We recently received a book written by Chris Salgardo, the president of  Kiehl's (which includes some of the many products we've come to love at ManPossible).  He published a book called MANMADE: The Essential Skincare & Grooming Reference for Every Man.  As the author and title suggest, the book is about... grooming with a Twenty-First-Century man in mind.  ​

Style doesn't have to be rocket science.  It should be a part of your, everyday!  MP recently ran across ‘7 steps to be stylish’ on ShopWithStyle.com.  The steps were primarily for the other 50%...  So naturally, we wanted to modify that to be appropriately ManFitting.

STOP!  Stop whatever you’re doing (unless you’re reading articles on ManPossible)!  Take this moment of stillness and engage that brilliant brain of yours. 

When was the last time you felt at ease?

Don’t answer that question just yet.  Keep on reading…

Throw back Thursdays!  Way back Wednesdays!  Flashback Fridays!  We love bringing back these (sometimes cheesy) favorites from the past for one reason… nostalgia!  It’s our instant gateway to the best of times, memories, and awesomeness.  So why are we talking about these?  ManPossible recently got re-introduced to a timeless classic way of shaving via MicroTouch One - Classic Safety Razor. 

So the word on the street is that Tom Cruise is at it again with the Mission: Impossible franchise.  The entertainment industry has given Tom some high praises as he returns to the role of Ethan Hunt in Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation.

I was cruising along the open road.  This being your typical SoCal summer weather, the temperature was somewhere in the mid 80s.  Evidently the radiant heat circling around me didn’t faze me one bit.  No sir!  There wasn’t a worry in the world that would ruin my day!  I was in a 1993 “Classic Red” Mazda Miata, with the top down and my hair trailing behind me.  For those of you who missed “The Crisis Is Real”, well lets just say the crisis is REAL! 

We all have our weaknesses.  It varies from person to person.  But perhaps the most common kryptonite among bros is hair loss aka male pattern baldness.  

Mid-life crisis, quarter-life crisis, call it whatever you want to call it.  The bottom-line:  there is a crisis!  By our definition, a life crisis is a disturbance and imbalance of the time - space continuum.  Simply put, a person has come to the realization that he or she has hit a roadblock in life that challenges the foundation of ones purpose for existence.  Being that we are dealing with a crisis, let us get right to it.

For those of you who don’t know, I received my first shaving razor blade during the Christmas of 2013.  Since then, I have completely moved away from electric shavers.  Through my experience, I’ve found the conventional (blade) razor to be a superior shaving tool over the electric shavers.  Although I’m sure this still remains a much debatable subject, I personally find the traditional device more nimble, versatile and often, a much closer experience - literally!

It's starting to get warm and hopefully this means spending more time in the sun.  We wrote an article about the importance of safekeeping your skin from those harmful UV rays... here's one of our favorite from the past - "Burn Baby Burn, Should Only Be For The Disco Floor".  Enjoy!

Ever find yourself lost, frustrated or simply stressed?  When that happens, what is your first instinct?  Do you hop in your car and go for a drive, stuff your face with food, or call up some friends to hangout?  In addition to your go to fast fix, we at ManPossible would like to propose a healthier and more productive alternative:  Grooming Therapy!

Ladies and gentlemen, today we are going to talk about change.  No, we are not talking about nickels and dimes.  We are talking about the act of stepping outside your comfort zone and taking an uncomfortable action not usually done.

Yours truly recently decided to forego the comfort of a secure job [McDonald’s] to pursue an opportunity in which I am not certain of the outcome [Taco Bell].  The decision was a tough one, but it was certainly one that had to be made.  I am not sure about everyone else, but the thought of constant repetition and the lack of challenge drives me crazy!  So, I’m going to attempt to make the case as to why we should at least experience something new once in a while.

Gents.  I’m sure you’ve been in a situation where you forgot a grooming product at home or simply forgot to pick up something during your last grocery store visit.  Perhaps you were traveling and you didn’t realize you were missing a something…  What did you do?  Well, one of MP’s sr. bloggers, yours truly, had such a moment and I’m here to share my grooming hack.

When it comes to confessions, the best way to do it is to get straight to the point.  Brace yourselves… 

“I have a foot fetish!”

In our past articles, we referenced that men secretly gravitate towards female grooming products and brands; from feminine body wash products to wearing (your girlfriend’s) skinny jeans.  Most of us (guys) are often a bit ashamed and feel guilty of secretly enjoying these “practices”.  Let’s face it, men also want to look good and feel great!   There’s nothing wrong with that.  The only logic we can think of is that our society believes that men have a higher tolerance for shitty products.  Guess what society?  You are WRONG!!!!  Try wiping your butt with recycled toilet paper, then come back and tell us that all toilet paper is created equal!!!... [editor’s note - easy, I’m sensing a bit of passion here].

Cheers!  Salud!  Cin Cin!  Kanpai!

Welcome to another addition of ManPossible awesomeness!

Today we are going to discuss a topic near and dear to my heart:  Grooming and Alcohol.  Yes Sir.  Grooming and Alcohol!

We’re about to close out 2014 and ring in 2015, so ManPossible is here to offer you a few tips to make sure NYE goes great!   

Not you if you’re man enough to make it this far into the vineyard with us!  Your reward is to learn about Cabernet Sauvignon, the manliest of all winemaking grape varietals out there.  Think of it as the “King of the Reds.”
