Monroe of London

Grooming essentials for the discerning gentleman

Monroe of London  is a quintessentially British  men's skincare range designed for men, by men. Born out of a passion for high quality products that are beautifully and faultlessly designed, this collection of dual-purpose products and skincare essentials are as hardworking as they are stylish.

All of the products within the range have been handcrafted in the UK and have been developed in collaboration with the Harley Street Skin Clinic to ensure efficacy. The brand was developed by founders Luke and Gareth who wanted to create a brand that all men can use. Having each spent 20 years immersed in fashion photography, they were exposed to an industry focused on image and looking good. Taking an egalitarian approach, Luke and Gareth have decided to bring that focus out from behind the lens to share with like minded men in Britain and beyond.

Products within the range that I tried included: 

• Hair & Body Wash (30ml)
• Cleanser & Shave Solution (30ml)
• Exfoliator & Pore Minimiser (60ml)
• Moisturiser SPF 20 & Shave Balm (30ml)

​I loved all of the products, especially the pore minimiser, which helped reduced the appearance of large pores on my nose. Best of all, the dual purpose products are great for travelling, which means less toiletries to pack -  handy when it comes to most airlines' strict liquid allowances.  All of the products had a neutral fragrance (apart from the cleanser, which has a nice, peppermint fragrance), which will be welcomed by those who don't like heavily scented products.

For a simple regime that's easy to stick to (and looks great on your bathroom shelf, too), you can't go wrong with any of the Monroe of London products.
