Kinda makes sense. I work with a lot of things that really dry out your hands throughout the day, so our office has to buy a lot of lotion. We have to buy an expensive silicon based one because the others just leave oily residue on all the tools making everything slippery.

What's the brand of lotion you use?
Sorry had to look it up, couldn't remember the supplier we buy it from.
It's from a medical supply company called Medline, we get the Phytoplex Hydraguard Silicone Cream.
Think they only run like 5-7 bucks each , but they are tiny and we go through them like crazy.
Men also do something else with their grip, and I've heard quite a few use lotion when doing it.
QED checkmate.
Hit the bottom, as we did back in the day with Snapple bottles and it makes the popping sound. Hit the bottom, make the pop, top more easily removed. Lotion unrelated!
Nah
I just have gecko fingers.
Really, I don't know why dudes don't like putting lotion on after a shower, feels great.
Anyone who's inspired, go ahead and get some neutral smelling lotion, then after you take a shower, rub that all over your body. You can do the face too if you don't have face specific lotion.
After I added this to my routine, my skin has felt and looked great.
Cause it's all slimy. Ew
I don’t even like having to dry off after a shower. It’s easier to put on boxers and air dry mostly after first patting yourself down. It seems to be a difference in ritual as much as grooming. Dudes don’t worry about their skin getting dry or hair splitting because the harshness of their lives or clothing keeps they’re dry skin exfoliated enough and they trim their hair before ends become a problem so they don’t have high maintenance hairstyles.
We don’t have to do as much preventative maintenance because we don’t worry about doing things daily
Yeah it feels so nice
Calluses play a role as well I imagine.
