There's no need for any of that. There's plenty of higher-end grooming products marketed to both men and women, or even gender neutral, that can be purchased nowadays. And yes, if the price point is your greatest concern, it's a factor to consider. But shaving brands for men such as Proraso is great quality for the price point. Why more people settle for brands like Gillette when there are better products on the market at or even lower in price is beyond me.

Can you give me some recommendations?

Depends. Are you looking for the best on the market, or are you looking for quality while still considering price?

If it's not a hassle, tell me both. If it is, then the second option is the one I care more

So if you're talking top shelf, it depends on the nature of the personal care itself. Many of the best brands are often European in origin. Thou depending on the nature of the product, it can very.

When talking shaving cream, there's the top three in the U.K.. St. James of London, Taylor of Old Bond Street, and Truffit and Hill. I recommend Truffit and Hill as they are, in my opinion, the best. They hold a world record for the world's oldest barbershop and until recently had a royal warrant from the British Royal Family.

For soap, you have another British brand known as Molton Brown. They also have a royal warrant and are known best for their body care products like liquid body soap, shampoo, and conditioner. You also have the French body soap brand Pre de Provence, which makes great bars of body soap and some liquid soap at a more reasonable price.

For things like deodorant, things get a bit more tricky. While their are high-end brands that do operate in this business, it's usually not their main line of product. The men's grooming company, Jack Black, is best known for its deoterant. Thou I have to say that the nature of the industry of the product is starting to shift. While maybe not to everyone's liking. Their's a smaller start-up called Helmm that produces and sells refillable men's deoterant, which is the best deoterant product I have ever used.

I will have part-two listed soon.
