Nivea Men’s Shaving Gel and Nivea Shaving Balm
I confess that I have done a shoddy job of covering male focused products. So in an attempt to remedy that mishap I recently had one of our male staff try out some recommended Nivea Shaving products.
And in true male fashion his review was concise and straight to the point! 
1. Nivea for Men Shaving Cream
Perks - Liked the nice, thick lather, attractive packaging, good smooth shave, even better than my higher end Nutrogena shaving cream.
Vices - Didn’t like that the can is so full of compressed air that there is always a little ‘left-overs’ coming out of the spout which eventually dries up and has to be cleaned off before the next use (this goes for all shaving cream that comes in this type of packaging basically). Would change the dispense method. It’s effective, but the ‘left-overs’ are annoying as hell.
Overall - Would definitely recommend it to friends and would definitely buy it over the competitor Nutrogena product!
Price - $3.43

2. Nivea for Men, Extreme Comfort Shaving Balm
Perks - Like the packing better than their old bottle, a flip top is easier than unscrewing the cap like the old one. Scent is okay, I actually prefer the scent of the old one.
Vices - Didn’t like the consistency of the balm (compared to the old). It’s green, which is a little off-putting at first, doesn’t go on and absorb as easily as their old after shave balm. Stick to the white, non-greasy, easily applied, better smelling balm, nothing was wrong with the old in my mind (except for the new packaging, it’s better).
Overall - I’d change back to the old balm, but use the new bottle. If not, maybe just the old scent and the less thick consistency, this felt more like a thick skin cream rather than a light after shave balm.
Price $6.79
