Have you not heard of Ebay ....
![]() I also suffer - I find I can only use the old gillette twin bladed sensor with shaving oil - I buy loads at a time - still using ones I bought about 4 years ago ! Like these - ok, so they are the womens ones, but exactly the same as the mens only white plastic instead of grey http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/100-X-GILLETTE...d=p3286.c0.m14 nana |

Shaving routine should be as follows (I worked for a company that specialised in mens grooming while at school):
*metrosexual mode on* Wash face in warm water - It opens the pores, then apply shaving foam or combination of shaving foam and shaving oil. Also, if applied using a brush, it helps to stimulate the nerve endings on the skin. Shave as normal and always shave with the grain as going against the grain causes ingrown hairs and can be very painful. Use a sharp blade so replace regularly. Rinse face with warm water to clear any reamining foam/oil. Then, and this is crucial, rinse you face with cold water. This closes the pores and reduces sensitivity. Dry with a clean towel and do not apply after shave directly to the skin. If you do have sensitive skin then use either an unfragranced moisturiser and once dried, then apply the after shave or use an aftershave balm...most good fragrance houses will make an aftershave balm. Anyway, HTH. *metrosexual mode off* |
