Product Type: Shaving cream, designed to be lathered with water.
Size: The 30g size is small and portable, making it ideal for travel, gym bags, or for trying the product out before committing to a larger tube.
Formulation: The cream is designed to create a rich, creamy, and thick lather. This lather helps to soften facial hair and provides a protective layer between the razor and the skin, which helps the blade glidesmoothly and reduces the risk of nicks, cuts, and irritation.
Variants: While "Regular" is a common variant, Gillette also offers this size in different formulations, such as "Lime" or "Menthol," which provide a different scent and shaving experience.
Usage: You typically apply a small amount of the cream to your wet face, and then use your hands or a shaving brush to work it into a rich lather before shaving.
Key Ingredients: While the exact ingredients can vary by variant, common ingredients in Gillette shaving creams include water, fatty acids (like palmitic acid and stearic acid), and a base to create the lather (like triethanolamine or potassium hydroxide). Some variants may also include fragrance, glycerin for moisturization, or aloe vera for soothing.
