Cremo Barber Grade Sage & Citrus Shave Cream, Astonishingly Superior Ultra-Slick Shaving Cream Fights Nicks, Cuts and Razor Burn, 6 Fl Oz (2 Pack)

I’ve tried just about every shaving cream under the sun, and nothing compares to this! The Cremo Barber Grade Original Shave Cream has completely changed my shaving routine. From the moment I put it on, I could tell this wasn’t your average cream. It’s incredibly slick, which allows the razor to glide effortlessly across my skin without pulling or tugging. Honestly, it feels like my razor is floating.What’s truly remarkable is that even with such a close shave, I’ve had no nicks, no cuts, and zero razor burn. For someone with sensitive skin, this is a game-changer. I used to dread shaving because of the irritation afterward, but with Cremo, my skin feels smooth and irritation-free every single time.A little goes a long way too! You don’t need to use a ton of product—just a thin layer is enough to get that ultra-slick effect, which makes the 6-ounce tube last a lot longer than you’d expect. And let’s talk about the scent—it’s fresh, clean, and subtle, which is a nice bonus. It leaves me feeling refreshed without being overpowering.

This shaving cream has done absolute wonders toward helping me achieve the smooth, clean-shaven look I desire.My facial hair tends to grow pretty quickly, which means I usually have some fairly heavy beard stubble within just 24 hours of my next shave. Prior to discovering this Cremo product, my daily shaving routine in the morning consisted of using a Norelco electric shaver coupled with a pre-shave powder stick (i.e., Remington Face Saver Model SP-5). Due to my heavier stubble, using any sort of disposable razor blade was completely out of the question because doing so had previously proven too uncomfortable and irritating for my sensitive facial skin.I used that electric shaving method for years, but never actually felt (literally!) as if I was ever getting a truly close shave and frequently disliked my resulting facial appearance by just early to mid-afternoon. Because of my rapid stubble growth, it was not uncommon for me to appear as if I had the beginnings of a classic five o’clock shadow… WAY before five o’clock. That really irritated me because I always felt as though it made me appear rather unkempt (especially in the workplace), despite my very best efforts to appear otherwise.One day back in 2016, I happened to stumble upon this Cremo Original product in the shaving aisle at Walmart. The squeeze tube graphics caught my eye so I proceeded to read the info on the back of it. The claims of this cream were intriguing so I decided to give it a try…just for the heck of it. Wow, was this ever a game-changer! I was totally impressed by it then... and remain so today. Ever since, my face feels as smooth as a baby’s bottom (sound’s too much like a cliché, I know), which I had never before thought would even be possible to achieve without getting some sort of pricey professional shave.These days, my daily shaving routine still consists of pre-shaving with my electric razor for the purpose of cutting most of the longer stubble, but then immediately following up with Cremo and a 4-blade (my own personal preference) disposable safety razor. This provides me with a really close and smooth final shave without experiencing any discomfort from pulling or tugging on any longer stubble. To some folks, this method might seem a bit unconventional, but it’s really not that time-consuming and provides the kind of results I personally desire.Cremo makes your skin VERY slippery and that allows the razor blade to glide ever so easily over your face, cutting the stubble with far less effort. Plus, there's no discomfort or skin irritation (i.e., razor burn) afterwards. It’s like lube for one’s face…and it’s really a very simple--yet highly-effective--product.Personally, I find the mild, citrusy scent of this Original shaving cream to be quite pleasant and refreshing and have no idea why some reviewers seem to take issue it. It’s not particularly strong or offensive-smelling at all, despite the way they might make it seem. To each their own, I guess.Here’s the directions from the back of the Cremo tube: “Rub skin with the hottest water you can stand for 30 seconds. Crème is highly concentrated and water activated. Massage an almond-sized dollop onto your wet skin until a light lather forms. Less is often best. Shave. Add water as needed to keep it slippery, effective and easy to rinse from razor.”Just as those instructions say, I find that the most important part of this whole process is to first soften the stubble with hot water. The hotter the water and longer you can precondition (i.e., soften) your skin using hot water, the better. That’s how I manage to achieve the very smoothest shave. If I rush this part of the process and/or use water that’s less hot, then the resulting shave is simply not as good. It’s basically the same type of thing that the old-time barbers used to do when they placed a very hot towel on one’s face prior to using a straight razor. Whenever I’m not pressed for time, I’ll also occasionally shave while standing in the shower because I find that I can really soften up my entire face with hot water for a longer period of time that way.Also, just as the Cremo instructions say, only an almond-size amount of this cream is needed. Believe it or not, that small amount really does go a long way and there’s really no need to use any more than that amount. For me, this has the added advantage of extending the amount of product usage I can squeeze out of one single tube of Cremo.Whenever I feel as though some extra lubrication is necessary, while shaving, I simply splash on a bit of additional hot water and rub things a little bit to relubricate. It’s as simple as that, just like the directions say. A little bit of water is all that’s needed… not more cream. Over-lathering does nothing more than waste product and serve to clog the disposable razor blade.In summary, I most definitely recommend this cream! I only wish that it hadn't taken me so many years to discover a product like this one. C’est la vie.

Nope that’s not a typo, 1 tube of shaving cream lasted 1,083 days since 9-10-2021 to 8-28-2024! So when I finish with both tubes I will stretch this purchase to over 6 years! For context, I only shave around the top and bottom of my beard, four times a week, and I only use a pea size amount of shaving cream. That being said, I used to buy typical gel/foam shaving cream every three months or so. I then found Cremo and decided to give this a try. I will never go back to any other product. Why would I need to? If you’re on the fence, hopefully this review will convince you to give Cremo a try.

If your bathroom is steamy and humid when you shave, it works well. However, if it’s a dryer environment, the shaving cream dries up before you can get your whole face shaved.

Probably the best shaving cream I've ever used between foams, creams, gels, or whatever else. Finally found the stuff that stopped razor burn on my face and everywhere else I shave. Really like the tingle the peppermint gives when you're done

This has a great scent. Lathers so nicely. Makes shaving a pleasure. I bought this for my husband but I use it all the time. I prefer the scent to most of the “women’s” shaving creams.

Love this bran smells great still hasn’t let me down

Great shaving cream, love the cooling sensation. Good price for a two pack toBoot

Love this creamy product often hard to find in stores

Feels like top quality stuff but at the end of the day doesnt reduce any nicks and burns at all, infact its cold so after warming up your beard i dunno who this would help over soap which might be less cold. Also you have to apply a lot more than say a gel so this also will not last as long.

Comes well packed and sealed so you know it hasn’t leaked, this shaving cream has been great so far. Doesn’t lather too much and has a citrusy fragrance to it, it gives a very close shave with minimal skin burn and irritation.
