The Dark Side of Corn Huskers Lotion

[Fnord5]

Which reminds me...I looked at the label of my Proraso Pre this morning while in the shower, and it just may be the most toxic substance known to man:

Aqua, Stearic Acid, Sorbitol, Glycerin, Camphor, Eucalyptus globulus, Potassium Hydroxide, Menthol, Parfum, Amyl Cinnamal, Coumarin, Eugenol, Geraniol, Cetearyl Alchol, Eucalyptol, Methylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Butylparaben, Methychloroisothiazolinone, Methylisothiazolinone.

Same 4 in the cream. I have my doubts as to weather this is what causes the tingle.

So we should use bacon fat for Pre/Post shave conditioner?

I had bacon for breakfast this morning. It might work since its organic. That Baconaisse might be useful as a beauty product too.

After all of this discussion... I thought the dark side of cornhuskers was the smell

Because of this damn thread, I've had Pink Floyd (not Blue Floid) stuck in my head for the past two days...

Probably useful for attracting stray dogs and cats as well.

Which song? "Pigs on the Wings", "Pigs (Three Different Ones)", or "Wish You Were Bacon"?

It's quite easy if you shave one of those hairless ones. Saves on razor blades too!

I have never shaved a cat but....

I HAVE shaved the cat at Bruna's in Chicago

My (serious) two cents is this: where natural substitutes that work well exist, or where you can do without artificial chemicals, great -- there should be no use of artificial chemicals where you don't need to use them: companies make great shaving soaps and creams without Sodium Lauryl/Laureth Sulfate and Yellow #5, for instance, so using them is sort of "cheating" in my book. I prefer natural products, free of manmade compounds where practicable. So, too, would I prefer my milk without dioxin or PCBs, thanks. But if cooking steak over charcoal introduces some carcinogens, well, don't eat steak that often and enjoy it when you cook it.

But neither should we look to lives without interferon, neosporin or triclosan. And if the very inexpensive Cornhusker's lotion makes your life more bearable -- especially if you can't afford the expensive stuff -- it has a place on retail shelves, too.

Redd Foxx had a great line that captures one side of this argument: "Healthy people are gonna feel stupid someday, lyin' in bed, dying of nothin'."

We're all mortal. Be smart but enjoy the ride.

1 drop of essential oil to 8 Tblsp of Corn Huskers = (Major Brand) Skin Food on the skinny. And it smells better than bacon grease!

Nothing smells better than bacon grease!

You aren't plastering the shave cream on your face and leaving it to stay on your face and get absorbed over time. The brief time the shave cream is on your face espcially in the shower won't leave any traces.
