Create your own reality distortion field.
Still looking for a Halloween costume? Don’t fret. Pay tribute to Steve Jobs by stealing his style. It’s a look most people will immediately recognize. Looking like the father of Apple is an affordable, straightforward process that involves three easy steps: 1) getting the right haircut, 2) proper beard trimming, and 3) finding the right wardrobe.
Step 1: Getting the Right Haircut
Ask your barber to use a “#8” all around (sides, back, and top) with no to very little tapering. Style using Aveda’s Control Paste – this will give your hair a clean, effortless look. Work a small amount into your palms and fingertips then apply using a gentle gliding motion to keep stray and flyaway hair in check.
Step 2: Trimming your Beard Properly
Keep your facial hair sleek and clean. Use an attachment (usually it’s a #2) with your beard trimmer that will leave you with a 1/4″ facial hair length. Your beard should start just below the cheek bone (from the top) and end about 3/4″ above the center of your adam’s apple (no pun intended). After trimming your beard, moisturize your beard and skin with Beta Naturals 100% Pure Argan Oil Moisturizer – an effective, all-natural cruelty-free (Steve would approve) product to soothe your skin and soften your beard.
Step 3: Wear the Right Clothes and Accessories
Unless you’re a purist, you can pull off the Steve Jobs look without having to dip into your savings. With the economy being so unstable, there’s no need to buy a $185 black mock turtleneck from St. Croix. Instead, I suggest picking up a similar top from JC Penney or Sears for around $20. For the pants, break out a pair of stonewash “dad” jeans or Levi’s 501 (Steve’s choice). To complete the wardrobe, put on a pair of New Balance 991 running shoes or comparable 1980s-looking sneakers. Accessorize with round eyeglasses (rimless preferred) and an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad.
Step 4 (optional): Have Fun
Nonchalantly browse an Apple store, solicit photographs outside Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, or start a Steve Jobs flash mob.

Anthony Logistics for Men Oil Free Facial Lotion SPF 15
Anthony Logistics for Men Oil Free Facial Lotion SPF 15 Ingredients List
Overall Rating: ★★★★☆
Price: $$$$ ($30-$40) – Available at Anthony Logistics for Men, Sephora, and Nordstrom.
Scent: Subtle citrus.
I Like: the light texture, refreshing scent, and sun protection.
Not a fan of: the paraben preservatives.
Just because the weather is cooler doesn’t mean the sun’s UV rays aren’t as strong. It’s imperative that we apply a moisturizer with sun protection if we go out during the day. Anthony Logistics for Men’s Oil Free Facial Lotion SPF 15 is a great product for those with normal/combination to oily skin to use in such situations. Though the product claims to be fragrance free, I detected a slight citrus fragrance – it’s quite nice actually. It has a light texture. The lotion does a fine job at moisturizing and providing sun protection without leaving behind a heavy greasy film. If you have extremely oily skin, however, don’t expect this moisturizer to solve your shiny face issues.

Anthony Logistics For Men Oil Free Facial Lotion
Anthony Logistics For Men Oil Free Facial Lotion Ingredients List
Overall Rating: ★★★★☆
Price: $$$ ($20-$30) – Available at Anthony.com, Sephora, and Amazon.
Scent: Very slight hint of citrus.
I Like: the light consistency. This lotion effectively moisturizes without leaving your skin feeling greasy.
Not a fan of: the paraben preservatives.
Anthony Logistics for Men Oil Free Facial Lotion is an ideal moisturizer for those with oily and combination skin. This lightweight lotion hydrates your skin without leaving behind a greasy shine. Though the lotion claims to be fragrance free, it does have a slight citrusy scent. This moisturizer does not provide sun protection – remember to put on a sunscreen to complement it if you plan on going out during the day. I would have given this product five stars if it didn’t contain paraben preservatives. It’s still a reliable non-greasy men’s face moisturizer nonetheless.
