I was recently given the opportunity to review Menskin's shavestick. It's pretty interesting since it isn't a traditional shave cream or balm and it literally looks just like a stick of deodorant! I wondered how well it would lather because it's a stick, but it ended up working great!

| I was sent 3 Shavesticks to review. Each has a distinct scent |
How It Works
First, you wet your face, then you wet the shavestick.
Apply it to your face in smooth strokes.
I found that if I went in all directions when I applied it, it lathered nicely and it gave a clean, smooth shave. I would say that one of the best aspects of this product is the different scents it comes in. I was sent a very refreshing citron, ice (kind of minty), and my personal favorite--stealth. I didn't find that this irritated my skin at all.

| While 2 of the shavesticks I received were white, Ice had an interesting marbled effect. |
Over all I give this product 4 thumbs up if you are looking for something that would be perfect for taking with you to the gym or traveling since there is zero chance of mess since it comes as a solid with a screw-on cap. Obviously it's great for at-home use, too. If you want to try something new, this is definitely worth giving a shot.
