The team behind Portland England sail, surf and swim and know first hand the damaging effect the sea and weather can have on your skin. Using the most hostile environment as their testing ground, they have created a range with hydration at its core, resulting in an exceptional skincare range that best prepares men for the day head, battling force 8 gales or boardroom storms.
With a desire to push the boundaries of men’s skincare, friends and co-founders Misa Zahar and Bella Middleton introduced the science found in women's products to men's skincare, creating innovative products which feed and help to hydrate the skin whilst cleansing, moisturising and protecting it before, during and after shaving. Combining their joint experience of men's grooming and menswear to Portland England, they have ensured that each bespoke formulation is a sensitive marriage of advanced science and natural ingredients; safe, effective and proven to work.
Portland has a firm belief brands should manufacture in a more responsible way. They therefore make their products in Britain in small batches so that they can maintain tight quality controls over the production process. Each product is made and packaged by hand, then checked and re-checked to make sure that each component is perfect; from each formulation, each bottle, to each handmade Italian leather cap. They, like us, believe that attention to detail and quality are vital; it's what makes the difference between being average and exceptional and Portland England is exceptional.
The Active Aftershave from Portland England is our choice of the series. Everything about this product is thought through, from the matte touch bottle to the hand crafted Italian leather cap and elegant, bespoke packaging let alone how great this stuff smells!
Available now at Mancave London.
