Disappointing. Try the Refinery Oil instead.
2Before buying this product I read the reviews and noted that previous reviewers thought it was good, but perhaps a little over priced. Having bought this and The Refinery Shaving Oil at the same time, because I was unable to choose without trying them, my preference is the Refinery shaving oil by a mile. Why? Well the Aesop serum is ultra-slippery, however you need to re-wet your face fairly frequently during your shave. More of a problem, in my view, is that it leaves my skin tight, like after you use soap. On top of that it I think I only achieved about 25 shaves from the bottle (1 pump per shave). So yes I think it is over-priced. Contrast that with the Refinery oil, yes, there is only 30ml in the bottle, but I use 2-3 drops on each side of my face for a shave, so you get many more shaves. Furthermore, because it is an oil you dont have to re-wet your skin as often. While you can still cut yourself (I use a Merkur razor), in my opinion an oil is slightly more forgiving than other shaving lubricants in this respect it gives an awesome shave, and if you look on the back of the pack it is filled with exotic natural ingredients. Negatives? Well it has a slightly unusual smell which some might not like - I didn't but have become more used to it and have chosen to overlook it as the product is so good. The only other negative is that because the bottle is filled to the brim, you have to shake it vigorously to get the product out for the first couple of shaves - after that it is fine. Personally I overlook this too because the bottle is old fashioned in that it is a simple glass bottle. No plastic insert nozzles to give an easy pour or any such nonsense. Overall I urge you to support a fantastic product that seems to come from another era in that it hasnt been 'tizzed up' by modern marketing. Try it!
