Now that the weather has finally made a shift towards all things cool (literally!) - unless, of course, if you’re in Australia (G’day, mate!) - it’s time to take a look at your life and assess if you’ve got what it takes to make it through the season.
Hey, we’re not talking about not having a girlfriend during cuffing season - that’s an issue for another time. We’re asking you to focus instead on your grooming products so that you could maybe land yourself a date to somehow make it through cuffing season!
Like with every other thing, a change in season warrants a change in your grooming routine. The moisturiser you were using during summer might not be as effective for cold weather. Same with your SPF, eye cream, and pretty much everything. It’s time to do a check, put aside all that’s no longer going to be of use and make space for products that are designed to service your skin in the cold, harsh winter weather.
Here are 10 Esquire-approved winter grooming products that’ll make for a worthy winter companion to your skin:
