I, like most people find reviews a bit tedious. You never know how
biased internet reviews are and they end up being too long. What you
need is a simple review that gives you pros and cons and a final
verdict.
I bought some Tesco everyday value shaving foam after realising the extortionate cost of branded shaving foams these days. As an example:
Gillette Series Shaving Foam (their cheapest foam) is £2.80. Tesco shaving foam is £0.26 - thats 11x more expensive! I decided to trial the Tesco Foam for a month. Prices continue to rise for gels which have become fashionable but actually make you do the work to create foam!
PROS
- Very cheap!
- Lathers very well
- Allows a close shave
- Didn't give me dry skin or irritation
- The bottle does not rust if left in the shower
- Has no smell or fragrance
Overall
9.5/10 - Good product, which shouldn't need advertising to sell. These days people's heads have been turned by celebrities endorsing products but the reality is there is very little difference between mass manufactured products and most are sub-contracted to other factories. I wouldn't be surprised if Tesco everyday foam was made in the same factory as Gillette shaving foam.An excellent product if you wish to bring your house hold budget under control. If you want your shaving foam to "say who you are" buy Gillette or King of Shaves for 11x- 20x the price. If you're content to realise that shaving is a chore and hydration simply comes from washing your face - just get on with it and buy Tesco everyday value shaving foam.
