#19 Best Teeth Whitener Overall
Crest 3D White Professional Effects Whitening Strips
89%Editor Score
82%User Score
Why People Love it
- Whiter teeth in as little as three days
- Very easy to use
- Dentist recommended and approved
Pros
Everyone has seen advertisements for these little babies and, trust us (we tried them ourselves), they work just as well as Crest claims they will. Crest 3D Luxe Whitestrips are guaranteed to whiten your teeth quickly and safely. As with any whitening product containing peroxide, temporary sensitivity or soreness may occur. However, if you’re looking for a product that will truly make your teeth whiter, and do so within a matter of days, you must give these strips a try.
Cons
Users report some teeth sensitivity and soreness with repeated use. Additionally, be aware that the strips are only large enough to cover 4 to 5 teeth at a time. So if you’re looking to whiten all of your teeth, not just those in the front, the box of strips may not last as long as you would think.
Expert Ratings
Why It’s a Great Gift
8.9 / 10
Crest claims that Crest Whitestrips will remove 14 years of tough, set-in stains and whiten teeth 25x better than any leading whitening toothpaste, and boy do they deliver. Regardless of the few complaints regarding side effects and time frame, reviewers can all agree that this product truly works. Crest Advanced Seal Technology will hold the strips in place throughout the duration of the treatment, allowing you to talk and even drink water while whitening. Additionally, Crest Whitestrips are one of the only whitening remedies that does not require using a thermoform tray! Effective and convenient. Need we say more?
For just 30 minutes a day, Crest Whitestrips will begin to brighten your smile in as little as three days! Though some reviewers did not report a noticeable difference for five to ten days, everyone can agree that you will see fabulous results after using just one box of strips.
Since this product does contain hydrogen peroxide don’t be alarmed if you do experience some tooth sensitivity or gum soreness – totally normal. However, if you’re someone with severe dental sensitives, you may want to consult your dentist before giving this product a try.
At just under $45 for a box of 22 strips (treatments with upper and lower), this is one of the most cost effective whiteners on our list! Totally worth the investment.

Pros
In a nutshell, the Oral-B electric toothbrush is the best of the best. Oral B Owners express that it offers amazing results, similar to other products on the market that are significantly more expensive.
Cons
The only negative of this Oral B product is the large size of the brush head. At first this might make brushing uncomfortable, especially for those with smaller mouths. Additionally, Oral-B users report that the battery wears out after time – but this does not prove extremely problematic as the battery is easily replaceable.

90%Editor Score
92%User Score
Why People Love it
- Your face will actually feel clean and look polished
- Completely removes all dirt and oil, thoroughly preventing breakouts
- Will improve your complexion and get rid of acne
Pros
A dual-purpose liquid cleanser and toner that removes deep-down dirt and oil for clear, smooth, shave-ready skin.
Cons
The consistency of this face wash is thin. So, if you’re one of those guys who squeezes the tube with a full grip, this may not be ideal for you (or at least won’t last you very long).
Expert Ratings
Texture & Fragrance
9.0 / 10
The Jack Black face wash has a thin consistency making it super lightweight. Although there are no artifical fragrances added, there is a light herbal scent to this wash. The good news is, guys love it!
Ingredients
9.5 / 10
To all of you eco-concious dudes out there, you’ll be happy to know that all of the ingredients found in this wash are certified organic and vegan-friendly. The oat and coconut surfactants cleanse the skin down to its deepest level, while the certified organic sage leaf and rosemary provide antibacterial benefits. The added Witch Hazel acts as an astringent which will help in tightening pores and reducing the appearance of wrinkles. What you won’t find are any parabens, colorants, or artificial fragrance.
Value
8.5 / 10
This face wash comes in three different sizes, which means three different prices for your choosing. The 3-ounce bottle is $12.50, the 6-ounce bottle is $19, and the 16-ounce bottle is $35. However, before you go and order the smallest size, know that you’re paying $4 an ounce versus $2 an ounce for the big bottle.
And, if you love this brand as much as we do, the line also has a daily facial moisturizer, intense therapy lip balm, and industrial strength hand healer.

#16 Best Budget Hair Loss Treatment
American Crew Hair Recovery and Thickening Shampoo
91%Editor Score
82%User Score
Why People Love it
- Adds volume and gives the appearance of thicker hair
- Most guys report a noticeable difference
- Great smell (as you would expect)
Pros
This shampoo from American Crew doesn’t actually thicken hair (as you can imagine), but it does make hair appear thicker while leaving it soft and touchable.
Cons
Some guys experience adverse reactions which may be attributable to the parabens inside… or the pH level it imparts.
Expert Ratings
Why It’s a Great Gift
9.1 / 10
For All Hair Types: This neo-classic men’s line carries everything a man needs to look, feel, and smell his best. This shampoo has the added benefit of increasing hair thickness (and even if you’re not worried about that yet, someday you will be). Not only is this shampoo reasonably priced, most women flip when they smell anything by American Crew. The “male-scented” shampoo eliminates excess build-up as it cleanses hair and provides a rejuvenated feeling.
- Active Ingredients: There are some good things in the mix here, including pro-vitamin B5, seed extract, keratin amino acids, and peppermint oil. None of these are qualified to regrow hair, but they do create a terrific environment for that to happen. And, it’s not as if you can stop washing your hair just because you’re losing your hair or using hair regrowth treatments.
- How it works: It’s a shampoo and you should know how to work with that by now.
- Who can use it? It’s designed for men and certainly has a manly scent to it, but it doesn’t contain anything that prohibits women from using it. Younger men (and women) can use it for healthy scalps, even if they’re not yet thinning.
- Frequency of use: As often as you wash your hair – which doesn’t need to be every day. And, you may want to cut down on the hair washing if you have thinning hair. Also be careful not to use too many styling products.
- Will it break the bank? Not even a little. You should be able to pick up this 8.4 fluid ounce bottle for about $10. That puts the price per fluid ounce at about $1.20. That’s not bad at all – and it will probably last you months.

#15 Best Straight Razor For Beginners
Dovo Best Quality Straight Razor
92%Editor Score
86%User Score
Why People Love it
- Best width for newbies
- Lightweight maneuvering
- Perfect starter blade
Pros
If you are just getting started with straight razor shaving, this is the way to go. The handle is light, making it much easier to get the hang of straight razor shaving.
Cons
Men who are more experienced with straight razors aren’t the biggest fans of the plastic scales, so something a little heavier may be a better fit if you are comfortable using a straight razor.
Expert Ratings
Why It’s a Great Gift
9.2 / 10
The blade is made from quality Swedish steel with a rounded tip to reduce the chances of nicking yourself. This Dovo blade is ⅝ of an inch wide, the best width for newbies and wet shave veterans alike. The full hollow on this is a little easier to break the skin, but once you get the hang of it a full-hollow blade will give you the closest shave.
Nothing fancy, but these black plastic scales still have the sleek look and feel you want in a straight razor. They are more delicate than other options, but perfectly fine for a beginner.
Dovo razors are top of the line, so you really cannot beat this price tag. Definitely give this blade a try if you are still uncertain about diving into wet shaving the old fashioned way.

Pros
Made of top grain cowhide leather that is incredibly durable. The interior zippered compartments make for easy organizing, and the doctor bag-style opening holds more than similar-sized kits. A perfect gift for the traveling man!

For those who want to store their shaving and grooming accessories in a beautiful shaving kit, look no further than this genuine cowhide leather case. It’s a shaving brush kit that takes advantage of the beauty and durability of leather.
It’s made from tough cowhide leather and comes in colors from grey to brown to dark brown. It’s a highly elegant storage solution for all your shaving needs!
The doctor bag-style opening gives you the ability to fill the top compartment with more items. The dividers and compartments do take up necessary space, reducing your storage, but it can hold everything you want to take with you: razors, shaving brush, toothbrush, mini-colognes, and more.
The bag comes with zippered compartments, allowing you to organize your toiletries and shaving items. Some people find the bottom compartment useless, though it can be used for storing flat items like a shaving mirror or condoms. With interior and exterior zippered pockets, you’ll find it makes organizing your toiletries a breeze.
At $33, this is a well-priced shaving kit. It’s a bit pricier than the cheaper polyurethane leather kits, but the genuine cowhide leather will last many, many more years!

Pros
Perfect for nose and ear hair removal, hypoallergenic, durable stainless steel blades, no irritation or pulling hairs, can trim moustache with precision, 100% washable design, and single AA battery required.

Why It’s a Great Gift
9.4 / 10
If you’re looking for something to keep all facial hair—not just beard, but nose, eyebrows, moustache, and ear hair—under control, it doesn’t get better than this! This can be used as a beard trimmer for precision grooming, and it will make it easy to shave neat, crisp lines in your beard.
The body groomer comes with attachments for ear and nose hairs. It’s designed to SLICE without pulling, so there’s minimal irritation to your skin. The groomer will make it easier to keep all of your facial and body hair under control.
The trimmer is fairly small, so you’ll want to use it to clean up the lines you cut with a larger trimmer. However, thanks to the curved stainless steel blades, you’ll be able to get the job done efficiently. The single AA battery is long-lasting. All in all, an amazing little addition to any grooming kit!
The groomer is fully waterproof, so it’s easy to rinse all the hairs out of the vacuum container when you’re done shaving. It’s a wet/dry shaver that can be used in the shower. The micro-vacuum system prevents your trimming from making a mess in the sink or shower.
At around $40, this is a bit of a pricey groomer. However, when you consider how useful it is for keeping that “other” hair under control, you’ll see it’s worth adding to any grooming kit.

Pros
Strong, manly scent; works up a rich, thick lather; ideal for use with boar bristle brush; softens and smooths out your skin for a closer shave; and strong enough you won’t need to put on cologne after.

If you’re looking for a rich, thick lather that will give you a great shave every time, this is the shaving cream for you!
The cream comes with a mixing bowl, making it easy for you to mix it up to a thick foam using a boar bristle brush (brush sold separately). If you’re a man who loves the old-fashioned shave, the sandalwood scent will bring back memories of your very first shaving experience.
In addition to sandalwood, the cream has lavender, rosemary, rose, and jasmine, all subtle flavors that make it smell great while also soothing, moisturizing, and hydrating your skin. You won’t need to wear cologne after shaving with this cream–the sandalwood and floral scents will last all day. But do be aware Some people found the smell TOO strong or sharp.
You get a beautifully thick lather from this cream, one that makes the razor glide smoothly over your skin. The ingredients will help to soften your skin and hair, making your shave much easier. It’s not as moist as other shave creams, but you’ll find that this can be easier for shaving, keeping the foamy mess to a minimum.
Value
9.5 / 10
At $17, this is one of the priciest shaving creams on the list. However, if you’re looking for a better shave and prefer the old-fashioned way (bristle brush and straight razor), you won’t find a shaving cream to match this one.

Expert Ratings
Performance
9.5 / 10
If you’re looking for a quality shaving soap that gives you a drier shave than classic creams and foams, this is a good product to consider. It’s wet enough for a single pass, and it won’t make as big of a mess as wetter and thicker foams.
The ingredients contain natural antiseptics like eucalyptus and menthol, both of which help to tone your skin and give the cream a pleasant smell. The cream also contains coconut oil, stearic acid, eugenol (from cloves), and geraniol (from rose oil) that will help to moisturize, hydrate, and tone your skin. It’s not the most natural shaving cream around, but the natural ingredients it does contain will do a great job of nourishing your skin.
Working up a lather can be a bit of a challenge until you figure out the “secret”. However, the lubrication is good, and it will protect your face from razor burns, bumps, and rashes. The foam isn’t as thick as others, but you’ll still get a good close shave every time.
Value
9.5 / 10
$10 isn’t too high a price to pay for this shaving soap. It’s as good as many of the other shaving creams on the market, and at a much lower cost. If you’re looking for something a bit simpler than fancy shaving foam, it’s a good option to consider.

If you’re looking for a quality beard grooming product, this is the one for you!
The list of ingredients includes:
- Extra virgin coconut oil, which contains lots of Vitamin E to condition and moisturize your skin, stimulate hair growth, and even act as a natural sunscreen.
- Evening primrose and added Vitamin E oils to reduce itching, protect your skin, and prevent dandruff.
The amber-colored glass bottle protects what’s inside from UV sunlight, ensuring that the natural oils last longer without degrading.
The scent is mild and pleasant, with a manly fragrance you can’t help but love. People familiar with the classic “Tropical Bay Rum” scent may find that this product doesn’t exactly match what you’re used to, but it has a very mild “pina colada” smell. For those who hate overpowering smells, it’s a good option to consider. It won’t drown out the scent of your cologne.
This creation is absorbed beautifully into your skin and hair, and it applies easily: add a few drops to your hand and rub into the hair. If you need help getting unruly facial hair under control, this is an excellent oil to do just that.

Turn this bad boy on, and you’ll be surprised by how much power is packed into this little Wahl beard trimmer. It’s beautifully lightweight, small, and portable, yet has more power than most of the cordless beard trimmers on this list. The fact that it’s corded means you need to always be near a power source, but it works so well you can easily forgive this one flaw.
The motor packs a wallop, and you’ll get professional-grade attachments, trimmers, and shaving blades all bundled into one little trimmer. The fact that it’s small means it’s easy to maneuver to hit all those hard-to-reach places. It fits comfortably in your hand, and it delivers a perfect trim every time. It won’t deliver a close shave, but you’re buying it to TRIM your beard, not shave it!
Features

You get the typical beard-trimmer attachments with this professional beard trimmer: four combs of varying length (between 1/2 and 1/8 of an inch), a cleaning brush, oil, and a blade guard. It’s a “no frills” trimmer that is amazing for keeping your beard under control.

If you want a professional-grade buzzer for use at home, this is the one for you. The buzzer feels nice and solid in your hands, but the ergonomic, lightweight design means you can use it for hours without tiring your wrists or hands. It’s a workhorse buzzer that will keep up with frequent hair cuts or daily trims.
This is one of the quietest buzzers on the market, making it perfect for use at home. It will slice through thick, coarse, and kinky hair with ease, and there’s no risk of your hair being tugged. Keep it oiled (with the brush and oil), and it will serve you well for years to come.
The buzzer comes with only four attachments: Blending, 1/4″, 3/8″, and 1/2″. It’s not the most versatile buzzer, but it gets the job done. However, be warned, removing the combs won’t give you a true “0” shave. It’s not the closest shave around, but it’s a highly reliable buzzer nonetheless.
The lever allows you to adjust the length of the cut, and you’ll find that the high speed of the motor gives the clippers all the shearing power needed to cut through any type of hair.
This may be a tad pricey at $55, but it’s one of the highest-rated, most reliable buzzers for home use. It will keep up with daily and weekly trims, and it’s built to last A LONG time.

This is probably the best pomade we have ever tested. It is ideally balanced. The hold is strong and flexible, giving enough power to do just about anything you want. Yet with a soft with an elegant look. It’s really the best of both worlds. Having a great hold but with a natural look is one of the most difficult balancing acts a hair styling product can achieve.
You can have a bit of a shine with a minimal comb through. Or you can have a more natural look with a comb through. The flexibility is nice.
The smell is amazing—a manly scent with just enough freshness. Plus it is packed with a bunch of organic ingredients
The cost is reasonable at $19. When comparing it to Hanz de Fuko Heavy Made, it’s less expensive, and the jar has 20% more product. It’s more expensive than a lower-cost brand like Suavecito, but you get so much more value both with the organic and natural ingredients as well as a nicer look.
The pomade is suitable for most hair types (thin to thick), and it works great to keep longer hair styled. If you want an elevated hairstyle (updo, tightly-controlled man bun, spiked tips, or even a Mohawk), the pomade gives you the hold you want.
Yet it does not leave your hair looking greasy or shiny like a lot of gels or pomades. Instead, you get a natural look with just enough of a slight shine to make people sit up and take notice.

Deodorant is a must-have when it comes to staying well-groomed. And for many of us, sometimes it’s hard to find a deodorant that can keep up with us all day long. This Extra Fresh antiperspirant by Dove holds up (even through sweaty workouts) and keeps you smelling fresh no matter where you go.

Help him stock up on his deodorant supply, and introduce him to a fresh scent you’re both sure to love!
