Asset Management: Shaving


Face it: Shaving sucks.  It's time-consuming and rough on the mug.  Some guys are lucky enough to be able to grow respectable facial hair.  After 3 or 4 days, my stubble just looks silly. I've tried just about every shaving gel, lotion, foam, etc..., and they've all left something to be desired.  Until now. Tagging along with ms pix to Perch in Glen Park the other day, I noticed the Baxter of California skincare and shaving products.  Zoel, the owner, pronounced it the best shaving cream he had tried.  I have to agree.  Close and COMFORTABLE shave.  Something to do with the formula providing a barrier between face and razor.  At $16 (10 OZ) it's not cheap, but by no means outrageous. Plus it takes very little of the stuff to do the job.  Also iked the samples of face scrub, face wash, after-shave balm and skin lotion Zoel tossed in for good measure.  So while shaving still sucks, it's gotten measurably better. And hey, at least I don't have to wax...
