OR you could just get the stuff desigined for it. If not, make sure you get somethin that smells good at least. I like green label Barbasol.
With Respect Rob. Fair Warning.
Barbasol -> "One of the most popular shaving creams for men – Gillette, is also one of the most harmful one, along with Nivea Men, Barbasol and many other popular brands packed. These are packed with fragrance, phthalates, SLS and other toxic ingredients that can harm men’s reproductive systems and overall health..."

Every time you see the word
“fragrance” in your products it’s very likely it contains phthalates. Phthalates are used to make fragrance last longer and can enter the body through the skin, nose and mouth. It’s a well-known
carcinogen and endocrine disruptor which has a lot of links to long-term health and reproductive issues in men.
Exposure to phthalates through personal care products can
reduce testosterone levels.
A study by the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, found out phthalates can significantly reduce testosterone levels in boys ages 6-12 and men ages 40-60.
Unfortunately, phthalates are not often displayed on labels because fragrance is considered a Trade Secret in the U.S. Meaning that companies aren’t required to display all the ingredients that go into the production of a fragrance – which potentially contains phthalates and hundreds of other harmful ingredients.
So if you see ‘fragrance’ or ‘perfume’— even ‘natural perfume’—on an ingredient list, you should always question what that means."

Sodium Lauryl Sulphate -
"Another controversial ingredient is SLS,
often found in shaving creams. It makes a great lather, but it also has a number of health implications. SLS can cause skin irritation or trigger allergies.
Men who are frequently exposed to environmental toxins – which many are found in personal care products, can experience a
massive drop in both sperm count and sperm motility (ability of the sperm to fertilize an ovum).
SLS can potentially increase the chances of developing cancer, including breast cancer. – No, it isn’t a typo, men can also develop breast cancer, in fact
men account for approximately 1% of all breast cancer cases and the numbers are increasing."
Four harmful ingredients men should avoid like the plague in their personal care products and the effect on their health.
