Shaving Gel & Foams

Advantages: includes a little tube of soothing cream, needed for the BURNS
Disadvantages: doesnt take ANY hairs off, leaves skin red and sore.

I have used a few of these sorts of creams before and never got perfect results but most at least took a few hairs off, but this cream did nothing of the sort. I was careful to make sure i got the timing EXACTLY right, and when i wiped the cream off that was the only thing that came off, it didnt take ANY HAIRS OFF MY SKIN AT ALL, i looked carefully at the cream to see but theres wasnt one that i could see it took off. Ive never been a real fan of ...
...have reddish skin on the areas i used it on. ONLY pro to this is that you get a finishing cream of cocoa butter and vitamin E, which slightly soothes the area, but you can get a pot of cocoa butter anywhwere. apart from that being included, this product is useless. ... Read review

Advantages: good smell, actually works!
Disadvantages: -

...I first heard about the Veet Rasera Bladeless Kit when a kind worker in Boots handed me an advertising leaflet for it. It made me think..I could be hair free without a blade or pain? It's a miracle! I went straight to the hair removal section and picked up a can, I bought the lotus milk & jasmine for normal skin (the one in the pink can). 150ml for £6.95, I thought that was quite reasonable. Most of these "new and improved" - which I don't understand, ...
...time? - hair removal creams usually either don't work or smell like toilet cleaning chemicals, after first opening this, I realised that it didn't have the same smell of a newly cleaned toilet, but that of jasmine, nice :). I squirted some of the thick, white cream into my hand and started liberally applying it to my legs, the smeel was strong, but it was nice. After washing my hands straight away (like the can says to), I put on some music, what ... Read review

Advantages: Clear. Doesn't dry out my skin. Long lasting.
Disadvantages: Flip lid fills with water. Difficult to see if you've applied it.

Having got fed up of the normal foaming shaving gels drying out my legs I thought I'd try this. It cost somewhere between £3 and £4 (I can't remember exactly). And whilst that seems expensive it has lasted me a long time. The packaging can be seen in the picture, but two things I feel are of particular note are that you can see how much product you have left which I always find handy. The second thing is that if you leave it standing in your shower ...
...water, which is not so good. The product itself is easy to apply but it took a while to work out how much to use as it doesn't really foam so it's hard to see if you've put enough on. However after some experimentation I discovered that you don't really need much at all. As it doesn't foam, it's really easy to see where you're shaving and I found this helped as I used to cut the area around my knees when I used foaming gels but I haven't had that ... Read review

Advantages: Very easy to use. Leaves the skin comfortable.
Disadvantages: The berry smell may not a favourite with everyone.

What is it? *********** A foaming gel specifically designed for women who shave. This particular review will focus on the Wild berry version. What does it do? ****************** It claims to contain some form of silk - the ingredients state 'silk amino acids'. Using this gel should help make the shaving process easier and smoother and leave your skin feeling soft and silky after shaving. How do I use it? ****************** The gel may be ...
...Release some gel from the bottle pump. Then massage into skin, this will work up a considerable amount of foam/lather and ensure even coverage over shaving area. Usually I only use a small pea size's worth on a small area - as this does lather up quite well, so a little goes a long way in terms of coverage. Using a clean razor, shave as normal using the foam as a marker of the areas that need to be shaved. Does it work? *************** The average ... Read review

Advantages: Smell, smoothness.
Disadvantages: None at all.

...I do like the Original Source range, the shower gels and the shampoo's so when I saw a shaving gel, I thought I would give it a try. Packaging: Green, recyclable can, very green in fact, with the familiar (to me) Original Source font and the heading 'refreshing and cleansing'. Nothing else exceptional or different about the can or squirty nozzle; directions for use and ingredients on the back. They make a point of listing that fragrances and oils ...
...to about 10 times the original amount and becomes almost white (how do they do that?). It feels very smooth and soothing on the skin, almost cooling. The razor slides through the gel very easily, it is, just bloomin' perfect. Afterwards: Firstly, not a nick, not a scratch and my face actually tingled, in a really nice way. I have not used a different razor, yet my face is smoother than it has been in a long time. I bought this on Friday (today ... Read review
