Review on 🌊 Experience Luxury with VIKINGS BLADE Black Ocean: Foaming Shaving Cream, Surfactant-based by Shawna Adams

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Difficult to use, low odor

This cream is difficult to use: the instructions say to mix the cream with some water, but there is no indication of the correct water to cream ratio, so You have to try to figure it out error. It's hard to tell when you've got it right because it's not clear what the consistency should be. It was easy to tell when the water was low as it was creamy and took a long time to evaporate on my skin, but anything below creamy seems to have a watery, sudsy texture that feels very unsatisfactory , as if it could be impossible, that's how it is and should look if the ratio of water and cream is right. However, anything with more cream is obviously too creamy, and anything with less cream is worse, so I think I got it right in the end, it just doesn't inspire much confidence. The smell is incredibly mild and almost non-existent. I really wish it was stronger because the first time you sniff it, when you can actually smell it, it smells really good. The container has a raised bottom and doesn't hold as much cream as the box suggests. not impressed with the lubrication. I don't feel like it lubricates the skin properly. When I start shaving I feel like it's not enough, but when I touch my neck I feel like there's actually too much lube and it interferes with the finishing touches needed for a shave is. shave really well. It seems no matter how hard I try, I just can't get rid of those last streaks of bumpiness. I end up using my razor more aggressively and getting even more razor burn than with other creams.

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • Too long to wait
