Hi Gents.

I've recently been using cartridge razors quite a lot for reviews on the YouTube channel. This has led to testing out shaving gels, which a lot of guys like to use with multi-blade razors.

I hadn't used transparent shave gels for a while, but I loved them many a year ago with a Mach3. So, it's a bit of a revisit for me.

The Three Shave Gels Reviewed --

• ​Bulldog Original Shave Gel​
• ​American Crew Shave Gel​
• ​King C Gillette Shave Gel​

​

1. BullDog

​

BullDog has won me over so far, and I am on the fourth brand of gels. I am testing another (Bump Control) and will have that live on the web soon.

A tube of Bulldog Original Shave Gel comes as cheap as a decent shave gel can get. I found it pleasant to shave with, and it helped make shaving with a cartridge razor easy and comfortable (what more could you need?).

2. American Crew

​

American Crew was actually better than the Bulldog in many ways.

American Crew Shave Gel is pricier than many others. However, I do feel like a smaller amount goes a long way. While it does what it needs–in terms of providing glide and preventing irritation–that PVA glue scent was not pleasant.

If the scent were pleasant, this would have been number 1 so far.

3. King C Gillette Shave Gel

​

King C Gillette has a great scent. Switching the scent to the American Crew would be perfect.

The shave gel from King C Gillette has a good ingredient profile, and the scent is refreshing and will last after the shave. The main negative was it seemed to dry out and become thinner than others I have used recently.

Others Experience These Differently

As always, these are my experiences and things like scents can be subjective. I will be trying more gels, including this quite different Bump Control (review will be live soon) stuff I have.

It is always fun to review this stuff, and if it helps one of you guys find the right product, then that's even better.

Until next time......
