On my second bottle. This is the best shaving cream I’ve used. You don’t need much & it does not form a thick lather. I actually like that because I can see what I’m doing. It still effectively forms a protective film & I have yet to nick myself despite sometimes using a dull blade. Have already repurchased & will do so again.
i just tried this for the first time and i just had to say that my skin has never felt or looked better after shaving than it does right now. i’m more than impressed. absolutely zero cuts/bumps or irritation.

good shaving gel, but…
this shaving gel is quite good, especially considering it’s only around $2. unfortunately, gillette tests on animals, so i’d rather buy EOS, flamingo, skintimate or billie.
