Advantages: Quick, thick lather

Disadvantages: Cannister design

For the short period of time that I have been wet shaving, I have always used a soap stick - whilst maybe not as quick as shaving foam, I always found it so much more natural. So I wasn't particularly open to the idea of trying this new shaving foam, that came in a two pack with some Nivea aftershave.

However I was soon converted. I found that not only was the foam quicker, as expected, but that the lather was just as thick, all over the face. Whilst I found that I was often left with an excess of shaving foam on my hands, that was only a minor problem, and after the first few uses, you realise how much foam one needs.

In the past, the lower region of my face and chin would often turn red after shaving, and yet this issue never cropped up when shaving with this foam, which also in my opinion provided a much smoother shave, though I would debate whether or not it was closer.

I was so impressed that I went out to look for more, to stock up, and I was able to pick a cannister up for 79p. My only other minor qualm would be the nature of the cannister - often there is a small amount of foam that dispenses itself, so when one opens the cannister again there is a slight gooey mess - but that might just be my bad luck.

Summary: Definetely worth having a look at, even if you are an avid soap fan
