This is what I use and it's worked well for me. AVEENO® POSITIVELY SMOOTH® SHAVE GEL with a few drops of Shave Secret shave oil. Fusion glides very smoothly with no irritation. After shaving and rinsing with cold water, I put on AVEENO® MEN'S™ AFTER SHAVE LOTION. Cools the head and gives it a nice shine.
So to answer your question, yes I would recommend a gel over foam.
It used to take me about 15 minutes in the beginning too. But now I can get it done in about 5 minutes in the shower all by feel. With experience, you'll get your technique down and you'll reduce your shave time. -

Thanks for that buddy, I think my routine sounds pretty similar just the products available here are branded differently.
I have just got some oil so I will try it with that tomorrow. As in at work now...
Wash head in the shower, oil, shave gel, WTG, ATG, rinse with hot and then cold water & then a post shave balm
How does that sound? -

Hi Toby: Welcome to the sly fraternity. You look like a natural. I cannot imagine you with hair.

Cheers guys!
I keep thinking about trimmers instead of shaving but the finish a razor gives me is too good... I just worry about razor burn & nicks -
