Shaving.

I never have close shaves, but had one on Friday and then on Monday. Going to have a once over with the electric on Saturday morning, possibly set to 1.2 or 1.4mm. I've been warned not to turn up to my wedding with a smooth face. The stubble tends to give me a macho, rugged yet mysterious look.

 

Like a rapist you mean?

 

The clinique range in general is supposed to be excellent but I haven't used it so can't comment. I hear their shaving cream is top notch.

This is supposed to be very good too:

If you're looking for something a bit more luxurious:

Some people prefer soaps to creams:

Another thing with the double edged shaving, your stubble grows in much more evenly and healthier looking

 

Pretty much Can't see the stubble when I wear my balaclava though, so kinda defeats the purpose of having it.

 

I can't be arsed with all the hassle though. I might shave once a week with my electric, but can go 2 or 3 weeks without shaving.

 

Another recommendation:

One of the nicest smelling shaving creams I've used. THE nicest in fact. It lathers like a dream too, really good performance from this stuff. Going to buy the cologne, it really is a wonderful scent.

I ordered this at the weekend:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Proraso-Sha...8&qid=1399548727&sr=8-1&keywords=proraso blue

Heard nothing but good things. The regular Proraso cream can be a bit irritating due to the eucalyptus. This cream is supposed to be wht bollox though.

I got a vintage shaving kit for an engagement present. Will upload pics.

Castle Forbes lime shaving cream will hopefully be delivered tomorrow. Can't wait

 

I think you might just have to wait.

 

Alas

 

Nice smiley never seen that one before ^^^

 

I don't think I have had the pleasure of seeing that smiley either, maybe Mick is adding new ones. He really does push the boat out when he is doing a recruitment drive.

 

Watford's new Mexican player has over 1 million followers on facebook. We should try and get some of them on GC. If there were some females Gambol would probably explode.
