Father’s Day is almost upon us, which means it is time to show the father figures in our lives some much deserved appreciation.
But it can be difficult to find a thoughtful gift to our fathers that really shows how much we love and isn’t just another tie or belt he can add to his endless collection.
That’s why we’ve gathered a list of Father’s Day grooming gift ideas that covers skincare prodcuts to fragrances, body to beard care, so there’s a little something for every father out there.
Skincare
SK-II MEN Moisturising Cleanser
This is a luxurious gift for the most stubborn fathers whose skincare routine only consists of a simple cleanser.
Level up their skincare game by gifting them this SK-II Cleanser that contains their trademarked Pitera essence, a natural bio-ingredient with over 50 micro-nutrients to condition the skin’s natural functions.
He’s sure to love the added menthol that not only thoroughly cleanse his skin of impurities but also leave it feeling refreshed and moisturised.
The SK-II MEN Moisturising Cleanser retails for RM247 at all SK-II counter and on Sephora.
The Body Shop Guarana and Coffee Energising Moisturiser for Men
If your father doesn’t have a skincare routine but has complained that his face feels a little tight and dry, this could be a great way to replenish the hydration in his skin.
Best for father’s who also love their cup of coffee in the morning, the Brazilian guarana and Ethiopian green coffee in this gel-lotion is going to be a lovely wake-up call.
It provides up to 24 hours of moisture, while improving overall skin health. Your father will also love how it’s tested on men and not on animals.
The Body Shop Guarana and Coffee Energising Moisturiser for Men retails for RM82 at all The Body Shop boutiques and Zalora.
The Ordinary The No-Brainer Set
Why should mum be the only one to receive anti-ageing beauty products? This set is perfect for fathers who already have a basic moisturiser and are looking to move to the next level.
This set is really a No-Brainer, as it consists of a hyaluronic acid moisturiser, a retinoid emulsion for combatting wrinkles, and an anti-ageing serum.
Be sure to teach your father which product goes first if he isn’t well-versed in skincare. While you could totally write a short note, it could also be a good bonding activity.
The Ordinary The No-Brainer Set retails for RM235 on Zalora.
Supergoop! PLAY Everyday Lotion with Sunflower Extract Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 50 PA++++
Is your father spending long hours in the sun? Has he been getting considerably tanned lately, or developing a lot of sunspots?
You might want to ensure that he’s applying the proper amount of sun protection on, as harmful ultraviolet rays can damage the skin and cause accelerated ageing and increase the risk of skin cancer.
This is a fast-absorbing, non-greasy, water-resistant, and sweat-resistant sunscreen that can be used on both the face and body.
The Supergoop! PLAY Everyday Lotion with Sunflower Extract Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF50 PA++++ retails for RM268 on Sephora.
Fragrances
Versace Eros Pour Homme Eau De Toilette
Even if your father is new to fragrances, the design of this beautiful blue-green and gold accented perfume bottle alone might win him over.
Decorated with the head of Greek mythological figure Medusa, this EDT is heavily inspired by passion and desire.
It has a fresh, creamy, and woody scent, thanks to its top notes of mint, green apple, and lemon as well as its bottom notes of vanilla, cedar, vetiver, and oakmoss.
The Versace Eros Pour Homme Eau De Toilette retails for RM419 on Sephora.
Calvin Klein CK One Eau De Toilette Spray
For fathers who love minimalist designs, this perfume bottle might be totally up their alley.
This fragrance smells as clean as it looks, thanks to its huge array of fruity top notes, including lemon, bergamot, pineapple, and more.
While this EDT may seem sweet due to its floral middle notes, it has musky base notes to back it up such as cedar, sandalwood, oakmoss, and amber.
The Calvin Klein CK One Eau De Toilette Spray retails for RM342 on Sephora.
Paco Rabanne Phantom Eau De Toilette
If your father loves getting in touch with his inner child, why not spring for this lovely fragrance that’s housed in a bottle that looks like a shiny robot?
Those who love lavender are going to fall hard for this EDT as it is prevalent in the top, middle, and base notes.
Expect citrusy top notes, tangy middle notes, and creamy base notes that altogether make for a rather unique olfactory experience.
The Paco Rabanne Phantom Eau De Toilette retails for RM395 on Sephora.
Ralph Lauren Polo Red Eau De Toilette
When we look at this classic perfume bottle, we think expensive red sports cars and classic Hollywood carpets.
Your father can enjoy the opening notes of cranberry, grapefruit, and Italian lemon as well as the middle notes of floral saffron and sage.
This scent can be described as mature yet not too overwhelming especially when it dries down to its amber, coffee, and woodsy base notes.
The Ralph Lauren Polo Red Eau De Toilette retails for RM385 on Sephora.
Body
Manja Skin Café Latte / Loofah Soap / Orange Poppyseed Natural Handmade Body Soap Set
Pamper your father with a set of body soaps that’ll help buff out some of his rough edges due to its naturally exfoliating ingredients like coffee grounds and poppyseeds.
All three soaps are scented differently, ranging from creamy coffee to lovely jasmine and rose to invigorating citrus.
We’re particularly in love with the orange poppyseed soap as its got moisturising goats milk in the formula as well as lemon essential oil to reduce pigmentation.
The Manja Skin Café Latte / Loofah Soap / Orange Popyseed Natural Handmade Body Soap set retails for RM55 on Zalora.
The Olive Tree Lavender Bergamot Hand & Body Wash and Body Lotion Set
Does your father have skin that’s a little on the dry side? Here’s a set that will help keep his skin soft, smooth, and protected.

Baylis & Harding Fuzzy Duck Cedarwood & Wild Sage Shower Gel
If your father is in love with vintage-looking bottles, we really have to recommend this shower gel that’s designed to resemble an old whisky bottle.
It even comes in a retro tin packaging that really sells the idea of how fancy it is, he might even do a double take while opening this gift.
As for its aroma, this has warm and earthy tones of cedarwood and wild sage that will leave him feeling invigorated throughout the day.
The Baylis & Harding Fuzzy Duck Cedarwood & Wild Sage Shower Gel retails for RM120 on Zalora.
Joi Mini Natural Deodorant Set
We only recommend this if your father is already one to wear deodorant, as we can imagine how it might accidentally cause offence!
Formulated with aloe vera leaf juice, baking soda, prebiotics, and magnesium hydroxide, these deodorants neutralise odour-causing bacteria while moisturising the skin.
There are four different scents in this set: lavender and bergamot, rose and geranium, eucalyptus and mint, and cypress and sandalwood.

How it works is that it uses a concentrated panthenol-powered and soy-powered formula to cleanse hair and body in one go with no build-up or dryness.

We have a perfect gift for all those clean-shaven fathers out there, and it is this titanium and stainless-steel trimmer with five interchangeable attachment heads and five different combs.
What we like about this product is the charging and storage stand as you don’t have to have the trimmer just lying about. One full charge allows for up to 30 minutes of cordless use.
You can also have peace of mind as it has three years of warranty and is certified with local authority approval like ST and SIRIM.
