GQ Grooming Awards Highlights
Winner: Best New Hair Styling Product - House 99 Change it Up Styling Clay
The winner of the best new hair styling product, the House 99 Change It Up Styling Clay is an extremely useful hair product which should easily slot in to most men's hair care routine. Reworkable, with a matte finish, it adds volume, control, and remouldable style which looks and feels natural in the hair.
Highly Commended: Best New Hair Styling Product - Hanz De Fuko Heavymade
The Heavymade Hair Pomade from Hanz De Fuko is an extreme hold styling wax with high shine, allowing you to create flexible looks that resist humidity and don't lose their grip throughout the day. Its high shine lends itself best to those attempting to create slick looks like pompadours, for example.
Winner: Best New Eye Treatment - Bulldog Skincare for Men Age Defence Eye Roll-On
The Age Defence Eye Roll-On from Bulldog Skincare for Men is a calming eye gel designed with a roll-on applicator, ensuring precise, even coverage, which helps to completely avoid irritation of the eyes. Hailed as a 'perfect antidote after a night out' by the judges, we're certain that you're going to love it.
Winner: Best New Suncare - Lab Series Day Rescue Defense Lotion SPF35
This ultra-hydrating sun lotion from Lab Series is lightweight, offering maximum comfort, while imparting an SPF of 35. If you're wearing sun cream year-round (the most effective way to fight skin ageing), there are few products that compare for this purpose.
Highly Commended: Best New Facial Cleanser - Aesop In Two Minds Facial Cleanser
The In Two Minds Facial Cleanser is a mild, gel based face wash which works to thoroughly cleanse skin without stripping moisture and leaving it feeling dry. Characteristically of Aesop, making use of luxurious naturally derived ingredients, it's rejuvenating, refreshing, and we're certain you'll be using it every day.
Highly Commended: Best New Moisturiser: Maximum Hydrator Activated Water Gel by Clinique for Men
A gentle, extremely lightweight formula which imparts long lasting moisture to the skin, its unique Liquid Sphere Technology works to break the cycle of dryness, meaning your skin feels nourished and looks great long after use.
Highly Commended: Best New Shaving Product - Baxter of California Shave Tonic
The Baxter of California Shave Tonic is designed to extract the maximum benefits out of its natural ingredients: rosemary, eucalyptus, spearmint and menthol. Calming, nourishing, and soothing, it's the perfect thing to quell irritation after shaving.
