Should you be using a Shave Gel or a Shave Cream?
Want to know something cool? Apparently, there are approximately 30,000 beard hairs on an average male face… not that we’re counting.
Either way, that’s a lot of hairs. So if you’re the kind of person who enjoys a clean shave, then you want to catch ‘em all. We know that using good quality products gives the best results, but with a whole host of choices out there, it’s difficult to decide what works best.
SHAVEL GEL
,or
SHAVE CREAM
? The question remains. Luckily, your indecision just caught a break, because we’ve broken down the pros and cons of each product into the parts of your shave that matter.
How long do you take to shave?
Is your routine fast-paced or a little more leisurely? Here’s how these products measure up.
SHAVE GEL
Designed to be a convenient way to lubricate the skin, using a Shave Gel will help you shave (pun intended) a few moments off your hair-removal ritual. Our Gel starts to foam as soon as it leaves the canister, meaning you can apply it straight away.
SHAVE CREAM
We often consider Shave Cream to be the more luxurious of the two options, because it should be worked into a generous lather before applying to the skin. Like to spend a little more time on yourself? Do it the traditional way - use a cream.

How much do Shave Gels and Shave Creams lather?
Say it with us now; “I will never dry shave again, for as long as I live.” Great! But how much cushioning you get depends on which product you use.
SHAVE GEL
The added fun-factor of fashioning a foamy moustache is what makes Shave Gel so great. Its lather creates a layer of lubrication between the blades and the skin. Why foam? Its expansion helps lift the hair from your face, resulting in a nice, clean cut. Science.
SHAVE CREAM
Shave Cream really comes into its own during a wet shave, and needs to be worked up between the palms of your hands. The result? A creamy, conditioning coating that sits alongside the skin - giving you a close shave.

How do Shave Gels and Shave Creams work?
How the product feels on your skin is a good indicator of the good it’s doing for your skin.
