Hahaha! This thread is amazing! You collectively managed to sustain two pages of unyielding extended satire. Truly you are masters of wit and cunning!

Oh my god - I thought the members of this forum were a bit odd but really!

You do know that all these creams and stuff will have zero influence on wrinkles and so on - that is ZERO. Might make you feel better and a basic cream is good for shaving rash.

Definatly some pink tents here

Yeah, got to agree with TD to some degree. Skin water content comes from the inside, not the outside. Just drink plenty of water. That'll keep you all looking beautiful.

Maybe so, but if you suffer from dry skin or skin that suffers from exposure to cold weather, a moisturiser can do wonders.

I'm pretty sure there has been good research linking UV rays and ageing and many of these moisturisers contain sun protection.

Not sure why so many men are uncomfortable with making a bit of an effort for the ladies. 🙄

UV protection is the only thing that can make the slightest of difference. Even then the amount of UV protection is minimal. Its the only way manufacturers can claim "antiwrinkle" is UV protection. Everything else is expensive snake oil.

If you need a moisturiser for dry skin then a cheap generic one is just as good.

If you want UV protection use sunscreen

I got some King of shaves stuff in a xmas set. All the stuff, pre-shave, gel and post shave. Honestly thought it was a load of old bunkum, but if you follow the instructions and use it as they say it really does work for the skin. Considering i'm stubbly half hour after shaving and need to shave twice a day to keep clean shaven, i need to moisturise.

The question really is, what moisturiser on your legs?

I've been a dedicated metrosexual since before the term was even invented...I believe at one stage I had some kind of cleanser which was called, being a mens' product, "scruffing solution".

This is what my face feels like these days:

It depends whether you believe the marketing hype or not. Personally I use clarins for men, accompanied by clinique for men oil free anti-shine, as well as their pore minimiser and m-cover stick.

For the rest of me I use kiehls creme de corps which I rate highly, especially immediately post shower.

You've already said you prefer wine bars to pubs, and coupled with this revelation, leads me to come to only one possible conclusion...

You, sir, are a PONCE!

Depending on your skin type, your face will like either some sort of vegetable/fruit oil, or a glycerine based cream. Both can be found very cheaply, in simple forms. The spensive stuff just has smells taken out/put in, and are ponced up in fancy packaging. And suckers spend a fortune on it!

Some women just like to feminize their men hence the "just doing it for the wife/gf" quotes

Some just like being more feminine for some reason

It's ok, they're quite used to seeing me now after my little "accidents"...they take sweepstakes on what story I'll be using each visit.

I have very dry skin on my face, and seriously I use olive oil. The hospital put it on our twins when they were in special care and it works a treat, much better than any nivea or fancy crap

Well, just back from Tesco. Got a date tomorrow night so no time to visit a chemist.

range was poor, doesn't Tesco realise we need more than their own brand or Gillette face balm products!! I mean woman have more tampon options than that!

Anyway, I got some Tesco Skincare Intelligence (or SI) smoothing balm. It seems OK. Fragrance is a bit too brash though, I prefer a more natural, meadow type fragrance. But it'll do for now.

Conor - don't bother with the supermarket stuff or the super-expensive cosmetic stuff. The serious, over-the-counter stuff is Cetraben, which is to other moisturisers what a Nissan GTR is to a Micra.

I think I'll just go back to the gay Israeli chap that sells the dead sea stuff in the shopping centre and get some of his moisturiser.

oh my god, don't ever by the cheaper end "man" products (the Gillettes, Tescos, supermarket brands etc) as they load them with what smells like concentrated Lynx mixed with condensed skunk jizz. You may well end up being a ladykiller, literally.

As for the basics, all a moisturiser has to do is hold moisture in the skin without being excessively greasy. Given that there's a whole raft of different skin types due to hormones etc, you're best off trying until you find one that works for you. If a cheap one works, then use it, it'll do the same. If you want to spend more, that's prerogative.

Oh, and apparently I'm King of all Metrosexual Land according to that quiz.

Result. All hail the king!
