The world of men's grooming products can be a daunting one. Do you choose an electric razor or a more analog shave? Should your hair stay naturally shaggy or product'd to perfection? And where do you even start with "manscaping?"

Thankfully, many of the biggest names in grooming have put together several men's grooming kits, which provide everything a man needs for shaving, skincare, or scalp treatments — all in one compact package. From travel-sized samples to help you decide if a particular product is right for you to massive sets that will keep you stocked up in style, men's grooming kits provide a great way to tackle the style struggles of the modern man without your wallet taking too much of a hit.

The Best Men’s Grooming Kits

What to Consider

Size

Men's grooming kits are typically designed to tackle a specific task, be it shaving, skin care, or otherwise. But beyond their broadest stated purpose, there can be finer points to particular kits that can help you decide what's right for you. Some kits are intended to offer small samples of products — usually just an ounce or so — to help you decide if that product is right for you ... at an affordable price point.

Others offer a larger supply of the products, intended to sustain a user for weeks ... or even months. As a result, those looking for a hearty supply may find “sample” kits lacking, while those unsure of whether a particular product is right for them could get saddled with massive tubes that simply take up crucial cabinet space after one or two unsatisfactory uses.

Storage

Often — but not always — grooming kits can come packaged in their own travel bag, perfect for keeping everything in one place, or even tossing in your car or luggage (provided the contained bottles meet TSA requirements, of course). If the grooming kit you choose doesn't come self-contained, be sure you have the storage space to keep the items tidy and organized.

Grooming kits can come in many different shapes and sizes to serve many different purposes. The kits we've collected here range from pocket-sized pouches of simple manicuring tools to morning routine overhauling mega-kits that hook you up with everything from new brushes and combs to manual and electric razors.

Some grooming kits can be a quick fix for a spontaneous trip or an “in case of emergencies” glove compartment companion, while others are a bigger commitment. So, be sure to choose the one that works best not just for your wallet, but for your space and time as well.

Here are seven of the best men's grooming kits on the market today.

Beards came back in a big way for men of the 21st century, with whisker enthusiasts rediscovering styles of facial hair that were first pioneered centuries ago. But since post-war America largely shunned everything except the clean-shaven look (except for some ’70s ’staches, of course), most of us weren’t raised with any knowledge regarding the proper tools for beard maintenance.

That's where the Isner Mile Beard Kit comes in, with everything you need to get that beard you've spent months growing to the next level. One of our testers put this kit through the proverbial ringer and dubbed the Isner Mile “vital for a beard (and life) fully realized.”

Lab Series Skincare for Men Life of the Party Skin Recovery Set

The skincare products from Lab Series can sport a heftier price tag than other brands on the market, and it may be easy for some to say, “I’ll just grab something cheaper at the drug store. What’s the difference?” But anyone who's felt the results of these high-quality skincare serums knows the difference, and they could never go back to some lesser, cheaper brands.

That's especially true of the three restoring compounds in the Life of the Party Skin Recovery Set, which includes their gel cleanser, water lotion, and crucially, their energizing face lotion — all of which will not only help your skin recover from a wild night out, but give you a feeling of freshness and buzz of energy for that usually brutal morning after.
