Nail polish is no longer the sole territory of women, and hasn’t been for a long time. Hollywood has embraced men and nail art for many years, and this shows no sign of slowing. Jared Leto, Johnny Depp, and Brad Pitt all love a decent man-icure, and wear their polish with pride – good on them, I say.
So, today I’m looking at men’s manicure sets. My recent purchase of a home tool kit for DIY highlights the main difference between men’s and women’s manicure sets.
The tool kit designed for ladies was pink, girly and lightweight, perfect for our delicate hands to wield (ggggrrrrrr), whilst the men’s was butch and tough looking. Needless to say, I chose the manly kit – that’s just how I roll. It’s the same with manicure sets. Ours are prettily feminine, whereas the men’s sets contain solid, heavy duty clippers and rugged files that would, obviously, be far too heavy and strong for us fragile women to use!

What Makes it Great

Where it Could be Improved
I think the only improvement would be if the whole set were monogrammed!

2) Hunwoo 18 Piece Men’s Grooming Kit
What Makes it Great
Hunwoo have created a complete male grooming kit. Made of high quality stainless steel, the kit includes a range of nail clippers and files, nose hair scissors, blackhead remover, and a neat little eyebrow razor. All ergonomically designed with comfort and ease of use in mind, the kit comes in its own durable, elegant and safety conscious push button, leather case.
Where it Could be Improved
Given the fact that the tools inside the case are super sharp, I can forgive Hunwoo for making it tricky to open. Advertised as pop open, this is a slight lie, and it’s more like push, slide and then pop open, but it prevents kids getting in and hurting themselves.

Where it Could be Improved
To be honest, I just want the image of an ‘ear spoon’ removed from my mind. This kit includes one, and I’m feeling a tad icky now.
