Gifts for Dad

Father's Day is just around the corner - remember your favorite Dad (or Dads!) with personal care products from Creative Notions!

Bay Rum is a C.O. Bigelow original scent that's been around since 1907, and is still very popular today. B ay Rum Cologne has that classic, spicy, masculine scent that made this original formula so famous. It blends bay oil, citrus, and spices to create a warm, exotic scent. Bay Rum After Shave Balm takes that same warm scent and combines green tea, aloe vera, cucumber, chamomile, grape seed extract and shea butter in a soothing balm that helps calm and cool your skin after shaving. Both the Cologne and After Shave Balm are 3.4 ounces, and come in heavy, smokey-rum colored glass bottles, and faux distressed cartons that give it a very unique and impressive look - great for gift giving.

Make it a gift set! Add C.O. Bigelow Bay Rum Hair and Body Wash to your order and give dad a Father's Day gift that he's sure to remember!

Also try Bigelow Barber Foaming Shave Gels and After Shave Balm. Elixir Black blends exotic agar wood and tonka bean with undertones of amber, musk and vanilla. Elixir Red combines lush spices, sandalwood and red currant notes with velvet fig leaves. Elixir Blue features watery marine notes, lavender and rosemary with hints of clean white musk and wood undertones. Elixir Green mixes crisp, lush herbaceous notes with warm amber, musk and elegant woods. All of the Elixir Shave Gels are formulated for a close, comfortable shave and include Aloe Vera and Coconut Oil to help shield against irritation and razor bumps and cuts. For sensitive skin, try Bigelow Barber Sensitive Skin Formula Shave Gel. It's the same great shave gel as the Elixir products, but with Aloe Vera and Chamomile extract to give skin extra protection while shaving. It also contains NO fragrance, which can irritate sensitive skin.

Finally, be sure to complete Dad's gift set with C.O. Bigelow Barber No. 1200 After Shave Balm. It's a lightweight balm that contains healing aloe vera and cooling, calming extracts to soothe skin and promote the healing of minor nicks and cuts.
