You can read the full article here and discover the alternatives that are suggested for each category. Men, your largely Gillette based results are also included here. The aul Nivea for Men gets a mention too and of course Clinique for Men. So all's as it should be so.
Let us know what you think. I can tell you right now what I think of one of the winners. HOLIDAY SKIN! Why lord, why? All we needed was for Head & Shoulders to be winning an award and I woulda been like a woman possessed.
But, Holiday Skin aside, I was quite pleased to see a few of my favourites made the cut.
