rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - I've been using various pomades and fibers for a couple years. When a new stylist suggested (and used) this Aveda Men Pure-Formance Liquid Pomade on my hair, I was intrigued: A liquid pomade? What's the deal with liquid pomade? Would...

Better than drugstore, but not the best

Sat, 9 Feb 2008 18:59:27 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author colol - I'll admit it's probably not fair to Anthony Logistics to have tried their Shave Gel for Men after discovering Jack Black's Beard Lube. With Anthony trying to establish itself as the premium men's brand, and with prices to match, it seems only...

Oh God, the burning!

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author colol - Among the many "problem solvers" Anthony Logistics produces and sells is Ingrown Hair Treatment. Suggested for problems with both ingrown hair and razorburn, Ingrown Hair Treatment's stated objective is to drive one irritation out of your life. The...

The King of Shaving Creams

Thu, 17 Jan 2008 13:31:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author colol - The holy grail of every man's grooming arsenal is the shaving cream. Sure, the quality of the razor makes a difference in how well your shave goes, but it's the lubricant between blade and face that gets all the action. Like most guys, I'd seen it all...

May be the best I've tried yet

Thu, 17 Jan 2008 00:01:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author colol - Welcome to another installment of my lecture—uh, I mean epinion—series regarding men's skin care products. Joining us today is Jack Black's moisturizer offering, Double Duty Face Moisturizer. In the Beginning... Jack Black's a little...

Method Tub and Tile Spray All Scents: Adios harsh chemicals... Kind of...

Mon, 15 Oct 2007 21:09:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - When I first heard about Method from a friend, I was skeptical. I had been using Scrubbing Bubbles and Lysol since I was a wee lad assigned the chore of cleaning the family bathrooms. They worked. That was their whole raison d'etre. Why did we put up...

PureVision Toric contact lenses: Decent, Albeit Pricey Lenses

Wed, 10 Oct 2007 03:14:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - With my last eye appointment, the doc decided to shake things up: Let's try the new PureVision Torics, she said. My previous optometrist had also tried to wean me off my traditional Acuvue Torics due to the advances in lens technologies, but at that time...

Reynolds Wrap Release Non-Stick Aluminum Foil: Truth in advertising!

Mon, 24 Sep 2007 18:59:44 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - We've all experienced it. You cook something delicious-sounding only to massacre it when it comes time to serve: It's stuck. You pry gently, you shove, you scream until your food moves. And then you spend hours trying to soak and scrub the remnants from...

Go Wild, It'll Hold

Sun, 4 Mar 2007 18:04:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - I'm generally more an au naturale kind of guy when it comes to my hair, but I sometimes want to try something a little wilder. It was the latter desire that brought me to Garnier's Extra Strong Fiber Gum Putty, which promises you can go crazy with your...

Passable Men's Facial Moisturizer

Sun, 20 Aug 2006 16:12:11 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author colol - Having suffered severe sunburns early in life (and ending up looking more aged than I'd care to), protecting and improving the health of my skin has become an important goal. To that end, I've incorporated both a face wash and a facial moisturizer into...

Good Bargain PDA, But Getting Dated

Wed, 16 Mar 2005 17:39:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - I've been in the market for a new PDA for a while now. As a point of reference, my previous PDA is an original Handspring Visor Deluxe. A real dinosaur by today's standards. After finding palmOne's current offerings rather anemic, it was off to the races...

D-Link Express EtherNetwork DI-604 Router: Inexpensive router with advanced features

Sun, 12 Dec 2004 20:55:57 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - After tiring of the loud drone of an old computer's fans, I went shopping for a dedicated router for my DSL connection. I didn't need WiFi or pretty colors or any of the other bizarre features some manufacturers are offering. But I did need the ability...

Good, Cheap Photo Printer

Mon, 6 May 2002 21:01:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - Not too long ago, I began the search for a printer capable of churning out photo-quality prints much better than the Canon BJC-4100 I've been using since the early 90s for general-purpose needs. Being a university student on a limited budget, a decent...

Music's never been better

Fri, 3 May 2002 03:39:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author colol - I'll admit it. When I first heard of the iPod, it was when everybody was busy mocking Apple for calling an MP3 player "groundbreaking". But the more I read about the iPod, the more I realized it truly was groundbreaking. And when the Apple Web Store...

Sony PlayStation 2 Slimline Console: Well worth $199

Tue, 25 Dec 2001 19:57:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - With the runaway freight train of success that was PlayStation, Sony built up the hype again with their PlayStation 2 ad campaign. And though it wasn't a blatant PR move, the PS2 shortage sure helped add to the hype.

Take one part PSX, throw...

TV, your way. Really.

Tue, 25 Dec 2001 19:10:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - It's a what?

Personal Video Recorder. Digital Video Recorder. Pick one -- they may be different acronyms, but they both boil down to the same thing. A nifty little computer to stuff in your entertainment center that records TV for you...

Impressive!

Tue, 25 Dec 2001 18:41:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - With the relative flop Nintendo's last effort, the N64, turned into, I was awaiting the announcement of their next-generation system with some trepidation. I had been a Nintendo fan until the abysmally ill-planned N64, which lacked in third party...

The Berkeley Project has you, Ryo.

Sat, 8 Sep 2001 23:06:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - Shenmue. It has been reviewed by many publications and gamers as groundbreaking, as a must-have, even as Yu Suzuki's best game ever.

Is it all these things? Yes or no, depending on your point of view. At any rate, it's certainly an...

Get set to Jet!

Sat, 8 Sep 2001 22:25:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author colol - Most of us saw the quirky, badly-dubbed-on-purpose commercial spot for Jet Grind Radio. It was fun, as is the game itself!

Jet Grind Radio is a unique experience -- the graphics are a funky, cool mix of 3D and more cartoony graphics. The...

Handspring Visor Deluxe Handheld: Backflip out and buy one!

Sat, 8 Sep 2001 18:24:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - I had been pining for a PDA for ages, but finally went out a bought one this year for two reasons:

1. Starting college, I needed a workable planner -- and my paper planner just wasn't cutting it.

2. Fry's Electronics had refurb...

Spend a few more dollars.

Wed, 2 May 2001 22:03:45 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author colol - After moving from a borrowed "multimedia" monitor (the variety with speakers and mic integrated) to my own much nice 17 incher, I was forced to find a pair of speakers for my computer. That's when I found the Labtec LCS-150s -- small and reasonably...

Great Scanner, Crappy Bundle

Wed, 4 Apr 2001 20:58:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author colol - With the 8600 on sale at Costco for an incredibly reasonable price a few months ago, it quickly became the family scanner. And it certainly earned this duty well -- the scanner itself is built like a rock, easy to use, and offers a very impressive...

Tue, 11 Jul 2000 22:07:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author colol - Having been a VoiceStream customer for some time now, I feel I can

accurately share my experience with other people. VoiceStream is easily

Simply Perfect.

Fri, 2 Jun 2000 17:53:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author colol - To avoid spoiling any part of the movie, plot won't be touched at all in this review.

Now, on with the review -- Perfect Blue is a masterful piece of anime. Actually, I'm willing to say it's a masterful motion picture, because it's not just...
