    well...if your looking for slickness..creames win...but if you're on a budget and want what works go with the canned stuff as many of our gents use em..for me..canned goo is too thick..creames tend to lather thinner ;-)..OR buy a sample of each n compare! :p

    Cream

    Cream, that is what this is all about..getting away from cheap ineffective canned goo.

    If it's too much trouble to check out the TSD store... then burn some gas and head over to Rite-Aid if you must. Look high and spot the Noxzema red can and then look lower and spot the Real Shave Company tubed creams - as much as I like the legacy Noxzema shaving products - select one of the RSC creams and be on your way. (Though you can also use the Noxzema goo just as a pre-shave beard treatment if you don't want to rely on it for the entire shave.)

    Hi,
    I live in Turkey. I used a Nivea shaving cream but to me it is not better than an Arko shaving foam with lavender oil. I get a burn feeling with Nivea and with Arko it takes too much time to shave...

    I also have Arko Shave Stick it's the worst of the three.

    Btw I paid Nivea shaving cream $2.5 and Arko stick $0.5 in the local store. It seems they're 4 folds expensive outside Turkey..

    Both. I haven't decided between the two and have gone back and forth. I really like menthol blast, so right now I'm enjoying a TSD sample SubZero shaving soap usually with a dash of CO Begelow shave cream.

    I love the Arko shave sticks. I think they are fantastic! :)

    Shaving cream is a million times better than the canned foam. The canned foam, particularly the goo-in-a-can, is darned expensive, too. Why pay a lot of money to get a second-rate shave when a great shave costs a lot less?

    I came across Derby shaving cream with lavender oil and it's good.

    The canned stuff is good for keeping steam off mirrors I hear, good for some practical jokes as well but thats about it in my opinion. The nice scents do it for me. Try and find a sandal wood scent can of shave goo or any other nice smell.

    I do hear good things about the canned Aveeno Therapeutic Shaving Gel.

    But I rather enjoy using my collection of wet-shaving creams and soaps.

    Soap at home and cream on the road, no more foam.
