Consumer Reports says that the "Fusion"* works no better than your three-blade razor. I concur.

Sorry. The shaving brush is an affectation too far, even for me.

Yes. Anti-perspirant contains an active ingredient, generally a salt of some type, like aluminum chlorhydrate, that blocks the pores, impeding sweat. Of course, it doesn't hermetically seal your pits, so presumably if you covered your whole body it wouldn't kill you.

At least not quickly. I suppose if it were hot enough, and the appliaction was heavy enough, you would not be able to sweat enough to regulate your body temperature. In that case, it wouldn't really be the antiperspirant that killed you so much as the heat slowly poaching your organs.

Namaste.

ETA some look it up and others just know. Suck it, Thurgreed.

I shave as little as possible, and when I do, I want it over with, yesterday. I don't make a production of anything in the men's room. No exfoliating crap, no half hour long shits or moisturizer application. I spary the aerosol crap into my hand, slap it on my face, fire up the Sensor and get it done.

I hate personal hygiene work. Its like a house cleaning chore. Terrible waste of time.

Some things are worth the risk. After all, you gotta look sharp.

Ignore all that five-phase landed gentry crap from Pony. What I'm talking about is a tube of shaving cream. You squeeze some out, wipe it on your face and shave.

Unless you were to spray the foam directly from the can onto your face in big pillowy lumps without touching it, then drop the can on the floor grab your razor and start hacking away in a single, continuous and fluid motion, I can't see how you'd lose any time using the better stuff.
