Decelerine™ is a mixture of active ingredients offering a complete post-shaving treatment. It targets its action in hair follicle cells and weakens new hair formation. Decelerine™ has been proven to inhibit hair growth and decrease the length and density of unwanted hair, thus reducing the frequency of shaving and depilation. It also provides a soothing, moisturizing and anti-inflammatory effect on the skin. Decelerine™ may be used in any formulation for post-depilatory treatments such as emulsions, body milks or after shave lotions. Recommended concentration: 3%.

I'd quite like Henk's input on that lot - the ones that are probably of interest are the ones in red.... frankly none of it's going near my face though :shock: I'm making the rash assumption that something there is acting as an oestrogen-mimic to depress the hairiness... there's enough of those in the environment already without buying them on purpose...
