It's suave and efficient, minimizing razor drag for a comfortably close shave.

 Q&A:
Why should I switch from my can of shave cream foam to Hydroplane Shave Cream?
Traditional foam shave creams are comprised mainly of air and tiny bubbles. These tiny bubbles provide the cushion between your face and a razor. Unfortunately, they don't provide much cushion or lubrication which often results in razor drag, nicks and ingrown hairs. Hydroplane Shave Cream, on the other hand, is comprised of millions of beads of water-soluble, micro-silicone. This ingredient provides much more lubrication which results in greater razor glide. The water-soluble part means that the product does not break down when it comes into contact with water. Instead, it becomes slicker and slicker, ensuring a close but comfortable shave.
How much product should I use?
Apply a quarter-sized amount to wet face.
Does it have a fragrance?
There is no added fragrance in Hydroplane Shave Cream. It does have a natural fragrance due to the orange, grapefruit, lime and bergamot oils in the product.
Hydroplane Shave Cream is pricier than some of the other shave creams I've seen. Is it still a good value?
Yes, it is an excellent value because you need very little product in order to experience a great shave. An 8oz bottle can last for several months.
Does it contain any alcohol?
There is no alcohol in Hydroplane.
Does it contain Menthol?
No Menthol was left out of this product. While Menthol triggers a nice cooling effect, we believe it over stimulates skin during the shaving process, when the skin is most vulnerable.
I've seen Benzocaine in some competitive products. Does your shave cream contain this ingredient?
No we left out Benzocaine as well. Benzocaine is a numbing agent. We feel that our shave cream is such a superior product that we don't need to include a numbing agent in it. Shaving with a product that includes Benzocaine may also result in applying too much razor pressure while you shave which may be harmful to your skin.

5 STEPS TO A GREAT SHAVE
Shave After a Shower:
The warm water softens hair for a closer, more comfortable shave.
Wash Face:
Use either a mild facial cleanser like Billy Jealousy's White Knight Gentle Daily Facial Cleanser or a couple of times a week use a scrub like Billy Jealousy's Sucker Punch Face Scrub. The scrub will lift hairs to prevent ingrown hairs from occurring. It will also exfoliate to remove dead surface skin cells that can cause razor bumps and acne.
Use a Fresh, Clean Blade:
A triple-or-more blade is great. Most of these razors last for 5 or more good shaves.
Apply Hydroplane Shave Cream:
Smooth the shave cream all over your wet beard. Shave in the direction of the hair growth. For tougher hair, re-apply shave cream and shave sideways or softly against the grain. Afterwards, rinse face with cool water and pat dry with a clean towel.
Apply After-Shave Balm:
Your skin needs to quickly cool and restore moisture content. Billy Jealousy's Shaved Ice After-Shave Balm contains Aloe Vera to moisturize and Allantoin to heal and block pain. |

I discovered Billy Jealousy at The Shave of Beverly Hills while trying out 4-5 new creams. Hydroplane stood out from the rest and I've been using it ever since. The Shave no longer carries it, so now I buy it on Amazon. It's also at Nordstrom.
What's great about it is that the lube never fades while on your face, so when you need to go over a rough patch again, you can just smear it around and shave away. Feels good. Smells good. I strongly recommend it!

I initially tried this product with a Mach-3 Turbo razor. Given the reviews and the price, the results were disappointing. I still experienced too much irritation on my neck to shave every day. Later, I tried it with a Panasonic wet-dry electric shaver and this seems like the perfect lube for that application. It doesn't make the electric shave any closer, but there is no irritation to my face or neck, and no build-up on the blades and foil.

It's expensive stuff and I don't like the smell. So how can I give it five stars? Because I don't get burned and my face doesn't break out. Totally worth the smell and the cost.
If I had to guess I would say the silicone base is responsible for all that is good and bad about this product. The only thing I've used that comes close to keeping my skin happy post shave is Anthony Logistics for Men Shave Cream. They're both superior products. Expect to pay extra.

Being a man that appreciates a good shave, I've quested for the best possible products to achieve just that. My quest is over. Billy Jealousy Hydroplane easily deserves 5 stars. Previously, I wasn't able to shave everyday without irritation. Now that I've found this line of products, it's actually enjoyable to shave. No ingrown hairs. No razor burn. No razor bumps. Combined with Billy Jealousy Hot Towel pre-shave, it's the only shave I've had that deserves 6 stars! Now, if only amazon.com would offer ... Read More

I love this shaving cream. Throughout my shaving years, I've used dozens of shaving creams, gels, soaps, etc. and I love this the most. I don't get any irritation and the shave is so smooth and quick. I used it with the Billy Jealousy pre-shave treatment. Just combine the two in the palms of your hands and massage them into your beard. You'll get a great sensation and a smooth and effortless shave.
