EOS Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream




NICE & SMOOTH BUT...
PROS: Smell & smooth finish
CONS: Price & wasteful 
QUICK TIPS: May need to apply more than what is recommended.








Needing to pick up shaving cream I expected to go and pick up my usual brand but I noticed this EOS Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream (Pomegranate Raspberry) was marked down so I thought I'd give it a try.

EOS shave cream claims to " delight your skin with 24 hours of ultra-soothing moisture.  With natural conditioning oils, shea butter and aloe, it's so moisturizing you can shave wet or dry.  Nourish your skin every time you shave with eos.".

I found it did l leave my skin feeling nice and smooth after shaving but for staying smooth for 24 hours, I don't think so.  Also it says to pump 2 - 3 times to apply a thin layer.  This definitely wasn't enough.  You don't get much of a lather with this product and I would be to hesitant to try to shave with that thin of a layer of shaving cream.  I don't want cuts all over, thank you very much..  With that said I also never tried it without water.  Again probably not going to give that a go, just for the sake of not wanting cuts.

One other good thing about this is the smell along with the smooth finish I mention earlier.  It's definitely a berry fragrance.

Problems I found with this are:

1.  It will take more than 2 - 3 pumps to feel like you have a good enough lather

2.  I bought this while it was marked down, that's the only reason I really picked it up.  If it was regular price (pricey) I would of skipped it

3.  The bottom design of the bottle is unique and fits your hand nicely but the top part where it's the actually pump, I didn't like this.  Could of just made it like regular shaving cream cans/bottles (if that would of work), so you can spray it out instead of pumping.

If this product was amazing I would go out and buy it at regular price but it's sadly not so I probably won't be purchasing this again.

Giving the EOS Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream a C, basically for the smoothness & for the smell.
