Metrosexual toiletries for men who are in touch with their feminine side, but not many females feminine sides

Aftershave balm hydrates the skin after a shave.

Face scrub revitalises skin and gets rid of impurities.

Aftershave Balm sounds less 'gay' than a bloke saying he's using moisturiser

Gilette aftershave balm smells gorgeous and makes your skin go really smooth, my fella shaves his head and then uses that

Women love a good smelling man, it doesnt mean youre gay, just well presentable

Your friend can't go to Boots?

I use face scrub if I haven't shaved for a while to "soften my beard" and make the shave easier. It also clears your skin up and clears the pores.

I don't use after shave balm as it can be harsh and will generally have alcohol in! Instead I use Clinique Post Shave healer to heal skin and prevent shaving rash and it works a treat!

To compensate for this behaviour, I spend a lot of time talking about cars and power tools whilst scratching my *****!

At least you will look younger than your mates, who don't bother.
btw, why do men scratch their *****?

It's relaxing and you know they are safe when they're in your hand!

Most of my mates, if not all, use products like this. And they don't all drink Alcopops, either!

A friend of mine has a bathroom cabinet resembling the cosmetics department of Selfridges. His success with the ladies is phenomenal!

Of course, if you're a REAL MAN like some on this forum, even blowing your nose or putting your hand in front of your mouth when you cough makes you effeminate!
