Neutrogena Men® Skin Clearing Shave Cream

Neutrogena Men® Skin Clearing Shave Cream

If your shaving routine is taking a toll, we highly recommend seeking out the Neutrogena Men Skin Clearing Shave Cream. This unique formula is hypoallergenic, oil free, and contains glycerin to leave your skin clean and clear. This no foam formula won’t dry out your skin and was the first medicated shaving cream to minimize ingrown hair and help prevent breakouts. You get all of these benefits, plus the addition of glycerin to minimize irritation and provide a great shave. Unlike shave foams and gels, a thin layer is all you need.

Kiehl’s Lite Flite Shaving Cream

Kiehl’s Lite Flite Shaving Cream

Perfect for traditional shavers, this close comfort formula is easily applied with a shaving brush to build up a good lather. This is because Kiehl’s has specifically formulated the Lite Flite Shaving Cream to be use with shaving brushes for professional results. The combination of the rich lather and shaving brush ensures that any facial hair, especially thick beards, are evenly coated before removal. This aids in reducing razor burn caused by friction and leaves skin feeling silky and refreshed. This is also a paraben free formula.

Unlike many shaving creams, Art of Shaving has devised a no fragrance, no fuss alternative for traditional shavers.

It softens the beard for a close and comfortable shave. The Shaving Cream hydrates your hair for shaving and leaves your skin feeling smooth. It can be used with or without a shaving brush.
