In my January post I featured the Alloy line of men’s products. I made specific mention that the Alloy Shave Gel had been improved several times during the 15 years I’ve been using it. Well, it had already happened again and it definitely got better—again!
The picture above is the same one from my January post and the tall shave gel canister shown is the improved formulation, but I had not tried it yet at that time since I was still using the previous version and photographed the new canister I had on hand for when my then existing one was used up. I didn’t even know yet at that time the formulation was different. What a nice surprise!
The improved product formula dispenses through a new trigger design that partially aerates the “gel” into a lather. As you apply the lather to your face, it is extremely thick and creamy and luxurious. It’s also significantly more fragrant than before and the oils used definitely invigorate the skin and provide a shaving experience radically improved over the previous formulation. If you’re a new customer or considering becoming one, you may have missed the comparative experience this time around but you will still certainly notice that Alloy Shave Gel provides a sense of indulgence while we wait to see how they accomplish the seemingly impossible and improve it again in the future.
Now I’ve been enjoying yet another improvement of this product and I can easily say it’s the best one yet. It takes shaving comfort to another higher level!
