Yeah, but AV Blue is a classic AS.
And so is Pinaud Clubman

That reminds me that I forgot to look for some this afternoon.If I really don't like it I can always combine it with some other detested soap, for some magically acceptable result.

People need to get over it. I like Barbershop Fresh and get great shaves with it. I always found it interesting the some wet shavers talk about how canned foam dries out their skin but they seem to have no issues using aftershave splashes that are loaded with alcohol, which dries out your skin.
I agree. I hear a lot of guys Stating" It drys out my skin" Wimpy! Wimpy! Wimpy!

theres something about a aqua velva man lol i love av musk
I dont know if Id say its wimpy, I just find it funny that they say they wont use canned goo because it dries out their skin but how much their love their artisan AS which is loaded with alcohol that also dries out their skin. To each their own, I suppose.

the biggest one is aerosol propellants.
Maybe wimpy was not the right word. We all know that aerosol cans are full of chemicals, but we still use them. I use soaps mostly and Barbasol on occasion.

but one could argue bad chemicals in these soaps on some brands especially aftershave so in my opinion if you pick on some one for canned cream pick on your self for not using full organic products.
Nothing wrong with canned shaving cream. Love Barbasol Original and Gillette Foamy Regular. Noxzema is still in my rotation also.

Razorcan: I do not doubt your experience. But I was wondering what do you mean by "know how to use" canned foam?
I prefer soaps and creams with a brush for sure. But I often do use canned foam (usually Barbasol), for time's sake, early in the morning on work days. I find to add water "thickens" the foam. Is there anything else that you do?

a little water seems to help canned stuff alot
I don't spray HALF the can of the foam on my face like those "anti foam" bozos on youtube do
I also RUB IT INTO my stubble not simply paste it on like Santa (again something all anti-foam bozos on youtube always seem to do)
I never add water,no need if you have thoroughly wet stubble (I always shave after my shower).I simply rub a SMALL quantity on my face thoroughly and go to town.
