Interesting. Sounds like the general Merkur and Gillette travel razor. Although I've never seen one thats a slant....

Hmm.... Harris creams are up on the wish list

You can fit a brush and a small jar of cream in there as well

Same site. 2$ case I use.

I'm a college student and have done my fair share of drinking :D Personally, I go with the drink as much water as you can before falling asleep. You can use water or a sports drink (try to get some low sugar ones though). Chug as much as you can and than stay up until your decently sober and than go...

Check out the Anthony Logistics line. It can be found at many department stores. Personally one of my favorite mens lines.

The huge red painful pimple bumps are usually filled with blood, while the smaller white heads are filled with antibacterial puss pushing dirt out.

Sounds to me like bacterial folliculitis http://www.merck.com/media/mmhe2/thumbnails/tn_18201bp.jpg Theres a picture of it on somebodies neck. Its something that would be treated with antibiotics. Its often from hot tubs, public pools, etc. But it could be from any of the things you touch to your fa...

I've got the same thing. keratosis. Moisturizers with urea do the trick. If you have one, all good. Otherwise I can post a list my dermatologist gave me.

I tried this. I now have a long handle adjustable ready for the trash. Couldnt get the dial back up.

Try some Treets from Tryphon. 100 blades for 10$

Wow. At least nobody has bid on it (with 6 hours left), and chances are it'll be put back on for a good amount less. You go to ebay to make money, sell to forum members to pass along great razors for great deals. Its got the plastic head anyway

A story of a fellow reaching a solution to a problem and without thinking "tapping" his chin with the razor. Pretty nice gash. Its an isolated incident thought. If you shave with it and are careful, you'll just have some slight cuts while learning. If you're not careful and don't take the ...

any pictures? is the bowl big enough to lather in?

The adjustable Gillettes are pretty mild IMHO, I'd say start on a 3 and work your way up. As for blades, its completely your choice. Usually some scrubbing bubbles to clean it up with a toothbrush and whatnot and than a soak in some high alcohol content rubbing alcohol.

Many people around here shave with str8s. You may want to go to the straight razor section of the forum.

When I do exfoliate, its not for the areas I shave but for the areas I dont shave.

edit: Also I dont use harsh chemicals for exfoliation. I use natural products with little pieces of whatnot to scrape the dead skin off.

I use hair conditioner here and there and it seems to do an okay job. As for exfoliating, you should only exfoliate once or twice a week with a scrub to remove the dead skin cells from the areas of your face you dont shave. Maybe you just need better prep on your neck and your technique is slowly im...

I have a GFT sandalwood soap still wrapped in plastic in the wooden bowl, still in the box. I just smelled it through the wrapper and didnt like the scent. I'd like to trade it for GFT coconut soap. I'd preferably trade the whole shabang for another I guess I could do a wrapped soap for a wrapped so...

You'll find out when you get it.

Still white heads. Razor burn is a reddish rash with red bumps. If you over shave an area you'll wind up with a whole bunch of tiny annoying white heads. I dont know if theyre scientifically white heads, but theyre easy to pop and go away after that.
