PHYSIO SPORT
=================================================================

SMELL:-
==========

Physio Sport hydrate is suitable for men, but my husband and I use it both. Not at the same time though! To me the smell is neutral so works equally well and won't have a man smelling like a woman or a woman smelling like a man and even if it does smell a bit more masculine than some then you can always put perfume on afterwards and you will smell fine. That's if your a woman! I wouldn't advise a man to put perfume on, but then again I have heard of it happening!

The smell has flowery scents to it, but also woody.

BOTTLE:-
=========

The bottle is in a really strange shape, but then bottles do come in strange shapes and sizes a bit like people really. It would be no good if people were all the same and it would be no good if bottles were all the same. The Physio Sport bottle goes to show that wonderful things can come in strange packages. I mean I only need to look at my husband to know that, that's true, lol! I actually really like the bottle, it's shiny and made of plastic, but feels really smooth. It's nice to hold and run your fingers over as it feels very smooth. The bottle shape is also really trendy and sits nicely on our wooden shelf, but it has no hanging loop for the shower which is a bit of a let down. The bottle stands about 15 cm (6 inches) high.


It has the olympic's logo on the front underneath the words Physio Sport. It's actually track tested and proudly states that it's international olympic committee medical comission. I feel quite pleased that this is on the market since not only does it state that it's a professional make, but unlike some products this one actually lives up to it's name. Now, that's something to boast about!


And a little olympic joke for you:

Why isn't Mexico in the olympics?...

Because everyone that can swim, jump, climb, and sprint are already over the Border..

THE COST:-
===========

£2.50 for 250ml in a green and orange bottle.

EFFECTS ON SKIN:-
=================

Now if you have never used Physio Sport before I strongly suggest that you do since it really is effective in hydrating your skin. My skin is very sensitive so I wouldn't use this on my face, but elsewhere on my body it's fine and I've had no problems.

I don't like the feel of this lotion on my skin it feels all greasy and when my husband asked me the other day to rub it in for him it wasn't the most pleasant experience even though it might of been for him!


Apparently according to the itchy Glasgow website the Physio Sports bottle would be more than likely found in a lads bathroom cabinet compared to a professional man. Other things you might find in the lad's bathroom cabinet to give you some idea of the type of person that Physio sport is suitable for is;

The Lad

In the bathroom cabinet…
Lynx, Physio Sport shower gel (sport on the mind, sport on the body), athlete’s foot powder (generic brand), lager flavoured condoms, bumper sized bottle of Tesco’s Wheatgerm Shampoo for normal hair, some fancy moisturizer his ex-bird bought him (unused).


You can actually use this for both skin and hair so it's like an all over body lotion really. Which I think is good because it does save money on buying a seperate shampoo though it has no conditioning agents in it. For a man I suppose it's o.k, but for me I prefer my advanced techniques from Avon. Wouldn't have anything else now.

OPENING PHYSIO SPORT:-
=======================

Physio Sport is so easy to open it comes with a unique lockable action which means all you have to do is twist the cap until it stops then turn the bottle upside down and squeeze. The liquid comes out really easily unlike other liquids that I have used.

Physio Sport really understands what sport means to people. How sport can dry a person's skin out. I mean imagine your off out for the morning jogging, it's windy and it might be rainy. Imagine the effects this can have on a person's skin let alone a man that's proud of his body. Well, he's bound to need something a little more out of the ordinary well that's what Physio Sport gives to a man. It doesn't neccessarily need to be a man that's a sportaholic it could be a man that wants to look nice in apperance. Hey, if my husband can use it and he hasn't got the most toned appearances with his big belly then almost anyone can use this. What it does is it has an effect on the skin. It hydrate's it. Protecting and restoring from wind, water, sun and heat which all take the toll on active bodies.

Not using Physio Sport can mean that your skin loses natural lipids, becoming dry and damaged. Physio Sport will help seal natural moisture in.

It is tested by over 1,000 top athlete's which have developed a unique relationship with the Olympic Committee. Physio Sport is the only product in the world that carries the Olympic Rings on all of its products.

Produced in 1998 the brand consists of 3 varieties - Pure Energy, Fresh Blast and Vital Instinct - also available as deodorant bodyspray, shower gel, anti-perspirant aerosol and roll on. It is made by Elida Faberge Ltd. Freepost 1000, London, SW1A 2XX (UK only)

Finally if your a man that wants to know wether he's taking his shower etiquetley see below. Happy showering :)

HOW TO SHOWER LIKE A MAN

Take off clothes while sitting on the edge of the bed and leave them in a pile on the floor where they dropped.
Walk naked into the bathroom. If you see your wife along the way, shake your weiner at her and say something stupid.
Look at your manly physique in the mirror and suck your gut in to see if you have pecs/abs. (You don't.) Admire the size of your weiner in the mirror and scratch your privates.
Get in the shower.
Don't bother to look for a washcloth (you don't use one). Wash your face... wash your armpits... Crack up at how loud your fart sounds in the shower.
Wash your privates and surrounding area. Wash your butt, leaving hair on the soap bar.
Shampoo your hair (no conditioner), make a shampoo mohawk. Pull back shower curtain and look at yourself in the mirror.
Pee in the shower and rinse off. Get out, and fail to notice the puddle of water on the floor because you left the shower curtain hanging outside of the tub the whole time.
Partially dry off, look at yourself in the mirror, flex muscles, admire weiner again. Leave shower curtain open, wet bath mat on the floor, bathroom light and fan on.
Return to bedroom with towel around your waist. If you pass your wife on the way, grab your weiner, say something stupid, and thrust your pelvis at her.
Throw wet towel on the bed. Take 2 minutes to get dressed. Fart and go about your day.
