| 1177282 | 2011-02-12 22:12:00 | If youse blade user jokers are interested in what goes between the blade and your skin, I suggest you give aqueous cream a try. Buy it from the chemist in a biggish tub for about $6 - $8 (can't recall exactly). A tub will last you for ages, and the empty tubs are an ideal size for recycling in your shed for keeping nails, screws etc in them. It is much cheaper than buying any of those proprietary shaving creams, sticks, or foams, and you don't end up having to chuck out aerosol cans. Aqueous cream is used by dermatologists as a soap substitute for people who have skins that are irritated by (name your skin condition here). It doesn't contain perfume either. My pharmacist uses it for shaving as well; and here's me thinking I invented this use all on my own. You can also use it in the shower instead of soap if you have any irritated bits -e.g. eczema, chafing etc. |

| 1177284 | 2011-02-13 04:04:00 | Bought another pack of Schick disposable razors at the supermarket yesterday, on special, 24 for $9. Now I have over a years supply for about $30. :) |

| 1177285 | 2011-02-13 10:00:00 | This is why I use electric. But you do pay for what you get with electric shavers. I have found braun syncro to be the best, far better than the philips rotary head ones. My braun one was $300 on special, and had it for 10 years, that is just $30 a year. Have just got a new foil and head for it for $70. I have hardly used a razer, and probably would have difficulty using one now not being used to it. | robbyp (2751) | ||
| 1177286 | 2011-02-14 00:17:00 | Have the new Gillette Proglide shavers arrived in NZ yet. It has a thinner blade, but will end up costing more. | wmoore (6009) | ||
