"For Men" products

I use this shampoo not because it's "for men", but because when I was moving out years ago my mom picked it up while I was moving, and it worked good and doesn't cost a lot. So I just keep getting it. No reason to change.

That's the only "gender specific" thing I use outside of clothes.

eh I use a bar of soap for washing. Its not really a I'm too manly for facial cleansers and shit thing though. Its more of a I'm a cheap bastard that wants to spend his cash on other shit.
 
I use womens deoderant, Degree. I can't find the original anymore, they now have a selection of different scents, but the 'sheer powder' smells the closest to the original. And they now have seperate man scents, but I think they stink.
 
The "For Mens" products and advertising is the same marketing BS for women products. They put that statement on a product in hope it will garner extra interest so they can sell the item at a premium. Same reason they do that crap for "Women" products. Really? Secret PH balanced for a woman?

Like most men, I go with what works, what's cheapest, and what I'm used to. I use the same deodorant I've been using for the past 17 years. I buy whatever toothbrush is a buck or less, though I try to stay away from the girly colored ones. I use the same cheap ass hair products I've always used since they work.

Now every so often, some thing disappears and I have to go hunting for something new. Yah sometimes what I buy I may not like so I try something else. I don't gravitate to "For Men" junk though nor anything with a premium price. I just work my way up from what is cheapest until I find something I like.
 
For face, I use Biotherm Hydra-Detox or High Recharge Energy Cleanser. Then, I apply Zirh Correct and Protect. Once in a while, I'd use BodyShop Maca Root Face Scrub.

I've used many of Biotherm, Clinique, Zirh, and Clarins stuffs and I prefer Biotherm.
 
Nivea for men aftershave Lotion.

Nivea and me get along very well. High quality lightly perfumed products.

Unisex shampoo like Infusium or Matrix.

Dove Bar soap - none of those loofah scrubbers or liquid fruity body soap
 
I just get the standard stuff 90% of the time, unless there is some sort of deal for the 'for men' variety.

Unscented Dove bar soap and whatever shampoo I'm using at the time (Pert+ for now, but have a bottle of H&S coming up).
