I was going to buy a tube of T&H cream, but after using RSC, I find there's no need unless I decide I just can't live without one of the T&H scents.

Interesting, I had a lot of problems getting the water correctly. I got a tube from another member, it was used, I don't think it's dried up or in poor shape though. It wasn't as much that I "could not" lather the cream as much as the fact that I have so many creams that are so much easier....

(I have hard water but guess that doesn't matter much. I have been able to lather everything I've wanted to though so maybe it's not that bad).

FWIW, I've picked up 150 ml tubes of Real Shaving Cream at RiteAid Drugs for less than $5 each on special (and with the use of RiteAid's Discount Card.)

Damn nice cream.

Kirk's Original Coco Castile Bar Soap does it for me.
- Hypoallergenic
- No Synthetic Detergents
- Low cost
- Good, simple manly clean scent
- All natural
- Easy on the skin
The blade just glides on this stuff. The bar lasts forever, too. I understand they make a liquid soap, which I haven't tried.

+1 for the KMF. Mint, especially, is cooling in the summer months, and I'd go so far as to call it a great paraben-and-SLS-free Proraso alternative. YMMV, however, but it's definitely worth a try if you're into cooling sensations.

I just ordered a product I want to use when I travel: it's Pro Shave Cream with Lanolin and Vit. E. I've never tried it, but I figure for traveling it means I won't have to bring a brush and soap with me. I really like my shave gear and try to keep the good 'stuff' at home. I'll see how this works; I'll test it when it comes in next week. Found the product on Amazon but had never heard of Pro Shave Cream.

I'm all about some Erasmic.

Have some. Will try it.

Musgo Real, I just tried it for the first time and WHAT a cream! Simply stunning, both performance, lather and scent (Forget that it is a bit over $10)

**auk1124** · 07-23-2012, 03:20 PM

I don't recall SLS content but I have used and enjoyed Arko, Dalan, and German Nivea. Another good one that I THINK was about ten bucks on sale was Pacific Shaving Company.

**GMofmiami** · 07-23-2012, 04:31 PM

Arko S/C
Proraso
Palmolive
Godrej

**winston61** · 07-28-2012, 07:18 PM

KMF, Arko, Derby

**Acmemfg** · 07-29-2012, 05:11 PM

Arko and Derby are both superb creams at a dirt cheap price. Do not know about their chemical make up though

**jkingrph** · 08-07-2012, 03:50 PM

Arko, Dalan d'men, Musgo Real, Prosaro, First two can be had for less than $3.00 for a 100gm tube.

**Brewshooter** · 08-07-2012, 04:10 PM

I'm still pretty new to all of this, but my wife picked me up a tube of the KMF at Whole Foods on Sunday. I used it last night and was really impressed by it.

I have Speick and I think it's a wonderful cream and I think I paid around $6.00 for it if I remember correctly. How do you gents feel about products like Old Spice or Palmolive cream? What other creams do you think fit the bill?

Im not sure about sls but abay has tobs lemon lime for around 8 bucks including shipping great deal
