Lectric Shave, Electric Razor Pre-Shave, 7 Ounce

When I first purchased this item,it was to go with my brand new Panasonic model ES- LA63 Wet/Dry electric razor. My first time using the electric razor, I did not use tje solution...but after using the electric razor for the first time, I was not too happy with how "close" the shave was. The electric razor that I purchased worked great as I have very sensitive skin. My 2nd time using the Elecrtric razor, I tried this solution , and although I was not using it in the shower (which seems to be the best method of getting the closest sgave in opening the pores), & then the added benefit,&proven fact that this solution makes all ones facial hair stand on end, and be easily removed/cut aeay. In a sense, this solution would be an (in between) method of using the Panasonic in the wet, or dry mode. As soon as I had made my first pass(not even in the shower, but over the sink) on my neck with this solution, I noticed in instant and huge change in the overall comfort, as well as closeness of the shave. Considering the sensitivity of my skin, I was actually shocked that in using my Panasonic EI - LA63 model actually did not require a breaking in period(where skin may be irritated, or left with visible patches of razor bumps, for the first 30 days or so), as many people stated they always needed with an electric razor. I was very happy that even in shaving dry, I was not dealing with any irritation at all in my skin....but also worried that I had just purchased a razor that did not make as close of a shave as a standard multi blade razor, where one has to keep replacing those darn expensive cartridges& using tons of gel to prevent horrible cuts&irritation. Once using this solution, not only did it make for a much, much closer shave, with no irritation at all... but it made my shave simply perfect, as I tend to not shave that often, and always have a very short, clean looking beard, as I look like a little boy when I do shave; although I am 37 years old. If I don't leave a short clean/manicured beard, or goatee...& if I actually shave all of my facial hair off, I am carded everywhere I go, and ask for ID, although I am 16 years past the legal age, plus at work, many clients ask me my age whenever they meet me in person, as I am dealing with large monetary transactions in my line of work, & I do not like looking like a little boy and having clients think I just got into the business, with no knowledge, or having the knowledge &experience in my field of work questioned. I also do not like shaving very much, as a razor always cuts my face, or leaves me very irritated, and I can never shave against the dirrction (Graim)of the facial hair growth without irritiation,&I am talking about cutting my neck all over, plus razor bumps. This product works very wel, in that it does not allow the electronic razor to create any irritation, and makes for a way smoother shave, as well as closer shave, and I can finally shave against the "grain" or growth of the facial hair on my neck. All one needs to do is apply this to their face( or whatever body region they wish to shave), wait about 15-20 seconds as it is absorbed into the skin and causes all of the hair folicles to "stand on their end" prior to using an electric razo(or standard razor which I also tried), and they will notice a huge difference in the quality of the shave vs. a standard dry shave with an electric razor (or standard razor,which it isn't even made for), and expect a wonderful&clean shave overall. For the cost of this item, the savings are huge vs. using a foam or a gel, as the gel makes "standard" shaving easier...but create a huge build creates a huge build up on electric razor (and a standard razor, causing one to constantly gave to run it under water and bang the razor on the sink, which can cause bacteria &worse in the process to build up on either a stanrard or electric device). Plus, I no longer have to worry about the bottom of the shaving gel can leaving a corrosive mark on the counter, as any water that ever touches that can, or gets near it will always leave that circular rust stain, that needs to be scrubbed away. This solution is very good for how close it allows the electric razor(or even standard razor, which its not even made for),to actually make a super clean shave. Just this 7, or 7.5 ounce amount of solution, I figure will allow me to use my electric razor for at least 6 to 7 months without needing to purchase any more shaving gel or cream. I also like the clean smell that it has as well, and simply soothes the skin as it allows for the closest shave that I have had with my brand new electric razor, which I far favor in comparison to my standard razor (that I HAD been using for my whole life). All of the above, plus the overall "savings" category is just an added bonus factor, or incentive for one to opt for an Electric Razor, vs dosposables that just add to the amount of garbage that we, as humans are leaving all over the planet. I love that an electric razor does not cost you $5 to $7 per cartridge, and those cartridges can last(me) only about seven shaves in total, and they will then tend to drag, and cut my face&then end up in a landfull somewhere. I have used this product for about 3 weeks, and could not be happier. The amount of money you save, plus the added savings and owning a great electric razor; which I purchased here on Amazon for under $100, means that I will actually save a lot of money this year, & in the years to come, as opposed to having to go out and buy those silly 5 bladed disposable cartridges &that rediculous foam all the time...which is just a pain in the butt, as well as the wallet.

This product is like after shave except, you apply this before you shave with an electric razor. It has a tolerable scent while using but, after you are done shaving it’s recommended to wash it off. It really works well at softening beard hair as well as lubricating your skin for a much smoother feel while using an electric razor. I use a Braun foil type electric razor and this stuff not only makes shaving much more comfortable it helps get a much closer shave. It also allows for a faster shave and eliminates razor bites. One benefit that’s not mentioned on the products description is the fact that while you are using, it lubes the blades and foil keeping razor running smoothly.

I’m pretty new to the electric shaving world. Just got one for Xmas this year. First time I tried was just dry without this stuff or any kind of aftershave. My face was left pretty red and irritated. Once I googled why I realized I needed this pre shave. What a difference! I will not shave without it now. The smell is great, not overpowering. It definitely makes a huge difference in helping the shaver glide easier and not ‘grab’ the hair and pull it but rather just glide over it as it cuts, if that makes sense. Very happy with it and has a great price for value ratio.

This is one of those products that's been around forever for a good reason. Williams Lectric Shave does exactly what it promises - it preps your face for an electric razor and makes the whole experience noticeably smoother. The formula dries quickly and creates that slightly tacky surface that helps the razor glide better and grab whiskers more effectively. What I really appreciate is how consistent this product is, and that the ingredients are natural and haven't changed. Unlike some of the newer pre-shave oils or gels that can be hit or miss, this just works every time. It doesn't leave any residue on the razor heads, and a little goes a long way - this 7 ounce bottle will last you months of daily use. The scent is classic barbershop, which some people love and others find dated, but it fades quickly so it won't interfere with your cologne. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that it can sometimes be hard to wash it off and can leave a slight residue, but it usually is not an issue. If you use an electric razor regularly, this is a no-brainer purchase. It's affordable, effective, and has stood the test of time for a reason. Way better than trying to shave dry or with just water.

Great classic barbershop scent and works as advertised! No skin irritation, the scent lasts several hours but isn't overwhelming. My suggestion is to be liberal with the application since the liquid isn't thick. Pricepoint is where I expected.

I'm a first time user of any electric razor pre-shave so I can't do an honest comparison, but...I can tell you that this product works great. I have a tough beard (like wire). This stuff works like magic, just splash a little on the areas you shave wait for 15 seconds and shave. I was about to replace my razor head, I tried this product and it shaved like a new head. Great product both for quality and price.

I never thought about a pre-shave but it makes sense when using an electric shaver. I’ve been using it and it really works as described. My face feels smooth after shaving, whereas not using I still feel some stubble. The scent is subtle and smells good but also doesn’t stick around-not interfering with your cologne. The product is much like after shave it is not thick or sticky. Applies easily just splash a little on before using your electric shaver. The size of the bottle is a great value and since a little goes a long way, I anticipate the bottle will last about 2 months.

This pre-shave actually helps with a better shave. It works wonders to help shave stubble without burning my face.

Great product

I was skeptical at first, but it is really good to use it with shaving machine or electric Razor. It makes your shaving soft and smooth. I highly recommend it 👌

Qué es una loción fantástica para rasurar porque deja una superficie lubricada y el rastrillo se desplaza con mucha facilidad y evita la irritación

I used this pre-electric shave lotion for many years and it has always proven to be the most effective. Primarily it reduces drag of an electric razor across the skin but additionally it causes the beard stubble to stand up which makes shaving a lot easier and quicker. Although never mentioned I believe it also provides limited lubrication to the blade/foil interface to reduce wear since I was using a Braun electric razor I purchased in 1974 until recently and have now replaced it since I can no longer purchase replacement blades/foils. In the 50 years I was using this razor I think I replaced the foils only 4 times. Personally I like the benefits of using Lectric Shave and will continue to use it.

V sry good for electric shaver users. I am using Williams for many years. But expensive to buy in India
