Nivea for Men Revitalizing Eye Cream, is great for “tried eyes,” or the morning after a serious drinking bout. It reduces dark circles, puffiness and fine lines. $8.99, available at drug stores.

Burberry Brit Aftershave Balm is great for daily use, and provides a clean, classic scent as well as moisturizing properties. $30.99 in fine stores.

Whether you shave full-face, or like me just around your beard, the Gillette Fusion Power Phenom is the one to get. It’s inexpensive ($10.99) and it provides the least amount of irritation with the closest shave ever. The replacement blades are pricey (about $20 for a box of 4) but well worth it.

For protection in the sun, try Jack Black Lemon & Chamomile Lip Balm with SPF 25 ($7). Enriched with superior skin conditioners and antioxidants, this emollient balm soothes and relieves dry, chapped, irritated lips. Also, unlike waxy sticks, it penetrates quickly to provide instant relief.
