A great daily styling & conditioning product; as a guy I wash and towel dry my hair then massage in a pea sized amount, then brush. You can replace your bathroom's collection of expensive "deep conditioning" products for this one tube. And it only costs a few bucks. Also, as others have mentioned, you can use it once a week if you prefer...twice a week, etc. depending on your needs.

I was given a bottle of this by the girl who cuts my hair; it retails for $13.99 in her salon. If she had not given it to me for free there is no way I would spend that much money for a bottle of shampoo. Having said that, it is a good product that cleaned my hair, left it manageable, and gave it a pleasant scent... I detected no significant change in "hair volume" after using it over the course of a month or so. If you have the bucks for a $14 bottle of shampoo then by all means, enjoy...

I have used a Neutrogena Body Wash (for acne) for twenty years now...it works !!!; I usually only use it about twice a week now for the occasional outbreaks on my back, shoulders, and chest because I find it a bit too strong for daily use. It is overpriced, and on occasion I have substituted a store brand with similar results. P.S. I wish Neutrogena would redesign the bottle, a pump perhaps.

I suffer from seborrheic dermatitis and my doctor gave me samples of this shampoo (along with others: neutrogena tar, various head & shoulders formulations, etc.) to help control my symptoms, along with prescription meds. DHS Zinc did a very good job at controlling my scalp itch but it left my scalp a bit dry. If you follow the directions (leave the lather in your hair for five minutes) it is quite effective overall; it is a bit overpriced at between $9-12.

Toms of Maine is a great shaving cream to take on a business trip, camping, a weekend trip, etc. It is a vegetable based cream so it doesn't foam up like traditional shaving cream out of an aerosol can. I like the mint scent which comes from natural plant extracts instead of petrol based chemicals. This product spreads out on a just-washed-face (I'm a guy ladies...) like "wet" lotion, again, thin compared to a foam but it gives excellent protection for a really close shave. I have very sensitive skin and find Toms a perfect fit to my morning shaving needs.

I was a Neutrogena Rainbath Gel user until they came out with a men's line of skin care products several years ago; you get the same great results of clean, soft skin with the added benefit that it smells great (more favorable scent for a guy) and you can use it as a shampoo as well. As for value, it is a bit overpriced, as is most of the Neutrogena line of products.

I am a big fan of Listerine Mouthwash and Listerine Pre-brush Whitening rinse. While I use the whitening rinse almost every day (it is peroxide based and you can feel it foaming away the film of plaque on your teeth and gums) to give my brushing an added boost, I reserve the mouthwash for cold and flu season to use as a gargle for relief of sore throat symptoms.

I suffer from seborrheic dermatitis and this product (recommended by my dermatologist) is very soothing to my itchy, inflamed scalp when I have flare-ups. Strong yet gentle; just be sure to avoid direct sunlight for a day or so after using if you have thinning hair / male pattern baldness...thankfully, I don't have to worry about that ...yet !!!

...my dermatologist suggested this product; I alternated with my prescription topical med (it's very drying) each night to balance out my treatment. I give it a thumbs up although I do not really know it's effectivensss strictly as a redness aid.

La Roche-Posay Anthelios SX Daily moisturizing cream with sunscreen
Overpriced...but a superior product.
I just purchased a tube to compare to my usual daily suncreen; supposed to provide protection from UVA's over a broader spectrum, as well as UVB's. Popular in Europe. It is however, not a "sports type" sunscreen so you must reapply after swimming, sweating, etc. I will use this on my face
