Fell off the boat with some Old Spice canned foam

[gearchow]

A few months ago I picked up a can of Old Spice Foam. I tried it last night and man oh man did it take me back to the mid 70's when I was just a 17 year old kid! The texture, the smell. It was a remarkable flashback.

I don't know what ingredients they put it in, but I think the foam has a half-life of a year or so. And I mean once out of the can!

And I had a tub of Cella sitting on the sink.

Jim, love the nostalgic aspect and I can relate to the same time period. But how did it perform? I got curious a few years ago and bought a can of OS foam. Loved the scent but it was like shaving with air!

Bill, it actually seemed ok. To me it seemed thick and had a gooey sticky aspect to it. It reminded me a lot of thick whipped (milk) cream. It lubricated just fine. It's not going to replace my Proraso or GFT or Godrej or... but if I'm feeling really lazy and want to go fast, I'll use it again.

Good to hear, Jim. Maybe I didn't shake my can long enough!
