Clinique for Men Cream Shave 4.2 Ounce

Great product, good value, and arrived on time

excelent

I have been an Amazon shopper for a long time and have been asked often to review many products. I like almost everything I order from the company, but have been loath to write a review for no better reason than I just dont want to take the time. The Cream Shave is my one exception. I will travel to the ends of the earth (that is, if its flat) to procure Clinique Shave Cream. It is by far the best shave cream, including gels, foams, etc., that Ive ever used. On rare occasion, I run out and have to resort to what other makers claim is the best shaving product around. I beg to differ. I have never had a more consistently close and smooth shave than with the Cream Shave. You dont need a lot, as I have read in another review. A fairly thin layer is all thats required and it never dries on your face. What I do to begin is to shave above my upper lip (the mustache area) and chin, as they grow the most stubble and are the most sensitive areas. Then I put on a second layer in the shaved area and shave it again along with the rest of my face. That way, I get the closest shave imaginable with no nicks. And, btw, the applied Cream Shave stays moist all along. I cannot recommend this product strongly enough. One of my lifelong quests, which Im sure I share with many men, has (had) been to get the perfect shave. I even tried electric razors much to my sensitive skins displeasure. At long last about 15 years ago, I discovered Clinique Cream Shave and its been smooth sailing (I mean, shaving) ever since. My only regret is that I now take a smooth, close shave for granted.

as promised

This is great shaving cream and particularly good for travel. You use very little at a time so it lasts much longer than a similarly sized foam or gel. One star knocked off because the same item is available on the Clinique website for the same price but with no $4.00 delivery charge (as of December 2014). Pricey at $16, super-pricey at $20.

Personally I like the Aloe gel better and buying it from Amazon is way more expensive then going to a Department store but the product works well enough.

I have been an avid user of the product for over a decade and, frankly, there is none better in the marketplace. The Cream Shave stays moist and doesnt dry up on my face like so many other gels, foams, etc. I get a smooth shave every time with no cuts. Moreover, I use a minimal amount of product to cover my face. Its that effective.

Very gritty compound. Feels like a good facial scrub, only downside is a smallish tube, maybe last one month…? But I really like this.
