I've always found L'Oreal's Menexpert Pure and Matte to be quite good... for my repressed metrosexual needs anyway!

I don't know about it as far any of this boxing stuff, it sounds a bit rough!

Arnica is great stuff, used the cream on black eyes or if I've had a rough night, I used to take it in capsules when I broke my calivcle, but I was 10 years old, so I wouldn't really know if it did anything for that.
