Only ever used E45 once, made a basic error at Disney.
Went on a log flume ride early doors, means strolling around with wet shorts for a few hours.
Chaffing you would not believe, agony. Anyway, back to the rented house, a generous application of said gunk in the appropriate places and next morning was ready for action.

It’s the action bit I’m struggling with.

I have used E45, which has merits:

But I switched to this 20 years ago.

Aqueous cream - Wikipedia

The main advantage is it is incredibly inexpensive, while doing the same job.
It was recommended to me by a GU doctor for washing the bishop.
Antiseptic soaps kill the germs including the nice ones,
but they cause dryness, and the nasty bacterial always recover first.
With aqueous cream you could eat your dinner off my knob.
As long as it isn't a piping hot vindaloo.
I'd draw the line at that.

£0.33 per 100 ml versus £2.94.
Do the math(s).
(It is NINE times more expensive.)

I use aqueous cream too. Cheap as chips and as you say, does a brilliant job.

Is that a Tardis in your back garden?

Or are you just pleased to see me?

Vicks Vapor run on the feet and between the toes. Fights fungal infection, soothes and moisturises and generally smells and feels fresh.
I swear by it.

You can get cheaper own brand versions which do exactly the same job.

With having recurring skin cancers removed for the past 6 years (one only a few days ago) , I think I’ll take the risk of a getting a few broken bones from osteoporosis than dying from metastatic skin cancer!

I use factor 50 as recommended by my Dermatologist even when it’s not sunny - it moisturises skin too - sun damage ages the skin especially if you are outside a lot as I am with my job.

That’s why there are vitamin D supplements

Why would you say that? Do you think only homosexual men look after their skin?
Several people have already described medical problems with their skin, but somehow you relate that to being gay?

Pop into an old folks home and see the effects of not looking after your skin.

I’d rather not be having the dressings changed on weeping sores before breakfast every day

I don't think you understand what gay means......

My GP has told me to get some. Don't suppose you know if there's anything that helps absorb them?

I don't. I just have a drink of water. Maybe ask the chemist?

I have used Nivea moisturiser for years, also use other sensitive skin products made by them.
When I was working on dusty building sites and houses being renovated I’m glad i started using moisturiser.

I don't think you understand the point of my comment.

They don't know the difference between male grooming and inviting someone out for a drink

Go on then

No, you're missing how CLEVER it was.
