Old Spice

Presented here, in an effort to assist the consumer, is an objective and un- biased product comparison review of four brands of shaving gels and creams. Each of the reviewed brands works effectively, yet each has certain features, or characteristics, that define, or set it apart from the other shaving gels and creams reviewed here.

A) CareOne (TM) Shave Gel For Men
Widely- available in supermarkets, particularly in the northeastern United States, CareOne (TM) Shave Gel is a very effective, concentrated gel that offers extra protection from nicks and cuts. Featuring extra lubricating ingredients and emollients, this product consistently provides close, comfortable shaves, while offering maximum protection from gashes and abrasions. The uniquely- designed gel- applicator features a gentle- to- the- touch button that releases enough gel needed for the average man’s beard in 2 or 3 applications, allowing for little or no waste or mess. Although this brand of shave gel is often priced lower than most well- known brands, it always offers a truly high- quality shave and leaves the user’s skin feeling refreshed and smelling delightfully clean.

B) Edge (R) Advanced (TM) Shave Gel
Attractively packaged in a thin, sleek metal can with modernistic graphics, Edge (R) Advanced (TM) Shave Gel is a highly- concentrated and very effective product. With an easy- to- use push button that generally releases just the right amount of shave gel for the average man to shave with, almost no mess or waste is produced by this shave gel. This brand of shave gel adheres to a man’s beard quickly and lathers to a manageable consistency in seconds.

Containing a special blend of facial cleansers, which help remove dirt and oil from skin surfaces, Edge Advanced Shave Gel always provides for a comfortable and refreshing shaving experience. The lather produced by this highly- formulated shave gel provides excellent protection from cuts, nicks and irritation. A true benefit of utilizing this top- quality shave gel, is the refreshingly smooth and conditioned feeling that the skin takes- on after use of this product. A clean and non- overpowering fragrance is another highlight of Edge Advanced Shave Gel. An interesting note, is that among the ingredients listed in this product is sunflower seed oil glyceride. Edge Advanced Shave Gel is a product of S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc.

C) Gillette (R) Series Shave Gel
Also packaged in a sleek, shiny and modernistic- looking metal can, Gillette (R) Series Shave Gel is a highly- recommended product. Of all the shave gels and creams reviewed here, the Gillette Series Shave Gel can dispenses gel in the most effective and well- portioned manner. This product is formulated with tea tree oil, which helps penetrate and clean the skin, while providing a smooth, close and comfortable shave, which leaves the user feeling refreshed. Featuring their Anti- Friction (TM) gel, which enhances razor glide, this shave gel always produces excellent shaves and possesses the best- smelling fragrance of any of the shave gels reviewed here.

D) Old Spice (R) Moisturizing Shave Cream
Although this product is the only shave cream of the products reviewed here, it is also probably the most well- known brand name of all the reviewed products. For many years, American consumers have relied on Old Spice (R) Moisturizing Shave Cream to provide not only close, smooth and comfortable shaves, but also to enjoy the refreshing and bracing sense of cleanliness and distinctive fragrance offered by this top- quality product.

Because shaving cream in and of itself, is a different product from shave gel, it is recommended that users shake the can of Old Spice Moisturizing Shave Cream well, before using. This light and fliuffy shave cream is easily dispensed via a gentle- to- press button, that dispenses the proper amount of shave cream for the average man’s beard in two or three presses of the button. This product is also specially- formulated to help protect the user’s skin from cuts, nicks and shaving irritation.

While some consumers may prefer the use of shaving gels, this top- of- the- line shaving cream always delivers excellent shaves, while providing extra protection and a unique, clean and crisp fragrance. This product is highly- recommended.
