Let’s be honest; Father’s Day is a toughie. While Mother’s Day is a chance to shower Mom with the little luxuries of life (perfume! spa treatments! jewelry!), Dad’s gifts usually err on the side of boring and basic. There are only so many ties and grill sets a man can use. If you’re looking for a new idea, here’s a good one: Why not get Dad’s grooming routine up to speed with luxe shaving sets, fancy skincare (yes, he needs it too!), and fresh scents? He’ll thank you each time he uses it, and with the cost being reasonable (say around $25-$75) a gift of grooming may be your best idea yet.

Here are the top picks for Father’s Day Beauty Gifts this year:

FATHER’S DAY GIFTS FOR THE WORLD TRAVELER: The Men’s Tool Kit from Greek company Korres is for the jet-setter who only travels in style. When he’s not on the road, these sleek looking, mini-versions of their best-sellers–Absinthe Shave Cream, Marigold & Ginseng Aftershave Balm, Juniper and Rum Little Shower Gel, Ruscus & Chestnut Eye Cream, and Magnesium & Wheat Protein Shampoo—elevate a basic bathroom to a five star spa.

FATHER’S DAY GIFTS FOR THE HIPSTER: A fragrance that celebrates his individual style is spot on for this downtown dad/dude. Try Diesel Only The Brave Eau de Toilette Spray, a provocative, sexy scent that captures the true spirit of cool and confident; the powerful notes of lemon and warm leather come together with energizing cedar wood and amber.

FOR THE GREEN GUY: Do your part for the planet with an earth-friendly Burt’s Bees Natural Grooming Kit which includes a body wash, bar soap, aftershave, shave cream and lip balm all nicely housed in a canvas dopp kit. His skin will benefit too: The all-natural formulas are made with extracts of sunflower, coconut, cypress, and fir oils, aloe and Vitamin E.

FATHER’S DAY GIFTS FOR THE MAN ABOUT TOWN: If your dad has swank style and Sinatra cool, a chrome shaving brush from The Art of Shaving will make his daily chore a bit more glamorous. For utterly smooth skin, add a jar of their Sandalwood Shave Cream with it. The feel-good formula is infused with coconut and sandalwood oils for a hydrating, nick-free shave.

FATHER’S DAY GIFTS FOR THE ATHLETE: If he hits the gym every day, he’ll want a scent that easily goes from locker room to office, and exudes an attitude that says, “I can do it”. Check out Avon Ironman Eau de Toilette Spray, a lime-based fragrance, spiked with energizing notes of exotic spices and rich wood that satisfies his inner athlete, even when he’s on a break.

TURN IT ON
Electric razors are known for giving quick, fast, nick-free shaves. The newest ones have LED lights (to help see hard to reach places), self cleaners and work on wet or dry beards.

NAIL IT
He may not go for regular manicures, but he needs to keep his fingertips and toes well-groomed too. A manicure kit with trimmers, scissors and a file, will help him maintain clean, buffed nails anywhere.

Shop manicure tools now.

AGELESS SKIN
A man’s skin may be genetically thicker than a woman’s, but that doesn’t mean he’s immune to wrinkles and creases. Start his skincare regimen right with anti-aging skincare made specifically with a guy in mind.

Shop men’s skincare now.

SCENTED SUDS
So he’s not into full on aftershave? Give him a scented shower gel. When rinsed off, it leaves behind a light fragrance that’s not as strong as a spray of cologne.
