Budget Creams

Keeping in mind the term "budget cream" will be a relative term here, what are some of your favorite budget creams? Mine so far is Godrej Deluxe.

For around $2.00 per tube, Godrej is a mighty fine value. Arko can be found sometimes for $1.00 per tube and performs nicely.

TSD Wheat cream is aggressively priced at $9.00 and is a great cream worthy of anyone's shave den.

For value in terms of the small amount of cream needed to produce lot's of lather, TOBS can be found at $12.00 and is a solid performer as well.

My Woman likes Erasmic. I never had a chance to try the original version, but the reformulated version at $7.00 is worth mention.

 

I second KMF...a small amount goes a LONG way.

 

There are lots of budget creams. Many of them cost very little over seas. Its not until they hit the US market that they sometimes get a nice mark up.

I recommend Arko Shave Cream about 3 bucks. I did post a thread where there is a site that sells it for 1.60.

Erasmic Shave cream is another good one. less than 4 dollars from westcoast.

 

The Real Shave Company and Kiss My Face are favorite creams at a cheap price.

 

Havent Tried KMF but The Real Shave Company is one I had forgotten. Thumbs Up on that one. 5 bucks at RiteAid.

 

Dalan d'men is pretty good stuff too. I love the smell, but then again, I like everything that has mentioned so far except Erasmic and only because I haven't tried it yet.

:love008 Erasmic is awesome! I have only tried the cream, I've not tried the soap. The cream actually moisturizes my legs, where most creams do not.

+1 on the KMF mention, while I don't utilize it as my main cream any longer, it will rescue a lather right quick.

 

Did we do something wrong here in Florida to not have any of this Real Shaving Cream available for us?

 

I know! Right?!? CVS bought up Rite Aid and still no Real Shaving Co!

 

Same situation here in Alabama. Can't find RSC products anywhere. Had to order mine online. :mad:

 

VDH also try a quality shave soap called VDH :love055

 

Kiss My Face Creams are great and RazoRock Cream is even better...but my very favorite budget cream is HeadSlick by HeadBlade with it's super slick and protective lather. It's very affordable and can be found easily at Walgreens Pharmacy, Rite Aid, Sally's Beauty Supply, etc.

 

How could I forget RazorRock. that's the best bang for the Buck in my book
I have so many I forget.

 

*1, it also has a nice menthol kick.

 

Ill jump in say poraso and spieck.

 

Here in Montreal, Proraso Green cream and soap are available, although I despise them with a passion. I love the Proraso White bowl soap, and another excellent budget cream is Nivea. The Proraso stuff is not really expensive--only around 7,50-8,50 CDN in our pharmacies and supermarkets, and the Nivea is around 3,99-4,25 CDN, depending on where you go. Oh, if you want to find a fantastic CHEAP, CHEAP cream, Gada Cool Mint is 1,50-2,00 CDN.
