I never really paid much thought to my shaving routine. I used to only use water and you know, it worked. Not necessarily good, in fact it was rather bad as I'd always have this one person pointing out how much I nicked myself. I started trying body wash with it, and it was the yogurt stuff (I believe it's dove brand but I can't be positive) and it worked really well...ish. Compared to the old method it was great. It lost its bubbliness before I could get my razor over to most of it, and it ran out quickly. When I went back to get more, I noticed the Skintimate stuff on an end display and I looked at it. There were only two choices at walmart, strawberry and the plain stuff. I tried the strawberry stuff and I can't believe that I'd been wasting all this time with plain body wash. This stuff is FANTASTIC! I got such a close shave, the foam STAYED and it feels so smooth! Better yet, my usually dry legs don't feel itchy anymore and I don't even have to use any greasy lotions. That, and it's fun to draw pictures in the foam... ahem... I mean... yay.

Skintimate has a wide variety of shaving creams for various skin types. Also, they have a ton of different scents ranging from fruity to floral. When I was a teenager, I liked the fruity fragrances, but as I got older I realized fragrance-free varieties with extra moisture (such as aloe or vitamin E) are better for my sensitive skin.

I love it! People who say they get cut probably have very sensitive legs or it was thier first time so of course u might get cut. It makes your legs noticeably smoother and softer. I was astonished after shaving when i touched my legs. They were so smooth! I didnt expect that at all. Really good scent too Get it, you'll love it. Dont get it if: You have sensitive legs you DONT want smooth soft legs :P

This is very good and usually what I pick up. I always use Alba Botanica lotion on my legs after shaving and it really keeps them smooth & soft.

A buddy of mine was using this stuff to shave his face the other night before going out. I kind of laughed thinking skintimate was only for women and asked him if he liked it. He told me to try some right there. I did and was amazed that it really did a great job. I know it has scents that are more attractive to women, but the rasberry scent wasn't bad, and I got a really good shave with it. Maybe closer than Edge sensitive skin.

Very nice. Leaves your legs soft and I havn't gotten cut. Only downside is, you need a lot of it to cover your legs

I like this shave gel. It smells so good and it works great too.

The one good thing about this shaving gel is that it smells good (I bought the raspberry scent). However, it is by far the worst product I have used in terms of moisturizing. My roommate borrowed it from me and made the same remark. I would go so far as to say it was slightly drying on my skin. Gillette works a lot better than this. My Dove body wash worked better than this. Actually, now I've started using regular hair conditioner as a shaving cream and it has worked really well, plus it's a lot cheaper. If you really want to use a shaving gel, get Gillette.

It must just be my legs but this stuff isn't that great. The kind I get says its the best to minimize cuts, yeah right. The first time I used it I got three cuts on my leg, deep ones too. And then when I dry off the blood gets on our white towels. I think it frightens people when they see that

I hate to admit this, but I'm a Marine who has to shave every day and when I ran out of my stuff one day, I used my wifes bottle of skintimate and it felt way better than my edge gel. So she laughs at me when we go shopping and I ask her to pick me up a bottle of it.

I love Skintimaite shaving gel. I also use the pear scint, and it smells so good I could eat it. After using this one time, I had fewer nicks, cuts, and my skin felt really moisturized! I will never use another kind!!

Skintimate really moisturizes my skin. I use the pear fragrence and it's quite pleasant! The gell turns into foam and this prevents me from having to use to much, a little goes a long way.
