How is Slick! Shave Gel different from other gels, creams, and foamies on the market?
A polymer lifts the hair (straightening it) and expands it (or weakens it) so that you get a blunt cut on the tip which is less likely to re-enter the skin. The glycerin and lanolin protect skin from the blades, reducing nicks and cuts. The menthol dries the hair straight (similar to a barber using witch hazel or menthol after trim work) to resist natural curl. Therefore, if you shave daily with Slick! Shave Gel, clinical tests prove that you will eliminate over 70% of ingrown hairs.
