Can I please get some feedback?

I am considering purchasing the kit:

and would like to know how effective it is in terms of soothing/moisturizing?

Any feedback would be much appreciated

I won some T&H Ultimate Comfort ASB in the B&B contest a while back and I thought it was quite nice. Not too thick, not too thin and it did a pretty good job of soothing and moisturizing my face after the shave.

For someone that has very dry skin and shaving irritation problems do you think it would be a smart choice?

If your skin is very dry I would recommend the CAR hydrolast skin conditioner. I have tried a sample of the UC aftershave and wasn't that impressed with it.

Thanks you guys for the input frankly I did not think it was going to be anything good... Looking on the T&H site they provide such little information for the products they produce

I got a sample of their T&H 1805 that was so terrible so if that was an indicator of quality I was turned off to be frank

Jack what is the website for the CAR thing you are suggesting..I cant find it on google

Cam05,

Sorry that I don't know how else to address you, but if you want to evaluate the product for yourself, I'd be more than happy to send you a sample. Just PM me your address. I use the product myself, as well as have many customers who swear by it. But it's like any other product, some like it, some don't.

I do like the T&H UC balm (though, I found the cream to be only OK - certainly not nearly as good as their other creams) and would suggest that you try it. It isn't a heavy balm but I find it to be very nice and moisturizing enough for me... but as we know, YMMV.

I don't know where you are located, but I know that T&H will send you samples if you contact them and if you mention that you are curious about the UC line they may send samples of the UC balm and cream (they did when I requested samples about 5 or 6 months ago)

T&H is a high quality manufacturer. They really don't produce anything that is "bad". However, personally, I don't like the balm as I find it too heavy for me. I have oily skin and it's just too much.

Just to post my experience, I have quite sensative skin and it burned me something awful. Ymmv :frown:

You may have a sensitivity to parabens. The Ultimate Comfort AS Balm contains both methylparaben and propylparaben. Parabens are the most commonly used preservatives in cosmetics, skin care products, and medications.

I don't find the Ultimate Comfort product particularly good, especially for the price.

So far I've tried T&H Ultimate Comfort, Baxter ASB, Code Blue and Aol Lavender and Sandalwood. I find T&H Ultimate comfort very soothing, I just love the way it makes my skin feel after shaving. It's tied with Baxter ASB as my favourite aftershave.
