    Men shouldn't buy things from body shop for themselves.

    It sends exactly the same message as being male and riding Campag Athena, which is exactly the same as being male and driving a convertable Vauxhall Tigra, which is exactly the same being male and wearing skinny jeans.

    It's just not cricket.

    I just had to post the quote from the previous page below

    DonDaddyD wrote:
    As a man that has moisturised everyday since birth:

    The right cream depends on your skin type. If you have dry skin the none oil based baby lotion won't do anything.

    Example:

    I have a oily face, after I use facial wash (Tea Tree oil) I use baby lotion for my face to moisturise, not add more oil to it and thus the production of spots thorugh traped/blocked pores. I have don't have an oily (naturally sweaty) body so I use baby oil for that and cocoa butter or vaseline for my feet (foot bottom ~ for Cafewanda's benefit).

    If your rash is more ala razor bumbs then perhaps using a bumpstopper type cream. There are shops in deepest darkest Brixton, Croydon, Streatham, Shepards Bush etc that can help.

    That said I'd probably bath (using Tea Tree Oil or something equally natural) making sure the skin was devoid of all oil, grime, dirt, sweat and use either Vaseline, Astral or baby oil should E45 not work.

    However, if the rash isn't just skin irritation then the application of more oil may:

    i: Block the pores creating spots and irritate the skin further (stopping it from breathing etc - which something as thick as E45 does).
    ii: Prevent new hair from growing straight, making them curl inwards and back into the skin thus creating razor bumps.

    If it is skin irritation baby lotion might work but your skin may also need help producing natural oils cocoa butter may do the trick. But the solution really may come down to you knowing your body and what works for it.

    (I just like to cream - moisturise - my skin).

    I don't know what you've been doing ITB, my second go went off without incident, save for a few areas of accidental overun, and no nasty rashes! The gillette aftershave moisturiser seems to have done it's job, even if it is missing the tingling ngale was on about. I need to get hold of some of that stuf.

    TMI ALERT - NOT SUITABLE FOR WORK OR CHILDREN, LOOK AWAY NOW

    So i'm told that when waxing the crack this is performed with the victim on all fours head down and parted, if you get what I mean :shock:

    DDD can you confirm ...?

    :lol:

    no wait ... :?

    Its more a self service job IMO, one leg up like a flamingo and lean to one side. However, what works for the individual is a very private moment and position between you and yourself. You may find out that you like absailing back there.

    I'm adding my name to the shorn flock as I did the deed on sunday and the only problem was running out of veet and having to use it sparingly on my legs which left some hair but not a lot. Monday in work was a different matter however, for the contracty I was working on I had to wear full length trousers for the first time in 2 months, very odd on shaven legs even though I've done it before. More veeting later for me. No spots/rashes etc unlike others :)
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Jake is in the club at the moment as well, he had his leg waxing on saturday in readiness for his ride out on Sunday.

    He has surprisingly smooth legs...it's quite disturbing and reminds me I really need to get mine done :shock:

    Okay I've got to ask, so 'real' ladies is it a bit of a shock if you discover that the new man in your life is going with the Telly Savalas look downstairs :shock:

    I'm pretty sure I speak for ALL men when I say we REALLY like that look on the laydees :roll:

    LiT, these hairless legs do nothing for you then? and if he were to disorbe and the totally hairless under his trousers you'd kick him out? :lol:
