Incredible performance, incredible value
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.

Great Shaving Cream! I am, going to leave a bunch of artisan Shave Soaps behind
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.

Damn great stuff
All the 5 star reviews are true - this stuff is magic. Really. It is.I’ve indulged crazy expensive shaving soaps, creams, foams from all over the globe - this stuff is all their equals. For $7. It cant be improved - just like an 80 year old safety razor. Trust me.Squeeze a little in a bowl, whip with a brush, it explodes into a super creamy lather.The shaving industry is a huge scam. All you need is a $20 DE safety razor and this stuff - forever. Thats it. You wont ever lack for a great shave.

Great product, easy to use, but slow delivery to the US
I first used this product when visiting Europe and brought a couple tubes home in my suitcase. When those were gone, I tried to find a local source, then decided to purchase them online through Amazon.It's the same quality I enjoyed in Germany, but the source I got it from was a company in the UK and shipping took weeks, not days. I recommend buying a couple so you don't have to wait.As far as the product goes, I like the fresh scent, it provides a smooth shave, and lathers up much better than many of the drugstore cream shaves available in the US (like Cremo or Edge, which gum up my safety razor). It's easy to use, and I always choose it in the morning when I don't want to spend as much time creating a soap lather in my shaving mug.

Surprisingly good...
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. 😊🪒

Goes on thick, rinces clean.
I have tried many other shaving creams, and all of them were on a spectrum of "meh". This one is a step above, and that is why I order it again and again. It comes out and provides a close shave every time without too much burn. The Palm oil is what the secret to this creme is...it goes on and really grabs the whiskers and washes off without residue.

Very slick, lathers easily
Smells exactly like the dish soap (not a bad thing). Lathers really well. Probably the most slick/slippery shave soap I've ever used. I keep it in my regular rotation.

Absolutely excellent, but not at the new price
This shaving cream is designed for use with a shaving brush and a double edge razor. It makes a large and long-lasting head of foam that makes for a wonderful shave. It’s also very concentrated and a small amount is all you need for each shave. It’s an absolutely excellent product.Update 8/6/24: When I bought this shaving soap 2 months ago it cost $6. It now costs $9.25, a 50% increase. I guess that’s how capitalism works, but I don’t like price gouging. I’ve taken 2 stars off my original review and in future will try different premium shaving soaps in the $9 -$10 range. There are plenty out there.
