Shave Creams

The most commonly associated brand with shave cream is Colgate. The invention of shave cream revolutionized the way men shave. With the start of the Industrial Revolution, men were going off to work. They had less time in the morning, while at the same time they had to focus more on their appearance. The invention of shave cream allowed men the time to shave. Shave cream was fast, easy to use, and easy to clean up. Since Colgate invented the shave cream many years ago, others have joined this category.

A lot has changed since shave creams debut. Many men are now in more of a hurry, sharing the bathroom sink and household responsibilities with their working wives. Products have been created to be more efficient. Alternatively, many products are gravitating towards a more classic look. Brands such as L’Occitane offer their shave soap in a tin. The sleek design of this product is simple and looks stylish on a bathroom counter. Others such as Musgo Real and Geo F. Trumper package their cream in tin tubes giving them a 1920’s look. With so many choices, Shave Review has completed the sorting process, so you can easily find what you’re looking for.

Our ShaveSlaves test a variety of creams, including ones that lather, ones that don’t, ones meant for brush use and ones meant for hand use. During the rating process the ShaveSlaves measure how easily the cream dispenses, how it feels on the skin and during the shaving process, how many shaves the bottle lasts, and finally, the packaging. Like our Shave Slaves, the tested shave creams also come from all walks of life. Not only do the shave creams tested range from low budget brands to designer brands, but to international brands.
