Queen Charlotte Shaving Cream

I am thinking about buying some shaving cream, anyone have any thoughts on it.

They make great products, the scents are medium to strong depending on which one and it makes a very dense protective lather. I quite like them and have always wondered why they don't get talked about more. Being produced in NC is big plus for me as well.

They were very hot a few years ago, but then other artisans came I to the picture and some of the thunder was transferred.

The "creams" are really soft soaps.  When they first came out there was nobody really making "croaps," so they called them creams.  Later they came out with their hard soaps.  Both the "creams" and the hard soaps are nice; they lather well and most of the scents are quite nicely done.  

Their aftershave balm is one of the best I've tried and is quite under discussed in the community, IMO.  I'm a big fan of the balms.

I own Cubano Breeze and Fougere.  I recently went back to bowl lathering and the first one I used was Fougere and was impressed on the amount of lather I made.  Great shave as well as after shave.

I'm disappointed that they are not actual creams. Been getting on a real cream kick lately and looking for truly good creams and their ingredient list looked great.
Darn.

Don't let that stop you. You should definitely give them a try. I think you would be happy once you did. If you find it's not for you, you should have no problem selling or trading.

Is mentioned more of a Croap than a cream.

I have gone through containers of the Queen Charlotte scent and I'm working on the Cayman right now. Great stuff. Easy to lather, good cushion and slickness and a great post shave feel.

Disappointed it's not a cream.

The only QCS cream I have is Vostok. Yes, it's a coldie and a goodie!
