Do you really need the more expensive gels and fancier shaving creams? Not really. You can use shaving cream you buy at a dollar store to shave and it’s just as good as the more expensive stuff (often the exact same brands at half the cost).

I have skin allergies, this means that anything that they add certain fragrance to will probably set my skin off. I find that the cheapest soaps, shaving creams, shampoos, etc… are usually the best for my skin allergies (since they usually don’t add all the fancy fragrance and extras).

Of course if you do have skin allergies as well, make sure you check the label, because some of the cheap stuff also use cheap fragrance, which is just as bad.
