I'm using Gilette's Satin Care for Women in Skin Soothing (the white bottle). Noxema also has one that I liked, but can only find occasionally (Hair minimizing). I've also had success with the Venus Breeze, the only problem being I hate paying $9-10 for three razor blades that don't last that long. However, it is amazing in a small dorm shower.

I have problems with most shave gels/creams, so I use Dove Body Wash instead. Most bodywashes makes good shave lotion.

I use bodywash to shave too. I shave standing up in the shower, and the lathered up shave gel would never stay in place. Because it was so heavy/dense (maybe I was putting too much on?), it would just run down my leg as I was trying to shave. Plus with bodywash, I can wash and shave all in one step.

As for what kind of lotions I use, I like Shiseido for my face. I recently found out that the Aura Science line sold at Victoria's Secret is made by Shiseido. I bought 3 bottles of face lotion at the semi-annual sale ($5 each). As for body lotion, I usually buy whatever's on sale as long as it's a brand I know (i.e. not the no-name watery stuff). I love scented lotions, especially any that smell like food. During the winter, the back of my hands were horribly dry and the only thing that made it better was L'Occitane hand cream.

I love the Clinique Moisture Surge Extra. I brought the tub along with me to rush once, and it was a face-saver for one of my sisters when she had an allergic reaction to something and broke out in hives. Plus, it feels light on my skin.

I use a lot of other lotions for everyday wear (I always carry the B&BW anti-bac lotion in my bag), but when I really have dry skin issues, I go back to the Clinique stuff.
