First try of the Sephora Shaving cream this morning. First impression when I squeeze the cream out of the tube. It is slightly more fluid than other creams I have use so far, so quite easy to squeeze out. Not much scent, just a very slight milk like scent. Seems need a bit more water to create the lather but the lather looks very creamy and the bubbles are really microscopic. Sort of reminds me of the icing on cakes.

On application, the lather is really very smooth and creamy. Not much scent again, maybe it is formulated to be suitable for sensitive skin. The blade glides over the skin very well with the lather providing lots of protection and cushioning. Can feel the slickness when washing off and leaves the skin feeling pretty moisturized after the shave.

Overall, very satisfied with this cream. Good protection, moisturization while also providing a good glide for the blade. Also no irritation at all even for my pretty sensitive skin. Very happy with it.:001_smile:001_smile
