While there's little love around Badger & Blade for the old canned goo, surely it's not THAT bad! Of course, like most, I'd rather shave with my TOBS or my Proraso or my Cella, but sometimes it's necessary to grab the canned goo and the Trac II for a quick shave.
:shaving:
So, welcome to...

The $2 Shaving Foam Tournament!
It’s all about eight inexpensive canned shaving foams playing for the championship! Contenders are commonly found in stores for $2 or less. Match-ups are head-to-head tournament style with three rounds of play (quarter-final, semi-final, and final). Each match-up will be held on my face, with one contender on the left side, and the other on the right side. Contenders are evaluated by me for 1) Glide/Cushion, 2) Fragrance, and 3) Post-Shave Feel. Each game winner advances to the next round. The loser is eliminated. Let’s play!

The Contenders:
Barbasol Original
Gillette Foamy Regular
Barbasol Soothing Aloe
Barbasol Pacific Rush
Gillette Foamy Sensitive Skin
Barbasol Sensitive Skin
Nivea Sensitive
Equate Sensitive Skin
(note: these are not included in the PIF)

In and I'll take the Nivea.

EDIT: Didn't see the CONUS only bit, might have been an edit? I'm down to pay the difference in international shipping if you're cool with that, but if not then I'm out.

I'm in. Nivea Sensitive.

I can't pass up those soaps and creams. Love me some Arko, only tried one of their creams in a tube though.
 
I'm in. Barbasol Pacific Rush (mainly because I love the scent profile and is a great aftershave, to me anyway...:tongue_sm).
