So, I am not a big cosmetics person and I don't really care what products I use as long as they are not greasy. So, for me to write a review on a company that makes these kinds of products should tell you something.
Well, I am not a big fan of shaving, never have been. After leaving NYC about a decade ago and moving to the Bay Area (San Jose, CA), I found that what you wear and how you look has nothing to do with how you do what you do. People out here don't condemn you if you are not in a suit for work like they do in NY. So, my days of t-shirts and relaxed shaving began. My life is better.
However, after growing facial hair for over five days (sometimes seven), shaving is a real problem. I am kinda tired of electric. Using a blade (I use that four blade thing with the strip on top) with a gel shaving cream still irritates the hell out of my face...I'm sensitive!!!!
Well, when I was visiting my friend Micah in Worcester, I did not have the travel cream. His wife Iris let me use an organic product she picked up...the "Creamy Shave Gel" from Nature's Gate.
I don't know what to say. It's like I didn't even put a blade to my face. I have now been using it exclusively as my shaving solution and I have not had a problem since. I mean, I used to dread having to shave after five days. Now, no big deal. It's like my skin does not even know the blades are even there!
I included a shot of the type of beard I am talking about. Please do not be scared! read more
