Shaving Cream - Luxury Sandalwood Shave Cream From Gentlemans Face Care Club - Large 90 Day Supply 150ml Pot

This is the first time I have purchased this item. The pot (150 ml) looks small, so I am not sure I will get 90 days (90 shaves) out of it. If I do get 90 days use it will be good value, but if much less than 90 it could work out expensive.It is an excellent product and works up a very creamy, scented lather to give a very comfortable and pleasant shave.

A really good shaving cream that requires a minimal amount to lather up enough to shave with. This one small tub will last well over 6 months of daily shaving. Used with a good quality brush this gives excellent results.

This shaving cream excels at creating a rich, creamy lather with minimal effort, ensuring a smooth and comfortable shave. Its high-quality ingredients leave skin feeling soft and hydrated, a welcome departure from cheaper options. While the price is steep, a little goes a long way. However, a good shaving soap offers similar benefits, lasts even longer, and might be a more budget-friendly option. Ultimately, the choice between this cream and a soap depends on your priorities: convenience and luxury or value for money.

This is a lovely cream for shaving that smells great and lathers great too

I rarely write reviews for products unless I'm absolutely blown away by it. Let me tell you this stuff is amazing.I converted to DE shaving in 2010 and with the exception of one horrendous shave with a Gillette Fusion a couple of years ago I have been a passionate advocate of traditional shaving methods.I have in the past seven years tried the following products, TOBS, Trumpers, Kiehls, Jack Blacks, Truefitt and Hill, Proraso Red and Green, Body Shop to name but a few. I genuinely believe in Gentleman's Face Care Club I have found the holy grail of shaving creams.To prove its worth I conducted a scientific experiment using the following items.Merkur 36C DE razorNew Astra Superior Platinum Blade (1 for each shave)Edwin Jagger Badger BrushSilver mixing bowl (purchased from EBay)One ugly faced two day old unshaved face (mine).Allum blockLucky Tiger After Shave Face TonicI made sure that my face was well washed and exfoliated each time I started to shave, as all DE shavers will know preparation is key.I soaked by badger brush in hot tap water and placed a little amount of the cream in my silver bowl. Once I was ready I whipped the cream up in the bowl to a luxurious thick lather. I then applied it to my face in circular motions and noted that the cream was thick and covered my face very well. I live in the lake district so our water is soft and I believe the best in the world. I don’t have to descale my kettle ever.I performed a downward shave and rinsed my face. Then I performed a second up pass and covered my face in cold water before applying my alum block. Allowing this to dry slightly I then performed a full rinse of my face with cold water. Patted my face dry and applied Lucky Tiger.The first thing I noticed was the smooth way the blade passed my face and dealt with the stubble. There were no nicks or pulls or cuts. When I applied the alum block to my face there wasn’t the usual sting that I’m so used to.My face remained smooth and lovely for the remainder of the day and most of the next. Could this be the stuff of legends that I had been seeking?I performed the exact same shave with another product two days later, and the results were not as good. The alum block made my face scream and I had a number of cuts. Not bad technique I hasten to add.So two days later I did the same shave using Gentleman’s. Wow it was as day one. This product is wonderful. I am converted to its use and my wife even commented that my skin felt softer than before and looked better. She has been the tester of my skin for many years, and I trust her opinion over everyone else.This product gets my full five stars and is worth every one of them.Of course other shavers, blades and brushes are available so this review is purely for the cream.A wise man once told me that shaving is like cooking, you need to find the correct recipe for you and use the best ingredients…

Not a bad product but there are better. The fragrance is very light. Because it's a smaller tub than Taylors or Trumpers, it can be a little difficult to get your brush in for a light swirl. This means that you end up with an inappropriate amount on your brush. Pleasant to use but rather dry -- need to add more water in the shaving dish. I've reverted to the other two brands mentioned above.

I have literally just used this Gentleman's Face Care Club (GFCC) shaving cream for the first time this morning, and I have to say I am really impressed with it.First off the item arrived on the specified day and was well packed. The tub that the product is contained in looks good with the lion head emblem on the lid along with the GFCC name. All the ingredients that go to make up the cream are clearly stated on the back.Upon unscrewing the lid you are greeted with a pleasant smell - not overpowering, but a nice fresh, clean scent. Colour wise the cream is almost a pearlescent off white/cream colour. You get a generous amount in the tub and as I found out you only really need the smallest amount on your shaving brush, so it will last a good while.So to the shaving experience. First off - after completing all the preliminaries - I just touched the bristle tips on to the cream; it went on really easy and looked very rich. The lather that this cream supplies is a nice close knit lather, and by that I mean that the lather is not full of bubbles like you sometimes get with really cheaply made shaving products. It goes on really well and doesn't take a lot of effort to whip up a nice rich thick lather. It also stayed useable for a good while without drying out too quickly. For this shave I used a double edge razor.What I noticed right away was how smooth the razor was; I usually get the odd spotting of blood when using this type of razor, but after completing my shave there wasn't one area that spotted. Rinsing off the cream was a doddle and it came off quickly...none of this stubborn attempt to stay on your face after umpteen washes.Overall I was really impressed - as I said at the start of this review; this is one of those products you actually look forward to using again when it comes to shaving.Please note that I received this item at a discount in return for my honest and unbiased review. This had no bearing on my thoughts.
