Get smooth, irresistible-feeling skin with shaving creams and gels from CVS. These products help razors glide effortlessly over your skin, reducing irritation and enabling a closer shave.
Shaving Gel vs Cream
Shaving creams and gels have different textures, but both products help provide a more comfortable shave and a cleaner result. The ideal choice often comes down to personal preference and the specific area you're shaving.
Creams have a thicker, richer texture, similar to hair conditioners, which may help razors travel through thick, coarse hair. They often moisturize your skin more intensively than shaving foam, making them ideal for getting smooth legs and arms, although you can generally use these products on your face and other areas, too. The best shaving creams help leave your skin feeling smooth and hydrated, reducing the risk of razor burn and bumps.
Gels are typically transparent, allowing for improved visibility while shaving. While they often contain added moisturizing ingredients, they have a more slippery texture. This may make them ideal for sensitive skin, as the reduced friction helps the razor glide over your skin.
What Does Shaving Cream Do?
Shaving cream creates a slick barrier between your skin and the razor blade, reducing the friction that can cause tiny cuts, redness, and irritation after shaving. Many of the best shaving creams include conditioning ingredients that soften the hair, making it easier for the razor to cut through coarser beards and mustaches. These products typically need to be applied a few minutes before shaving to allow them to work effectively.
To further enhance your shaving experience, applying a light moisturizer afterward can help restore hydration to your skin. This not only soothes irritation but also leaves your skin feeling softer and more comfortable.
Does Shaving Cream Expire?
The shelf life of shaving cream is usually about 2-3 years until it's opened. However, once you start using the product, air, moisture and bacteria can penetrate it, affecting its texture and performance. Using the product for up to 6 months after opening is generally okay, although some shaving creams may last as long as a year, depending on how airtight the packaging is.
To maximize the life span of your shaving cream, always store it in a cool, dark place, away from sunlight and excessive moisture. Wash your hands with soap and warm water before dispensing the product to help reduce the amount of bacteria it comes in contact with.
