Texture and Application

Pros:

  • "The non-foamy texture of the cream is something I love."
  • "It's definitely meant to be applied by hand versus a brush and, again personal preference, I just don't like that."
  • "Applied onto my skin like a smooth cream. Not air filled foam."
  • "It's more of a shaving lotion, goes on like sunscreen, but is very slippery and leaves a nice smooth shave."
  • "This stuff is SUPER slippery."
  • "It offers a nice clean close shave."
  • "The cream lays down evenly and almost transparent."

Cons:

  • "I didn’t feel like it creamed up to a luxurious consistency to make the shave experience good."
  • "Even then, it just feels gummy and clogs my razor."
  • "It doesn't really lather up, which feels weird to me."
  • "Larger bubbles started to form and the whole thing seemed watery."
  • "It seems to thicken up while on the face which is probably good for traditional blades but it CLOGS my safety razor."
  • "It is very thick and difficult to get out of the razor head."
  • "It's too thick and gunky for me."

Scent

Pros:

  • "The sandlewood smell is just the right amount of 'woodsy' for my wife."
  • "I find the mild, citrusy scent of this Original shaving cream to be quite pleasant and refreshing."
  • "It has a pleasant smell -- which is good for those of us who are sensitive to smells."
  • "The absolute best thing about this cream is the scent, BAR NONE!"
  • "The sage scent sits subtly behind the citrus scent and creates a soothing mellow citrus aroma that eases me into my day quite nicely."
  • "The citrus scent is very clean and fresh."
  • "Love the scent."

Cons:

  • "The only real gripe I have is the mint effect is a bit overwhelming."
  • "The mint scent is very strong and WILL clear up your nostrils like that *snap*."
  • "We could smell the sandalwood before I even opened the box... The smell is so strong, that it just permeates whatever type of plastic is used for the tube."
  • "The scent has very little citrus to it, and i wouldn't have guessed it was sage if it hadn't been spelled out for me."
  • "This cream is way too perfumey! I could smell it before I removed the foil seal on the tube."
  • "I found the 'sandalwood' scent to be almost offensively off."
  • "The only issue I have with it is that it smells like shoe polish...."

Shaving Performance

Pros:

  • "The razor glided along like it never has before and when I was done shaving, I didn't have any of the rough, stubbly feeling below my jaw line."
  • "Provides a nice slick shave, with little to no razor burn."
  • "It offers a nice clean close shave."
  • "Cremo Cooling Shave Cream gave me the best shave of my life."
  • "My first shave with Cremo was the best I've ever had."
  • "This cream gives me the closest shave with my standard Gillet razor."
  • "I’ve never had a closer shave and I didn’t get one nick or cut!!!"
