My mate seems to think that 'all men use moisturising products'. Do you? Page 7

    Yes. I look good. It's not gay, it's just as sensible as drinking enough water.

    I also pluck my eyebrows and shave my bollocks.

    I drive an automatic 'cause I'm too cool to change gears.

    I'm using that at the moment too. Mainly because it was half price, but I rather like it.
    Yeah, its got a nice texture and it smells lovely.

    Yes you have, on your elbow!

    This winter I started getting dry, cracked skin around my knuckles.
    A bit weird as it's the most mild and wet winter I can recall.
    I keep forgetting to put soemthing on it though, so I go through my days with dry, crackled skin around/between my knuckles.

    Ha, me too. Sadly, it's not as good as the Nivea Rehydrating moisturiser that I normally use

    I admit to using some of the Lush products but they are manly as they have ash in and are black and smell like jelly babies.

    But not moisturizer.

    After every shave I will use some sort of moisturiser or skin food, simply because if I don't my face will dry and crack up and feel like it's setting in cement.

    As a result of this I see it as a necessity really, like washing your hands after taking a crap (for most of us anyway).

    I use Olay daily, and it must have done something as people regularly think I look younger than I am.
    Plus I have no doubts about my sexuality so don't need to worry about whether people think I am gay or not.

    Let me tell you something. Do not fear male grooming. Anything worth maintaining needs work. It is not beneath you.

    Personally, I've always moisturized. As a person of colour, many of us learn to do so from an early age, in order to maintain our skin.

    If you are a pastey white skin dude, there's less need for you to do this, unless you are sun bathing. Saying that, applying lotions, oils and such only enhance your skins, making it better for the years ahead.

    As a 'pasty white skin dude', I started using moisturiser as a teen when I'd dried my face to fuck with over use of Biactol and Clearsil and other spot treatments. Using moisturiser actually seemed to help the zits calm down a bit.

    If you have dry patches/cracking going on, you could try Comfrey Oil - with the proviso that you must read up about it and use it with due care and attention. It's gangbuster stuff.

    You've got it backwards. "Black doesn't crack", it's the pasty white skin that shows the wrinkles.

    I've been mosturising my face since I can remember, if I don't then my face feels tight as my skin dries out.

    Paranoia perhaps but i'm convinced that the mosturiser has caused a problem that only mosturiser can solve. A scam! ...especially as I only get dry skin on my face, which happens to be the only skin I mosturise.

    My hands used to crack in the winter until I switched to using soap instead of liquid detergents to wash them, which I ascribe to the left-over glycerine in the mix. I'd recommend trying that first. Though I'd hope it would do something for the flakey skin and rashes I have on other parts of my body, but it doesn't have such a great effect there. I'll look into trying out comfrey oil myself.

    I feel that moisturizing to prevent drying and cracking is just fine, because it's unsightly to the rest of us.

    Moisturizing to keep your youthful looks is for the ladies, though.

    And that's that!
