I've been using various brands of shaving gel for more than 40 years. They all have given me better shaves than aerosol foam or big-name chemical goop. I first tried Elegance several years ago and set it aside because it was starkly different from its competitors. This stuff is very viscous (thick) to a point where it requires a bit more prep in application and rinsing. Running out of my "regukar" gel led me to use my set-aside Elegance for a few days. After a few days, I realized that its differences were all vert positive, This stuff gives a close, smooth shave with no irritation, It's menthol is strong and cooling. Yeh, it's a bit more work rinsing your rzor and your face, but it's worth it. It's also, when bought in the large container, about the least expensive gel shave availble. Read more
Best shave gel for straight razors , all my clients love this when being shaved with it . The pump helps measure out the amounts needed for edge up, brows , mustache and beard . I use my finger like a pencil to spread a line around edges and it works wonderfully . I recommend this one and the blue aquatic (blue smells Amazing) . Found this is at the best price too it is not cheap at barbers stores locally , amazon for the win ! Read more
I really like this product. It helps make smooth shaves, and is transparent. The store brands are not transparent. Looked it up on Amazon when I was running low on shaving gel, and found this. It will last a long time. For the price is great for me. I was tired of the store brands gel, and got something better this time. I will buy this again, unless there is something better on Amazon.

Best shave gel I’ve ever used. It doesn’t lather as much as other shave gels but don’t let that fool you - it gives a very smooth shave. I read the reviews here so I added water to my face as I was shaving to keep the gel lubricated. Coincidentally I was at my barber shop last week and my barber had this on his counter and raved about it. I agree. Read more
The first time I ordered the Jupiter scent SHAVE GEL, I was sent the AFTERSHAVE GEL. I was sent something that says Jupiter, Gel, and AFTERSHAVE. None of the pictures in the ad at that time matched what I received. There is a Jupiter SHAVE GEL (what I ordered), but nothing that says AFTERSHAVE (which is what I got the first time). The second time I ordered the exact same item, I did get the SHAVE GEL. Now I know for sure the first one is indeed AFTERSHAVE GEL. The SHAVE GEL is much better. It's very thick and has almost an industrial smell. It doesn't smell like the Aftershave Gel at all. It's good but I still prefer K of S because it's slightly thinner and minty fresh. This stuff is much more fairly priced though. The Aftershave Gel I got the first time I ordered the Shaving Gel is terrible. It's just like hand sanitizer. It's not slippery at all - nothing at all like King of Shaves SHAVING GEL or Edge or any other SHAVING GEL that I've tried. I'm pretty sure they incorrectly sent what is purely meant to be an after-shave product but I really have no idea because the labeling doesn't match anything shown in the ad. The pump is nice once you finally get it unlocked. The Shaving Gel pump unlocked very easily and normally, so I think the first one I was sent (Aftershave Gel) was slightly defective. The Jupiter Aftershave Gel smells good. I just wish it were actually SHAVING GEL. You know, like I ordered the first time. Too bad the Jupiter Shaving Gel doesn't smell the same as the Jupiter Aftershave Gel. Read more
First time I used this gel I thought(like some other reviewers) this stuff is way too thick and gooey, so I set it aside and figured I would just give it away since it wasn’t that expensive…….$8.99 when I purchased this fairly large bottle. A couple weeks later on a whim I wanted to try it again for some reason and I’m really glad I did. This is the stuff professional barbers/hair stylists use for straight shaves and fancy razor hair cuts so that should tell you something. This gel is extremely concentrated, literally cover a finger tip with it(a small coins worth)and it’s enough to do your entire face! You just need to keep adding water to the area you are shaving until you get it to your desired consistency. For the people with extremely sensitive skin this is probably the best protection from the blade you will ever find. I use a Henson safety razor(haven’t tried a multi bladed cart yet) and could literally shave everyday with minimal to no irritation with this gel. I’ve always had to wait a few days to shave again because my face would get so torn up, but not with this stuff. I see the price fluctuates with this stuff like most things on Amazon and even at $20 a bottle this stuff is still worth it since this bottle will last well over a year for most and probably several years for some. Aftershave is optional since this stuff leaves your face nicely moisturized after rinsing it off. Read more
