What it is
Cremo French Lavender Shave Cream is a concentrated shave cream with a lavender scent. Cremo sells it in its women’s range, but the formula is a standard Cremo concentrated shave cream and works on any skin you shave.
Key ingredients
- Macadamia seed oil: A conditioning oil near the top of the list.
- Aloe leaf juice and allantoin: Soothing ingredients.
- Calendula, lemon, papaya and olive leaf extracts: A botanical blend on the label.
How to use
Splash your face with water for about 30 seconds. Squeeze out an almond-sized amount and spread a thin coat over wet skin; it doesn’t need to lather. Shave with any blade, adding a little water if the cream starts to feel tacky.
Who should be careful
The label lists fragrance. Even though the scent is lavender, the recorded list shows fragrance rather than lavender oil. Skip it if scented products irritate your skin.
What the brand claims
Cremo says it gives a close, comfortable shave without the burn and leaves skin smooth. The page gives no clinical figures.
