I came across a NEW men's grooming product called Nivea Active 3.
Here's the Wal-Mart ad introducing the product.
http://instoresnow.walmart.com/enhancedrendercontent_ektid73710.aspx
(FREE SAMPLE OFFER)
Product Description:
For men who want the convenience of a 3-in-1 cleansing product to fit their active lifestyle. An all in one cleansing product with advanced MicroTec-Technology (essential nutrients and high-tech polymers) that leaves you feeling clean and refreshed.A caring body wash, cleansing shampoo, and effective shaving gel...all in one!
Results:
Foaming formula removes dirt and sweat from both skin and hair Leaves skin feeling clean and comfortable Gives you a comfortable yet thorough shave Dermatologically testedFor best lather, massage onto wet hands, washcloth or sponge. Cleanse body and hair, then rinse. To shave, massage directly onto area to be shaved to form a rich, creamy lather.
MY Personal Review:
This product will leave behind a "silky" smooth, soft to the touch, NON-GREASY, brilliant shine on your scalp upon completion of your shaving session. Gel is thick enough to let your favorite razor glide across your head effortlessly, as it gives you a "bone close" shave (that I'm sure you'll just love), yet allows you to see where you're shaving. The product itself is somewhat of a semi-thick gel-like consistency that has an incredible light scent - but NOT overpowering!!
While this product can be used solo, I mixed it with a little bit of SHAVE SECRET and the results were of pure delight. It was one of those type of shaves where you look in the mirror afterwards and say..."WOW!! That felt GOOD!!"
Overall, I give Nivea a 5 Razor Rating (out of 5) for this one!!

Isn't that the stuff that Budda used to peel a strip of his melon off with his Headblade? He said it was super slick.

Nice review Noodles. Thanks!

Good review, but this product has been around for a while. I have used it myself and feel it's great for shower and shave, especially for those of you who do some body shaving or keep your lower regions clean. Like Noodles mentioned, this is really great for guys who want an all in one for the gym, or when you're in a hurry.
As far as shaving the dome, I do agree it works well, but I prefer HeadSlick or Bald Guyz.

Slick?...YES! (but I like that feature)

"Budda" tested product?...

Rite-Aid "in-store display" features it as a brand new item, but others say it's been around for a while.
Maybe it's just "new" in the New Orleans (and surrounding local areas). Who knows?
LOL- Might even be a old item "repackaged" to make all seem anew!!

(LOL)

Hmm.... maybe I ought to experiment with mixing the "all-in-one" w/a little HeadSlick!!

Don't get me wrong, sounds like good stuff. Just though it sounded like the same stuff. I wonder what the statute of limitations is on the term "NEW"? Guess if the package hasn't been opened it will always be new! ;D

Hmmm...Interesting point! Never thought about it from that angle before!! (https://www.slybaldguys.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi192.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fz316%2Fbettyboop6896%2FSmileys%2Fsmiley_confused.gif&hash=fc1a69cb8698c35c8b425f320552c30da6fa98a6)

Has anybody ever seen a product being advertised as "Not new but still good!" ? ???
