Barbon is a new range under the brand name Caola that includes five elegantly packaged [men's grooming products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chi-pour-homme). Boasting sleek box packaging that has a marble pattern, each product is differentiated by a 1-5 number and a pastel hue in what is a clear extension of the progression toward [clinical, pharmaceutical inspired skincare branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/walgreens-mens-zone).

The elegant Barbon set includes a pre-shave treatment, a protective skin foam, after-shave, a nourishing care cream for the skin and a styling wax. The linear packaging concept unifies the line and makes it seem like a selection to be collected rather than selected between.

Barbon succeeds in creating a packaging concept that appears [elegant, scientific and modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-labels), all three of which are themes key observed in marketing mens skincare solutions.
