MenScience Androceuticals: Leaders in Grooming for Men

The company's logo says it all: "Be Healthy and Look Great." This simple approach is just one of the reasons why MenScience Androceuticals is a Luxist nominee in the best men's skin care line category.

MenScience was founded by Federico Sanchez, a Harvard business school grad, in 2004. His interest in health and wellness spurred him to start the company, and soon men all around the world were clamoring for MenScience products. In 2005, Sanchez took the brand international, and by 2008 the company offered more than 30 different items.
