Caffeine has an effect on skin, but the only one I'm aware of elasticity (potentially) and a slightly improved response to sun damage (which is why it's found in some sunscreens and skin creams).

I never understood the aversion to Zamac. My 37C had a great finish and, while I have moved on from DE's, if taken care of should outlive us all.

Friday morning: Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/Astra Green day 6 Palmira SC Nivea Cool Kick ASB Musgo Real Classic AS Splash No complaints about this shave even though the Astra Green is starting to get tired. This Palmira cream, from Serbia is fantastic - it has such a nice old school European scent, it lathers like crazy, and it has very good moisturizing. The Nivea Cool Kick balm has a lousy scent, (to me) but it does an excellent job of moisturizing and soothing the skin. The Musgo Real aftershave smells great and after the little sting you first get it feels very comfortable. Two passes left me almost, but not quite BBS.
Alas, reading fragrances does not rell me much: I understand it is pleasant! I'll have to check whick fragrances are available... Any suggestion appreciated! I like Floris 89, Knize Ten, Oxford & Cambridge, Klar Kabinett...
