Creams should only be used by men for smothering the skin of naked birds for slippy slidey bedroom fun. End of discussion.

Ditto, will be 37 in a few weeks and I have this problem all the time.Originally posted by Gonzo View PostAs for results? Well I will soon be 37 and look more like 27, but this is not so much of an advantage when you are trying to present yourself as an expensive consultant.

Shave Ease Oil rules! I love the stuff, makes shaving sooooo much easier.Originally posted by ladymuck View PostThe boyf likes the Clarins for Men range. He swears by the Shave Ease Oil
You're right there, I wouldn't use a brand associated with birds (or squirrels). I use that loreal men expert stuff and occasionally bio oil.Originally posted by thunderlizard View PostMore like "men know their mates would laugh at them if they bought the girlie brand, hence the need to have our own line".
It's got to be the same stuff surely? Anyway if Oil of Ulay was good enough for my gran it's good enough for me.
Not sure how "safe" Oil of Ulay is for humans though. My nan was a big user and she had a massive tash.Eat Right, Exercise, Die Anyway.Comment

Just before I left my old permie job, they took on a new lad who was about 28, a bit wet behind the ears but knew his stuff to be fair to him.Originally posted by Gonzo View PostWell I will soon be 37 and look more like 27, but this is not so much of an advantage when you are trying to present yourself as an expensive consultant.
The problem was he built like a gypsies dog and looked no older than about 18
They're gonna have some questions raised when they start billing him out for £950 a day.

My grandmother also used Oil of Ulay habitually.
She sent them a "thank you letter" when she was 84, extolling the product.
She was most surprised to receive a gift in return, quite possibly the larget Oil of Ulay tub I have ever seen. Seriously, it was a bucket.
It outlasted her !Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Hmmmm...... I'll have to get all my elderly relatives (+ a few made up ones) to do the same. That should keep my wife in cream for the next few yearsOriginally posted by Board Game Geek View PostMy grandmother also used Oil of Ulay habitually.

What he's not telling us is that he's actually 24!!!Originally posted by Bod View PostDon't know about independent trials. My own testing is empirical though :
put it on, skin feels good, I only look 30 (despite the occasional Marlboro)

As someone who has quite noticable scarring from severe acne when I was a teenager (think of Seal and you're not far off), I've been wondering whether to try bio oil as it's supposed to smoothen acne scars, from what I read somewhere.
One thing I'm never going to try is plastic or cosmetic surgery. There's plenty of celebrities doing quite well at damaging the image of it just by having it. Think Lesley Ash, Jackie Stallone, and many many others. All look like freaks of nature now.Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it

We have our own cream dispenser for that. Hence the very distinct difference between what's for men and what's for women, just so we don't get them mixed up by accident.Originally posted by Diver View PostCreams should only be used by men for smothering the skin of naked birds for slippy slidey bedroom fun.
