Men are really difficult to shop for and with Father’s Day around the corner, you’re probably wondering what to get for your father (besides a meal). Well, we’ve got you covered. Read on and find out how you can also score a free juggling lesson and set of juggling balls. Check out our 2021 Father’s Day Gift Guide below which is sure to make your dad feel loved and pampered!
Premium Maskne Freeze Facial
Now, it may not seem like something one would get for dad…but a lot of men have been complaining about being plagued by masks (mask acne) and clogged pores due to the humidity from wearing masks daily!
As such, why not treat father dearest (maybe mum might want to join in) to My Cozy Room’s exclusive Premium Maskne Freeze Facial? It comes with a freezing cold mask and Cryocell Therapy aka Electroporation (-10°C) to rejuvenate and purify one’s skin. Enjoy the soothing effects of their BABOR Cellulose Balancing Mask with 10 minutes of Cryotherapy massage (-7°C), which is effective in refining pores to lighten acne scares and maskne.
Complete the treatment with a cold mask infused with peppermint extract for calming inflammation and treating breakouts resulting from the prolonged use of face masks. The ultra cooling mask will help to minimise redness and swelling after facial extraction to refresh your skin with coolness.
My Cozy Room’s Premium Maskne Freeze Facial is priced at S$388 (50% for first-timers residing in Singapore).
For more information or to book an appointment, please visit their website www.mycozyroom.com.sg.
Loungewear
With more of us working from home, it might help to get dad some comfy new lounge wear that he can safely roll out of bed and go to work and still be presentable during zoom meetings. What’s more, some loungewear these days look good enough to be worn out of the house!
Skincare

 |
 |
| AHAVA Men’s Age Control Moisturising Cream Broad Spectrum SPF15 US$42 | Molton Brown Men’s Morning Ritual Shaving Gift Set £66 | Molton Brown Vitamin Lipsaver (10ml) £12 |
Again, it may not seem intuitive to get dad beauty products but then again, most men know the importance of skincare but most are clueless OR they just want a very simple regime and simple products. Which is why products such as the AHAVA Men’s Age Control moisturiser are great – it contains sunscreen so that dad only needs to slap it on before heading out without worrying about another step!
Afternoon tea and tipple
As Singaporeans, which Father’s Day gift guide is complete without food? And since we’re celebrating dad, this is a chance to indulge in some treats! ATLAS has updated their takeaway menu and its much-loved Afternoon Tea (starting from S$48 nett) has made its debut on its online store for a limited time. It features both sweet and savoury items, including the exclusive ATLAS Art Deco Tea Blend – a perfect array of treats for a sophisticated afternoon at home. You have the option of adding a decadent cocktail pairing featuring the signature ATLAS Martini & Espresso Martini (100ml each, for an additional S$40). The sumptuous Afternoon Tea is delivered between 2-4pm daily, and if ordered before midnight, you can enjoy next-day delivery.
Besides the Afternoon Tea, there is the ATLAS Essentials (S$128 with free delivery) – a care package for the dine-at-home experience. It includes a cocktail flight, featuring the ATLAS Martini, Negroni and Grand Palais; with options for one or two people, it comes complete with a lavish collection of nibbles to savour like Kamon, bresaola, house-made pork terrine, fresh artisan bread and other accompaniments.
To order or to browse through their menu, do visit “The ATLAS Shop” at https://shopatlasbar.sg/ (free home delivery for all orders above S$100) or ATLAS Takeaway at https://atlasbar.oddle.me/en_SG.
Beer holder shower speaker
We’re sure that men will love this! We know that there are a lot of people who enjoy listening to music in the shower but what if you could have your drink while doing a job in the loo and still listen to music? Calling the toilet ‘his throne’ would now make a lot of sense. Oh…and did we mention that they’re bluetooth speakers?
Headphones for the audiophile father
| High Budget | Low Budget |
|---|---|
 AfterShokz AIR Bone Conduction Open Ear Headphones in Midnight Blue – US$169.95 |
 Typo Frequency Headphones in Matte Black – AU$11.25 |
Well, if you don’t want dad to sing the shower…then perhaps some headphones would be a great gift so that he can listen to his favourite music on the run or even when he is taking a dump.
AfterShokz’s headphones are great for cyclists because they sit directly in front of the ears instead of in them. As such, wearers are still able to hear cars and people along with whatever music they’re playing.
Improve dad’s hand-eye coordination
 |
Stand the chance to win this set of juggling balls (worth S$19) and a free juggling lesson (worth S$50)! |

Juggling is both fun and challenging at the same time. Best part? It’s beneficial to both mind and body!
Get dad to learn how to juggle 3 balls from a real, professional Performing Juggler! It’ll be a new hobby for him to relieve stress while improving his hand-eye coordination, reflexes and concentration.
Did you know that professional athletes, including Formula 1 race car drivers, juggle to train their hand-eye coordination? For example, Max Verstappen, Daniel Ricciardo, and Nico Rosberg juggle. (And did you also know — Lewis Hamilton can ride a unicycle). 😃

- 60 minutes
- Location in Simei

Let him eat cake

Black Sesame Mochi Cheesecake |
 |
Chocolate Whisky Cigar Roll |
If dad has a sweet tooth or if you’d like something that the whole family can share, why not get a cake? The Pine Garden has created a couple of Father’s Day specials – Black Sesame Mochi Cheesecake (0.5kg S$46; 1kg $65) and a smokin’ cool looking Chocolate Whisky Cigar Roll (S$38).
The Black Sesame Mochi Cheesecake has the rich and bold aroma of black sesame while the mochi bits give you that chewy texture all accompanied with the velvety cheesecake. Definitely something that dad would love!
If dad prefers something a bit less creamy, then go for the Chocolate Whisky Cigar Roll where it contains Whisky jelly that is offset extremely well with the bittersweet chocolate. We also love how they’ve made it look like an actual cigar with the ‘burnt’ end and that you can really taste the whisky in this cake.
