H&M have launched an iPhone app where you can get access to news and exclusive promotional deals.
It has been designed to look like a 3D fashion galley with access to videos and a store locator, with the added feature of letting you know what garments are available to purchase from it on any given day.
You can get the app here.

We know we have really gorgeous, manly, rugged, men out there reading TFG, producing so much stubble that they don’t know what to do with it. That’s why we jumped at the chance to review ‘The Bluebeard’s Revenge’ a product for real men, with real stubble. This is not some air filled shaving foam boys - this is a shaving cream – it will not only give you a smooth shave, it will slow that beard growth down too.
- The first thing we noticed when we received our pot is the packaging – this is going to look impressive on your bathroom shelf. A retro style pot with a silver lid, then a vivid blue label with skull and crossbone graphics – visitors just aren’t going to be able to help screwing off that lid to have a look and a sniff.
- Now that’s the second thing, the smell. This stuff smells really, really good, clean and sexy – you may have to put up with some neck nuzzling I’m afraid.
- Next – the feel – it’s rich, it’s smooth,it’s creamy. We asked Michael, our very manly and heavily bearded techie down here at TFG to put this stuff to the test. He once carried a whole hard drive as far as the car. A small amount in the palm of the hand lathered up really well and went on smoothly with great coverage – we all had a sniff of his chin at this point.
- Finally – the shave. Yes a great, smooth shave, (we all had a feel). Apparently a nice skin tingle afterwards, but no burning – jobs a good un.
