Pretty decent shaving oil. I've found it useful for when travelling - light and small. Works best after you've showered.
I've tried other shaving oils but found them to be quite greasy compared to this one. At $250 per 1l it's more expensive than champagne. But I've found the small bottles last quite a while, maybe not quite the 75 shaves it claims but it's decent enough.
What's this for?
It's for shaving, like shaving cream/gel. It's slicker and takes up less space when travelling.
I use electric and mine aren't thick at all. I do feel the burn sometimes after shave but not always. Any point of getting this?
Mmm, I've never tried it with an electric shaver. King of Shaves recommends wet shaving instead, but if you want to stick to electric, they suggest a few drops of oil first.
This stuff is pretty good, I like to use it under shaving cream. Too much lubrication is rarely a bad thing. Don't need much, lasts ages.
i just brush on the shave lather with a brush and shave …..soap / lather is a lubricant .
So how does this compare to shaving gel? I find even shaving cream causes razor burn for me.
I miss the old disposable bottles they had. I've been using this new refillable one for maybe a year now and it has recently developed a rancid smell. Turns out at least in my bottle, oil accumulates in the gap under the head and gunks up. I had to scoop it out to clean it. The oil still smells off though, maybe there's some old oil remaining as I refill it before it goes empty.
The old bottles take up less room too.
