    I use the mach 3 turbo champion because it's red. Although if I could find something better I would switch in a heartbeat because Gillettes automotive ripoff campaign is so damn annoying (WTF is with the NITRO razor?) Turbo was bad enough, (and ripping off the M3 brand) but the ads for the nitro are beyond belief.

    Your wife lets you borrow that huh, well then ask her how to turn down the vib, and maybe get her to teach you the right action. But if I was you I would keep that info to yourself

    American crew shaving cream! Awesome for sensitive skin, or neutrogena shave cream.

    and...now THIS here is the key...

    Skintimate shave gel...YES it is a womens product, but it offers more moisture, a closer shave, and smells great (Vanilla is the one I use)...plus it gives more protection against nicks and cuts...
    wer to the womens shave gel users, oceania for me!

    I find it kind of funny that you guys are so pro-gel and against foam so much. Did you even realize that the gel turns to foam as soon as you lather it on? It's just a marketing gimmick, but I still use it anyways.

    The red one is the only way to go, the silver one gets the big (even though they are the same) the riced out versions are better!

    that vibrating razor does work
    ^

    I have the nitro one, it is an unreal shave. At first I was hesitant to actually try and shave with it, however now after seeing the results this thing is definately worth the money. The nitro P4Wn5 any other razor

    Only reason I use it too. I never really found that much difference between most razors I tried. Quattro was alright. Those Mach 3 razors just go that extra bit closer.

    ^ Yes any walmart will be able to help you

    They have a machine that you can get and attach it to a bottle of cream that keeps it hot whenever you need it.

    Or you could go to the phone book and call barber shops, I know the one in westmarket square/signal hill does.

    most of the gel's have aloe in it where most of the foams dont, so its better for the skin.

    Wanna know a trick from the ladies...Put a little bit of very thick hair conditioner(herbal essecences works good) under your shaving cream. You will get the smothest shave ever. Iv'e been doing it for years on my legs. The conditioner also protects more then the shaving cream or gel alone, so less irritation.

    Women's shaving gel is definitely the shit. Anybody's who's run their hands along a lady's smooth, silky thighs can attest to this. Oooh baby!

    Anytime I go travelling with lady friends, I don't even bother packing the shaving gel! Hahaha!
