Right, here is a review, made up of my own opinions on shaving, using a shaving stick.  Before you all groan, and start thinking this review is thirty years out of date, just bear with me. To start with, a solid stick of shaving soap, is a very good way of producing a lather. The stick is small, compact enough for a toilet bag, easy to use, produces better lather than foams, and is far gre...

I guess all women have experienced this: you shave your bikini line, and on the next day the skin breaks out with irritation - the embarrassing red bumps that won't go away for days. I had had this happen, too, so I was very happy when I saw this gel on the shelf - Bikini Zone Anti-Bumps Shave Gel. The 4. fl.oz. plastic tube was under $4, and its promises sounded wonderful: formulated to pr...

I bought this product, Midsummer Man After Shave Cream by Oriflame for my hubby. It comes in a tube of 50 ml or 1.66 oz. One thing I like about the Midsummer Man’s product range is that the fragrance is mild. My hubby usually shaves his beard every two days or so. When I bought this after shave cream for him, he seemed excited. He never used this kind of cream before. In my own opinion, t...

I have been using Gillette Shaving Creams for years.  I really like this formula.  It is extra foamy and makes a great lather.  I like a thick layer of shaving cream when I shave.  It allows me to get a super close shave.  The conditioners in the shaving cream are great for my sensitive skin.  It is easy to wash off when I am finished shaving and it leaves my face ...

I was looking for something that moisturized my skin while I shaved. While looking for soap, I noticed Colonel Ichabod's brand soap. It caught my eye on a website because of the way it's marketed; kinda old fashioned looking and interesting. I use it for my legs, when it's intended for the face. Either way, it works great! I shave when I shower and this is awfully convenient because...

Sometimes it's hard for a woman to find the right kind of gel to help her shave her legs. After going through several shower gels, and even experiementing with conditioner when I was low on shower gel, this Avon product is a wonderful and cost effective way to help you shave your legs in the shower. The gel is easy to apply and is a bright blue so that the the gel doesn't seem to "...

 Shaving is a chore. It really is. And after you shave, you have to wash up, and then put on some lotion to get rid of the razor burn, and then maybe put some more on since it still burns. Not so with the Neutrogena Post Shave lotion (maybe they wanted to avoid the title 'After Shave lotion'?). Here's why. The lotion itself doesn't look very dramatic, as its simple, wh...

I tried out Edge after some razor burns and irritation occur. Edge Advanced shave gel is a gel that foams immediately as you gently rub against your face. I like the refreshing and icy effect from the gel after shaving. It just wakes up my face and gives me a fresh start for the day. It is easily wash off with some warm water. It also generate a subtle tingling feeling as I shave. However, I fi...

Proraso shaving cream might not be a readily-known name in America like Barbasol or the like, but in Italy, Proraso is the old-fashioned shaving cream of choice.  While it can be difficult to find in American stores, it is still cheap and can easily be bought online.  It comes in a crinkle-tube that contains a lot of the product, so you don’t have to worry about running out fo...

As you can tell with my long list of Aveda reviews, I have tried or use many different Aveda products.  Most of them are just fine to use as a man without worrying about an overpowering floral scent.  This one is an exception.  The rosemary and peppermint is a little too girlie to use as a facial shaving creme.  I think it would be great for a female using it for shaving.My ...

I have very course hair and I shave my leg daily in the shower.  Hair removal products never seem to work very well for me so I just resort to old-fashioned shaving.  I have used many products to assist with shaving from plain soap to fancy, salon products.  The one I seem to like the best is the drugstore product:  Skintimate Shave Gel.  I like that the product is very...

My husband use the Gillette Regular Shaving foam and he looks quite happy with the product. I wanted to gift some thing to my brother which is not expensive but should be useful for him so I bought him Gillette Regular Shaving foam . My brother liked the Gillette Regular Shaving foam and now he himself buying the same brand. He says its very easy to press the form and the best thing is its not ...

Oh my goodness.  I bought a little travel size of this, and once I used it up over a vacation, I just had to run out to purchase some more!  This gel goes on silky smooth, and lathers up perfectly.  But my absolute FAVORITE thing about this shaving gel is its scent.I was blown away by the gorgeous smell of apricot the first time I used this.  Now, I'm not a particularly ...

I'm always looking for a shave gel that has a great scent to it. I found the Gillette Satin Care Shave Gel's Radiant Apricot scent and desided to try it. Everything was perfect about this shave gel except for the scent. The lather was perfect and it did get the job intended done but the scent could be a little stronger. You can hardly smell the apricots at all. Most of the time I do not...

American Crew herbal shaving cream is my favorite brand for my slightly sensitive skin.  I have found better products but they stopped making them. It is not the cheapest brand by far but I figure with dry skin my face is worth it. It provides good lubrication, a pleasant smell and help keepmy skin from drying out like some of the cheaper brands. When shaving with this product the number o...

 Marykay Moisturizing Shave Cream is  a very good product. I like the fragrance but the best experience with this product was the moisture. It is so much easier to shave with. You feel the skin become softer to the touch, the razor just glides over your skin. I think it is a much more pleasant shaving experience. It is suitable for sensitive skin and has been tested for alergies. It h...

I like Kiss My Face products because they use natural ingredients. That's good for me and good for the planet. I have sensitive skin and I cannot use just any product without breaking out and itching. Kiss My Face products tend to work really well for me. I like the shaving gel from Kiss My Face because they offer lots of great fragrances. My favorite is vanilla. Also it comes in a pump for...

I have tried quite a few different shaving creams and gels over the years, and have stuck with Gillette's Gel for a while now.  I prefer their gel because it seems to go on a little thicker than the shaving cream, which I prefer.  It seems to give a more comfortable shave.  Another think I really like about this gel is the different types you can get, such as moisturizing, se...

This is Noxzema Medicated Shave Cream for Sensitive Skin. Well, this is your basic shaving cream. Nothing too fancy or "smelly", just good basic stuff. I like it because of the price, of course. Just about $3.00 for a can that lasts me a long time - sometimes up to a month or more. It is medicated for sensitve skin. If you are prone to getting irritated after shaving, I can recommend ...

I've been using this product for as long as I've been shaving my legs. I normally saw it in most pharmacies in Raspberry Rain and another formula for sensitive skin in a green bottle. (I think it was Aloe and Vitamin E.)I have used both types after shaving until the bottles ran out. The result was a pleasant, cooling sensation that did an amazing job at preventing any razorburn and calm...
