Q: My electric shaver smells! What is the best way to clean it out and what should I use to make it smell nice again?! (without damaging it!)

A: try rubbing alchohal to clean it. that might get rid of whatever makes it smell bad. if it still smells bad maybe try a sencted body wash. dont use any parfume on it because that will irritate your skin when you use the razor. or maybe get a new razor?

]]≫

Your aftershave also protects your skin. Since pores are opened by the warm water used during shaving, the aftershave closes them so that pollutants cannot enter and won’t clog your pores. It also disinfects your shaved face. Some aftershaves contain moisturizer. This gives back the moisture lost from using soap for shaving.

With a mission to see if that extra X chromosome really makes things different for girls, we hit the supermarket aisles, hair salons and call centre queues and found out that the price you pay often depends on your gender.

First up is a trip to the supermarket health and beauty isle where there were one or two surprises in store. When it comes to deodorant, razors, facial wash and shower gel in the same size and from the same manufacturer, it is in fact the girls who get the better deal. Comparing our men’s and women’s shopping baskets of seven items on sale at both Superquinn on Sundrive Road and on Tesco.ie, it’s men who pay the higher price for being clean, fresh-smelling and fuzz free.

I use a Remington Smooth & Silky Ultra wet/dry rechargeable shaver (WDF-6000) to shave my legs with. In the instruction manual it says to use soap or foam lather, and not to use skin lotion, nourishing cream, or shaving cream of the non-lathering


Gillette Satin Care gel.Gels have less alcohol than creams and dry you out less.They also do not dissolve like creams.Another great tip is to always use hot (as warm as u can stand it) water, its softens the hair and gives you a painless, closer shave.I
