Can You Feel The Burn?
Review of Gillette Arctic Ice Aftershave Gel by Calldean

Advantages: Hmmmmm.... none
Disadvantages: Stings, smells funny

...job. This being a Gillette product I had high hopes for it. Most other products from this company are very good, work well and are reasonably priced (I can’t comment on the price of this stuff though as it was a present). It comes in a 100ml, grey, plastic bottle with a funny “reverse flip” kind of top. You press at the back of it and the front flips up a bit (If you see what I mean)?! It can be quite hard to squeeze some of the product out and ...
...The smell is very strong. Gillette call it Arctic Ice, but it just smells very chemically to me. Not pleasant at all and leaves me wondering if I should be putting it on my face. Especially as it’s still red-raw from shaving. The texture is at first quite firm, until you rub it into your fingers a little when it turns more like a gel/oily liquid. Again, I find it’s not very nice. Right; slap a bit on and what happens? It hurts. It stings and it ... Read review

Cool Enough
Review of Gillette Cool Wave Aftershave by hasbok

Advantages: Cheap and has a nice scent
Disadvantages: Doesn't usually last for longer than a couple of hours

I first bought this after shave because of the price, usually just over £5, and for that amount of money it is a very good product. I wasn't too disappointed when i got home and applied it, as the scent is nice enough for an informal occasion, i.e. just wearing out on a normal day, and it feels very soft when applied to the skin. As far as I have experienced, it doesn't irritate the skin at all, and leaves it feeling soft and non-greasy. However, ...
...time. I usually find myself having to reapply halfway through the day (if needs be) because all the smell has gone. This can be expected though for the amount of money being paid for the product. The product comes in glass bottle which is conveniently sized for carrying around in a bag or even a pocket. When originally applied, the scent is strong and fills the nostrils with a delectable odour which is very satisfying and not too overpowering. When ... Read review

Wild Rain, more like Wild Fire on your face
Review of Gillette Wild Rain Aftershave by BlackBall

Advantages: nice smell if not overpowering at times
Disadvantages: expensive, same as above

...he told me it was Gillette Wild Rain. It was really nice, and it wasn't weak either. I'm not sure if he used alot but jeez! It did manage to fill the room. Price - I saw it on the store shelf at £4.50. Regardless of price i got it. Packaging - The bottle is quite thin. Something i haven't really seen before. It is frosted glass with a green and white label. Using the aftershave - When trying to pour it out, too much would come out at once so that ...
...at the top to allow the aftershave to come out a bit less but i never saw that. Funnily, it seemed to evapourate right away......this worried me as i wasn't sure if i wasted my money. Testing it for the first time - This was the moment of truth, was i going to have a pain free experience or was this another bottle of sulphuric acid on the skin? It stinged like crazy...... Again i had the bother of burning sensation which lasted for a few minutes, ... Read review

Good only for the first time
Review of Gillette Wild Rain Aftershave Gel by karakula

Advantages: Good bottle design
Disadvantages: small time of operation

One year ago, on my birthday my friends presented me with this Wild rain after shave gel. I tried it to use 5-6 times and now it is located in the farest corner of my house.

When I pressed the lid , green substancies was spraid in direction of my eyes - 5-6 inch more and it would achieved my eyes. Then I put this green substance on my face - ...
...cream (of green color) on my fase. Then my wife questioned me why I used some cheep perfume (about smell). Then , after 20 minutes , I stopped to fill this gel on my face. Surely , during those 20 min I was filling some cool and fresh by my face, but why only 20 minutes? ... Read review
