Thread: The Body Shop Shaving Creams.

Went too the local mall this week and stopped by at The Body Shop to see if they had any shaving soaps or creams for shaving. They seem too have some I was wondering if anyone has picked up a sample of their shaving creams/soaps and tried them?

Are you referring to the Macca Root shaving cream they sell?

I have used the Macca Root and felt it performed well. It was especially easy to lather.

The Maca Root is great stuff. Didn't you get a free sample to try?

Yeah they had Macca Root in a jar and I think another in a tube forgot to ask if they had free samples maybe tomorrow I will stop by and pick up a sample.

Maca Root + MWF + 5 drops Glycerin + anything else you want to add (optional) = one hell of an Uber Lather.

Picked up a sample of Maca Root and it smells grassy almost like wild flowers that you find in a meadow walking threw the country. If the smell is any precursor I have a feeling that I will have a great shave will let you know how it shaved.

The Maca Root works well, but the scent takes some getting used to.

I like the macca root cream - they also make a post shave cream in the same range which is also good (Should you not mind the smell).

I have used the macca root cream, easy to use and preformed well, however it's the only product that after my final rinse I felt some discomfort and irritation. Like I was sitting in front of a campfire.

Some people do have reactions to various different soaps/creams. MWF is mentioned quite a bit in that regard and presumably it is a reaction to the lanolin content. Unfortunately you just don't know till you actually try a soap if you are lucky or not.
