Cooling Formula Refreshing Mint

Since I went to using a shaving brush about 10 years ago I've tried numerous shaving soaps and creams, everything from locally handmade soap to national brands. In general I prefer creams to soaps, as I feel I get a better shave with fewer problems with a good shave cream. Proraso , C.O. Bigelow , Omega , Musgo Real , and Old Spice just to name a few. Yes, I know the first three are basically the same one under a different label. I was intrigued by the reviews for this Cremo Shaving Cream so I tried it. I'm glad I did! The consistency of this cream is similar to those I mentioned in the first paragraph. And as a clean fresh citrusy scent that doesn't linger, which is exactly what I want in the shave cream. After reading the Q&A about this cream here on Amazon I discovered it could be applied with a brush, in addition to the preferred method, rubbing it directly on your face with your hands. I put a small dollop of the cream in my shaving bowl and worked it into my badger brush with a small amount of water. Using this method, the brush applies a thin layer of shave cream. This is more than enough to provide a clean smooth shave. Not only does it provide a smooth shave, it doesn't clog the razor like the other brands can and rinses cleaner than any of the aforementioned brands. When combined with the Fusion ProGlide PowerRazor the result is a nearly perfect shave. No White Residue I have black ceramic shaving bowl. One gripe I have about all the previously mentioned shave creams, plus a few others I've tried, is that they all leave a white residue behind on the razor and on the bowl. If I go more than a couple of shaves without cleaning that residue off the bowl I find I need a Scotch-Brite pad to remove it. This shave cream leaves no residue. While this doesn't make or break the deal, it's one more advantage of this brand of shave cream. Almost Too Slick This cream is so slick that if you have any on your hands or if anything dribbles down the handle of the razor while shaving it will make the handle so slippery that you may have difficulty controlling it. Just make sure you wipe down the handle and your hands before you start to shave. The Bottom Line The tagline on the tube says "Astonishingly Superior." I don't know as I would go that far, but this is a really nice shave cream. I get a decent lather with my shaving brush, a smooth shave, and no white residue shaving bowl. This one's a keeper!

This Cremo shave cream is a solid product. It uses a low-lather formula that feels incredibly ultra-slick, letting the blade glide easily over the skin. I really appreciate how smooth it makes the shaving feel. My trick is to put just a few drops in my shaving vessel and lather it up with my brush. Doing it this way makes the tube last much longer because you use so little product. If you already use a brush and want a super slick cream that delivers a smooth shave, this is worth checking out.

Gives Art of Shaving a run for their money!! (For reference, I’m a woman, and I shave my entire body.) My bf introduced me to Art of $$$having, which was a huge upgrade from soap, all the grocery store “women’s” shave creams I’ve tried, or the Gillette foam in a can that my dad uses. But I found their preshave oil to be far too thick for me, and I couldn’t help but use way too much. I find their shaving cream to be excellent, however, so I used it for at least 2-3 years. But they are extremely expensive, so I continuously looked for an alternative. I found Cremo at T🎯, and I bought the women’s lavender. But I found it to be lacking a bit. I called Cremo and told them I was an avid AoS user, had tried their product and wanted to continue using it, but found that it was still insufficient on its own because I still needed to use mineral/baby oil first. Cremo said you don’t need preshave oil because it’s incorporated into their formula. So I went back to AoS because I was being petulant about that response. 🤔😂 I could’ve simply continued to apply mineral oil first since that’s what I was doing with AoS first anyway! After a while, I saw the sensitive formula of Cremo and tried it. I’ve never looked back!! Yes, AoS is great, but Cremo is actually better for me! I don’t know if their lavender scent and sensitive formulations have different “slickening” ingredients, but whatever it is, their sensitive formula works amazingly well for me!! A lot of men have posted reviews seeming to rave or complain about how many shaves they get from one tube of Cremo. But when you’re coming from years of paying AoS prices, that kind of talk is laughable. You don’t have to do any math to know Cremo is much more economical than AoS. That said, my bf still uses AoS, but he also makes 3x my income. If you used AoS and are looking for a more budget - friendly alternative, look no further .than this brand! While Cremo refuses to produce shaving oil, if you feel you still need that, I have found that mineral oil, aka baby oil, works very well for me. But I had also always found AoS shave oil to be too thick anyway. I will likely never go back to AoS products because I don't appreciate being asked to pay an exorbitant price for toiletries made by P&G. I do not see them as a luxury brand. I find that with mineral oil and Cremo shave cream in any scent, but especially in the sensitive skin version, my skin comes out cleanly shaven, comfortable, and I get no or very few nicks.

Superb close shave with no itching or discomfort. Easy to use. Finish Shaving in 3 mts flat.

Gives you a closer shave, less skin irritation, smooth after shave feeling, great product

A nice shaving cream with a refreshing mint and smell after shaving. Can shave close and the skin feels smooth even after shaving due to this cream.

This is the best scent ever that you will get as a shaver cream in theatke5. The scent is the same as the scent of the perfume Creed silver mountain.

Feels like top quality stuff but at the end of the day doesnt reduce any nicks and burns at all, infact its cold so after warming up your beard i dunno who this would help over soap which might be less cold. Also you have to apply a lot more than say a gel so this also will not last as long.
