This is the “70’s Hair Chest Sweater” by Firebox. It’s $60.49, instantly turns your torso into that of an oiled-up, hairy-chested man, and seems like a pretty rad form of birth control. It also reminds me of Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

The Barbers Finest Gentlemen’s Care definitely wins our completely made-up award for best men’s facial care bottle design. Their mustachioed bottles of pre-shave lotion, aftershave, and cologne sort of remind us of falcons and falcons are awesome.
They get bonus points for the bow tie with the phrase “ladies first” - the slogan of any true gentleman.
