A SIMPLE, 3-STEP RITUAL FOR HIM
GOLDEN FACE CLEANSER
Your sweetheart will never forget to wash his face before bed thanks to this gentle face wash. As the soothing sage and oat milk scent wafts into the air, the formula’s glycerin plus manuka honey and turmeric get to work at scrubbing away the day’s impurities for cleansed, soft-feeling skin.
TRANQUIL ESSENCE SOOTHING & HYDRATING TONER
This low-maintenance toner and essence is a perfect introduction to skincare and soulcare for him. While some product offerings need a sec to soak into the skin, our Tranquil Essence Soothing & Hydrating Toner offers a quick hit of hydration with soothing aloe, replenishing rose water, and moisturizing glycerin. After cleansing, simply pour the toner onto a cotton pad or the palms of your hands and pat into skin.
SKIN TRANSFORMATION CREAM
Mens’ skincare doesn’t have to be complicated. Wrap up this simple, three-step ritual with the best-selling Skin Transformation Face Cream. Bakuchiol — also known as “Nature’s Retinol” — puts in work to help plump the look of skin while ceramides lock in moisture. Apply before bed to let those nourishing ingredients soak in overnight.
THE BODY CARE RITUAL FOR HIM
ENERGIZING DRY BODY BRUSH
Men’s grooming essentials don’t stop at the face and neck. In fact, nothing beats full-body invigoration. That’s where the Energizing Dry Body Brush comes in. Use a body brush on dry skin before bathing. Start at your feet and gently brush towards your heart in short, upward strokes. This simple ritual exfoliates and helps soften skin, especially on dull areas like the elbows, knees, or the soles of the feet.
RENEWING BODY & HAND WASH WITH MANUKA HONEY
Stock up his bathroom with the Renewing Body & Hand Wash to make his nightly shower ritual more luxurious. The creamy-gel texture and calming sage and oat milk scent turns the most ordinary shower into a spa-like experience.
MIND CLEARING BODY POLISH WITH GLYCOLIC & LACTIC ACIDS
Odds are, the men in your life are not exfoliating enough. Everyone can use a little softening! Time to teach them this time-honored technique with our Mind Clearing Body Polish, which uses a blend of alpha-hydroxy acids to exfoliate and smooth the look of skin. While grooming essentials like a dry brush helps to physically exfoliate, this body scrub works double duty both physically and chemically exfoliating for softer, smoother skin.
PICKS TO LEVEL UP HIS PM SELF-CARE
DEEPLY REPLENISHING SQUALANE FACIAL OIL
Help him craft a nourishing before-bed ritual with just a few offerings, like the Deeply Replenishing Squalane Facial Oil, which uses squalane plus pomegranate oil and prickly pear seed oil to create a soothing, non-greasy feel. He can apply it as a beard oil or fresh-faced as part of an evening skincare ritual to replenish the skin, and embody its affirmation: “I am good to myself.”
RADIANT EYE CREAM WITH PEPTIDES
The eyes are the gateway to our souls, so why not give them some extra love and care? Many have the misconception that an eye cream won’t benefit them. Gift the Radiant Eye Cream as a loving gesture — a symbol of the restorative power that rest and relaxation can bring. The formula’s peptides help to revitalize and smooth the delicate under-eye skin, while sunflower seed oil helps nourish the skin with antioxidants and essential fatty acids.
SOULCARE GRATITUDE JOURNAL
Finally, soulcare is so much more than a man’s skincare ritual. It’s an inside-out philosophy of ongoing care, respect, and gratitude for our bodies that goes way beyond skin deep. Give him the gift of reflection and insight with the Soulcare Gratitude Journal. Allow each quick scribble before bed to seal in his intentions and affirmations.
