I am going through a few pre-shave oils for a post and I want to know what are some favorites out there?
Favorite Pre-Shave Oil?
- Thread starter Craig the barber
- Start date
Hackett is very good for the price (£2.99), art of shaving gave me good results, did once use an organic oil which was good but cant remember its name, currently using founders reserve mandarin & patchouli and i find it excellent as you only need a very small amount to get the blade to slide over that stubble, their shaving cream and pre shave hot towel mask is great as well.

Taffy that's a great one thanks!
I have tried the Art of Shaving Unscented and Anthony Logistics preshave oil. Think I prefer the AOS slightly.
I've used the AoS, but I don't really think it helps that much, at least not for me. I use it occasionally only because I have it -- I will not buy it again.
Plain sweet almond oil. Less than two dollars for two ounces (you can probably get it even cheaper). I'm not saying that it is the best stuff out there, but it works and seems to be real good for my skin.
I have to get some sunflower seed oil and try that soon as well.

Checkout this link. Started using Dr. Bronner soap which is a mixture of many oils as a preshave. Price is dirt cheap and works well.

Kyle's prep.
Nice
E shave is what I have as of now
Pure olive oil, not extra virgin, works well. The only thing I don't like about oil preshave is the mess it leaves in the sink.
