GADA COOL MINT from lebanon...nice looking modern easy squeeze tube ,with english on one side and arabic on the other side...the ingredients are listed in arabic ,and english or french...the english is sometimes covered by a cheezy sticker with french wording for french speaking canadians..the consistency straight out of the tube was a semi soft glistening cream,you could really see the moisture in this stuff...the scent is minty with a little mens "fresh" perfume thrown in..great smell...along with the coconut oil and lanolin,this cream contains a dab of old fashioned vaseline...man ! does it work ! when I was through shaving I needed nothing else at all,it really moisturizes and nourishes the skin,great job...it lathered up quickly,not a big foamy puff,but a nice thick cream..I face lathered with an old gimbels handle stuffed with a golden nib 24mm short thick loft silvertip...the third photo is after I had face lathered...I make several passes,4-6 always,and there was enough lather left to re-shave my whole face...the post shave photo doesn't look that way,but that dense badger hair is saturated very nicely...when I am through shaving I do not want to see tons of cream left over,that means I used too much and am just wasting good cream,,I try to conserve as much as possible...my grandfathers 1963 gillette adjustable was loaded with a czech tiger.I always had good luck with these tigers,and this blade,razor,cream combo was a real delight ..just super smooth...I have a hard time along the jaw line and will hit it from every angle,and at least with 5 passes,not a trace of irritation,that vaseline really really works !...although it was not necessary,I finished up with a shot from the penguin,a perfect compliment to the wonderful gada scent...a fine fine shave
