For the Guys: Maca Root from The Body Shop

 
It happens to the best of them — first, they dab on a little of your eye cream. Next, they're using your high-end shaving foam. And before you know it, they're dipping into your expensive anti-wrinkle serum.

Thankfully there are more and more manly grooming products out there, so he can keep his paws off your side of the medicine cabinet. The latest is The Body Shop's For Men Maca Root Range of skincare and shaving products. He'll be chuffed to know that his face protector ($12), shaving oil ($10), exfoliating scrub ($14) and more are all infused with the Peruvian maca root, famous for its energizing properties. It's also known as "Peruvian Viagra," a stamina-boosting "libido lifter."

And while it's not clinically proven that slapping on some Razor Relief face balm ($14) will put him in the mood, maca root is rich in minerals and includes such skin-smoothing ingredients as Brazil nut oil from Peru, sesame seed oil from Nicaragua and soothing aloe vera from Guatemala.
