We’ve fallen for the New York Smart Shave range for its doctorly endorsements, clean-cut packaging and seemingly simple solutions to perennial shaving problems. Thanks to its founder, Dr Sherwin Parikh, of the Tribeca Skin Centre, the Exfoliating Pads prep the skin perfectly for trouble-free whisker trimming, while the Calming Balm aftershave is another novelty — instead of using the usual quick-fix coolers, like menthol and alcohol, it’s heavy on naturals, such as aloe vera, calendula, witch hazel and green tea.
