I do..a wetted and shook out brush on a wet face makes a difference.
YES!!! Exactly like that. Barbasol lime and Colgate lime are discontinued sadly. You can find them on the bay now and then but the prices are wayyyy out there. I guess not enough people buy lime canned goo.AHH, I gotcha, I see what you mean now..

Had to go look for my curiosity. Yeah a couple listings on there for $10-15 per can...woof.
Thanks for the heads up. I have not used Barbosal since I started wet shaving, but maybe I will look for an anniversary can at the supermarket. Plus I have noticed and appreciated their short paid advertising spot on Monday Night Football broadcast by Westwood One (radio not TV). As a further aside I enjoy listening to Kevin Harlan play-by-play & Kurt Warner analysis more that the Sunday TV guys. I searched for a clip of Kevin Harlan saying "Barbosal ...." to post here but I could not find anything.
Recent Barbasol creams discontinued:
Skin Conditioning (Yellow)
Mountain Blast (Purple) - maybe just been renamed as Extra Moisturizing? (also Purple)
Arctic Chill (Light blue) - w/ Menthol
Pacific Rush (Turquoise) - original version without Menthol
What remains:
Original (Red)
Soothing Aloe (Green)
Sensitive (Orange)
Pacific Rush w/ Menthol and Caffeine (Turquoise)
Extra Moisturizing w/ Vitamin E (Purple)

found this at my local shop rite for 18 bucks. You get the aniversary can, 1 travel size can, 1 razor w/2 blades, Barbasol retro playing cards and a nice size tin. I was looking for a storage box for some of my razors,so this fit the bill, comes with some nice foam inserts for protection and has enough room for 2 levels of razor storage. Overall it's a little pricey for what you're getting, but I like the tin and it's a cool storage box for the shave nook.
You get all the chicks when you use Barbasol®.
I saw those cans in the grocery store the other day and thought they were really cool. One thing you can say about Barbasol, they have a really good marketing department.
Found the can at my local drugstore today. As someone earlier posted, it has a much stronger scent then the regular can. It seems to be a bit thicker as well.
Thanks for the review. I'll be spending some money.
Definitely adds a nostalgia aspect to the shave den! Don't use it that much, but add a little bit of water & it is plenty slick.
Saw it, thought it was cool, but passed because I've come to prefer Gillette Foamy again. Since it has a different scent, will probably give it a try.
I grabbed 3 of 'em!
That ad would make Sir Mix-a-Lot blush! Love Barbasol - will definitely grab a 'can' next time I see one... Thanks!
Meijer store has the anniversary edition
Yep! Walmart does as well..hasn't hit Kroger yet.
I'm on a shaving like dad did kick so i had to try barbasol picked up both current and anniversary one on each side of face i really liked the anniversary foam seems thicker milder scent 1956 Gillette super speed flair tip new Astra great shave with both foams but missing my Proaso red . . . enjoy
