Title: Dove Sensitive Bar Soap & Clear Aloe Vera Gel(no alcohol)
Post by: jusbnme on May 15, 2008, 07:55:46 AM
What's up Sly Bros?  I started thinking after checking out and posting up on another thread.  I think it was the one about how much we spend now vs. when we had hair.  But I had mentioned how I use to use Dove bar soap to wash my face and head.  Plus shaved my face with it.  I got thinking about it and I remembered how good and close a shave it gave me.  Then I went back through some old threads and found a few where Warhawk mentioned it's what he used to use to shave the dome.  So I just finished up with a shower and shave.  I used the dove bar soap and washed the face and dome.  Then I lathered some more up real good on my head.  I took my Schick Extreme and went to work.  It was actually a really good shave.  Afterwards I gave the dome a good cold water rinse and then just applied some regular clear aloe vera gel.  It's a brand without alcohol.  It is a very smooth shave and feels great.  No tightness or drying because of the Dove soap.  I just wanted to experiment using these two things so I could how it would work.  Because now that I know it's a good shave I could actually save a lot of money if I made this my everyday routine.  I can get a four pack of the Dove soap at my local store for about $4 bucks.  One bar would last me about a month.  The brand of aloe vera I use is Fruit of the Earth and it only costs about $4 bucks for a big sized bottle.  Don't get me wrong, I love the Bald Guyz products I've been using, as well as switching up to the HeadBlade stuff once in a while, but if you can save money why not?  Just thought I'd pass it along.
