    Good Points: Smells nice.
    Lathers quickly.


    Bad Points: Doesn't moisterize well.

    General comments: I've been using the Maca Root Shave Cream for the past two weeks. This product is, in my opinion, inferior to the Body Shop Original shave cream which contained a number of vitamins and oils that left skin feeling moisturized and smooth. The thing I liked about the orginal formula was that after I finished shaving, I would simply wipe my face with a towel as opposed to washing the remaining residue off. I found that the original shave cream acted as moisterizer without having to apply a face cream after shaving. Doing the same with the Maca Root product does not result in the same moisturized feeling and requires me to use and additional moisturizing product (...and as most guys will tell you, this is justed another time consuming step in our morning ritual which we would rather avoid). As for the smell of the Maca Root product line, I actually quite like it and purchased a deodorant bar.

The maca root cream is not as easy to use as the old shave cream and it smells much worse - like cheap perfume. The old cream was much more masculine smelling - it felt like the real deal shaving cream. It was a classic ...

    I have been given this new, updated, The Body Shop For Men Maca Root Shave Cream as a present, having used the older For Men Shaving Cream from the Body Shop for many years. The 1st thing I noticed was the lack of lather and how it seemed like normal soap, rather than a shaving cream. You need to use almost twice as much compared to the old product and it is much thinner, although this makes it easier to mix with warm water and a shaving brush. The second was that it smells very different; much ...
