REVIEW | Aubrey Organics Crème de la Shave Shaving Cream


Goal:
To find a GOOD shaving cream that has a low Rating on EWG’s Skin Deep Database.

Brand I Tried: Aubrey Organics.

Product: Crème de la Shave – Pomegranate.

Product Description: Get Closer. Made with rich emollients and fruit extracts, this moisturizing shave cream pampers and protects your skin for a luxurious, ultra-smooth shave and legs so soft, you may not need a lotion after shaving. You’ll love its silky feel and indulgent scent (taken from their website). It also has the Whole Foods Premium Body Care symbol/ label.

  • First Impression: Small package for the price, but nice packaging for Aubrey Organics, clean and fresh looking… I wish I could say the same for some of their other products.
  • Texture: Perfect consistency… silky, smooth and luxurious. Rich, but not greasy or sticky. Easy to rinse off. Sooo nice!
  • Scent: Pomegranate… fruity and pleasant.
  • How Long I’ve Used It: Everytime I’ve showered for the past month.
    Results: Very close shave, razor glides easily and smoothly. It gives you a nice thin layer and I love how moisturizing it is.
  • Easy To Find And Where?: Aubrey Organics
  • Aquired: Purchased with my own money.
  • Sample, Trial, Travel Sizes?: I don’t think they offer any. They should though!
  • EWG’s Skin Deep – Cosmetic Safety Database Rating: 3
  • Product This Will Be Replacing: EOS Eveloution Of Smooth Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream in Pomegranate Raspberry (the pink one).
  • EWG’s Skin Deep – Cosmetic Safety Database Rating for EOS Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream in Pomegranate Raspberry: 6 (I had to type it in…).
  • Verdict: I would totally buy it again! This is by far – the best natural shaving cream I have ever used! My skin felt awesome after using it. No razor burn or bumps! It’s a miracle LOL. I’ve used Alba, Kiss My Face, Trader Joe’s Brand, Aveda, Origins and several other conventional ones in the past. Downside, a few of them contain Carmine for color. I love that it smells girly and not like a health food store, and the packaging is nice too + would highly recommend + purchase again!
  • UPDATE 4.11.13  When I use Shaving Cream,  I still use these! They are the least toxic of the bunch that I’ve seen out there. xoxo
