+1 for Ecco.

If you are an Ecco fan, they have a big display next to the food court in Northland Village Mall right now with no pair over 99 bucks. Its run by one of the shoe stores in the mall, and I think it ends Sunday. I buy 3 pairs every year when they have this and fill my shoe quota for the year. This is the 4th year they've done it I believe. This year I picked up a set of golf shoes, a pair of brown leather casual things, and a pair of black leather sorta dress / casual hybrid doodads. 300 bucks all in, at a retail store it would have been in the 6-700 range.

I do sometimes do this when I am having an electric razor day.

Still need to touch up in the mirror, but saves time.

I brush in the shower, while the conditioner is working.
I used to have my beauty-product levels quite low.
Toothbrush/paste
Sunlight for hair/body
Pitstick

Now, I've gone kinda gay, so my beauty product roster consists of:
Toothbrush/paste
Shampoo & Conditioner
Pear's bar soap
Pitstick.

Which one of you fags modern men will be the first to admit using Nivea face cream/under eye roll on or other metrosexual products?

To you 6 squirts-of-cologne-in-the-morning pricks: Stop. You don't smell good. You smell like you're trying to cover up all the boozing you did last night. If I get into another elevator with some wearing enough whoore-lure to make me start sneezing uncontrollably, I'm going to tear off his purse and beat him with it.

No face cream, but I will admit to using two conditioners and a leave-in spray conditioner after I'm out of the shower. My hair goes half-way down my back so it comes with the territory. My hair will get really dry and start having split ends and stuff even the day after having it trimmed without it.

I think I should just get dreads and be done with it.

Ha! my hair (medium length) was terribly dry, and actually had little dread-like knots at the back. The stylist couldn't comb through the hair, so I got it cut quite short. Apparently, dish soap, while getting your hair really clean, actually dries your hair out something fierce.
I've been on the conditioner since then.

I put lotion on my face after the shower because my skin gets really dry.

I go pretty homo with products. Well not bad. Most of it has to do with shaving, so I think that's acceptable.

Taylor of Old Bond Street makes the best men's wet-shaving products that I've ever tried.
I've got a couple tins of their shaving cream, some of their non-scented aftershave and sandalwood deodorant.
I also use a facial moisturizer, mainly because Calgary is so dry and I get little cracks on my cheeks that burn like the devil.
I also have some fancy pre-shave soap that I use in the shower before shaving.
Plus a Merkur safety razor and Vulfix badger hair shaving brush.

Standard conditioner, shampoo and toothpaste after that.

Not just products. Clothes, shoes, the way you talk...

I mean, no offense, but really...

No, you do mean offense, which is kinda sad.
