Trying to get a smooth shave with a heavy beard can be, well, painful. Even the best razors in the world often won’t stand up to the task, and for some guys there isn’t enough pre-shave oil in the world to keep the razor burn away. So how do you get that barber-close shave when you can’t get to the shop?
The Bachelor Guy recently got a look at the Real Shaving Company’s Hot Towel Mask and he was totally impressed. This is a guy who has tried just about every shaving product in the world, most of which are far more expensive than the RSC’s solution. Here’s what he had to say:
The Hot Towel Mask is paraben-free and contains Vitamin E, zinc oxide and tea tree leaf, and an ingredient that reacts when in contact with water. So when you wet your face and rub this stuff in, you get a real warming sensation as the minerals soften and lift your whiskers, getting them ready for the razor.
I left the mask on (and let me mention that it’s not like the mask your girl puts on, all thick and muddy… it’s a thin white layer that looks like soap), for the suggested 5 minutes, rinsed it off, and applied my usual shaving cream. (They sent theirs, but I wanted to test the mask’s effects shave for shave.)
The result? One of the closest shaves I’ve had in a long time. And that includes using top-of-the-line pre-shave oils. Which cost considerably more than the Hot Towel Mask’s $5.99 MSRP. (And it’s also part of the complete travel shaving kit pictured, which also includes the Daily Face Scrub, Shave Cream and Soothing Balm, for only $11.99)
The only drawback is that this stuff can be hard to find outside New Jersey and New York. You should be able to find Real Shaving Company’s Hot Towel Mask at Amazon.
