Researching shave creams, I've heard people fondly recommend Proraso. Upon further investigation, I found C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream is private labelled by Proraso for C.O. Bigelow. Some suggest C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream is actually Proraso Red with the scent of Proraso Green. Being about the same price, I decided to purchase the C.O. Bigelow. Placing a small dollop into my shaving bowl, I was perturbed with how little lather I managed to stir up with my shave brush. However, upon applying to my face, a slick & slightly foamy lather was achieved. In no way was it foamy as the typical Barbasol, but enough for a comfortable shave. My face felt invigorated as I effortlessly glided my razor around my face. Feeling clean & fresh, I was impressed with the quality of my shave. Shaving has now become a ritual meditation, instead of a chore. The C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream is a great shaving product, which I plan to continue purchasing, perhaps possibly giving Proraso products a try to compare. Inexpensive, yet quality, I highly recommend purchasing C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream Read more
Was looking for something to help me not have razor burn and lessen the red bumps I get after shaving. This works great. It is a thicker cream but doesn’t have a weird residue after use. The smell is clean and subtle. Creates a rich lather and helps to get a close shave. Skin feels smooth and moisturized after use. I’ll keep using this cream. Read more
Premium lather buildup within minutes. Very clean shave, with eucalyptus leaving a ‘cold’ sensation. I am never using other shaving foam/cream/gel, neither I use any face wash afterwards. Ample quantity. Just take about an inch worth and it will do the magic. I can’t believe I never came across this in decades! Just remember to take your time so the cream exfoliates for a super smooth/clean shave! Read more
Nice product! Cream applies easily, is not foamy or greasy, and provides a slippery surface for the razor. I like the fragrant eucalyptus. Have purchased numerous times. Read more
Smells great and nice and creaming shaving cream for men. Great for men with sensitive skin! I put this in my husband's stocking and he's been using it and thinks it's a great product! Read more
Great shaving cream. It really leaves your face feeling fresh. I even ordered one for a friend who was using another brand, and he liked it too. Still, you have to be careful while squeezing the tube because the cream will spurt out. Other than that, for now I don’t see myself using a different brand: it feels and smells real good to the point of making it unnecessary to use an aftershave lotion. Also, contrary to other opinions, this cream does foam: Just wet your face before applying and you’ll see! Read more
