Barbasol 1919 Classic Shaving Cream | Non-Aerosol Shave Cream for Men | Infused With Aloe, Coconut Oil, Shea Butter | Exceptional Glide | Made in the USA, 6 OZ (Pack of 1)

This is ultimately the best "non-foaming" shaving cream on the market, compared against canned stuff and other similar shaving creams. I'm not comparing it against shave soap because it's ultimately not in the same ballpark. This is a quick and easy solution, whereas shave soap requires preparation and some practice.Comparing this to Cremo is like comparing a Crown Vic to a Kia Soul. Cremo lacks the slickness this has, as well as the texture that allows it to spread easily. This is easily the slickest shaving product I have encountered, rivaling pre shave oils by a high degree. It doesn't require a lot of the product for application, but I tend to use more than is necessary. It absolutely requires water to be effective, which seems rather obvious, but the role of water is more vital than you'd think. I recommend applying a dolop to your palm, running your hand under the tap to saturate it, and then starting on the face to build up a lather. If it doesn't spread quite right, wet your palm and continue to lather.It doesn't build up to a foam, instead it leaves a white sheen that's incredibly slick. It seems to soften my coarser hair, which I do like. This whole process is about thirty seconds or so. The smell here is unmistakable as classic barbasol. It's very nice, and seems almost upscaled here. They make an aftershave in the same line that has the same scent from what I hear.I use a Rockwell 6s razor, usually using the 3 or 4 setting. I use Bic Chrome Platinum, Russian Astra Greens, and sometimes Feather blades. This product really helps the blades to slide across the surface of the skin, and catch hairs without issue.Overall, I truly think this is a fantastic shaving cream. You're far better off using this over canned shaving cream, as well as those jars of shaving cream you'll find out there. It's fast, and it does a great job, and on days I don't have the time to use shave soap I'm happy with the results here. It's much better than Cremo, in my opinion anyway, though Cremo does also have fantastic offerings other than their shaving cream.Pretty great!

Excellent Shave cream! If you want to use a non-Frilly smelly shave cream, this is ideal. Allows a smooth, clean shave without smelling like Perfume, like some other shave creams. I use an old school Safety Razor (Wilkinson Sword) and it shaves like a dream with it.Highly recommended.

I’ve tried 7 varieties in the last 2 years and this well outperformed all for slick lubrication, smells good and priced right

It’s okay , we’ll see how it works long term, it’s is smooth and soothing. I will keep using till it’s gone to see how well it works .

PRO- Made in the USA.- Tube is recyclable and product is cruelty-free. This should appeal to the environmental types.- I needed only 2 passes over my face to achieve the baby-butt smooth shave, as opposed to the usual 3 pass method. (With the grain, from the sides and then against the grain.) That surprised me.- I needed only a nickel-sized amount to cover my face for each pass. The directions didn't lie about that one.- ZERO irritation. And I mean ZERO. It's almost as if I didn't just drag a sharp razor blade across my face removing the whiskers and at least some of my outermost epidermal layer. This was actually quite impressive.- I didn't need to go over the 'trouble spots' on my neck like I normally do with all other shaving products I've used in life. Wow!- Pleasing scent that reminds me of Lemon or some other citrus fruit.- Would be a MUCH better product to take with you on long airplane flights or camping trips than an aerosol can. The pressure inside of an airplane isn't going to affect a plastic tube that you squeeze to extract the product.CON- Using a shaving brush didn't work well FOR ME. Best to use your fingers to work it into your skin.- Tends to gunk up my safety razor to a point where simply rinsing it under the faucet in the sink doesn't work 100%. I needed to take the razor apart and rinse off each individual piece, including the blade, when I was finished. That may not be such a good idea for guys with butterfingers to be handling a DE blade while they have wet hands. (Mine were dry while doing this, BTW.) This won't be an issue if you use a straight razor. I don't even want to know how guys still using Cartridge Razors would clean up after they're done. EDIT: (5 July 2021) A quick rinse doesn't clean off the razor, but holding it under the sink for a few moments usually does.- Costs considerably more than the foam in a can does. $6.99, to be exact. The foam cans cost me $1.47 for the 10 oz. variety at Wal-Mart and $1.00 for the 5oz. at Dollar Tree. However, the price for this cream is competitive with similar products from other manufacturers.- No 'audio feedback' when shaving the whiskers off of my face. Not hearing them get shaved off was a little strange. I got used to the ASMR-like sound the razor made when cleaving/removing the whiskers with the foam. That's how I knew I was getting results after that initial pass removed most of them that were clearly visible in the mirror. Not sure if this is really bad, but it does require some adjustment on my part.FINAL JUDGMENTBarbasol has a real winner here. I think I'll use this for those trouble spots on my neck while using the foam for everything else, including the (almost) everyday shaves. I do feel like I can confidently recommend this product to other men.

Very smooth

Shaving Cream like this one is excellent, far better than foam. If you have not tried it in lieu of other products, you really should, and it will very likely switch you over.

Exceptional Glide. I'm a repeat buyer.

Barbasol have really hit it out of the park with this new formulation of their brushless cream. I had used the previous tube version before on and off since the 90s, and this new reformulation is significantly better. The cream is brushless, so it is supposed to be applied by hand and will not make a big lather like a canned shaving cream, but it provides an exceptionally slick and rich cream that has eliminated any irritation for me during shaving. Just use a hot towel as prep and then apply the cream.At the moment you can't buy this in the stores in Canada, unfortunately. Hopefully that will change, but until then Amazon is a good place to source this.

Foams just enough with the use of water and rubbing. Makes my skin silky smooth and has a nice neutral scent to it. Its better than my Vichy Gel.
