>>> It’s not always about getting older, but it’s how you age. Let’s face it, in today’s society men have grown to become more and more aware of their appearance. From hair to personal style, men are becoming conscious, which is important. Now take all those concerns and put the physical aging process in the mix.

There’s no way to stop aging unfortunately, but we’ve got 3 rules to help the process be a smooth transition. I mean realistically, who doesn’t want to look younger?

USE A DAILY MOISTURIZER

GET A GOOD EYE CREAM

INVEST IN A NIGHT SERUM

The sooner you add this to your regimen the better (and a greater final payoff).

Moisturizing will keep your skin soft and hydrated, which shaves off the appearance of lines, wrinkles, and blemishes.

Because of the delicate area around the eye, for some this is the most common area to show signs of aging.

The optimum time for the body to repair itself is between 11pm and 3am, making night a particularly good time to use rejuvenating creams or serums.

A lightweight, gel-lotion formula that minimizes the appearance of visible lines, wrinkles, skin discolorations while restoring skin tone, firmness and elasticity.

Infused with caffeine, antioxidant vitamins and seaweed extract, this product immediately minimizes puffiness and dark circles while also reenergizing.

>>> Beards have been a sign of masculinity, power, or even social status for centuries. As the trend has risen within the past couple of years to grow beards in the men’s grooming world, a lot of responsibility now comes along with this. Given the technology and products to help maintain our furry faces, the amount of beard care is endless! But we were able to catch up with one brand, The Barba, who gave us insight on everything you need to know about growing and maintaining your beard (the right way).

DH: WHEN CREATING A NEW PRODUCT AND/ OR SCENT, WHAT IS IT THAT YOU LOOK TO FOR INSPIRATION? TB: Julian and I come from a creative background and with that comes having the skills to learn how to get inspired. We get inspired so quickly, especially by brands who are not in the grooming business and we see how well executed their product is and we learn from them a lot. We love the concept of “less is more” when we see the message in matter of seconds, that is all we need and we are sure our clients appreciate the simplicity and clean approach to our brand that is what we like to get inspired from, we take a day to travel to museums and art events just to get our muse and once we see something we just start having a vision of our product line.

DH: MOISTURIZING IS KEY DURING THE COLDER MONTHS, WHICH ONE OF YOUR BEARD OILS WILL DO THE TRICK FOR THAT?

DH: WHAT IS THE COMMON MISTAKE YOU’VE SEEN WITH GUYS TRYING TO GROW THEIR BEARD AND WHAT CAN THEY DO TO CORRECT THIS? TB: A common mistake we have noticed is a lot of guys feel they need a full beard to grow one, so they get discouraged and end up shaving, then, regret they shaved. Just be patient, don’t aim for a particular “beard look” each one of us have a different rate, look, texture of facial hair, you need to embrace it and have your barber make the best of it.

DH: HOW IMPORTANT IS MOUSTACHE WAX? IS IT A NECESSITY? TB: We believe that in order to have a successful looking beard, every man should style and take care of their mustache as well because beards and mustaches work together. Mustache wax is very important because it keeps the facial hair in place and its great to style the mustache.

DH: WHEN STARTING YOUR COMPANY, WHAT KEY COMPONENTS

WERE YOU FOCUSED ON WHEN DIFFERENTIATING YOURSELF FROM OTHER BEARD GROOMING BRANDS? TB: One key component our brand focuses on is diversity.

We wanted to focus on every type of man and texture of facial hair. We felt that many brands out there weren’t providing beard products for other groups such as black and Latino etc.... Coming from New York we realized this was very important. Another attribute that makes us different is our simple, elegant and modern design on our products.

DH: WHICH PRODUCT IS A MUST IN YOUR SHAVING REGIMEN IN ORDER TO AVOID RAZOR BUMPS OR IRRITATION? TB: One of the products we recommend for men to avoid razor bumps and irritation is our Corte Pre-shave oil. Corte ingredients such as Castor oil provide a smooth layer to avoid razor bump while shaving. The Aloe Vera oil will prevent irritation and speeds wound recovery. Corte Preshave also works as an aftershave; it reduces inflammation and skin irritation.

DH: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A BEARD OIL AND PRESHAVE OIL? TB: The difference is that beard oil is to maintain and take care of the beard while Pre-shave oil is used as a shave lotion. They both have different ingredients.

H |

TB: We recommend to begin your beard growth around the months of October and November, depending on the speed of the growth, some men takes a few months to get that full beard and some might take them 3 weeks. But in between those two months are perfect to begin to grow your beard in time for the colder months.

TB: Fortunately, all of our beard oils contain organic ingredients to keep the skin under the facial hair moisturized. One of the ingredients is Jojoba oil which is perfect for the hair and skin, specially during the winter and beard growth when your facial hair takes all the natural skin oil in order to continue to grow, our beard oils replace the dryness for a more hydrated skin and hair.

DH: WHEN GROWING YOUR BEARD, AT WHAT POINT SHOULD YOU START IN ORDER TO GET A GOOD GRADE GROWN IN TIME FOR THE COLDER MONTHS?

EATTLE Seattle may have a dreary perception, but the Emerald City has a lot more to offer than rain, fleece jackets and of course the Space Needle.

The town has a wide-ranging art scene that includes the Seattle Art Museum, Olympic Sculpture Park and a property that showcases Dale Chihuly’s glass creations. Despite its super-casual, outdoorsy reputation, Seattle is home to hip and high-end clothing boutiques, in neighborhoods from Ballard to Capitol Hill to downtown. And with food being practically part of their religion, it would be almost a sin to not engage in their Asian-fusion movement as well as well as their farm-totable scene. This treasure of the Pacific Northwest is compact, so you can reach anywhere by foot, taxi or boat.

Seattle’s 4th hotel in the Kimpton Chain, The Palladian Hotel brings a touch of quirkiness where you’ll find colorful furnishings, including paintings and pillows with famous faces like Jimi Hendrix or Kelsey Grammar, grafted onto Napoleon-era Russian generals (all done by local artist Julie Coyle). The 97room boutique property is housed in building built in 1910, but with the little facelift that was given, the dark walls with gold accents and exposed metal beams give it a more modern industrial approach. Expect claw-footed tubs inside a room-sized tiled shower, or a TV resting on a custom-made artists’ easel.

A small town kid with big city dreams seems like a cliché saying for most success stories, but not for denim guru Donwan Harrell, founder of luxury denim brand PRPS. With his passion and love for comics and vintage cars, one would think that the two areas would never cross paths in a fashion driven society. But it was his impeccable illustration skillset that led him to land jobs at Robert Graham (formally known as Robert Stock), DKNY and Nike for over 8 years until developing his own line in 2002. Also attending drag races with his father as a young child were just only parts to the foundation of his global brand. But with his educational background from VCU and experience through Chambre Syndicale, he received his moms blessing who felt that he should do what was natural

aunts working for OshKosh B’Gosh, so I was always surrounded by extra bulks of fabric at the house and just got involved with it. It became pretty natural and that’s what I decided to do for a living.

DH: Aside from fashion, what was another interest of yours?

D

DH: I was a huge avid comic book reader! I was always redesigning the uniforms of all the superheroes I had collected, you know doing my own variations of the uniforms.

Originally, I wanted to be a comic artist but thank god I didn’t go in that direction because a lot of those guys aren’t in business or making much anymore because video games took over that genre.

DH: Was moving to New York apart of the action

DH: Did you feel there was need for another denim brand in the market?

DH: I remember seeing a pair Citizen of Humanity jean in Florida on a young lady and when I saw that, I was thinking there were no men’s jeans of that caliber and this was in 1999. By 2002 is when I hit stores, but at that time there was only Diesel and Lucky Jeans. There wasn’t much else outside of that.

Diesel was very good, but they weren’t using Italian or Japanese fabrics. Lucky was one of those LA brands that were very commercial washes.

I wanted to do something more characteristic based on vintage, because being in Japan at that time I spent a lot of time learning and studying and understanding vintage concepts and utilized that as a springboard for washed developments as a line and that’s where PRPS developed its stem from.

DH: What were some challenges you faced along the path of trying to start your brand?

DH: I am faced with challenges everyday, but my biggest was transitioning my Japan collection to developing a goods line because I was always delivering to an inception of better stores. And what I mean better stores I mean the Ron Hermans, the Fred Seigals, the Barneys and Bergdorfs and to create a line that was going to be a spinoff but with out harming the

DH: Who is your ideal customer?

DH: Ryan Gosling would be my ideal guy! He’s like the new Steve McQueen to me.

DH: What are some of your thoughts on today’s brands?

Any one in particular you like (aside form your own) DH: To come out with a denim brand today, is no easy task so more power to them. They’re swimming with sharks, it’s like how do you separate yourself from the others. You have the H&M’s and Zara’s coming out with Japan fabrication at $49.99, how do you compete? You know.

But fortunately, today we live in a brand hungry environment. It’s the one way a company like mine has an advantage.

DH: What sets your brand apart from the other denim brands?

DH: I’m a firm believer that a good painting starts with a canvas and ours starts with the denim, the quality. We use exclusive Japanese denim from 2 of the best denim mills in Japan. We’re not going to use 2nd tier or 3rd tier denim mills within our line. A lot of the character on the exterior of jeans is hand done. To replicate the kind of detail we’re going for, it has to be all hand done.

2 pairs are not going to be the same, they’ll all have different subtle nuances.

Don’t be lazy and don’t do the whole measure the waist around your neck. Number 2, make sure when you put the jean on, it fits snug and that you can fit 1 finger in the waist.

If you’re looking for 100% cotton, it’s going to expand a little bit. Number 3, when you go to the dry cleaner to get it hemmed; don’t ask for the same original hem. Just tell them to do a ¼ of a hem single stitch with the same color thread. Number 4, make sure you get a jean that’s been singed and what I mean is that there jeans that have a white hairy film, that’s unsinged.

There’s a gas that’s used to burn off the film. Unsinged is more pure. But guys should get a signed, because it’ll take longer to get through. Last, don’t feel prone to wash your jeans on a regular. They were not designed to be washed.

What happens, the indigo will start to fade and it’ll then it’ll start to look flat. If it starts to collect an odor, Febreeze it.

DH: Where do you see the brand going in the next 5 years?

DH: I would like to think within the next year go into licensing.

Also go back into womens and develop kids.

DH: What are some things guys need to look for in purchasing a good pair of denim?

H

DH: There are a few things.

Number 1 is to try the jean on!

|

DH: Well out of college, there were only two places to go if you wanted to be in fashion and that is New York or Paris.

I had no intention of being at that level in fashion because all you hear were horror stories of how you would be slaving away at these companies.

original. Thus far we’ve done a really successful job with regards to differentiating the product and the name and the character of the line. But each season its very touch and go.

An iconic piece in men’s fashion is of course the velvet blazer a.k.a “The Smoking Jacket”.

Whether you’re smoking or not, this jacket is to be sported for a more formal occasion like dinner parties, masquerade engagements and especially for New Year’s Eve shindigs. Mostly in a plush velvet fabric the additive details can arrange from embroidery, embellishments and color contrast lapels (some all three). But try to keep it simple for the most part, but if you’re feeling a little confident then why not take it to another level. But remember to let the jacket do the talking. Choose a color that compliments one of these three; Your skintone, your shirt or your shoes. Keep the trousers black, ALWAYS. Although, fancy fabrics call for a little more dollar signs, we found a few selections that’ll get you through the night just fine and not worrying about the overdraft fee.
