I can never go back now. It is so convenient. You can shave dry or wet with it. The stick applicator is so easy to use. It glides right on. It helps me get the closest and smoothest shave ever. It also doesn't need to be rinsed off. You just rub it in, and it doubles as a moisturizer — you don't even need moisturizer after!
