Gentlemans Face Care Club Peppermint Shaving Cream

The Peppermint shave cream is excellent. I previously bought the Caribbean Lime cream which has a lovely, subtle scent but, most importantly, provides a smooth, irritation free shave. The Peppermint is equally excellent: the scent is just enough to be noticeable but not enough to be overpowering. The cream works up wonderfully to provide a creamy, thick lather which provides more than ample coverage for a solid 3 pass shave. As with the Lime, it provides for a smooth, clean shave with no irritation. My only complaint (if you can call it that): some might see the low price and think this is a cheap, low quality product, the truth being that the creams are stupendous value for money. I will be a regular repeat customer from now on.

Pleased I found it and enjoy using it. Not sure on longevity, but am pleased with it. At 150 g it is the same weight ae traditional shaving jars. Let us see how long it lasts, Overall a good modern product.

I used the GFCC cream today I acquired from Amazon, ordered Saturday and delivered Sunday afternoon. Brilliant service. I have been in correspondence with the team at GFCC and they have been very helpful and so far the customer service is top notch, nothing is too much trouble it seems. If you have any queries send Jenny an email Jenny Wright <[email protected]> I originally did not like peppermint as a scent, however, using the Barts Balm products it has started to grow on me, i actually really like the face feel the mint gives. Therefore, this new cream was ordered. 150ml for under £6, and British made. I decided on a bowl lather using a small almond sized bit of cream, working it in with the soft Omega, using only the tips of this soft brush & water drops as it started to "rise", in no time at all i had a really thick slick lather, to be honest i could have kept going to reduce the thickness of it with a bit more water, however, i decided to use what i had. It went on the chin easily and gave a good covering, it also has staying power and did not change its consistency throughout the shave. The scent is quite good and not synthetic and overpowering, it feels nice on the face and is slick and creamy. The performance during the shave was very good and i had more than enough for my 3 pass shave. WTG, XTG & ATG i was using a Vintage Ever Ready Heavy Flat Top Single Edge Razor and you need a good cushion, i had it with the GFFC Cream. I love these vintage razors and the cream did help the shave. So BBS Skin feel and very comfortable, would i recommend the cream? Yes although YMMV.

I’m a recent convert to double edged razor shaving and am so surprised by it. Such a revelation with shaving being enjoyable! A key part is the shaving cream. I recently discovered this one. Lovely texture and a gentle minty scent, not eye watering like some strong ones. A little is all you need for a shave 9or even a 2-pass shave if you use a brush). The packaging is compact and recyclable so good value and eco friendly. Highly recommended. Looking forward to trying out more of the Gentlemen’s Face Care Club range

Update: I continue to be impressed with the performance of this cream. I keep thinking I've created a decent bowl lather but when applied it explodes into a thick, creamy lather, yet still has glide. Very responsive customer service too. I'd give 4.5 stars if I could (got to leave room for improvement!) For me, this cream sits at the top table. initial impressions. I purchased GFCC Peppermint as a potential alternative to some of the other minty/menthol creams out there. I decided to test its 'cooling freshness' on the hottest day of the year! Very first impressions were a little underwhelming. The tub looks slightly small in comparison to other 150g/ml offerings and on opening it seemed as though a chunk was gone. Maybe it's just how it settled (I can't verify the quantity), but it doesn't give the best impression. Fortunately, things got better from there. The scent is definitely peppermint-y rather than menthol. It's noticeable but fairly light. Personally, I don't think this is a bad thing, I don't always want to be hit in the face with 'minty fresh'. On to the shave. Lots to like here. Using a small amount of product (about a pea-sized snurdle), even with hard water I generated more than enough thick, creamy lather. What really stood out for me though was the slickness. I was impressed with the glide of the razor. This is better than I have achieved with other well-regarded creams, e.g. TOBS. Probably due to this I was also left with a great post-shave feel. I didn't get much if anything in the way of a cooling effect though. Performance-wise it's looking very good indeed. The only let-down really has been wondering whether the tub has been properly filled. The scent is obviously subjective but I can't see it being objectionable to anyone. Personally, the performance is more important (the glide!), though I would like to try other scents, as I suspect I would reach for them more often given the choice and equivalent performance. All said, well worth trying.

The cream is very easy to use and gives a great, slick and creamy lather with only the smallest amount on your brush. The scent is really good too, it's strong but not overpowering and lasts quite a long time. This cream is definitely worth trying.

Like most guys I don’t particularly enjoy shaving & have tried most shaving products from gels to foams or oils with differing success. I can’t even recall how I found your product but it is by far the best I’ve used - it creates a fantastic lather that softens bristles extremely quickly & makes shaving far easier, far closer & much less of a chore. I’ve used the peppermint & the bergamot & both are superb - I’ve recommended to family members & will definitely continue using.

Great shave cream, best I have used, easy to apply, foams well either by hand or with a brush, the scent of peppermint is just right, leaves skin feeling clean and smooth after the shave.
