Marvis Strong Mint Mouthwash Concentrate
This petite glass bottle may be dwarfed by your jumbo plastic jug of mouthwash, but this concentrated formula (designed to be diluted with water) undoubtedly packs the same punch. Hailing from Italy — the land of garlic and espresso — this potent, peppermint-flavored rinse freshens breath and fights tooth decay via xylitol and propolis extract.

Founded in 1792 , this Tokyo-based brand is famous for its knives, but over the past two centuries the company has also taken the classic nail clipper to the next level. Made of blackened steel, this tool features an extra sharp blade, a file for smoothing, and a plastic case to catch clippings so your bathroom stays spotless.

Penhaligon's Savoy Steam Eau de Cologne
Meet the grown-up and sophisticated counterpart to your beloved middle school body splash. Lighter than a standard perfume, this refreshing cologne laced with eucalyptus, rosemary, and white cedar is inspired by the swanky steam room at the iconic Savoy Hotel in London. No matter which side of the pond you're on, freshen up by grazing the glass stopper down your neck and across your décolletage post-shower.

H2O+ On the Move Body Butter Stick
Nothing ruins a self-scape faster than lotion'y fingerprints on your prized products or mirror. This mess-free stick, loaded with rich coconut seed butter and zesty lemon peel oil, might look like deodorant at first glance, but it can be swiped anywhere you need a quick hit of long-lasting moisture.
