10 Best Shaving Creams in the Philippines 2024 | Buying Guide Reviewed by Dermatologist

Formulated with five moisturizing and anti-inflammatory ingredients, Coochy Plus' Sweet Bliss Shaving Cream makes this among the best options for sensitive skin. It even works wonders on your bikini line, softening the coarse hair growth while preventing ingrown hairs, razor burns, and bumps.

It's also widely loved for its pH-balancing properties. Not only does this reinvigorate the skin, but it also prevents any nasty odor from developing, even during hot summers! So if you want a highly smooth shave with extra benefits, nothing beats this product.

Claiming to moisturize your skin for up to 24 hours, Eos's Moisturizing Shave Cream will leave you feeling silky smooth with just a single use. It does this with a combination of aloe vera and oat extract to lock in moisture, giving you a hydrated, plump look. These also make your razor slide smoothly, making burns and nicks a less common issue.

In addition, vitamins C and E will even out your skin tone. This reduces any dark spots you might have had from previous shaving experiences.  However, note that this product has a lotion-like consistency. It also doesn't lather much so more traditional people might miss the foam of other shaving creams.

Beutederm's Hugh Shaving Cream packs a lot for its small size. Despite not using any harsh chemicals, it's able to soften your hair for as smooth a shave as possible. Its relaxing alba flower scent also makes you feel as though you're spending a day at the spa.

Aside from giving a quality shave, it also doubles as a skincare product with ingredients like potassium azeloyl diglycinate, an ingredient derived from azelaic acid. This lightens dark spots, soothes blemishes, and even minimizes pores!

However, this shaving cream has a thick consistency, so some people may miss the lathery feeling of other products. If you experience this issue, try adding a few drops of water when making the lather. This will soften the cream, making for a smoother, easier spread.

Coochy's Oh So Smooth lives up to its name. Its specially-formulated ingredients give you a close, comfortable shave-even down there to your nethers. It also softens the hair for a seamless sweep of the blade. Though, if you want to keep your locks healthy and smooth, this product can double as a conditioner that’s suitable for all hair types.

If you're worried about irritation, this product has been dermatologically tested to not have adverse reactions even on people with sensitive skin. The only downside is that it can be pricey compared to other similarly-sized shaving creams. Fortunately, a small dab is enough to make your skin oh-so-smooth and irresistible to touch.

Cremo's Shaving Cream will make you look forward to grooming with its nourishing ingredients. A combination of aloe vera, papaya, and macadamia ternifolia extracts will leave your skin delightfully soft and smooth. 

Not only that, but it also contains citric acid, which helps in exfoliating dead skin cells. This will make ingrown hairs surface more easily, reducing the likelihood of you getting bumps.

However, it's worth noting that this product does not lather. As such, you may need to squeeze a few more drops to fully get a close shave, especially in areas with thick hair growth. In addition, the cream doesn't wash off easily, so try diluting the cream first to make it easier to rinse.

Coming in with ingredients from Jeju Island, Innisfree's Forest Shaving Cream has hints of cypress, pine, and cedar extract. This combination not only reinvigorates you with its natural scent, but also helps relieve tired complexions, cleanse the skin, and reduce irritation.

Though what's most special about this product is its inclusion of black yeast,  an ingredient that repairs your skin's natural barrier while keeping it moisturized. So if you want to relive your younger years with a fresh, plump look, this is your pick!

Take note though that this product may not be suitable for those with sensitive skin. Chemicals like menthol and parfum are added for fragrance, and while generally harmless in small amounts, can still cause irritation to some people.

This shaving cream is perfect for those with frequent razor burns. Being made of 99.8% natural ingredients, Human Nature's Shaving Cream is virtually free of any chemicals that can irritate your skin. Plus, its aloe vera and peppermint formula will give you a cool, soothing finish.

However, it's not useful for dealing with nicks. The minty feeling may cause more burning sensations in the wound. Plus, the lather can be thin even with the recommended amount, so you may want to look at other products if you have coarse hair. If you want an even gentler formula, they also offer a product formulated for women.

Chic, compact, and versatile, Aromatica's Soothing Aloe Vera Gel is perfect if you want an all-in-one product you can take anywhere. It has three functions, and it does all these surprisingly well: a shaving cream, a sleeping pack, and an essence booster. 

For all of these, it has a hydrating power that plumps up the skin. It also encourages cell regeneration which can reduce wrinkles and lines. Just rub a few drops of this product and let it work its magic.

It can, however, be sticky. The gel-like consistency makes hair matted to the skin, and while this is no deal-breaker, it may make it more difficult for you if you're new to shaving.

American Crew's take on shaving cream prioritizes protecting the skin. Its lotion-like consistency makes a great cushion to protect the skin from the blade, though you might need some time to adjust. Meanwhile, its infusion of antioxidants creates a protective layer that protects you from irritants like ultraviolet rays and pollution.

However, this product falls short in terms of slickness. Some users have experienced more hair tugging with this compared to other shaving creams, most likely due to its thickness. You must also like peppermint if you're using this product, as its scent is known to linger even after several washes.

Unlike other shaving creams, JVR's Smooth Shave uses macadamia ternifolia oil. This ingredient is rich in monosaturated fats and an excellent source of vitamin E. As such, this product spreads without feeling greasy. In addition, since it's characterized by acids similar to your natural sebum, you can use this without worrying about getting oily skin.

However, the foaminess is severely lacking. Even with a substantial amount of the product, it only produces enough lather to cover thin hair growth. The added menthol fragrance is also surprisingly sharp, so we recommend diluting the product with water.
