Don't think there could possibly be anything more insulting to one's intelligence than lady-focused beauty commercials (sparkles! pink!)?Well, um, have you seen the way they're marketing to dudes lately?? Good God, those commercials are sad. It's as if they assume that all guys think that basic hygiene = turkish bath in the village circa 1982.
The only thing more offensive to me than the concept behind most of the ads, is the visual clutter they take up in my bathroom. I mean, is there some kind of rule that all men's grooming products have to be orange, royal blue or some gradient-heavy combination of both?
Cue the very, very cool, rugged look of Portland General Store's plant-based grooming products. A bit on the pricey side, but just think how much better your medicine cabinet would look to sneaky guests. (I know what you're thinking, and sadly...yes, these are the kind of things I think about.)
And hey, ladies, if you can get over the fact that the products aren't scented "amethyst rain" [the horror! :)] I bet they would work great for us, too. Etsy shop here, and more unisex products are available at Terrain.
