Palmolive For Men Classic Palm Extract Shave Cream 100ml

Going old school with shaving cream can get you both the worst and best of options. The worst is the old foam type shave cream and the best is this tube of Palmolive. Once upon a time it was called "brushless" shaving cream because it is an actual cream and you don't need a brush to get it to lather up. I have a thick beard and usually use Edge gel for sensitive skin for the convenience and because it works well. But I keep Palmolive in my travel shaving kit because it is so much smaller and lighter than a can, you never run out by surprise, and it just works amazingly well. Just a small dab on the fingertips massaged into your beard, and you get a nick free and close shave. It has a clean, neutral scent, and washes off easily, leaving your face moisturized. The kicker is that this shaving cream is cheap. Because you only need to use a little, a tube lasts a long, long, long time. If you're even curious about whether to try this shave cream, just do it. You won't be disappointed.

I’m a wet shaver who not only appreciates the performance, but also the tradition of my shaving products. I appreciate a shaving cream that doesn’t dry the face with propellants and other unnecessary ingredients. And when those products also come at a value, it’s a hit for me. Palmolive comes in a convenient 100g tube, at half the price of the luxury brands, that come in a 50g tube. I’ve been rotating between the Palmolive and Taylor of Old Bond Street, and the two are very, very similar in performance for me. The Palmolive seems a little thinner, but also appears to be a little slicker on the face, which is great for me, as I have sensitive skin. Usually, a slicker cream provides a shave that’s not quite as close, but my beard is light, so, I appreciate the slickness. The scent is clean, a little soapy, and manly. The lather comes up not quite as readily as the TOBS, but I think that also depends on the quality of your water; ours is rather hard with lots of lime. But I can get a three-pass shave with a dime-size dollop in the scuttle. I’d say that this product is a good, everyday experience, but not particularly a treat. The treat comes when it’s time to buy more, and you get twice as much for half the price! All in all, five stars for the solid performance and great price. You just can’t go wrong!

Decent. Works best with very warm and wet skin in the shower. Dries up fast otherwise, and gives a lot of razor burn. I full head, neck and face shave and it will not stay wet enough if you lather your head and face and try to shave, I needed to hit head, neck then face separate.

What a great surprise. First of all this cream is MUCH better than the Palmolive shave stick. Not that it smells different or works different it is just so much easier to use and efficient as a cream. Just wet your brush in warm water add about a quarters worth of cream and lather right on the face. Wonderful performance that rivals my most expensive shave creams in my den. My first thought when using this Palmolive Classic Shave Cream was why in the world have I been wasting so much money on artisan soaps??? I am going to be ordering more and probably three tubes at time in the future. I could see myself using this cream every shave and never having a complaint ! What great close shaves it gives. It leaves your skin feeling conditioned and you can use any after shave products you want after it without any scent interference. Excellent ! Palmolive has it all covered nice scent, great lather, great cushion, great slickness and residual slick as well as a nice post shave feel. One reviewer said just use this cream lather it up and let it get out of the way of a great shave... That is exactly what it does. It just works great and gets out of the way for the best shave ever.

I love trying new shave products and have been doing so for over 20 microbrand, cheap, expensive. This Palmolive I used back in 2017 and remember it was good. I decided to give it a try again and dollar for dollar, this may be the best product there is. Scent is clean, performance is absolutely top-shelf. Slick enough for 2 passes but cleans off easy. Absolutely give it a shot.

This is my 3rd tube of Palmolive Classic Shave Cream and I must say it's one of the best around, especialy for the price. At a fraction of the cost to competitors and major name brands, Palmolive provides a cushioned shave that leaves skin feeling smooth with a subtle scent. I highly recommend it!

Bought this on a lark along with some extra DE blades. Decided to see how well it would work with 2 or 3 days of beard growth and was pleasantly surprised. A small amount (size somewhere between a nickel and quarter) squeezed into my shaving bowl created enough lather for up to 5 passes or more. It worked just as well for me as my favorite products from Proraso and Barbasol. The tube is larger than I expected, more like a small tube of toothpaste than the sample size that I'd imagined. 👍 I liked the palm extract smell too: Pleasant, NOT overpowering and reminded me of a nice bar of soap. That adds to the overall feeling of being clean that a man should get from his shave. I find it strange that Amazon is asking me how well this product travels. It's too large to be allowed on a plane in a carry-on bag, due to TSA regulations. You'd think that Amazon would have known that... Also, I don't do much traveling by plane these days. I can't really answer that question. Other than that, I can confidently recommend this product to fellow wet shavers. It feels and smells great while also being *quite* effective. 😊🪒

Price is a factor in my rating, for sure. This is the cheapest shaving cream I’ve ever purchased at $3.75. It took 10 days to arrive, but it’s not like I needed it urgently anyways. As a wet shaving hobbyist, I have tons of shaving products from both big companies and small artisans. I haven’t really been buying new products in the past year, and mostly just stick to a handful of simple favorites these days. But I had to snag this at such a low price; even lower than when Nivea shaving cream used to be under $5. Palmolive vastly outperforms Nivea, and is easily on par with the other popular shaving creams like Proraso, Taylor of Old Bond Street, and Musgo Real. You can spend extra money on TOBS if you want more scent variety, maybe Proraso if the price is good and you want some menthol, and Musgo Real is slightly overpriced despite having a slightly superior post shave feel. Palmolive, however, is an excellent happy-medium in terms of scent and performance, while being available at an absolutely ridiculous price. The only cheaper way to shave is with Arko soap. I have yet to try Arko creams, which are absurdly cheap sometimes. Scent is quite subjective, but I find this more agreeable than the old school scents of Proraso and certain Musgo scents, although I do enjoy the fruitier TOBS scents more. It’s a very simple clean and soapy scent, strong enough to enjoy while shaving, but not strong enough to clash with aftershave or cologne that toy may apply afterwards. If you’re not a hobbyist, that means this product is even more geared towards you. Start with the cheapies like Palmolive (at least for now) and Arko. If either of those wins you over, then stock up heavy on it when you find a low price like this. As much as I love my artisan shaving soaps like Stirling, Catie’s Bubbles, and Barrister & Mann... a shaving cream like this is really all you need.

Fascinerande nog är denna lågt prissatta rakkräm en av de bättre jag provat. Det finns ett digert urval i alla priskategorier, och då jag vill undvika aerosolflaskor minskar alternativ som saluförs i vanliga butiker. Summa summarum är att kombinationen säkerhetshyvel med bra blad + denna rakkräm och borste ger en riktigt bra, nära rakning.

Superb

Very good shaving cream very slick but doesn't have good volume but still does a good job when shaving.

Suave y espumosa, para hacer en cuenco, olor muy agradable

I came across the Palmolive cream by chance when walking in the Scottish Islands. After a week without shaving I visited a small general store to buy the kit. The only options were the usual cans of skin drying foam and the little oils, all of which I have used the in the past. They work, but I find they all end up drying or irritating the skin after a while. So I decided to try this cream. In a nutshell it is simple and great. You only need small drop, and it works into a nice lather easily. The shave is a good as you are ever going to get. No particular smell to it as well, which I like. No dry skin, and because it only needs a small amount a tube will last months. I travel a large amount for work, including places where the air that will strip the skin in hours, so I have become very particular in what products I use. After around a year of using this I would not imagine using any other product in the future. It only costs a couple of pounds, so I highly recommend you give it a try. It has stopped me from hating shaving.
