Edge active care moisturizing cream

Item Description

This is a nice shave cream;it comes in 3 versions : hydrating (the one reviewed), revitalizing (pepperminted) and deep cleansing.
The first time I used it, it was kind of unusual, because it's not as thick as a lathering formula, but it lubricates and proctects really well; this product has lots of emollients and moisturizers (which is important because I have dry skin and a tough beard).
The result : smooth shave, no irritation.
Scent is not luxurious, but I like it ; it's a marine scent (well, kind of).
The cream can clog a multiblade razor if too much is applied, but it rinses off easily.

Latherability, I put N/A because it is a NON LATHERING Formula.

This and a couple of others in its line have been discontinued. I bought the Deep Cleansing formula, and was using it whenever I would travel. This is truly a remarkable product. I found out that it has been discontinued because not enough people were buying it.

I think people pick up shave creams expecting each one to make lather like a foaming mouth of a sick dog. Well, not EVERY shave cream is made to create a lather. This one certainly isn't. I also think most guys don't bother to read the BACK of the tube where it clearly states that it is a non-lathering formula.

Why enough people weren't buying this product beats me, but I can guess that most people don't know how to shave, and weren't doing it right with this cream.

This cream is pretty much one of the best failed mass market products I have ever used. I believe they got the formula right, but just not right for the 'mass market'. They should continue to create this product and sell it on order basis directly so customers like us who are peeved about its discontinuation from WalMart can still get our hands on it.

Again, a great shave cream. They should have put "Non Lathering Formula" right on the front of it for most doofus mass market guys who do not bother to check the various instructions all over the tube.
Don't be fooled, it provides more protection than some full lather creams.
I wish I had gotten the other flavors of it as well.

I have been using this for a while. Have enjoyed it with every shave. Does clog razors easily. The smell is not the best but ya get use to it. Works well in a steamy shower. Will keep in my arsenal.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS STUFF!!!:biggrin:

I have used this shave cream with a Gillette Fusion and a Feather DE "Popular" w/Feather DE blade; no matter which razor I use this cream worked like a dream...and I even tried it with a Gillette Mach3 DISPOSABLE:eek: and it still worked like a dream.

The moisturizing and lubricating properties are wonderful.:w00t:

The price is just right, obtainable by everyone and I think it works better than some high-end brands...even better than the Trumper's Sandalwood I used a while back.:blushing: I realize I might get some flack from some of you out there, but I really do like this stuff if you can't tell by now.:001_rolle

After the shave, you don't need any aftershave or moisturizer, this stuff does it for you; or at least it left my skin soft, supple and moisturized.

I do have to admit, the scent could be a little better...it's masculine, but I like stronger scents in my products...imho:blush:

If you haven't tried this stuff yet, go out and pick up a 5.5 ounce tube at your local market or drugstore and enjoy!:wink:
