Title: WHAT's the latest shaving product that...
Post by: warhawk on March 26, 2012, 01:55:18 PM
hello fellow chrome domes:  what's the latest shaving product that U purchased?  i'll start:  i bought some shaving cream (a few weeks ago) from "bath and body works" called:  c.o. bigelow premium shave cream.  it comes in a green 1.7 oz tube for $5 but got a deal if U buy 2 get one for free (which equaled to $3.33 a tube). 

it is an excellent product & it gives a super, smooooooth head shave.  so... how 'bout U?  what's the latest shaving product that U purchased?  shaving cream/gel?  razor?  lotion?  witch hazel?  cartridge? brush?  what's your story?

I'm using Cremo Creme at the time.  Great shave!

I need to list two I purchased within the last two weeks:

1. An Alum Block. Works ok but I prefer my natural witch hazel a thousand times

2. Shave cream from a company in Spain: La Toja.  Great products, have used them in the past too. They should be available in the US. Here's a link with a nice story to it, but if you google it you'll get more infos
Apart from the shown stick they have a creme in a tube, nice stuff.

Yesterday I picked up a disk of Williams mug shaving soap. Found it on clearance sale, .49 cents at my local supermarket. Well, all I have to say is, this is really the way to go. It's amazing, I get a superb lather, and I used it without a brush. I can only imagine how much better that would be. Leaves the scalp feeling super smooth and soft. My last two shaves were very enjoyable.
Now I know what the guys who use shaving soap were talking about.
I highly recommend it to all of you.  O0

I was just in the states on the weekend and picked up:

1. Several bottles of Shave Secret at Wal-Mart. Love the stuff and cheaper to buy there than to have shipped
2. Bigelow shave cream at Bath & Body works. I can buy it here in Canada, but they had a smaller size in the US that I can't get here, so that will be great for travel.  Not sure if they had the deal you got as my wife was the one who was in bbw and picked it up for me.

(Although these products are both to shave my face - I use HB for my headshaves. I should probably try these out, but I get such a smooth shave with HB that there isn't really a point)

Just bought yesterday the Post-Shave Balm from L'Oreal (24HR Hydrating brand). They say it hydrates and soothes the skin and it's non greasy.
Of course I tested it right away (a shaved dome is always required) and it works a lot better for me than the previous after-shave balm I was using.

It is yes,  but there's next to no good shaving products in Japan (excluding aftershaves and Feather products!) so I have to order everything from overseas anyway.  Slowest delivery I've ever had was two weeks.  Not unbearably slow!

Two weeks sounds pretty decent, especially when the stake is a good quality shave.

Just received a few days ago from Ebay... SuperMax Platinum blades.  I made a mistake on this purchase because I thought I was purchasing the SuperMax Super Platinum blades.  However.... I am pleased with these blades.  It gave me a great shave.

Everything arrived safely.
India-Japan one week.
Portugal-Japan 9 days.

I'm very happy with the products so far. Not tried the brush yet though.
