I've been using this for a week now and frankly, it hasn't really clicked with me.
Although it has a blueish tinge out of the tube, the gel is clear on application to the skin, which should be thoroughly wetted with hot water prior to use; as there is no foam, it's difficult to tell how consistent the coverage of your application has been and the cooling effect of the gel rapidly kicks in, which gives the disconcerting sensation of shaving with cold, rather than hot water, which I find unpleasant. Although I can see where the bearded areas are through the transparent gel, it is easier for me to miss some here and there – I have to wear my reading glasses to spot any missed areas unless I use a magnifying mirror; I am reduced to relying on touch and often have to make more passes with the blade than I would need than with easily seen conventional lather as a consequence.

Also I have a Philishave with an Ice bar which freezes as you draw it across your face and it cools.
So I do have a little experience of the cool effect.
This gel is really pleasant.
The first thing to hit you is a wonderful hit of scent that smacks of cool mint and ice.
Indeed it is hard to find the right...

L'Oréal
======
They are the largest cosmetics company in the world. They have loads of brands from Garnier, L'Oréal and have huge research facilities in respect of cosmetics. Just because they're the biggest doesn't mean they're the best. Equally, just because they're the biggest doesn't mean they're evil. I've tested loads of L'Oréal stuff ranging from WOW this should be on the NHS to Oh my golly gosh-this is dreadful.
OK? Let's go..
