Advantages: Slows facial hair growth, revives skin
Disadvantages: Expensive

Clarins Men Skin Difference is a product designed for two purposes: 1. To soften facial hair and slow down new hair growth, which is intended to make shaving much easier 2. To moisturize the skin and revive dull skin I bought Skin Difference a few months ago for £26.50 from Boots, after seeing an advert in Men's Health. I had shopped around but all Clarins products are the same price in each store, so I opted for Boots because you get Advantage ...
...is quite large for the size of the product, which is a small pump action container, with two chambers for each of the two liquids, each chamber containing 15ml. £26.50 is expensive for moisturizer, but I think it is worth it. Skin Difference comes with a couple of instruction books in multiple languages which you should read. However if you can't be bothered the main point to take away is that you should apply this at night, just before going to ... Read review

Advantages: is quick and easy to use
Disadvantages: isnt the best smelling

I was very pleased to finally find a product like this on the market that was so easy to use, and it wasnt expensive either! To use this gel, you simply have to squirt a small amount onto wet skin and lather up before shaving. The gel becomes foam when lathered up, and is removed when the razor glides over your skin. This is also a good benefit as it shows exactly where you have shaved. It gives great protection, and reduces the risk of cutting ...
...i would say is average. Its not a horrible smell, but its not the best ive ever smelt. If they did the same stuff in a different scent, i would look into that one in preference to this. The gel is, however, good value for money. The foam in the can lasts a long time, as it doesnt need much to cover both your legs. Its a good gel that provides a good, close shave, and it is suitable for sensitive skin too. If you want a quick solution that will ... Read review

Advantages: includes a little tube of soothing cream, needed for the BURNS
Disadvantages: doesnt take ANY hairs off, leaves skin red and sore.

I have used a few of these sorts of creams before and never got perfect results but most at least took a few hairs off, but this cream did nothing of the sort. I was careful to make sure i got the timing EXACTLY right, and when i wiped the cream off that was the only thing that came off, it didnt take ANY HAIRS OFF MY SKIN AT ALL, i looked carefully at the cream to see but theres wasnt one that i could see it took off. Ive never been a real fan of ...
...have reddish skin on the areas i used it on. ONLY pro to this is that you get a finishing cream of cocoa butter and vitamin E, which slightly soothes the area, but you can get a pot of cocoa butter anywhwere. apart from that being included, this product is useless. ... Read review

Advantages: good smell, actually works!
Disadvantages: -

...I first heard about the Veet Rasera Bladeless Kit when a kind worker in Boots handed me an advertising leaflet for it. It made me think..I could be hair free without a blade or pain? It's a miracle! I went straight to the hair removal section and picked up a can, I bought the lotus milk & jasmine for normal skin (the one in the pink can). 150ml for £6.95, I thought that was quite reasonable. Most of these "new and improved" - which I don't understand, ...
...time? - hair removal creams usually either don't work or smell like toilet cleaning chemicals, after first opening this, I realised that it didn't have the same smell of a newly cleaned toilet, but that of jasmine, nice :). I squirted some of the thick, white cream into my hand and started liberally applying it to my legs, the smeel was strong, but it was nice. After washing my hands straight away (like the can says to), I put on some music, what ... Read review

Advantages: Clear. Doesn't dry out my skin. Long lasting.
Disadvantages: Flip lid fills with water. Difficult to see if you've applied it.

Having got fed up of the normal foaming shaving gels drying out my legs I thought I'd try this. It cost somewhere between £3 and £4 (I can't remember exactly). And whilst that seems expensive it has lasted me a long time. The packaging can be seen in the picture, but two things I feel are of particular note are that you can see how much product you have left which I always find handy. The second thing is that if you leave it standing in your shower ...
...water, which is not so good. The product itself is easy to apply but it took a while to work out how much to use as it doesn't really foam so it's hard to see if you've put enough on. However after some experimentation I discovered that you don't really need much at all. As it doesn't foam, it's really easy to see where you're shaving and I found this helped as I used to cut the area around my knees when I used foaming gels but I haven't had that ... Read review
