Every Man Jack Fragrance Free Shave Cream
Every Man Jack Fragrance Free Shave Cream Ingredients List
Overall Rating: ★★★★★
Price: $ (under $10) – Available at Target, Every Man Jack, Drugstore.com, and Walgreens.com.
Scent: Fragrance free.
I Liked: the thick consistency, which made for a smooth, comfortable shave. The unscented cream is especially ideal for those with sensitive skin. Paraben-free, SLS-free, and not tested on animals.
Not a fan of: nothing. However, please note that this is a low-foaming shave cream – it does not lather up well with a shave brush.
Every Man Jack’s Fragrance Free Shave Cream is an effective, no frills shaving product with a conscience. It’s fragrance free and doesn’t contain a lot of the unnecessary synthetic ingredients that can irritate sensitive skin. The cream’s thick texture allows for a close, comfortable shave. This shave cream is low-lathering, which is a good thing. Chances are that if you’re using a cream that lathers up well, it’s probably drying up your skin. At under ten dollars, Every Man Jack Fragrance Free is one of the best shave cream values available.

American Crew Post-Shave Cooling Lotion
American Crew Post-Shave Cooling Lotion Ingredients List
Overall Rating: ★★★★☆
Price: $$ ($10-$20) – Available at Drugstore.com and Amazon.
Scent: Slight hint of tea tree.
I Like: the light texture and mild cooling sensation.
Not a fan of: the paraben preservatives.
American Crew’s Post-Shave Cooling Lotion is a versatile, lightweight after shave balm that also acts as an all-purpose face moisturizer. The tea tree oil in the lotion helps soothe and disinfect, thus minimizing post-shave irritation. I recommend this product to those with normal to oily skin. Unless applied constantly throughout the day, this light lotion may not sufficiently moisturize dry skin.

All-Natural Moisturizer: Burt's Bees Natural Skin Care for Men Aftershave
Burt's Bees Natural Skin Care for Men Aftershave Ingredients List
Overall Rating: ★★★★★
Price: $ (under $10) – Available at Burt’s Bees, Drugstore.com, and CVS.
Scent: Mildly masculine blend of bergamot, orange, patchouli, fir, and rosemary.
I like: the lotion’s gentleness, light consistency, all natural ingredients, mild scent, and versatility – it works as an aftershave/moisturizer. Not tested on animals.
Not a fan of: nothing.
Burt’s Bees Natural Skin Care for Men Aftershave works well on practically any skin type. Just because the packaging says “aftershave” doesn’t mean you can’t use it as an everyday moisturizer – it’s versatile, though you’ll need to apply a facial sunscreen with this product if you’re going out during the day . Because the lotion is 100% natural, it is ideal for those with sensitive skin who tend to breakout when using products with synthetic fragrances. The subtle, naturally masculine scent is just right – it’s a blend of bergamot, lemon, orange, patchouli, fir, and rosemary. If you’ve been using synthetic or alcohol-based aftershaves, now is the time for you to transition to more natural alternatives. Start by trying this great moisturizer.

King Of Shaves Alphagel Shave Gel Sensitive Skin
King Of Shaves Alphagel Shave Gel Sensitive Skin Ingredients List
Overall Rating: ★★★★☆
Price: $ (under $10) – Available at Target, Remington, and King of Shaves Direct.
Scent: Cool blend of tea tree oil, spearmint, and camphor.
I Like: the gel’s cooling effect. It’s an excellent value. Not animal tested. Made in the UK.
Not a fan of: the sodium laureth sulfate.
Not long ago, I was still using shave gel in a can. I thought the thick foam from canned shave gels and creams made for superior, less-irritating shaves. I was wrong. Most canned shaving products contain synthetic ingredients that can actually dry out and irritate sensitive skin. For those of you with sensitive skin still searching for a reasonably priced shave gel in a tube, may I suggest trying King of Shaves Alphagel Shave Gel. It contains aloe vera and tea tree oil to help soothe your skin. The gel’s translucence eliminates the guesswork in shaving – you see exactly where your blade is touching your skin. The energizing blend of spearmint and camphor cools and helps to wake you up in the morning. It has a medicinal, but tolerable scent – I actually like it. Try using this shave gel if you’re on a budget and have sensitive skin.
