Item Description
With a slogan like, "Real Shaving: always a pleasure, never a chore", how could I not be interested in this stuff?
I found it on sale for $7.00 (Canadian) but according to the R.S. Co. website, the stuff retails for £3.99, so to go with a great slogan, the price was right.
This cream has an interesting and pleasant scent (nothing to write home about, but nice none the less) and can easily be whipped into a beautiful lather (see photos below). The packaging is a little ho hum (a plastic tube like KMF or The Body Shop - only less attractive), but that really isn't that important (to me, that is).
My complaint about this shave cream is that the lather is very "light" and I didn't find it to be overly lubricating or moisturizing. I don't expect that the RS Co will make it into frequent rotation in my bathroom, but you never know; this may be something that somebody else would think is the best thing since sliced bread.
A little cream in my bowl...
After about 10 or so swirls...
A little more water and some more swirling...
Meringue like? Well, it looks pretty good to me...
Have another look...
Painting my hand (about 5 strokes)...
