Marc Jacobs shared with Details his grooming routine, his painful hair transplant and his favorite products. So if you’ve ever wanted to groom like Marc Jacobs, do check out the whole interview. Here are some excerpts:
Face. Instead of “any bar of soap from the supermarket,” Jacobs uses face wash (Joëlle Ciocco Lotion Lactee), toner (Joëlle Ciocco Skin Defensive), under-eye cream (Dr. Brandt Time Arrest Eye Serum), serum (Dr. Brandt Time Arrest Face Fluid), and moisturizer (Joëlle Ciocco Creme Riche). He camouflages dark circles under his eyes with Yves Saint Laurent Teint Parfait Complexion Enhancer #7, occasionally darkens his eyebrows with a makeup pencil, and blots out shine with Shiseido Men Anti-Shine Refresher Gel.
Teeth. Once a year he gets his teeth whitened. He goes to his own dentist, rather than to a teeth-whitening spa, because “I feel like my teeth belong to him,” Jacobs says. He also uses a Rembrandt toothpaste formulated for smokers and a non-alcohol-based mouthwash.
Body. Jacobs applies the moisturizer he uses on his face—Joëlle Ciocco Creme Riche—all over his body. He thins his chest hair using a Philips Norelco beard trimmer with the adjusting blade removed. “When I started to take an interest in grooming, trimming my body hair became part of that ritual,” he says. Despite his highly specific regimen, he still heads to the supermarket for certain staples. “I go through phases where I buy only Speed Stick and Axe,” he says. “And Noxzema shaving cream.”
