Customer Reviews

Not as good as the older version3
I have been using these sticks for many years and they do a great job of helping to keep your face from getting razor burn from daily shaving. Really fantastic, but......

Remington decided to "improve" the scent. I was revolted when I tried the new ones with the white/red/blue cap. The increase of 'parfum' is too much and just stinks - imho. What used to be a pleasant experience first thing in the morning has turned into a trial. I keep thinking I'll get used to it but I never have. Hmmm.....maybe noseplugs.

I would not recommend buying these in bulk, (as I used to do) until you've tried one to see if you can handle the smell.


Since I first reviewed this product back in March, I finally found one without the intense smell. It's called Derma Bloc Pre Shave Powder Stick. It's also sold by a great company - Shavetronics, which you can order thru Amazon.
It's great! - and no more noseplugs.

Great pre-shave--as good a a wet shave5
I have very sensitive skin and tried wet shaving with several different electrics and this shave stick beats foam and loation hands down. As other reviewers point out the stick is made of talc in a parafin base. It makes dry shaving extremely smooth, as smooth as shaving with foam or lotion but without any of the mess. You can use this with any type of electric, not just Remingtons, and it's very easy to clean out, just tap it out and/or blow and/or brush. Highly recommended

Better Than liquids.5
When I got a new Remington electric razor a few years ago a package of Remington FaceSaver came with it. I used it until it ran out then started with the liquids like Lectric Shave. They never worked as well.

The powder is a talc, which dries that clingy bit of moisture on your skin, plus paraffin, which with the talc lets the head glide over your skin.

As another reviewer says, the powdery waste easily dumps out of the cutter head - no brushing required.

I hunt this stuff down. No other way to shave, in my opinion.
