I've been using that in 10% concentration.
Hey Mike, I'm looking into emu oil after seeing you write about it on another thread, in relation to men's hair loss.
Have you seen visible hair regrowth, thickness, fullness, etc.? I am 27 and my hair line is just now starting to recede. I'd like to nip it in the bud, I'm currently taking saw palmetto extract.
How are you using the emu oil, in shampoo, do you apply it directly to the scalp, how much, and how often, and for how long do you do this?
Any advice would be great,
Thanks.

dont know about vaseline but baking soda is a good exfoliant (mix it with a cleanser) and do it once or twice a week max.

I usually use a soap free cleanser like this one:

Might go for something more organic. Haven't been moisturising much lately, need to get back into the habit. Have tried vaseline but don't like how it feels a bit greasy.

The granuales in baking soda do irritate your skin, but anything that exfoliates will be an irritant because it's taking off some of the dead skin and the stuff underneath is going to feel a bit raw to the touch. Nothing too bad, but it might sting a little after if you scrubbed it in hard.
Caligula, vasaline is pretty heavy but I've found that if you use only a tiny bit and rub it completely in the same way you would sunblock, it's not too bad at all.

Organic is best in my opinion. I get a lot of compliments on my skin. A few brands I like are Desert Essence, Alba, and Aubrey Organic, you can probably find at least one of the 3 at a natural foods store.
Green tea and pomegranite are very high in anti-oxidants, and they have been proven to help delay the aging process. Also good are aloe, jojoba oil, and facial masks with clay.

I tried Aubrey from whole foods, but the fucking product was drying me out. My face felt like it had been thru one of those old clothes dryers with the roller pins on it.
That's odd I've used their facial toner and moisturizers with great results, but never their facial wash.
Right now I use this all organic "anti-aging" face wash:

It's my favorite thus far.

Anyone have any suggestion for preventing or reducing the amount of razor irritation(razor burn and razor bumps) from shaving?

Well first off maybe switch whatever shaving cream or gel you are using. For me, using a nice razor with new blades is important. I know Mach 3 blades are expensive, but with my thick facial hair, I got to put a new one on after ever third or fourth shave. Follow up your shave with some kind of organic/natural after shave, or facial toner.

I use baking soda to exfoliate and then shea butter to moisturise. I have been experimenting with ACV (Apple Cider Vinegar) since Uncle Roosh said it got rid of his skin issues.
I don't have skin issues per se but I don't mind looking extra smooth in the face region.
I am monitoring skin and reaction from people as I rub down my face with ACV daily.

I went to Whole Foods Saturday to try and find a facial mask to help my skin. I have real oily, sensitive skin that always gets red and those masks have always helped me. Some gay guy working there recommended this shit. You mix a tiny bit up with water or apple cider and leave it on for about 20 minutes. I thought I mixed it up wrong because it gets very, very dry and hard after 10 minutes. Felt like my face was going to crack open. I didn't do any research but I asked my mom and she said this is a real popular one with girls.
Edit - it looks like it has great reviews

Huh. Couple drops of jojoba oil after shaving seems to be it for me, and that's working out well so far...
