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.
