Scent Notes

The Holy Black Shaving Cream features the brand’s classic Gunpowder and Spice scent, pairing a traditional wet shaving cream with one of The Holy Black’s signature fragrances.

Best For: Wet shavers looking for a rich, protective shaving cream that builds dense lather, cushions the blade, and helps reduce drag during the shave.


A Word from the Manufacturer

Men’s shaving cream should protect the skin and let the razor work. That is exactly what The Holy Black set out to accomplish with this formula.

The Holy Black Shaving Cream produces a rich, dense lather that builds quickly with a shaving brush or by hand. The lather cushions the blade and helps reduce drag, allowing the razor to move smoothly across the skin while helping protect against razor burn.

Unlike a formula developed from an existing base or private-label product, The Holy Black states that this shaving cream was formulated from scratch specifically for wet shavers. The result is a purpose-built shaving cream focused on protective lather, effective razor performance, and a clean post-shave feel without leaving the skin feeling stripped or coated with residue.

Directions for Use

With a shaving brush: Place a small amount of shaving cream into a shaving bowl or onto a damp brush. Work the cream into a rich lather, gradually adding small amounts of water until the desired consistency is reached. Apply evenly to the shaving area and shave as usual.

By hand: Work a small amount of shaving cream between damp hands, adding water as needed to build a creamy lather. Massage evenly over the shaving area before shaving.

Customer Reviews (5.0 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Matthew ★★★★★

The lather it whips up is thick and cushiony enough that my razor glided through a three-day beard without a single nick. And that gunpowder note lingers just right on the skin after rinsing — smoky without being overpowering.

Edward ★★★★★

The scent is exactly what it promises—a smoky, spicy kick that fills the bathroom nicely without being overpowering. It whips up into a thick, slick lather that holds moisture well through the shave, and the 4oz tin has lasted me a good while.

Robert ★★★★★

The lather this cream builds is impressively thick and slick, making the razor glide through a full three-pass shave without a single nick. The Gunpowder and Spice scent lingers nicely on the skin for a while after rinsing, which I wasn’t expecting from a cream.
