Face moisturizer has been a more recent addition to most men’s grooming routines, but its popularity is soaring, with 54 percent of the men we surveyed telling us that they now moisturize their faces at least somewhat regularly. Since so many of us are novices when it...
Despite what my drunken, albeit convincing, college roommate Jimmy grumbled while shaving off a single eyebrow at exactly 2:36 on a Tuesday morning back in 2015, science shows that brows are our most important facial feature. They help us convey emotions, and according to studies, we recognize...
In the last year, cannabidiol (aka CBD) has been touted as a panacea, able to cure (or at least alleviate) everything from chronic pain to cancer-related symptoms. It’s a belief that cosmetic industrialists are cashing in on: CBD-infused lotions and serums, which promise to relieve acne and...

According to surveys, body grooming is on the rise — and with it, more and more nicks and cuts to our most tender areas. These injuries are unsightly — and painful — so we asked primary care physician Dr. Marc Leavey how to treat the all those...
