: BeautySnob.com : The Dry Assassin

November 6th, 2012

Beauty Snob Blog

For me, a moisturizer is the most important thing between my face and New York City air. My skin drives my crazy, especially in the beginning of fall, when it can’t decide between perspiration and sheer dryness. Recently, I was sent a killer project: a jar of a Billy Jealousy moisturizer called Assassin, and oh, how I love it. Assassin has no scent, goes on thick, yet smooth, and it leaves no residue. As far as I can tell, has really improved my skin, as I’ve had less blemishes than usual, and never feel any dryness throughout the day.

Containing Walnut Seed extract, Teprenone, Sandalwood extract, Barley extract, Avocado oil, and Bisabolol; and lacking parabens, it’s designed to provide nutrients and healthy extracts to moisturizer, firm, and regenerate skin. For a product designed especially for men, it really manages to cover all of your bases.

Available at Billy Jealousy for $30.

Billy Jealousy Whipped Cream

Billy Jealousy Whipped Cream

Whipped cream? I thought they sent me over some shaving supplies. Oh… wait. Billy Jealousy Whipped Cream is not for your pie or your hot chocolate, but for your face. It literally feels like you’re putting culinary whipped cream on your face, which is an interesting change from the run-of-the-mill shave creams out there. However, when applied to a brush it quickly lathers up and stays lathered. No drying out or sloughing off the brush with this stuff.

The jar is massive, and after a few uses I haven’t even made a dent in the supply–it should last around 100 shaves, if not more. This is an incredible value, as it runs around $22, which means you’re looking at less than a quarter per shave, or less. Considering the shave is top notch, that’s pretty awesome.

The cream comes sealed, so you know your first shave will be as fresh as possible. It also has slight tinges of lavender, which is better than the generic soap smell, and it isn’t overpowering to the point of obnoxiousness.

Every time I used the cream it was very unobtrusive, which is exactly what you want. No tugging of the hairs, no mucking up my razor, no stubbornness when you try to wash it off, and most importantly no drying my skin out.

In these product reviews I always try to find something negative to say, but honestly my first review of Billy Jealousy has made this a difficult task. The Billy Jealousy Whipped Cream is absolutely lights out fantastic, and considering its power and size it is one of the best deals in shaving.

Bravo, Billy, bravo.

Lets talk grooming… again. It’s common knowledge that if you do not take care of your skin… well, it will not take care of you. Follow our model’s lead (pictured above) and do yourself a favor and put some effort into your appearance.  It’ll pay off and it’s easier than you think.

:: Let’s start with your body wash (please do not tell me you still are using that questionable, slimy bar of soap!).  Try the ILLICIT Body Wash by Billy Jealousy.  With ingredients like Hemp Seed Oil to soften, smooth and  hydrate your skin, Agave Tequilana Leaf Extract (an herbal moisturizer), Cocamide MEA (a Coconut-derived cleanser and moisturizer) and Vitamin E, your skin will feel refreshed and free of daily grime.

:: Next up, a little face wash. Try the White Knight Gentle Daily Facial Cleanser with Apple Amino Acids to clean and purify your skin, Papaya and Willow Bark Extract to exfoliate dead skin cells and Bergamot, Peppermint, Rosemary, Eucalyptus & Lavender Essential Oils to moisturize and condition skin.

:: Lastly, cap off your routine with the Combination Code Face Moisturizer.  It contains Green Tea, Chamomile and Calendula to help protect skin from environmental and endogenous damages, Aloe Vera to help moisturize the skin, promote skin healing and help restore pH balance and Vitamins A & E to nourish the skin while improving luminosity and elasticity.

Take 5 extra minutes in your day and give your skin a bit of lovin’.  You’ll be thanking me when you turn 35 and have the skin of a 22 year old!

All products are by Billy Jealousy and are available online.

NextLuxury.com Review of Hydroplane Shave Cream

September 6th, 2012

Hydroplane-Shave-Cream-Billy-Jealousy

“Billy Jealousy’s Hydroplane shave cream is quite possibly one of the best shaving creams of the year. It’s a lotion-style shaving cream that doesn’t foam when applied to your skin; instead its texture is more along the lines of a moisturizer. This product is slick and simple, it offers men the right amount of lubricant yet it avoids the typical added oils and moisture. In return this product is great for those with oily or sensitive skin. To apply this shaving cream, moisten your skin with water, and then rub it in like you normally would, and finally shave. With Hydroplane there’s no need to reapply, it refuses to dry and keeps working even without being re-moistened. Its core ingredient is dimethicone; this is a water-based silicone that builds a super-slick barrier on your skin. While shaving you’ll also notice how easily it washes out of your blade, providing for the lowest gunk and grime possible. Even though the product is on the higher end of twenty dollars, the Hydroplane shaving cream speaks for itself. All together, if you’re looking for a shaving cream that offers the right amount of lubrication, irritation protection and nick protection this is it.”
