Taylor of Old Bond Street Jermyn Street Luxury Shaving Cream for Sensitive Skin, 5.3-Ounce 01014

good item

The description says it is for sensitive skin but i found that it dried my face much more than regular shaving cream. I dont recommend this.

As someone whose got into the whole wet shaving kick a few years ago, Ive sampled probably 30+ high end shaving creams from The Art of Shaving, TOBS, Trufit and Hill, etc. This stuff is a top 5 for me for a few reasons: - The smell is wonderful. A bit like a fancy cologne, but not too strong. Seems to fade shortly after use which is perfect. - Lathers very nicely and isnt too picky about the cream/water mixture - Lathers well even in hard water - Reasonably priced - Moisturizes well I really really like this cream. It says for sensitive skin, although I dont necessarily know if I notice it being any better or worse than the other Taylor offerings for my skin, which is moderately sensitive. The container is a nice shiny black and looks high-end sitting on your countertop. Lately, Ive taken to a normal 5 blade razor and gotten rid of my DE habit just due to time. I find I get much better shaves with the traditional cartridge razors when using this cream vs. something in a can. I find its a good compromise between shave quality and time needed to shave. Highly recommended. Makes a great gift for a guy who has everything.

Like most men, Ive been using canned shave cream all my life and complaining about sensitive skin, razor burn, and ingrown hairs. A few years ago I purchased a high quality badger hair brush and have changed razors several times, but with only minimal results. I recently purchased the TOBS Jermyn Street shave cream and absolutely can not be more pleased with the results. It took me a time or two to get the right water content in the mixture, but even when I didnt get it absolutely correct, I still got a better shave than at any point in my life previously. I am still using my badger hair brush and my BIC 4-blade razor, but this change in my shaving routine made all the difference in the world. I used to have a shadow as soon as I stopped shaving, but now, I can easily go a day without any shadow. For the first time in my shaving life, I can actually shave and come to the end of my pattern and not worry about the cream being dry and just yanking hairs out of my face. I know several people have said the moisturizing effect is better with other manufacturers, but I have no complaints. Maybe its because I have a sample size of 1, but I couldnt be happier. I no longer need an aftershave and my face has NEVER felt better. I cant say enough good things about this product from TOBS. The smell is what I consider very mild. It just smells manly. I cant put my finger on what the exact smell is, but its very pleasant. Overall, if I could give it 10 stars, I would, and would recommend this without reservation to anyone.

I decided to switch to a safety razor and what not in order to stop spending a gazillion dollars on razor cartridges. It turned out to be awesome. I dunno how a shave can be an experience, but this was just that. This shave cream produced a rich lather that lasted more than long enough for me to shave my face and my head. I am sensitive to scents, so the smell of something is very important to me. If I walk by a candle store, it gives me a god awful headache. This shave cream is some of the best smelling stuff I have ever used in my life, and I am 40 this year. I can smell it on my face as I write this and it is nothing short of awesome. This cream works wonderfully, smells manly, and will not overpower your senses. Just buy it!

Love this cream.

The cream gives a thick lather so just a tiny bit portion is enough for one shave. It leaves the skin moisturized and fresh. Worth the bucks!

Its shaving cream. Smells fine, gives a good shave, priced fairly. Im not so sure about the sensitive skin part, as it performed identical to the sandalwood scent I tried, and an aloe/cucumber one.

The second shaving cream I have used recently. This whips up very quickly and feels great. The smell is not as strong as I would like, but this is great for just splashing on a good aftershave with out clashing smells. The cream does a great job gliding the razor across the skin with little to no irritation.

smells great and reduces shaving irritation. better price than some of their other products Ive seen
