This summer I got a little crazy in the shaving cream aisle and broke out of my norm. I decided to buy Skintimate Flirty Mango shave cream instead of just grabbing the cheapest shaving cream, which is usually a shaving cream for men.
And, so you can appreciate how monumental this is, for many, many years I shaved only with soap, until I realized I could do this shaving cream trick with it to allow me more time in the shower. From then I got crazy and started to see what I had been missing out on all those years.
Then, this summer I decided to branch out and splurge for my 40th birthday in part with some new shaving cream. (I know– I’m really wild.) And I am so glad I did.
I cannot remember the price difference between the Skintimate Flirty Mango and the cheapest men’s shave cream I was typically buying, but I can tell you that this one really does make me smile every single time I shave. And considering how many times uses there are in a can, even a few dollars would be worth it to me. (It had to be less than a few dollars or I wouldn’t have done it.)
So why do I like it?
The fragrance is so fresh and fruity, I almost feel spa-like… okay, maybe not spa-like, but definitely vacation-like. It really does smell great… and the yummy smell makes me happy in the shower. But the fragrance is not over-powering and it doesn’t make me sneeze like a lot of fragrances do. So, to me, it is totally worth it.
My legs are pretty smooth, too, but, to be honest, I slather on moisturizer every time I shower, so I don’t know if it is the shave cream or my moisturizer.
So, since this is my first shaving cream splurge, I’m wondering… Are other shave creams out there as yummy-smelling as this one? If you use a shave cream you love, tell me all about it… And does anyone else out there love this shave cream like I do?
