Today I stopped by Crabtree & Evelyn and picked up a tub of "Sweet Almond Oil Shaving Cream" and a bottle of C&E Sienna Luxury Aftershave Balm.
The shave went fairly well. The cream smells great and provides lots of lubrication. However I found that my skin stayed really slippery after the razor pass. This made it quite difficult to get a grip and stretch the skin. Is it possilbe fore a cream to provide TOO much lubrication? I'll have to try it again and see if I have a similar result.
On the other hand the Sienna afterhave balm was absolutly wonderful. It smells incredible and leaves the face smooth with just a touch of a tingle.
