Wingman - Awesome male grooming products (they really are!!)

Hello there!!

So I've been taking to Twitter quite a bit recently and started following a brand called Wingman.

They make male grooming products with some unique characteristics - the scents, and that they are 3-in-1, meaning they can be used to wash the body, hair, and also, shave the face with.

Wingman kindly sent me their 3-in-1 Jetwash Shampoo-Shower-Shave products (yes, I did make a reference to the three S's there..) which I said I would kindly try-out and review for them.

So here we go!!

Lets start with, what I think, is the most unique and probably signature scent of the three - Jetfuel.

This is is a very unique scent in that it smells like Wood, Spice and... Aviation Fuel.

Yup, that's right - Aviation Fuel. This stuff smells AMAZING!! My nasal passages have never had the pleasure of a smell like this passing through them. Words cannot describe... it's not like the forecourt of a petrol station(!!), but you can smell what is supposed to be the smell of "fuel".

Don't be put off by this, the scent works really well, and really is a masculine manly scent, not too overpowering, but it lingers enough in the air and on your skin after you wash with it that you know it's definitely there!!

The gel itself is a nice thick consistency, and is a pale orangey colour.

The next fragrance in the line is called Boom. This is the minty one of the three, smelling of Spearmint and Peppermint.

This one is great if you're feeling a little stuffed up with a cold or flu, the smell is amazing and lingers around in the bathroom after showering like a steam-room at a spa. Lovely!!

This one is bright blue in colour, and is thick and foams nicely like the other products.

The final fragrance in the line is called Charge. This one is the fruity one - scented with Lemon, Mandarin and Coconut.

The scent on this one is also great, fruity, but not to the point of being too "girly".

Again this lathered nicely, the scent lingered long enough, and the gel is nice and thick; this one coloured a nice citrusy-lemony-yellow colour.

I have used each of the products, and have used them for their 3 uses - as a shower gel it laters up nicely and leaves the body feeling clean and fresh, as a shampoo it leaves me hair clean, shiny, and any styling product is also removed and doesn't leave me feeling greasy, and as a shave gel, it provides adequate shaving lather to give a close and comfortable shave with no irritation.

These products genuinely are fantastic, and the fact that they are 3-in-1 means they're great for taking to the gym or taking on holiday or weekends away, festivals etc as it eliminates the need for taking 3 different products, or faffing about with dispensing any products into smaller travel bottles.

They are available to purchase in Tesco stores, on the Wingman Webstore, and at select online stockists.

Ursa Major Men Fantastic Face Wash

It really is that Fantastic!!

In this post I would like to introduce you to Vermont based Ursa Major, and one of their products - the Fantastic Face Wash. Over the course of the next few days I will also be reviewing their other products, which consist of a Toner, Shave Cream and Face Balm.

The bottle design, simple, striking and to the point

This face wash is a concentrated gel formula that doesn't dry out your skin, or leave it feeling greasy or oily.

Because it is concentrated, you only a little to go a long way (about the size of a penny in the palm of your hand), which also means the bottle will last a good 4-6 months, so it is excellent value for money.

After lathering up

The ingredients are fantastic, as well as being 99.5% natural and 51% organic.

And the scent - my goodness!! I have never smelt a face wash (or anything of that matter) that smells as nice as this - a really rich, woody-minty-herbally smell that fills the bathroom when you lather it up on your face, for some reason reminds me a little bit like Christmas :)

Directions and Ingredients

After cleansing my face with this wash, it never feels dry or tight, like most other gel washes do. I think this is because this is a natural product that contains no chemical nasties that can dry out your skin such as Sodium Lauryl/Laureth Sulphate). Also, my face is never left feeling red or irritated after using this wash, this is due to the natural oils in the product having a calming and almost therapeutic affect on the skin. Moisturisers/balms still sink in like a dream, and I feel that this product is perfectly fine to use twice a day (morning and night).

The product lathered on my face - note the low but right amount of lather

Ursa Major are a fantastic brand, and not well known in the UK. I have spoken to friends, family and colleagues and all seem to be unfamiliar with them, but having spoken to them about the brand, showed them the products and given them some to try, they have all said that this will certainly be a brand that they will look into purchasing from in the future.

This is an amazing face wash, and has been my go-to wash for the past year almost, and I cannot recommend it enough. This is one that you HAVE to try. 5/5
