Does anybody have Nivea Shaving "FOAM"?

    I saw Nivea Shaving Foam at a store for a dollar so I couldn't resist. I've shaved with it several times and its horrible.

    It dries up before I can finish one side of my face. Do I have a defective can or is that just how the shaving foam is?

    I thought Nivea was a credible source.

    Nivea used to make a quite good shaving cream in a tube. They still make a great aftershave balm. I've never heard anything good about thier canned foam.

    They STILL (as of September, at least) make a quite good shaving cream in a tube. They just don't distribute it in the US. In Canada, it's widely distributed. I know, that doesn't help most of us. But if you live near the border, and occasionally cross it, you can stock up while you're there.

    Before starting wet shaving (about 3 years ago) this was the foam I was using almost exclusively. Never had any issues with it, in fact it was one of the most irritating free foams I had used (and I have quite a sensitive skin). It does dry out faster compared to a good soap or shaving cream but for sure not any faster than other foams.
