Advantages: Kind to the skin

Disadvantages: None

Now before I start, lets just make it clear. I used this product when shaving an area of my body that was not my face. However, the same principles should apply! I would normally wax, but when pushed for time, we have to cut the odd corner.

Anyway, cut to the chase, how did this shaving cream perform?

Well, quite simply, the best I've ever used.

The 200ml tub is a screw top and the cream can be applied by scooping some up in your fingers and rubbing it on to the area to be shaved.

The cream feels very kind to the skin. Soothing, slippery and moisturizing. All you need really! It works up a nice lather and covers your skin nicely. It only has a light fragrance, and is certainly not overwhelming.

The big plus of course, is that it is manufactured to the Body Shops strict ethical standards. On some products, this gives you a compromise on quality, but this is not the case with the shaving creme.

Many shaving products come with very strong colours or smells, but this creme is simply effective and kind to your skin.

It is slightly pricy compared to other cremes on the market, but It will last a long time and I guess you pay a premium for ethically sound items like this.

The ingredients are listed below in case they make any sense to you!
