    Default You can .... Kiss My Face

    Went with the wife to a Shoppers Drug Mart for her to get some cream and she drew my attention to The fact that there was shave cream in the women's cosmetic section. Who would have thought to look there eh? Turns out they had a clearance on Kiss My Face shave soap @ $2.00 a bottle. I need another soap like I need another hole in the head but what the hey for 2 bucks why not.

    Used it this morning face lathering it with a boar brush and got a pleasant surprise, it works quite well. It produced a nice creamy lather that was slick and aided in getting a BBS shave. It won't replace my Tabac or MWF but it will stay in my shave soap/cream rotation for sure.

    Kiss My Face shave soaps only seem to get mentioned in passing here and that is a shame as it is more than usable plus it is generally a locally available product. I think they should market a version for the male consumers, get rid of the pump bottle and put it in a tube with some funky old timey packaging and maybe change the name to something like Kiss My Hinney.

    Anyway, I think you can safely put Kiss My Face on your options list for shave soaps/creams that work.

    I shaved with it yesterday, I think it is a good widely available product. It produces a thick, creamy, slick lather almost effortlessly.
    That being said I seldom use it, as I prefer soaps, and when I am in a cream mood I have others I like more.

    Thanks Bob - I've seen it around but haven't got around to trying it yet. I will now.

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

    I haven't seen it locally but I did order out for some a while back and quite enjoy it. Even when not on clearance, it's quite the value. It's a whole lot of cream for under $10.

    Purchased the cool mint and lavender shae creams along with some body wash and shampoo from Kiss My Face. The cool mint is a little less cooling than proraso , and smells like fresh mint, nice and clean. Lavender also smells wonderful. The creams go a long way also, one squirt into the brush and i had enough for 3 solid lathers and the brush was still full or simply use your hands. Shoppers Drug Mart still hsas the clearance on at the moment (4$ on my end of town ). I really like the squirt bottle idea as it keeps my hands clean and allows for exact measurements. I'm pretty sure their products are ogranic also, so good healthy ingredients give me peace of mind.

    Very good stuff in my book, as is the moisturizer. Whole Foods is a source. The shave cream is first rate. I use it and Trumper...

    Thanks for the tip. I've seen it around, will try it.
