Rocky Mountain Barber Company Shaving Cream for Men with Sandalwood Essential Oil - Thick Lather for Traditional and Cartridge Shaving - – 5oz Tin

Great shave cream! I like to use shaving soaps but when I am in a pinch for time, use this instead. Makes awesome lather, smells great, and the razor glides with ease. Also, a little goes a long way so tin lasts for awhile.

This is definitely some high quality shaving creme. My face is exceptionally smooth after shaving and the smell is great. Minimizes knicks and cuts and provides a totally smooth shave and your skin feels wonderful after use.

I looked for a long time to find a shaving cream that wasn't loaded with ingredients that I didn't want all over my face. This one fit the bill, and it did not disappoint. I've used Proraso (which is very nice), and Art of Shaving (all Sandalwood), and for the price, smell, and feel, the Rocky Mountain wins out. Not to put down Proraso or Art of Shaving. Art of Shaving Sandalwood has an amazing smell, and I love their pre-shave, and after shave balms, but I wanted something with fewer, and simplier ingredients. The Rocky Mountain Barber Company (whew, that's a lot to type, let's go with RMBC), shaving cream is made with the following: Water, Stearic Acid, Cocos Nucifera (coconut oil), Glycerin, Potassium Hydroxide, Aloe Barbadensis, Sodium Hydroxide, Fragrance/parfum, Menthol, Sodium Borate, Glyceral Caprylate and Glycercal Undecylenate, Allantoin, Santalum Spicatum (sandalwood) oil. It's got real sandalwood oil in it (other creams will only list it as fragrance, but this has the real Santalum Spicatum in it), but the smell, probably from the coconut oil is somewhat sweet, and the addition of menthol makes it go on very cool. You almost don't need an after shave balm with this. Just rinse with cold water, and you'll really feel it. It's awesome. I will say that this is much more viscous than other creams. It goes on thick, and I find myself needing to really clean out my double edge razor. I think the trick is that a little goes a long way. There's no need to over-do the application. Since it is a little more viscus, I find I need to clean out my application brush a little better than with other creams. Small price to pay however for a shaving cream that is fantastic. The tin is high quality and could be used to store spent razors (if you use double edge) for later disposal. All in all. This is great stuff.

I have used different brands of shaving creams and I finally found one that leaves my skin smooth after shaving. This is a recurring purchase for me now, its the only shaving cream I use and will use as long as they sell it. The smell, how it lathers on your skin and how great the shave is after is what you are looking for! and let me tell you, it pays dividends every time. I only shave every 3 days and I don't dread it at all. I have started to use more rocky mountain items because I thoroughly enjoyed this product so much and have recommended it to all my friends. Also, I really like the sandalwood smell. The value for the money here is 10/10 - The 5 oz tin lasts me so long is not even funny. I do understand that some people may shave everyday and they may go through it fast but I am lucky I only have to do it twice a week. I would definitely pay full price if I need but I have seen it at a discount. What's the best thing about this product? its Canadian Made! another reason to support them for sure. I will forever be a loyal customer!

Best creamed I've used so far when shaving with no prep and in terms of sickness. I think this cream is best when face lathering as it doesn't build lather much as others or as quickly, but don't let that deter you as even with less visible lather it doesn't take away its performance. You can still get a creamy lather if you use more and work it longer. It was slick when I was just using a little bit with a wet face. This will now be my go to if I'm in a hurry and or dont have time to shower and prep or whip up lather in a bowl. It has menthol so during the shave you will feel it's cooling affect. Some people find it weird especially pairing menthol with a sandalwood scent but that's subjective it doesn't bother me. After the shave feels nice, I can feel the ingredients doing good for my skin. The scent - not sure if it's my favorite or not yet but it's one of the better sandalwood creams/soaps I've tried out of 5 others, it definitely got my attention most. It has a very nice and definitely sweet aroma. It is not a woody, ashy or smokey scent like actual sandalwood but it has a hint of sandalwood smell while mostly being "sweet". The smell is strong when sniffing the tin of cream, but after the shave it maybe lasts 2~ hours and is not so strong after use. The -1 star for this product is it's value. It would at least be alright if the tin is filled to near its brim but it comes with 1/4 of the tin already missing. Quite unsatisfying to see that empty chunk. It feels like the cream can be used up quite fast or faster than others too. While this isn't the most expensive as there are more expensive artisans soaps out there, still it's not of great value. It was worth buying the first time to try it as it pleased me but will have to really consider if I will buy more later. You can find alternatives that are cheaper, shave well, and last longer.
