I purhased this for use with my Badger hair shaving brush. I shave with both a straight razor and/or safety razor after recently giving up on the disposable types.
This is the best shave cream I have used yet. Has the classic barber shop scent, not too prefumed as some others seem. Just a bit of that nostalgic scent of the barber shop. Scent fades shortly, so dont worry you wont smell like that all day.
Worked up a thick creamy foam very quickly by simply putting a dab onto my damp brush, the applying directly to my face. Very quick to foam and applies well. Interestingly, it even seemed to rinse off of my razor cleaner than many of the other products I have tried.
This is my favorite shaving cream, I will purchase more. I also enjoyed using Proraso Shaving Soap with Aloe and Green Tea - Ultra Sensitive Skin 150ml/5.2oz as well and would recomend that to anyone who prefers shaving soaps to shaving creams.

I have a sensitive skin and after trying many alternatives including Proraso, I have found Musgo to be one of the best shaving experience. I would highly recommend it. Make sure that you use a good quality brush along with a good razor.

If this is your first "real" shave cream, then I think that you picked a good one. Great , old school scent, not as cheap as canned goop but pretty far off from the Truefitt and Hills, and Art of Shavings of the world. (which we will come back to later)
At it's price point, I think it's a hands down winner. If it is reviewed as a shaving cream,including those more and less expensive, we start losing some points , due to the competition.
Pros
The smell, the smell , the smell. What a great , understated , scent. Pairs nicely with the ol' DE razor.
Lanolin. This has to be the least expensive cream out there that actually has lanolin in it.
Razor definitely glides across this stuff and it doesn't goop up the blade
So if it's so great, then why only three stars?
Cons
You will use a lot of this stuff to get an equivalent lather to Art of Shaving, Truefitt or really any of the other great creams I've tried. I am no...Read more
