Originally bought this for my father who always used powder when shaving with an electric razor. The first time we used this on his face we were both amazed at the difference in shaving...much more comfortable (smooth feel)...even if he skipped a couple of days and we'd have longer hairs to contend with.

When my dad passed, I gave my hubby the spare new container of the Remington FaceSaver. The first time he used it he was hooked! He said it made electric shaving much more comfortable, he had fewer breakouts and it didn't clog his electric razor. My hubby had always used aftershave lotions but not a pre-shave. Needless to say, he is now totally hooked! In fact, the next time I ordered from Drugstore.com he said "Don't forget to get my Remington Face Saver...in fact, go ahead and get me two this time!"

There is a very mild scent to this powder stick but it is quite pleasant, kinda of a "clean" smell, and doesn't linger or clash with cologne or deodorant scents. Hubby doesn't like strong smells and he is content with the scent.

I had higher hopes for this product. I shave after my shower and the residual moisture on my face causes the electric razor to drag. For a long time, I have used regular baby powder to solve this problem. I had hoped that this product would somehow be formulated for the task. It certainly is a convenient package and it avoid some of the inevitable mess of dealing with powder. But, in practice, it does not work any better and may work a little less well than baby powder.

      I have used the Remington Shave Powder for years. It is great for drying up the grease and moisture on your face for an electric shaver. I highly recommend this product.

          Easy to spread on face but does require some spreading with fingers. Once done, ready to go. Does not clog my electric razor and there doesn't seem to be any problems with residual amounts left on face after using. Really, just a nice change. Almost as close a shave as with the liquid preshaves.

            This product does not tug at my skin. It moisturizes my face as I use the electric shaver. When finished, my face is soft and freshly scented. It is a powder substance that does not clog the shaver nor my skin.I have used this product for many, many years and the product could no longer be found. Then, checking Drugstore.com, there it was and, of course, back to using it again. There is definitely no mistake of this product. Drugstore.com is always dependable of their service and their speedy delivery.

                  I find it very helpful for use prior to shaving after a workout or shower... whenever there is moisture on the skin. The product dries out the skin so the razor glides. Produces dust in the razor but with my Norelco Arcitec, I simply rinse the head. It leaves no residue. Highly recommended.
