One cosmetics for two - sounds, of course, menacing, but in a crisis it is quite economical, and in some cases it is also very useful. We will tell you what funds can be divided for lovers in order to save budget and preserve beauty.
Facial cleanser
Most often they have a universal composition and are suitable for use by both women and men. In addition, if we take specialized male lines, then in some ways they can be even more useful than female ones. Often in cleansers for the faces of a strong half of humanity, you can find various soothing and anti-inflammatory ingredients, because the boyfriend needs not only to rid the skin of impurities, but also to prepare it for shaving. And, if for men such a formula is a necessity, then for us it is a pleasant bonus.
Acne cream
Everything is elementary here. Both women and men can suffer from the appearance of various skin rashes. You will still have to treat them with the same remedy. So why then buy several products at once when you can limit yourself to one?
Hair styling products
Here, of course, you could argue that your boyfriend is unlikely to have a root volume spray or a super moisturizing hair mask based on argon oil, but that's not what we are talking about. Let's say that styling mousse will definitely come in handy for both. Moreover, such products are most often gender neutral, which means that too masculine scent of mousse may not bother you. Shampoos and hair balms can also be taken from the boyfriend's bath shelf, there you can also look at various styling pastes and creams. The latter will perfectly highlight the strands, pacify dry ends and give the same root volume.
Shaving cream
Well, here, it seems, you can do without prompts, you already know what to do with it. However, we will go a little deeper into the details. The shaving foam for women is made specifically for the body, while the man's foam is for the face. Accordingly, the formula of the latter is much softer, less allergenic and contains fewer harmful substances. Therefore, we take!
Lip balm
Also another tool that is included in the category of universal. The composition is almost always the same, there is no difference for the sexes, the only question is who will take this balm from whom. Women seem to have a couple of "hygienics" hidden in each pocket, but men's pockets can hardly boast of such a variety. But this is fixable.
Deodorant
Men's deodorants aren't as sweet and cloying as women's deodorants, and that's the first plus. The second advantage is that they are much more persistent, so they can withstand much more physical activity than the female versions.
Beard & Mustache Oil
If your boyfriend has a beard (read also: "So as not to prick: what you need to know about a man's beard"), and he is one of those fetishists who go to barbershops and recognize extremely dangerous razors, then he probably has a couple of excellent beard oils or waxes. Use them to moisturize dry ends and when styling.
Shower gel
Here's something, but this tool is definitely worth halving. It doesn't make the slightest sense to buy several bottles at once and put them on the bathroom shelf with a battery. One remedy will be more than enough. Just be sure to choose a scent that will appeal to both.
Perfume
This is especially true of various niche fragrances, which, as a rule, they are produced unisex. Note also that men's colognes often reveal themselves very beautifully and extraordinarily on women's skin. Worth a try. I wonder if he will notice that you smell the same?
