MR PORTER’s second edit of grooming gear provides the kit to take on every toiletry need and bathroom eventuality, with pieces by Tom Ford Beauty, Baxter Of California and Ren Skincare.

As we noted only last week in our guide to which hair gel you should be using, men’s grooming is now a bounteous field that proliferates with wonderful options. Perhaps too many options. You can’t try everything, right? Right? Perhaps not. Last year, recognising the necessity of playing the field a little, grooming-wise, we at MR PORTER launched our first Grooming Box, conceived as a taster-sized compendium of every grooming product you could feasibly need in your life, but might not know about yet. It was, to understate the whole thing a little bit, something of a success. And so, we come to round two. As with every Hollywood sequel, it’s bigger and even more packed with stuff for you to marvel at. But as with few Hollywood sequels, it’s just as good, if not better than the original. Head on over to the product page to discover the full list of products that’s included in the box, or scroll down to discover our pick of some of the best items included within it that you may not have tried yet.

**Baxter Of California **Exfoliating Body Bar

Yes, your face is the part that most people are going to notice on a day-to-day basis, but good grooming doesn’t stop there, especially as summer approaches and everyone’s arms and legs begin to emerge from hibernation. Use Baxter Of California Exfoliating Body Bar to clear dead skin from such areas, and witness how they will instantly look smoother and feel softer. It’s best to follow this up with a lotion, such as Clinique For Men Broad Spectrum Moisturizer (handily also included in the kit), to avoid post-scrub irritation and dryness.

Ren Skincare Flash Defence Anti-Pollution Mist

And you thought you’d heard of everything. Actually, modern problems (like the inherent dirtiness of most of the crowded cityscapes we live in) require modern products, and Ren has delivered in this respect with its Anti-Pollution Mist. Counteract the aggravating environmental effects (Ren calls it “oxidative stress” of the urban environment by spritzing several times with this refreshing mist, enhanced with zinc and restorative quercetin throughout the day.

Tom Ford Beauty Intensive Purifying Mud Mask

Renowned designer and director Mr Tom Ford is a fan of taking multiple baths in any given day, a scenario which is perfect for the application of this intense, yet refreshing mask. Spread it on and lay to soak, and you will find your skin reinvigorated with moisture and amicably relieved of its excess oils. Just remember to take it off before you hop into your bathrobe. You don’t want to frighten anyone, after all.
