Ok if your gona share this let me outline it for you so you donbt spend hours surfing and spending boatload of monies
Wet Shaving:
Razor
Get him a decent de razor that will last him a lifetime
This one is good for both quality and cool factor
or any one of these from maggards razors (even the "low priced ones are decent" from Merkur)
Soap
Instead of getting him just one soap with the chance he might not like it get him a bunch of samplers
These look small but shaving soaps LAST FOREVER. Shaving 3 days a week these samplers lasted me 2 semesters cheaper too.
The chiseled face brand is a well lauded brand as well.
My GF loved it when I smell of Sherlock~
Brush:
Just get a cheap but decent omega brush. Id even advice the cheapo ebay 2$ brush but shipping will take long
Blades:
Get him a sampler so he can test which blade works best for him
Also FYI
get him the labiotte dear linden homme deep moisture emulsion. Its really good quality and has quite a manly scent.
And who knows maybe theyll send you a bunch of free samples like i received yesterday

For everything else skincare im sure you can suggest awesome AB products
Good luck to you~
For leak-proof you can’t beat Nalgene. I use them for Bay Rum and Dr. B’s soap, which I use for shampoo, shaving and body. Results for “nalgene travel bottles” at REI (Disclosure: I work for REI. Nalgene travel bottles are available through other vendors, but this was an easy way for me to display the selection. I haven’t tried it but I suspect that the dropper bottle (with tip trimmed back) is flexible enough to dispense toothpaste and lotion. (As others have suggested, I just buy travel size for these items.)
Though I use a Merkur safety razor at home, I’ve started traveling with a Harry’s razor because it’s legal for carry-on. Harry’s is now available at Target and I start each trip with a fresh blade cartridge for about 2 bucks.
If I am checking a bag, I just use my everyday Merkur #180 (“long” handle — still short compared to modern cartridge handles) encased in a Merkur-Razor Leather Sheath. I’ve never found the travel Merkur — which merely uses an extra-short handle — to add enough compact to justify purchase.
However, this looks interesting: Parker A1R - 4 Piece Travel Safety Razor & Leather Case
this is kinda gatget-y breaks down into small compact parts for easy travel!
> Every time when I'm forced to shave with a cartridge razor (because of travel etc.),
I use one of these when traveling. I don't like tossing the blade after only 1 or two uses but it is a lot better than a cartridge razor.

Travel shave brushes are also out there - just be sure to dry/air them out before you pack them away or who knows what kind of funk will start growing in the brush. Mine is always left out to dry for a few days when I get home after travelling. Pack along a tube of Proraso, use a cup at the hotel for lathering and you can get by.
Some travel shave brush ideas....

A decent DE razor. I was able to find refills at the local grocery store on Ko Pha Ngan, so even if you don't check luggage and have to through out the blades (not the razor), you should be able to find them anywhere, and a ten pack takes up little room.
A good dry bag. Keep your important stuff in it when moving, wash your laundry in it when you need to without access to a proper sink or washing machine (soap, water, cloths, let it soak, squish for a bit, then hang dry on some 550 twisted cord.) Some areas I've been have showers and not very large sinks with plugs.
Multitool? watch out for knife laws. Japan is strict about knives and I don't know which others are.
An army equivalent duffel bag. No frame so you can pack it along with other stuff in a smaller bag, but it has been used to expand for shopping for longer durations when our smaller packs wouldn't do, unless you are into Furoshiki which uses a sheet of fabric many ways, it is a one use wonder.
