Thread: Tried a new cream today

today i tried a new cream, the first other one it tried since starting to shave with a straight. The main reason for not trying a different cream was that i have a hard time finding quality creams in my area, and i like being able to walk into a brick and motar store to make my purchases. just to support my local economy.

today i used "the body shops" maca root shave cream, and was very impressed with the way it preformed. it started out kinda hard and lumpy but with a few drops of warm water it smoothed right out, i have hard water and i find that the lather i was building with the other cream would tend to dry out and fade a little(if that makes sense). i found my razor glide improved from the other cream, also the feel was better. i also tried proraso pre-sheave cream, so i will have to try with out the pre shave because in my opinion it not a fair test, but i was really impressed with it. now my question is does anyone else find a new product to be better than the last one used, mainly because it's different than the last and it feels different and it is not what your used to?
