SAN DIEGO, Calif. (January 19, 2022) Today, men's lifestyle consumer brand and male

grooming category creator, MANSCAPED(tm), announces the launch of the Ultra Premium(tm)

Collection, available now in the United States and Canada. Further venturing beyond the groin,

MANSCAPED's latest kit features a variety of expertly designed grooming products to keep you

clean from head-to-toe.

"While we started as a brand dedicated to grooming solutions for the groin, MANSCAPED has

evolved into a much broader business that encompasses personal care and lifestyle," said Paul

Tran, Founder and CEO of MANSCAPED. "This launch of consumables exemplifies this

significant growth, as well as our continual product expansion and commitment to providing our

customers with only the best products for all their self-care needs."

Formulated with the highest quality ingredients, each product in the Ultra Premium Collection is

meant to bring the ultimate experience in full-body grooming and hygiene. The line is infused

with MANSCAPED's signature Refined(tm) scent and is dermatologist tested, cruelty free, vegan

friendly, and made to keep you feeling fresh, clean, and feeling like your best self everywhere,

not just below-the-waist. The five-piece bundle includes:

Body Wash -- Experience a luxurious lather like no other with this efficacious body wash

featuring aloe vera and sea salt to keep skin balanced and hydrated. Packaged in an

aluminum bottle with a convenient pump top.

2-in-1 Shampoo + Conditioner -- Rich in antioxidants and infused with coconut water,

green tea, aloe, turmeric, and sage, this one-step formulation is the perfect balance of

cleansing and moisturizing.

Premium Deodorant -- Keep odors at bay with this aluminum-free and perfectly

fragranced deodorant that dries quick and clear.

Hydrating Body Spray -- Quench dry skin with this non-greasy and quick-drying spray-on

moisturizer featuring hyaluronic acid and red algae to lock in hydration.
