Lord shaving cream from Egypt, slight cooling effect. Nivea Men shaving cream is very good to use, modestly priced, isn’t available in the United States.

Agreed. I tried Nivea sensitive calm liquid cream in a pump bottle, which I think is relatively new, and got a close, comfortable shave with my DE safety razors.
Not fancy, but it gets the job done and is relatively inexpensive, which is a bonus for those of us on a budget.

Gifted to me by a friend in the UK, he had gotten this from one of the local discount department stores for 3 pounds. Stunningly good. Someone up a few posts mention Real Shave Company shave cream. This is better than that.
Here are some mighty fine creams:
Delmy (India)
Bombay Shaving Company (India)
Gada Cool Mint (Lebanon)
Barbon Hungary)
Bielita (Belarus)

WARS has been a standby since I started wetshaving!
I've also had great experiences with less mainstream English creams (Gentlemen's Tonic, Piccadily etc), made by Creighton, the same supplier to big 3 T's but often cheaper.

I love the Red La Toja Classic and was extremely disappointed when I was told it was out of production. This summer, even in Spain, it was nowhere to be found. Why the company decided to discontinue an evergreen classic is beyond my comprehension.
I think that Arko shaving cream is very underrated product and actually better than much well known stick - cost like nothing in a place where I live (0.8$)
Speick shaving cream - in the tube, NOT the stuff in plastic case! Excellent product - easy to lather, great slick foam and skin care, scent is also very nice
Figaro, Barbon (Hungary), Kyna (Bulgaria), Palmira - they are all very good and cheap creams

This Turkish cream was produced by order of one of the Russian retail chains. He's very good. But, unfortunately, it is no longer available for purchase.
The cream from Belarus is very good. How were you able to buy it? It’s very easy for me to do this in Russia.
What you see on the tube "каро" is Cyrillic. So it should be read as Karo.
I doubt you will find a difference in the lather of the 3 Karo varieties. The Classic is just old barbershop style. Plain soapy. Many users can't catch the tiny thread of lemon in it Hannes mentioned. The Fresh is lemony (ingerdients say lemon juice). The Sensitive is linden, but don't be surprised if it doesn't smell like linden. Overall don't expect strong or fancy scents. These creams are made to perform for as little money as possible.
After receiving a sample of the Edwin Jagger Aloe Vera cream I ordered the full tube. I’m really enjoying it.
