Fathers Day

Not being a man, I find it hard to buy for them.  Even when I think I've found the perfect gift, turns out I just ended up finding something I'd like to see them in or have them try.  So, to avoid feeling selfish and like an unattentive daughter, I have hit the streets in search of what dad's REALLY want.

Surprisingly enough, many men have started to take better care of their skin. Either its the sweeping epidemic of the metro lifestyle, or men have just started to hear our suggestions, regardless its good news.  Problem is, although our lads are finally on board, they don't really know where to start.  One brand that truly captures the straight forward male mentality is Bread and Butter skincare.  This line was created specifically with men in mind, "Everything a man needs and nothing he doesn't" is B&B's moto. 

Although this Canadian company is still in its infancy , Brian Lau the founder of Bread and Butter, is an old pro.  Working for companies such as Dove, Aveda, and Burts Bees, this man knows his cosmetics!  He first launched his own brand in 2009, and I was lucky enough to be one of his students during this exciting time. As if starting your own business isn't hard enough, Lau teaches Cosmetic Marketing at Humber College.  And as he taught us about creating a concept, grasping our target market, and creating our "Reasons to Believe" Lau is living proof that hard work and a great idea, is all you need to become a success.
