Since it's been so cloudy, dreary and rainy here since Sunday, I haven't been able to get any new product photos done as they all turn out too dark and off. So I'm pulling out the last of my Montana photos I took before I left. So I'll work on these reviews and swatches until I get some sunshine here!
When I found out my beloved Billy Jealousy Hydroplane Shave Cream had an ingredient that had been associated with cancer, I gave it up and started the search for a new shave cream. I love the texture of the Hydroplane, it doesn't have that rubbery soapy feel after it's washed off which I hate. I tried a Paula's Choice one, it was OK but had the same rubbery feel. I thought I would try Omorovicza next. Omorovicza Soothing Shave is $30 for 5.1 fl oz. It's a pricey shave cream.
The main ingredients are Hungarian thermal water, squalane, coconut triglycerides, apricot kernel oil, Hungarian thermal water ferment extract, Â mango pulp extract, plum seed extract, yellow mombin pulp extract, a droll fruit extract, banana pulp extract, vitamin E, apple fruit extract, orange flower water, sea mayweed extract, algae/white lupin ferment, pectin, phospholipids and yeast extract. It also has camphor and menthol so it has a slight cooling sensation.
That's a lot of good ingredients for a shave cream. I suppose it would be better at that price point if you used it on your face, not your legs like I did. It's a medium weight cream that doesn't foam in the shower, it waters down well, but doesn't foam. It does leave a slight rubbery feel after washing off which is minor, but that in combination with the price I wouldn't buy again but it was worth trying. The search for a new shave cream continues...
