Bjorn Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Just an update but I've done some research on this and I know women like a well-groomed guy - and this INCLUDES moisturizing and eyebrow plucking. Obviously I'm not going to overdo this, but having spent over £50 in Boots today I'm willing to give a few products a go and will report back here on my findings. Among the stuff I got:Biore "Ultra" Nose Strips (£7) Grooming Kit (clippers, tweezers, nail scissors) Facial washes (Zirh Clean - Facial Wash) Facial scrubs (Task New Skin Face Scrub, ) Toners (looking forward to this one, got mid-range "Korres Hamamelis Cleansing and Tonic Lotion") Moisturizers (chose the "Zirh Protect" - Environment Defence Moisturiser, £20 this cost me!) There's loads of stuff out there guys, let's hope my money's not gone to waste. hahaha, think u just answered you're own question there quadders, think you're deffo at least working for the other team ocasionally, if not permanently... Bi-sexual springs to mind.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadrant Posted May 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Well over the next 7-10 days I'm gonna try these for the benifit of males on the JJA messageboard, and tell you all what I think. And what Piranha thinks as well - hopefully she'll notice the difference too. Hang on, Bjorn now let's get this straight - I am not gay! (I'm taking being bi-sexual as being gay as well, because it just is). I take it you're one of these "shower only" persons too? Have you ever tried any of this stuff? Don't mock it if you haven't - if it's all a load of bollocks, then I'll come back here and say, but I'm willing to try, so shuddup! :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Kane Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 How selfless of you Quadrant, putting out £50 just for our benefit. That in itself is a very metrosexual think to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadrant Posted May 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 No sir, it's just Christian generosity. Unless it's for a woman, then that's being a clever metrosexual :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it you're one of these "shower only" persons too? Have you ever tried any of this stuff? :wink: Yes bi-sexual means you are gay too mate. Unlucky. haha, well yes im a shower only person (as in our student house we only have a shower...)! Ive not tried the crap uve listed there, moisturiser for my dry skin is about as far as it goes....

Quadrant Posted May 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Ive not tried the crap uve listed there, moisturiser for my dry skin is about as far as it goes.... If you have dry skin then I've got some tips for you: Use a gentle facial wash that won't dry the skin further. Use a facial scrub only once a week to remove dead cells but don't rub too hard or for too long. Use a good moisturiser twice a day, though you already do this I presume? Avoid shaving foams and soap that will dry the surface layer of the skin. Use sun protection of at least factor 15 when ever you are outside. Drink plenty of water (beer and wine don't count!) to prevent dehydration. Take fish oil capsules daily to provide essential fatty acids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadrant Posted May 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 That emoticon is reason enough for this thread being given legendary status Well considering Bjorn is at Derby University, it's strange he should call me gay considering the emoticon's URL: http://..../emoticons/cityofderby/gay.gif :roll: Chrissie what do you think of all this?

Max Kane Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 I'm not gona start saying who's gay and who's not , you two can work that out for yourselves, i just thought it was a superb emoticon to use in that scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadrant Posted May 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 I'm sure you're not gay, Mr Bailey, but I find it incredulous that both of you aren't supporting me on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissie Brown Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 I think it's hilarious. However it is one thing for a man to smell nice and to take a pride in his appearance but l think it is a bit over the top using these other tonics, creams etc. Sounds a bit suspect.

Neuro Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Are you really being serious about this Quadrant? Would be very interested in all your findings, especially about the, er... "toner". Very nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quadrant Posted May 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Look at Beckham - he's not gay!? Though he admits to liking "being admired" by both men and women. I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with more male attention but female attention, yes, take care of yourself, and there it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quadrant Posted May 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 I've had enough of this - once I've tested all this stuff, and got reported back here, then you have every reason to slate me if it's rubbish.

Max Kane Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 This thread is nuts, i've completely lost track of what's going on now. I've even been called 'incredulous' the shock! Go for it Quadrant test the products but i have to say success or no success i won't be referring to you as 'the king' at any point, and nor shall i be spending £50 on aforementioned 'beauty' products Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
