For Him (and Her): Toiletries on the Go

With the holidays JUST around the corner, AGAIN (can you believe it?!) most of us will have to pack our belongings and head for the highway or skyway to visit our loved ones during the busiest travel times of the year. Yikes. I normally don’t even go home for Thanksgiving so that I can spare my energy and patience for the traffic juggernaut which inevitably come on the weekend before Christmas this year. BUT, since travel is a must, how about a kit for him, and one for her, that will make moving around for the holiday much simpler?

Let’s start with For Him: The Art of Shaving’s The 4 Elements of the Perfect Shave new Mid-Size Kit brings all that he needs for grooming (Pre-Shave Oil (1oz), Shaving Cream (1.5oz), Genuine Badger Hair Shaving Brush, and After-Shave Balm (1oz)) in a perfectly-sized kit that works for carry-on bags or can easily and safely be stashed in a duffle and tossed into the car. Available in the brand’s classic scents of Sandalwood, Unscented, Lavender, and Lemon, this also makes a great gift for the men in your life or a nice, surprise, stocking suffer (retail for $60).

For Her: The Caboodles of our youth gets a professional upgrade, which takes shape in the form of the Caboodles Artiste ($79.99, Ulta). Toss in your most necessary hair products, styling tools, makeup, nail polishes, and even jewelry to easily transport, and set up your items once you reach your destination. The Artiste easily opens up and cascades out to stylishly and clearly display all that you’ve got, so that you can quickly get ready and squeeze in some quality family time, before you must hit the road and head back.

The Art of Shaving Travel Kit & Razor

A nice treat for any man in your life would be to give them something that will make an everyday task simpler, more enjoyable, and even luxurious. The Art of Shaving elevates a routine shave into a much more memorable experience via their products, and why not bring some of that with you when traveling? In our opinion, the Travel Kit with Razor, $150, would make a great precursor to a surprise trip; wrap it up and present it to him, with a print out of the the flight information folded inside.

Featuring the brand’s signature “The 4 Elements of the Perfect Shave” (Pre-Shave Oil, Pure Badger Shaving Brush, Shaving Cream and After-Shave Balm), this Travel Kit also comes with a Fusion Razor found attached to an upscale, carved handle. Choose from one of the four scents that are sure to suit his fancy and needs: Unscented (hypoallergenic), Lemon (for normal to oily skin), Lavender (for normal to sensitive skin), or Sandalwood (for normal to dry skin). We love how compact everything fits into the well-crafted, water-resistant bag, and the storage of the pure badger brush inside of a case that resembles a 33mm film container is a FANTASTIC idea, so that the hairs don’t get dried out or damaged in-transit.

Shop online at TheArtofShaving.com , in-store, or at fine and specialty retailers such as Sephora, for this, and other travel kits and products. Click below for additional info from The Art of Shaving regarding each of the products included; happy shopping, shaving, and safe travels!
