Malin & Goetz : Modern Apothecary Summer Essentials

Transitioning from spring to summer can be difficult on the skin for men and women alike. Luckily, cult men’s line Malin & Goetz has solutions for summer skin problems.

Founded in 2004 by cosmetic industry veteran Matthew Malin and design pro Andrew Goetz, the company effortlessly pairs natural ingredients with legitimate skincare technology. Head to toe, Malin & Goetz have you covered for summer. Boyfriend tested and approved, I can confidently recommend:

Made with 0.5% Grapefruit Extract and Amino Acids, this super invigorating cleanser is appropriate for all skin types thanks to the ph balance.

This oil-free and residue-free sunscreen is great for problem skin types. It contains a skin-soothing combination of Allantoin and Willowherb Extract, which calm the redness and irritation that frequently follow sun exposure. It’s also water resistant, so feel free to get that game of Marco Polo going.

Don’t be emasculated by the shower pouf, boys. Real men do use shower gels.
This refreshing and cooling cleanser contains 2.0% Eucalyptus Extract and Amino Acids. It’s a mild cleanser that gets the job done, leaving skin feeling clean but never tight.

Body scrubs become essential in the summertime, as city grime sticks to the strangest spots on every man’s body. Try this foaming gel scrub which contains 1.5% Peppermint Extract (to invigorate), bamboo & pumice (to exfoliate) and Amino Acids (to retain moisture). For those guys not in the know, regular exfoliation sheds dead skin and stimulates cell renewal. And trust me when I say it’ll make your skin irresistibly touchable to that one special or, er, all the special women in your life.
