I definitely need to snag an alum block somewhere.  Do you have suggestions for where to buy?  I'm in the USA.

Sorry to jump in but I use the Razorock brand and its pretty awesome IMO

My head seems to really like dimethicone.  Totally random discovery but the dimethicone lotion I have is non-greasy but still keeps everything soft but not too shiny.  As my shadow becomes less noticeable I'm more comfortable w/ a more matte look.

Powder works well also--baby powder is fine, and won't make you look ghostly if applied sparingly.  Though you can find a lot of sunblock included, anti-acne, anti-spot, more luxurious powder options in the makeup aisles if you dare.  :)

Is matte for men free of parabens? I tried using headlube matte for awhile, which worked fine, but it has parabens in it. Parabens are estrogenic compounds that have some undesirable effects, particularly on men. No wonder I was having so much trouble losing the winter weight!


Anyone tried sephora's Origins zero oil instant matte finish?

To reduce the shine I'm using a sebum-normalizer (don't know how to call it exactly in english  ??? ) made by Filgi, it's hydrating and make my head look "satin" for hours. It's a little bit expensive but I don't use it every day.

The Matte for Men lotion is Paraben free
