Recommended shaving creams

[Dalli]

Hi all,

I'm looking to try a different shaving cream that ticks the following boxes (in order of priority).

1. Protective
2. Moisturising
3. Good scent

I've got pretty sensitive skin, so a protective cream is a must. Otherwise I tend to minor irritation, usually around the neck area with daily shaving. I haven't tried many creams, but here are my current ones in order of preference:

-Trumper Coconut (all three)
-Musgo Real (all three)
-DR Harris Arlington (protective, great scent, fairly moisturising)
-TOBS Mr Taylor (protective, good scent, fairly moisturising )
-Speick (great scent, not as protective as the others)

All except Speick keep my skin in good condition with daily shaving.

You might like some of the Kiss My Face creams. There are several scents to choose from, extremely moisturizing, and no parabens.
Art of Shaving creams are very nice. Real Shaving Company has a nice cream for sensitive skin.

Castle Forbes Lime or Lavender. You won't believe how luxurious these are.

Proraso Red is my favorite cream. Razorock, Edwin Jagger, and Arko are soaps that I find to work great with my super sensitive skin.

+1,to all. I highly recommend AOS Lavender.

There are some excellent artisan creams available. Al's "The Bomb" creams and QCS creams are on par with any of the big boys, IMHO.

Along with their Coconut, Trumpers Almond is right there IMHO. I second everyone on Castle Forbes. In this cooler weather, CF Cedar & Sandlewood is my go to.

TOBS Avocado. Excellent performance-wyse, and the smell afterwards is not that strong at all

To name but a few...

Proraso Green or C.O. Bigelow -- menthol/eucalyptus scent
Proraso Red -- has shea butter, natural sandalwood scent
Nancy Boy signature -- sort of a fresh, minty scent, excellent cream, very moisturizing
Godrej -- contains lanolin, good protection
TOBS Rose -- smells great, very moisturizing
AOS -- all-around great creams

All are great performers IMHO.

Went through a whole tube of the Sensitive version of this cream. Really was a good performer for the whole $1 it cost me. Another excellent product is Speick which is the only cream I have amongst the soaps.
