Manscaping 101 Men's Grooming Tips from head to toe for looking and smelling great

Manscaping Approved Product Review: Nivea Extreme Comfort Shave Gel and Aftershave Balm

by Tris Hussey on April 18th, 2008

manscapingapproved For the past week I’ve been trying Nivea’s Extreme Comfort shave gel and Aftershave balm.  My initial review was, pretty positive.  The neck irritation that I had before didn’t come back.  Amazing what a fresh blade can do for a shave.

My favourite things about the shave gel are:

  • great lather.  Doesn’t take much and you get great lather without much work
  • rinses clean
  • actually works well

For the balm I like the scent and that it doesn’t take much.

Final verdict: Yep this is good stuff.  Is the gel worth the extra money?  I think it might be.  Given that you don’t even need much for great lather and shave I think you might save money using this (I’m all about saving money).  The balm, well, I’m not a huge balm user, so I might not buy it, but if you are a balm fan–give it a try.  My skin has been pretty good for the week.

As I said before, at LondonDrugs the balm is $8 and the shave gel is $4.  According to press materials I’ve received, this should be the price you find other places (I couldn’t find them online at CVS or Wallgreen’s).

Thank you to the folks at Hill&Knowlton for supplying these samples to try.
