The company I work for recently brought in visitors from a company that makes and sells products for dermatology. Their name - Dermailine! Hmmm... they must have noticed how our skin is now in need of TLC. Now this was a free consultation with little giveaways and of course their hope that we would be willing to buy some products of theirs. Since the product on sale was good yet not expensive, yes, most of us got at least 1.
"What did they have?" you ask. Soap! All kinds of soap. Soap to make you whiter. Soap to even out your skin - pigmentation I think was the word she used. Soap for those who are older and need more moisture. BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!
There was also a table full of other products for sale. Sunblocks, astringents, creams, and ... a masculine wash! Now, I know marketing has been going for differentiating the products for men from that for women - reverse of the 80's unisex trend - but this ...I just had to laugh.
I guess this came to mind because as I listened to the RX DJ's talking about the latest product of their sponsor - a feminine wash that's supposedly cool - I could actually hear this guy rolling his eyes or trying to get this segment over as quickly as possible. Uncomfortable topic for men apparently. What would he say to a wash of his own I wonder. At the rate things are going, men will have as big a kikay kit as we women do - less the stuff for menstruating since unless a miracle happens, men won't need that.
