Billy Jealousy In the House!
Thanks to the good folks over at Billy Jealousy for sending over some samples of their Hot Towel pre-shave treatment, their Hydroplane shave cream, and their Shaved Ice after-shave balm. We'll be testing those out over the next few weeks here at ShavingStuff and have a review up soon.
We mentioned that week that Billy Jealousy was one of the FHM 2005 Grooming Award winners. Looks like those aren't the only accolades they've won. Check out their winning mention in these articles from EDGE Boston:
From Shaving 101: A Primer:
This luxurious product is brilliant; it preps the face and makes it much easier to get a closer shave. Hot Towel is a citrus scented cream that can be used in conjunction with their Hydroplane Shaving Cream. Water activation makes it hot, like an old-fashioned hot towel treatment you’d get at the barber’s. Contains Aloe Vera and glycerin. (Editor’s note: Not only did I LOVE this prepping product, but the packaging is fabulous- simply, stylish, masculine… and it actually works!)
From Shaving 102: Smoother Than a Baby’s…:
Pros: Contains aloe, chamomile and micro-silicon beads- these help soothe and promote a smoother skin. Also in the mix is an anti-inflammatory agent (bye-bye razor burn!) and hydroscopic humectants to suck moisture into your skin. Has a citrus-mint blend fragrance that actually makes opening your eyes a pleasant experience.
Cons: Kept sniffing the bottle.
Editor’s Note: As far as scent and consistency goes, this was my favorite. It smells incredible and it’s as thick as honey- I wanted to eat it!
And for those of you who want to finish the EDGE Boston series, here's the link to Shaving 103: Cool it Now…. and Moisturize Too!.
