The Art of Shaving® Pre-Shave Oil Customer Reviews

I use this before I apply shaving cream - does a great job lubing the beard so you don't get caught and cut yourself.

I swear by Art of Shaving products. This is the best pre-shave oil I have ever used. I have been using it for over three years!

I also recommend purchasing the shaving cream and the after-shave balm.

This stuff works great for my shave. I've noticed a lot less irritation since I started using it. I have sensitive skin and it doesn't make me break out at all.

I love this. Use it every time I shave! Definitely repurchasing when I run out of my sample. I checked out the other scents in person too- they're all great

This product was not very useful for me because I do not need to do anything to my face before shaving it. Smelled good and works though if you like to do that step.

I was not very impressed with this product. Overall I did not feel that it improved my shave. Additionally, I did not enjoy the smell of the product.

This is a shave oil works well enough, however, I feel in comparison to other shave oils that I have used it has a very heavy and thick feel to it, this is slightly off putting and generally after shaving with this I will feel the need to wash my face with soap to remove some of the oil that has been left on my face. Also due to this thickness it makes cleaning my blade much more difficult then similar products.

Art of Shaving is a solid line of products - I like the smell of this and it helped my shaves go smoother in combination with shave cream. I'd buy again.

I just can't recommend this product. The pre-shave oil causes whiskers to clump between the blades on my razor, requiring a rinse under the faucet after every stroke. I didn't notice any benefit with regards to irritation, and it left a greasy feel on my face for a couple hours after shaving. That said, even though the unscented oil is "unscented," it smells fantastic. It has a masculine but subtle fragrance similar to an old-fashioned barber shop - I love it! That saves it from being a total disaster.

This stuff really makes a difference and smells great. The trick is to rub it on and leave it for at least 60 seconds before adding shaving cream. I shave with a straight razor and the blade slides more smoothly when I start with this stuff. I highly recommend it.
