Somersets Grooming for Men Can Keep Dad Looking Good! (review and giveaway)

Disclosure / Disclaimer: I received these products, free of charge, from The Lane Communications Group, for review purposes on this blog. No other compensation, monetary or in kind, has been received or implied for this post. Nor was I told how to post about them.

I can remember my grandfather shaving with a straight razor, razor strap (which served for 3 generations of discipline as well!) and shave cup/brush. When he was much older and had to use an electric razor, he always grumbled about how he couldn't get a 'proper' shave with it!

He was right- the real key to a great shave is how well you prepare your skin for shaving—and that's what Somersets is all about.. Somersets Grooming for Men provides everything a man needs to prepare and care for his face! Treat the guys (and their skin) to Somersets Shaving Oils, Shaving Gels, and Pre- & After-Shave products. 

Unlike chemical foams and soaps, Somersets products are formulated with a proprietary blend of organic essential oils such as Lavender, Tea Tree and Rosemary. These oils lubricate the blade, for a cleaner, closer shave. And their natural healing properties help prevent irritation, while leaving the skin feeling cleaner, refreshed and more alive. And Somersets products do not contain any chemicals that can harm the skin or the environment. 

I had not heard of Somersets before (they were previously only available in Europe), and Dad was quite happy to check out the different products! I have to admit I snuck a couple for shaving my legs too! 


SOMERSETS FROTHY FACE WASH PRE-SHAVE- This gentle wash with American Witch Hazel and organic Aloe Vera will leave your skin clean and fresh. use every day before shaving with any of the gels or oils.  This was is really wonderful even if you aren't shaving!

SOMERSETS EXTRA SENSITIVE NO. 1 SHAVE OIL -With added Rose Hip Seed oil from Chile and Alpha Bisabolol from Brazil to heal razor burn, and provide added protection for those with sensitive skin. One 15ml bottle yields up to 90 shaves and is ideal for travel. Equally great for shaving legs- again I didn't need any oil or lotion afterwards, and I have sensitive skin!

SOMERSETS MAXIMUM GLIDE ENGLISH SHAVING GEL ORIGINAL-

Unlike chemical foams, this cooling shave gel contains a blend of plant extracts - French seaweed algae, Aloe Vera and 100% natural oils - to protect the skin and help reduce razor bumps. There are no soaps which can dehydrate and leave a dry, rough feel.. A hint of menthol leaves your skin feeling cool and refreshed. Seriously- I did NOT need to put ANY oil or lotion on my legs after shaving- ZERO irritation and bumps. I LOVE this gel, as does Dad!

And Somerset hasn't forgotten women like to grab the men's shaving creams, and have formulated 2 for women-

SOMERSETS WOMEN'S EXTRA SENSITIVE SHAVING OIL- You'll be amazed at how your razor glides over your skin, for a close shave without nicks or razor burn. With continued use this unique formulation of natural oils will soften the hair, moisturize your skin and leave you feeling refreshed and silky smooth.
