Hacking,slicing and cutting your face to ribbons in the morning is no one's idea of fun is it? yet for most of us, it is a necessity. Well, shaving is anyway. This means a sleepy trip around your chin with a razor or other such implement. You are left feeling smooth and clean but you have also done 2 other things. Firstly, you have opened up your skin to the elements. Its not just the hair you have removed.Your pores are probably more suseptible to dirt and grime as well as infections. Secondly you have removed much of the moisture from your skin during the shaving process. These are 2 situations that need to be rectified. So after shave ... Read the complete review

Having a beard of steel, I get through shaving products like they were tissue. I've tried them all, and usually come first to reviews in places like dooyoo to guide me. In the end, I find that most reviews of these products are written by men who have slight or thin beards. To these guys, shaving with the grain, using any variety of products, would provide a clean crisp shave. To men like me, there is nothing but sore faces and mini stubble to contend with. So here's my take on the entire Gillette range, coming from the perspective of a Steel Bearded Gent. Firstly, the Razor. Its no surprise that the Mach 3 Turbo is the current choice of many. ...

Remember those great adverts, with the cheesy line, "Gillette....the best a man can get!" This product IS...I'm not joking! It's sort of a moisturiser and deoderant all in one. The smell is really great and quite subtle unlike other fragrances which bully their way into your nose. The bottle is quite petite and so won't demand too much shelf space plus the gel is really cooling, and you'll really appreciate this on a hot afternoon. Forget ice, a good smearing of this'll do the trick! Great for weddings but I wouldn't recommend it for intensive stuff like exercising because it doesn't tend to keep the sweat in very long. ...

Gillette have triumphed again, i like to use aftershave to refresh my skin after shaving, and gillette balm is brilliant. Its not too expensive, smells great and leaves your skin refreshed not sticky and stinging like many other products. And with gillette, you can get the gel or foam to match also, not to mention the deodorant or body spray. Revitalising and lasts for ages so great value for money.It can be bought in most high street stores or pharmacies. ... Read the complete review

This is more than just an after shave gel. It's a skin moisturizer and conditioner. I only apply a few drops of this to the tips of my fingers and then rub it into my face and neck and my skin immediately feels revitalized. There is no burning sensation as with some other after-shaving lotions. Instead, your skin is left feeling cool and refreshed. Recently, Gillette has begun adding Vitamin E to this product and I think that this ingredient makes my skin feel even smoother. This aftershave has a typical "aftershave loitiony" smell to it, but it is not nearly as strong as other aftershaves like an old spice. It wears off pretty quickly so ... Read the complete review
