Hi everyone , I know what you are thinking, she's blogging about men's products when she is a blogger of generally fabulous things????What is the world coming to????
Yes, I know it sounds strange but am blogging about it because it makes my bloke feel fabulous and I feel like blokes shouldn't always be left out of the fabulous-ness
And this MAN fabulous blog is about Body Shop's Maca Root Shave Cream
http://thebodyshop.co.uk/skincare/mens-face-care/for-men-maca-root-shave-cream.aspx
Now this is what Body Shop says it should do 'A rich cream to perfectly prepare the skin for a close and comfortable shave, whilst conditioning and moisturising skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth. Suitable for all skin types. Ideal for men looking for a first rate shave whilst energising the skin and helping to improve its condition'
So I bought this as a little present for my boyfriend thinking 'ahh what a lovely girlfriend I am buying my partner something to pamper himself with' and the first thing he says when he gets it was 'blimey bit expensive isn't it, I'd NEVER pay that much for shaving cream' (That's gratitude for ya girlies!).
Ok he has a bit of a point it is £5.50 for 125ml (which comes in an easy squeezy tube) or £8 for 200ml (which comes in a scoopy tub) but if you have a Body Shop card you do get 10% of all purchases and sometimes a bit more if they have some kind of special offer going on. But my boyfriend is the pick up the cheapest shaving cream he can find from the supermarket kind of guy, doesn't care about brand as long as it says shaving cream/gel/whatever on the can he's happy :-\
Anyway I let him get on having his little shave and I'd say my partner has pretty normal blokey skin? And his initial feedback was, easy to apply from the squeezy tube and makes an easy shave and he didn't have some crazy skin reaction so that's a bonus! So far so good :-)
But the main thing that this cream has going for it...I could not believe how SOFT my partner's skin was. As they say, it was as smooth as a baby's bum! Sounds a bit freaky but I could not stop touching his face! Even HE kept going round to people going 'Feel my skin it's so lovely and soft! It's this great shaving cream from Body Shop!'
I think all these women's moisturisers on the market need to take note because I have personally never come across a skin moisturiser for me that makes my skin as soft as that shave cream makes my boyfriends'. Not even the expensive ones. Maybe I should try rubbing the shave cream into my face and blog about my skin after a few weeks
anyways....
NOW I have changed his perspective on the world and he will buy no other shaving cream! He is a reformed man!
And now I have to make trips every 3 months to Body Shop (so it does last quite a while as my partner shaves every day) to replace it otherwise he just won't shave!
Anyways I will be blogging about some female skin products I have bought recently from Body Shop in a few weeks after I have let them (hopefully) work there magic so keep an eye out :-)
LOTSA LOVE!!!!
