Shaving Cream for Men with Sandalwood Essential Oil - Thick Lather for Traditional and Cartridge Shaving - by Rocky Mountain Barber Company – 5oz Tin

I have always wanted to try this type of shaving cream and so glad I did. This stuff is amazing and a LITTLE goes a long ways.I bought the brush also. I run warm to hot water on the brush to soften up the brush. Then put like a tiny dab of shaving cream on it and rub it on. I am really amazed by how smooth this shaving cream is and it smells good. Once all shaved rinse off the brush and all done, it’s truly that easy. I will buy again and will never go back to Edge shaving cream. I am supporting a local American product.

I've been on the hunt for a great shaving cream for as long as I have been shaving, for the past 20 years. I really don't like any of the box store canned sprays. I prefer using a shaving brush, and I need a cooling aspect. I have tried and liked Art of Shaving, but don't find the value to match it's high price point.Thus far, I've Pacific Shaving Company caffeinated cream has been my staple for the past few years. Recently, they increased the price, and my local Target stopped carrying it, so I decided to explore other options. I tried a few hyphy brands from Ulta, just to be overspent and disappointed.So I found Rocky Mountain Barber (and Taylor, and Viking Revolution). While some reviewers complained of the menthol aspect of RMB, this was the exact selling point for me.The RMB shave is so soothing and cooling, that I don't end up with irritation. I can actually shave daily.The initial lather was a bit thick, tacky, and almost sticky. Blending and lathering with a tiny bit of water resolves this issue, or a perfect viscosity.The scent is great, a spicy woody scent, but not too strong or overbearing. It has a bit of that barbershop throwback smell (so I wonder what the Barbershop scent smells like in comparison). Some reviewers complained that the scent wasn't strong enough or lasted long enough, but me, this is a great thing. I don't want to have an insanely strong smell.So in short, I get a very clean, soothing shave, that smells great. As others have said, practice with your water to soap ratio to find your ideal lather.

Gray lather and smell is ok

Shaving senior here, tried it all, went back to single blade double edge in a slim adjustable 10+ years ago. Lots of blades, soaps, creams, this one among the few to earn my 5 star rank for smoothness, easy of lathering( yes, use a brush and bowel), quantity and quality. Take time to improve your technique, you've only 1 face!

it came very greese from the outside and oily staff was out of the peckage. not sealed properly. all the cream inside was mishmash (as a cream should be) but you could see that part of it was dismental outside. not going to order moreAfter few days of using i would sat the product is good and shaving is very much enjoyable. Just dont order long distances....

So I've been shaving with Taylor of Old Bond St. Sandalwood Shaving Cream for the past year and I use a Panasonic Wet/Dry razor. Started off really well with the T of OB St and I kept placing repeat orders because I loved the smell. However, after about the second, or third order something changed and it no longer had that strong Sandalwood smell. As a matter of fact I knew it was time to start looking for a new product when my wife stated that the T of B smelled like hair removal cream.So I took a shot in the dark and ordered the Rocky Mountain Sandalwood Shave Cream. When first opening the can it sorta/kinda smells a bit like Sandalwood however, after you apply it to your face it's hard to detect, but it does have a very nice, pleasant smell. Most importantly it gets the approval of "her that must be obeyed".What I really like is the way it lathers up with my badger bristle brush and it produces a great tingle of menthol after shaving and rinsing off.All in all, good to go. Hopefully, the Canadians up there in the N. Woods cranking out the product can maintain quality control and deliver the same level of consistency for my follow-on orders.

I got into brush shaving a while back and was paying $$$$ too much for Art of Shaving versions of the oil and shave cream. Tried several other shave creams and soaps, besides AOS, including Lather & Wood and Van Der Hagan. AOS products usually provided richer lather, but were too pricey. This shave cream reminds me a lot of the AOS shave cream, but at a much more affordable price. Lather is rich and creamy off a brush. You don't need much. Maybe a dime size dollop. I put that on the lid and use the brush to work up a lather that I then apply to my face. There's usually enough cream to do one pass with the grain and then lather up again to go against the grain. The menthol is a nice soothing touch that I really enjoy. And the cream provides great glide for the razor. The remainder also rinses off cleanly. I'm definitely going back to this one again.

For those who want a premium shaving cream that doesn’t cost $30, this is an excellent product. Unlike the competing products, this has a stickier consistency, which actually lifts up the facial hairs for a closer shave. You also don’t need too much product for each shave, which helps the product last longer. It has a really nice cooling scent and feel after the shave. I’ve bought other products from Rocky Mountain (shampoo, etc.) and they have all been excellent. Highly recommended.
