the beauty phile

Getting groomed can mean so much more than a close shave.

BY CART VAUGHN

There are still a few misguided males
who think that primping is merely
women's work. But thanks to a slew of
new hyper-cool men's grooming prod-
ucts, the world has found a way to com-
bat the stereo-
type. Here, three
of the season's
newest medicine-
chest must-haves
for men.

FACE:

Taking cues from
the tried-and-
true barbershop
basic, Anthony
Logistics re-
invents the
'Whisker Lifter

to prepare the beard
for a close, comfortable
shave. The high-gloss
black handled brush has
soft, man-made bristles,
an anti-bacterial coating
to prevent germs and a
bristle head that offers
up a rich, emollient-
packed lather. $80; Lori
Karbal, Birmingham
(248-258-1959; lori-
karbal.com).
