils, and it's labelled vegan.
• Aromatherapy Associates De-Stress Muscle Gel (full size, worth £42). A cooling blend of rosemary, eucalyptus, ginger, black pepper and juniper.
• AKT London The Deodorant Balm 'After Thunder' (full size, worth £21). A balm made with arrowroot, shea butter and calendula.
• Philip Kingsley Flaky/Itchy Scalp Anti-Dandruff Shampoo (deluxe size, worth over £14). It's formulated with piroctone olamine.
• Molton Brown Re-charge Black Pepper Bath & Shower Gel (deluxe size, worth £14). A body wash made with black pepper oil.
• grüum danne Clear Shave Gel (full size, worth £8). A clear gel with witch hazel and aloe.
• BARBER PRO Anti-Ageing Vitamin C Face Sheet Mask (full size, worth £5). Lemon, blueberry and sea buckthorn extracts give it a bright, refreshing feel.
• Better World Fragrance House Summer Mink EDP (extra treat, 1.5ml sample, worth over £4).

Most of the products are labelled vegan, and the box covers shower, shave, scalp, skin and scent.

What's New: Why It Works as a Gift

This box covers the full grooming routine, so he gets a complete routine in one bag. The two full-size fragrances and treatments (NUXE and Aromatherapy Associates) make up roughly half the stated value on their own. That's a big part of what makes £40 good value.

How to Use It: A Simple Routine

1. Shower: Start with the Molton Brown Black Pepper gel. Use the Philip Kingsley shampoo two to three times a week if his scalp is flaky.
2. Shave: The grüum gel is a clear shave gel, so he can see where he's shaving.
3. Treat: Use the BARBER PRO sheet mask before a night out. Apply the De-Stress Muscle Gel after the gym.
4. Finish: Use the AKT balm on clean, dry underarms, then a spritz of NUXE on the pulse points.

Fragrance-sensitive? Check the ingredient lists on the packaging before use. Several products contain naturally occurring allergens such as limonene and linalool.

The GLOSSYBOX Grooming Gift Guide is limited edition, so if this is on your shortlist, it's worth grabbing before the festive rush.

Finding a gift for the man who "doesn't really do skincare" just got easier. M&S has launched The Look Sharp Mens Grooming Kit, a set of seven grooming essentials from well-loved beauty and fragrance names, packed into a practical zip wash bag. It covers fragrance, skincare, hair and SPF for £35, so it works as both a gift and a ready-made travel kit.

Release Date and Price

The Look Sharp Kit appeared as "Just Arrived" on the M&S website on 2 October 2026 and is available to buy now. The price is £35. M&S offers next-day Click & Collect, and standard UK delivery is free on orders over £75.

What's Inside: The Products

Here is everything in the wash bag, as M&S lists it:

• Autograph Satin Ember Eau de Parfum, 50ml (full size)
• Hair by Sam McKnight Dressed to Kill Define & Defrizz Crème, 30ml
• Weleda Skin Food Light Moisturiser, 30ml (full size)
• ESPA Positivity Shower Gel, 30ml
• The Organic Pharmacy Daily Mineral SPF30 UV Protection, 10ml
• Clinique Anti Fatigue Eye Gel, 15ml (full size, the Clinique For Men version)
• Discover Cool Vetiver Eau de Parfum, 10ml

Three of these products are full size, including the 50ml Autograph fragrance. That means the kit holds a complete everyday routine, with travel sizes alongside items that will last well beyond one trip.

Why It Works for Men's Grooming

The set covers the full routine, from shower to final spritz, without being complicated. Each step has a clear job:

• ESPA Positivity Shower Gel for the morning shower
• Weleda Skin Food Light to keep skin hydrated without feeling heavy
• Clinique Anti Fatigue Eye Gel to refresh the under-eye area after a late night or an early flight
• The Organic Pharmacy Daily Mineral SPF30 for everyday UV protection, a step many men skip
• Sam McKnight's Define & Defrizz Crème to tame and shape hair
• Two fragrances, Satin Ember and Cool Vetiver, so he can switch between scents

The wash bag is useful well after the minis run out. It's the right size for the gym, weekends away or carry-on luggage.

How to Use the Look Sharp Kit

If the person you're buying for is new to grooming, this order is a good starting point:

1. Cleanse in the shower with the ESPA shower gel.
2. Moisturise face and neck with Weleda Skin Food Light.
3. Tap a small amount of Clinique Anti Fatigue Eye Gel around the eyes with your ring finger.
4. Protect with The Organic Pharmacy SPF30 as the last skincare step in the morning.
5. Style by working a small amount of Define & Defrizz Crème through damp or dry hair.
6. Finish with a spritz of fragrance on the pulse points.

Tip: Keep the 10ml Cool Vetiver in a gym bag or jacket pocket for top-ups, and leave the full-size Satin Ember at home.

The Verdict

It's a strong gift for birthdays, holidays or anyone who travels often. Gift sets like this tend to sell quickly ahead of the festive season, so it may be worth buying early.
