Thread: top 10 list of shaving cream

I have tried a good handful of shaving creams, and they are all good for different reasons; however, the best all around performer was Nancy Boy Signature Shaving Cream. I picked up a tub from their San Fransicso store, you can order it from them online. Hard to explain with words, but it is top notch stuff. Best glide and cushion I have experienced, and I love the scent. I also use two differnent scented AOS creams, which are also top notch and the scents are amazing, Truefitt & Hill, which is good, C.O. Bigelow cream, which is actually Proraso, and is also very good, Spencer & Devon Sagebrush, which is great both in performance and scent. Good luck!

I really like the razor rock croaps: xxx, fresco, mentolipto, and cheech ob & jasmin. They are lightly fragranced, make lots of lather, and slick! Erasmic from westcoastshaving.com, pre de provence, speik, olimon (one of my favorite scents)

Best of luck!

I agree. I think my E-Shave lime smells better and lathers nicer.

Generally I'm predominantly a soap guy so my experience with creams is pretty limited. That said, with regard to creams I'd definitely give the nod to TOBS Eton College, great smell, nice lather, reasonable price and a tub will last forever.

Today my wife and i where shopping,then we see the new bodyshop in town.
A quicklook i and buy a tube macra root (dont now this the right name) smell is good and the test lather suprised me.
Handy in the travelbox

I'd love to go shopping in Amsterdam.

I think yes. Wat else can you buy, that and lots of Beer in the pubs. Ohhh and windmills.;-)

Some here that come up frequently -- some not so much. For me:

Castle Forbes
Cella (OK...not really a cream)
Proraso Red
Geo F Trumper coconut

Based on performance my favorite creams are:

Proraso (green tube)
Art of shaving (Lemon)
Musgo Real
