Has anyone else tried the Matte For Men products? I just started using them and find they are much better than anything else on the market...they are very easy to use and effective...
Thanks-Teambean
-
I haven't heard of those products. Has anyone else?
Feel free to do a review on them and I'll post it up in the blog.
By the way, welcome to Sly Bald Guys!!
-
welcome team bean. where can we find it at.
-
Thanks for the welocme guys!
The only place I ccould find the products was at www.matteformen.com. I think it is only availlable through the site.
-
While I have not tried it, I do want to extend a warm welcome to the group, Teambean!
-
Welcome to the club, Teambean!
-
Thanks for letting me know about Matte for Men. I wrote them a letter letting them know I would review their product if they sent me some free samples. ;D
-
damn T. is that all it takes to get free stuff? i want free stuff. i can do product reviews. hook a brother up.
-
Paul, the problem is that to do a product review you have to be able to write well, and... well... *sigh* we just don't do it, Paul. :'(
-
You guys write well enough to do a review. Next time we hear of a new product I'll give you guys the opportunity to do the review. Or, if you like a product you try, write a review on it and then email the company a link to the review. I'm sure they will reward you with some free stuff. Heck, Noner did the same thing with the Bald Guyz line.
-
i am up for it. if we can check out some new stuff and maybe help someone in the process that is just a bonus.
-
I just don't find the new stuff, until someone wrote a review about it, then it is too late. ;)
-
I could use some free stuff too! Count me in! If you do get samples from Matte For Men, let me know if you think it is as good as I do...in the interim my wife just ordered more shave gel as a gift for me (I guess thats considered "free" ...at least for me!)

Will do Teambean!

I recently tried two of Matte for Men products. I tried the shaving gel and the head care lotion.
They apply well and the best part is that the lotions are not sticky. I also like the fact that they are made with a lot of natural ingredients.

Yeah, but Garner is a Raider fan...J Lo is not.

That's why I like J. Lo more...LOL!! Just kidding, just kidding.

You can kid all you want, my Raiders blow chunks right now.

Ya can't beat an honest football fan. After the Cowboys last regular season game I said they wouldn't make it past the first round in the playoffs. They damn near proved me wrong though. Anyhow, even if they had made it they wouldn't have deserved it. Don't get me wrong, I've been a Dallas fan for years, but when you suck, you suck.
-
Yeah, I'm also a big Dallas fan, but this year was not their year either.
-
As a kid, huge oilers fan. Remember the buffalo debacle like it was yesterday. But they moved. So I became fans of teams that had players I liked watching: on offense peyton manning and the colts. On defense at the time, the buccaneers(when dungy was there).
Now we got a new team 5 years ago, but I never really got into them. And then they insult my intelligence after passing on Derrick Johnson(who was not supposed to fall to pick 13) and esp Vince Young. Now I root for all the Horns playing in the league, and my favorite of them is the Titans because Vince is my favorite player.
And I know they missed the playoffs, but with Kerry Collins starting the first 3 games, they could have been considered the worst team in football. With Vince starting, 8-5. And people called him a "project." Sure his stats weren't always impressive, but the guy is a winner. And I loved it in houston when the game goes to OT, and Vince stomps all over the texans hearts with a 39 yard game winning TD scramble.
It just made me happy in the sense he stuck it to them, but sad that he should be playing at home in Houston, and he's not.

I received my Matte for Men products yesterday and used them this morining. I will put up a review later tonight... ;)
-
Just used the Shave Gel tonight....smooth

Business first. I had a dermatologist appt. last week to get a mole removed. The doctor instructed that I wear sunscreen every day on my head, face and ears. I said, you mean like when I go to a baseball game..... etc... She said 'no, every day even if that is just going to and from work.'
With that said I got some Neutrogena sunscreen that seems like it is going to work pretty well. I'll go check out the Matte site to see what their stuff looks like.
Now.... what about those LSU Tigers whooping up on the Irish? Sorry Irish fans. :o)
And what about my Saints and they are gonna do go Philly! :o)
It's a pretty good season for football in Louisiana.

Welcome back Clay!!
I'm about to post my review on the Matte for Men products. You'll want to pay attention to the review on the lotion.
-
Clay-
My derm actually told me originally about Matte For Men ....a derm friend of his actaully was the Dr who originally tested it
Hope it helps

You can see the review of the lotion here: http://www.slybaldguys.com/smf/index.php?topic=633.msg7873#msg7873 (http://www.slybaldguys.com/smf/index.php?topic=633.msg7873#msg7873)

Read the reviews...I would pretty much agree although the lotion didnt make my skin feel tight. With the shave gel, even though it is 2.5 oz...I notice that I only use a little at a time since it is concentrated...thanks for your thoughts!
-
I have been using two different products, over the last three weeks of Sly-ness. 1.) Neutrogenia for Men Triple protection, SPF 15, and now 2) L'Oreal Men's Expert Healthy Look - SPF 15 and a little DHA (tanning stuff). The tanning effect is very mild but made the winter transition with the bald look a little more smooth. They both work well as an after shave cream and provide protection. I might try this Matte for men since both the above give a good shine, although I sort of feel that is an attractions of a clean pate.

I dont know Andy...to me the shine makes me feel like my head is oily/dirty...I like a non shiney look. I tried the 2 products you mentioned before using Matte For Men and they seem very sticky and I hated the shine. The other thing is that they are only SPF 15 vs Matte For Men's 25...a big difference in protection according to my derm.
To each his own I guess...

I liked that it made my skin feel tight. It gave me an impression that my skin would look more smooth.

I just started using Loreal Men's Expert products. They have a great non-oily facial moisturizer with an anti-paleness agent. I have been using on my face and scalp. It is called "Loreal - Men's Expert (line) - Healty Look SPF15". I have really pale skin during the winter months so I find this really helpful. Because I have a dark beard, during the winter months my boss sometimes gives my crap by asking me if I shaved today...or if I want to borrow a razor that works. About a month ago I was really pale. Now since I have been using Loreal Men's Expert products I have what appears to be a nice natural summer tone to my face and scalp.
Here is the website if you are interested in checking them out. I get mine at CVS, Walmart, or Brooks.

:XX and I guess I have to jump on the junky team train too....
I have been a life long OSU fan (as you can tell by my avatar) and lets just say that we choked on the 8th...to top it off MY WIFE is a Gator! Talk about living with this the rest of my life!!
I have been in Tampa, FL since 99 so I adopted the Bucs when I moved from the OH-IO (never could grasp the browns or bengals).
Lets just say with the #3 pick the Tampa Bay Bucs select, receiver, Calvin Johnson from Georgia Tech....
Although they need O-Line help!!! and Joe Thomas from UW wont fall to us.

I dont know guys...I always thought it smelled like vanilla ...which is a nice change.
