MANSCAPED(R), the global men's grooming company, and lifestyle consumer brand is proud to announce that its best-selling groin and body hair trimmer, The Lawn Mower(R) 5.0 Ultra, has been named Best in Men's Grooming in the 2025 CEW Beauty Awards, the industry's highest honor and ultimate recognition in beauty. "MANSCAPED took on a white space in men's grooming by creating the first trimmer designed specifically for men's sensitive areas," said Paul Tran, Founder and CEO of MANSCAPED.

Manscaped hires Quality Meats for its first Super Bowl campaign

Manscaped hires Quality Meats for its first Super Bowl campaign. Quality Meats is tackling an ad around the Super Bowl after winning Manscaped's pitch for a national spot, Ad Age has learned. The Chicago independent agency made its Big Game debut this year with GoDaddy. That campaign went on to win the Creative B2B Grand Prix at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity in June. Manscaped's ad may run on the game itself, or might run just before the coin toss. The marketer said "it was in negotiations with NBC for our final spot placement." (Ad Age's definition of a Super Bowl commercial includes all national spots between the coin toss and end of play.) "This is our biggest media play yet, and we knew the right partner had to be just as strong as the creative concept itself," said Marcelo Kertész, chief marketing officer of Manscaped. "There's something about Quality Meats and Manscaped that feels like a natural fit." This will be Quality Meats' first work for Manscaped, which has worked with a range of agencies, including independents Special US and Pereira O'Dell. The appearance comes as the brand - best known for its cheeky marketing around below-the-belt grooming - seeks to broaden its image, emphasizing that it now offers a full range of men's grooming products. Earlier this year, Manscaped launched a campaign called "Send Face Pics Instead," created with Special US, showcasing its expanded line of facial grooming tools. "Manscaped was born as a groin-first brand. We knew since day one of this company existing that this is not the end goal," Kertész said on Ad Age's Marketer's Brief podcast in September. "This whole new campaign that we just launched is about communicating to the world how the Manscaped that you probably know and love for the groin is actually pretty good at serving your face." Founded in 2016, Manscaped's advertising has traditionally leaned into edgy humor. Last year, for example, the brand ran a TV spot from Pereira O'Dell that depicted a man's unshaved nether regions as a pair of hairy little men. That style may be a sweet spot for Quality Meats, which has a history of creating bold campaigns. The selection of Quality Meats for the Feb. 8 campaign also comes as Manscaped boosts its retail presence both in North America and internationally. "We're super excited to partner with Manscaped for their first-ever Super Bowl campaign and show the world how Manscaped helps men care for all their body parts, not just the manly ones," said Brian Siedband, co-founder and co-chief creative officer, Quality Meats.
