Joel, I completely agree. I have been using the Men-U "kit" including all of those items, as my detachment shave kit for quite some time now (I bought mine back when Don over at wetshavers first got the discount going-which was, I guess, quite awhile ago) The only thing I did differently, is back then you could not get the kit with the synthetic brush...so I bought it seperately. I've been using this kit for quite a long time. It takes very little space, and when I go on a trip, be it vacation or duty, this kit is always with me. Yes, I sometimes bring other stuff too....but it is always with me.joel said:John,
To get a little past the "men-u" cream and actually bring up the whole Men-U line.... the shaving cream, shaving brush, after shaving facial wash, and after shaving balm/moisture cream are all OUTSTANDING products. Truly... I think Men-U is some of the best stuff out there. If I had to pick ONE shaving cream in terms of the MOST lubricic/efficacious, it would be the men-u hands down. It also doesn't hurt that the pump top dispenser allows consistent results, as 1.5 pumps seems to work perfect for brushes large and small... and 125 shaves outta one small pump bottle of shaving cream? Good lordy!
Absolutely great stuff and lasts a long time.
