Dr Hauschka, anyone?

Life can be fun. I switched to Dr Hauschka products about two years ago, because the air on planes gave my face some interesting challenges. It has always worked well with my shaving routine. And now I know, why (irritatingly accurate blurb from Dr Hauschka Website below):

The daily routine of shaving can be tough on facial skin. Extra care with gentle, soothing, nourishing products can keep skin from being damaged or dried. Apply Cleansing Milk before your shave to protect your skin from irritation and help lubricate the razor blade. After shaving, mist with Facial Toner to help tone the pores, balance and refresh. If oily or blemished skin is a common problem, try Clarifying Toner instead. It also helps to heal ingrown hairs. If you experience any irritation from a rushed or heavy-handed shave, apply Rhythmic Conditioner, Sensitive to soothe tender skin.

Yes, I do still use Castle Forbes's pre and after shave. But I recommend Dr Hauschka's products notwithstanding. See if you can grab a sample somewhere.

Hmm, these look kind of expensive, but we spend money on so much useless stuff anyways :)
I think I'll give it a try next time I decide I need a new shaving product.

BE BERLIN i went to the web site and it says all the products you mention cant be found i did this on the 15 nov 09 i have terribly dry and irritated skin after shaving i would like to have some of those products you mentioned.

Hi there,

Fixed the links in the original post. The entry page is here: https://store.drhauschka.com/b2c/eco...N-lV2FACE.aspx.

Way to frau-frau for me. Water, soap, witch hazle and aftershave are sufficient.

I'm impressed, fccexpert. Ever tried shaving with a hone?

What's frau-frau?

I 'm not that good in Expert-speech.:shrug:

fiddly: small and awkward to do or handle
fluffy: a: Light or frivolous. b: Lacking depth or precision

All according to the Dictionary, Encyclopedia and Thesaurus - The Free Dictionary

Hmm, not sure I see the relation with Beberlin's product description.

Thanks,
Bart.

It isn't a comment against the products.It is more along the lines of adding extra steps to the process.

Some people believe all it should require is water, soap, a razor and aftershave.

Others, it is water, special soap, pre/post treaments, razor, inshave treaments, aftershave, colonge etc.

Hang on...just noticed you are from Belgium...."What's frau-frau?" :gaah:

Okay, "Frau" = a German married woman : wife —used as a title equivalent to Mrs.

So "Frau- Frau" = wife-wife :rolleyes:

I think the term that was being looked for was "Fru Fru"/"Frou-Frou"!!!!

1. very decorated or girly in nature
2. lacy or frilly in nature "Those pants are extremely fru fru."/"That skirt is so fru fru."
3. Derived from the phrase spelled "frou-frou" meaning fancy, elegant or very elaborate. "The people in the wealthy section of town shops at all of the fru fru boutiques and stores."
4. (adj) describing something that has a homosexual resemblance (mainly in males)
"That way he hugged him was fru fru" "His shirt makes him look fru fru"

Interesting. Well, truth be told, I don't find the man-man, Brokeback Mountain cowboy approach too appealing. Isn't diversity a wonderful thing?
