Do you guys have any other brand/products to recommend? Is there any shaving cream that will allow the razor to "glide" more on the skin than the two I have already tried?
As someone with very dry skin, it soon became apparent to me that alcohol based aftershaves are out for me. Since discovering Nivea's very good Sensitive After Shave Balm (the one with 0% alcohol on the front - NOT the "cooling" one) and paired with a glycerin-based cream or soap, my face has never looked or felt better. I use Nivea mild shaving cream now (lathered with a brush) as it works really well for me but have also got great shaves from the respectable Palmolive shave stick. There are many things out there that do a better job than the current stuff sold by Gillette in my opinion and experience.
