Advantages: A cool smooth shave

Disadvantages: A little more costly

King of Shaves use all kinds of superlatives to describe this Kinexium Shaving Gel, words like advanced, enhanced and ultra leap out at you from their product blurb. Does this match up to all their superlative laced claims? Well in my estimation, if you switch from some of the more conventional products on the market which shall be nameless in case I leave myself open to lawsuit, you will get a superlative shave from this superlative product. Why?

This gel is enhanced with silicon to allow for smooth razor glide. It's a foamless, don't be looking for it to lather up, spread on very wet skin, working it into the stubble to soften and prepare and get to work with your razor. The result is a wonderfully close smooth shave which feels great due to the cooling effect of the menthol. Once you get used to it, the lack of foam is an advantage because it allows you to see the shaved areas and concentrate on getting the best possible result.

Is this Advanced Gel worth the extra cost it commands over other "standard" king of Shaves Oils or Gels? I'm not so sure it is! I have used most of the range at one time or another and have always come back to the standard stuff. While I was delighted with the results of this advanced and enhanced stuff. I was equally happy with the standard shaving oil and gel. So the answer is I don't see the need to pay the extra.

Summary: Advanced product for an enhanced result
