hello fellow chrome domes: for the past 7-10 days... i have been using GILLETTE's new thermal scrub. U can purchase it from TARGET for about $6.99 for a 3.3 oz tube.
i am shower shaver so i get some hot water splashed on the dome/face and apply two pea-sized amount of the thermal scrub in my hand and rub it on dome and face. applying the thermal scrub, i immediately enjoyed the "warming" sensation it gave my dome/face. next, i rinse it off with some hot/warm water & begin my shave routine.
if U like facial scrubs... such as ST IVE's apricot scrub or similar, then U will luv this thermal scrub. i luv the "warming" sensation that it brings 2 the dome/face. however... the most important was that it helped bring my shaving routine 2 an improved level. since, i have been using Gillette's thermal scrub, i have been experiencing some super, slick shaves.
all in all... i would definitely recommend this product. 4 me the "warming" sensation that it gave my dome/face was a keeper. :@` so... if U like facial scrubs then U gotta place this on your shopping list. so... if U have tried this product out, let me hear your story?

I agree with Warhawk I have been using this scrub and it is awesome! O0

This would be great followed by a menthol shaving cream :o

Ok Warhawk,
I tried the Thermal scrub and you are absolutely right it is awesome. I love the warm feeling and my head had less growth. When I awoke this morning and rubbed my dome it was still quite smooth. Thanks for the tip. :@`

Tried the Thermal Scrub in the shower for the first time yesterday. The stuff is magnificent! Really gets kinda hot when you first put it on.....not unpleasant but really warm. I left it on while I washed up, then rinsed off, applied some shave gel and scraped away. I can feel a little stubble this morning (just got home from work) but it really doesn't seem as much like velcro as usual.
@ Warhawk: Good call!

Just tried it--didn't feel the warmth as much as I expected bt the shave aterwards was great! Let's see how it holds up...
-
A "free" sample came w/ my ProGlide Razors (manual). It seems to work well....I end up w/ one of the smoothest slickest shaves I've had in a long time...I'll try it for a week or so before I make a final decision on it though...
-
Got some, seems to provide some improvement. I'm going to continue using it this week, then try a week without to see if the sensation of a better job is real.The warmth is minimal, but pleasant.
