What is shaving cream?
Shaving Cream is a product used during shaving. It ensures that the hairs become soft and simultaneously creates a thin protective layer over the skin. This prevents the skin from being damaged during shaving.
What are the benefits of using a shaving cream?
A shaving cream is easy to use because the cream is easy to lather. The shaving foam created with a shaving cream stays on the skin for a long time, retains water, allows your razor to glide smoothly over your skin, and ensures that the skin does not dry out. Many different variants are available, such as creams with Aloe Vera, which softens the skin and hair, or with Eucalyptus oil, which stimulates and calms the skin. Additionally, a shaving cream is available in many different packages, such as a jar or tube. So there is always a shaving cream that perfectly matches your needs.
How do you apply shaving cream?
Shaving Creams are applied with an authentic shaving brush like a synthetic shaving brush. With a wet shaving brush (lukewarm to warm water), the cream is applied to the face. The brush makes the cream lather. Once the beard hairs are covered, the shaving can begin.
For a perfect shaving experience, using a shaving bowl in combination with the brush is highly recommended. In a shaving bowl, you can create a nice shaving foam with the shaving brush in a bowl. This makes it even easier to spread the foam over your face. Afterwards, we recommend a aftershave or alum stone before storing your items in your razor case.
For men with a beard, we recommend using a shaving cream along with a beard oil, beard shampoo, and beard brush to give your beard a good grooming. To complete this grooming, we also recommend using a transparent shaving gel, beard balm, shaving towel, preshave and beard butter.
What is the difference between shaving cream and shaving soap?
A shaving cream is a softer substance than a shaving soap. This makes it easier to lather and also easy to get on the brush. They are often in jars like shaving soap but can also be bought in tubes. Because the shaving cream is so easy to lather, it is often used by beginners just like a shaving foam . A shaving cream often has a few more chemicals added. This makes the product very versatile because various ingredients can be added, such as a shaving oil. For example, there are shaving creams specifically for dry and sensitive skin, and the scent can also be made much stronger.
Which brands sell the best shaving cream?
A shaving cream is very personal. Every man has his own preference for scent and substance. Additionally, when purchasing a shaving cream, you should consider your skin type. For example, if you have dry skin, it's best to choose a cream that hydrates your skin.
In general, there are a few brands that are considered to make the best quality shaving creams. These are Taylor of Old Bond Street and Proraso.
