Duke Cannon Supply Co.Hot Shave Clear Warming Shave Gel, Unscented (4.5 oz) Clear Shaving Gel for a Close and Comfortable Men Shave, 4.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

I love this stuff! But like some of the other reviews I've read, the hot part stops working after repeated use. I bet if you cut back to using it only a few times a month it would continue to be hot. Regardless, it really opens up your pores. I use this, then a shaving brush with some Proraso soap and get a super close shave every time!

You only need a little. No foaming. Smooth shaving. Smells great. Light rinse and its gone.

Being a fan of Duke Cannon Superior Grade Shaving Cream, I had to try this when it came out. I was instantly impressed by two things: first, unlike any shaving cream, this gel is completely clear so you can see what’s under it; and second, the warming part really works – it feels great on the skin and also helps the shave go smoother. The only "downside" to this gel compared to the shaving cream is that I get no cuts when using the shaving cream, while with the gel I get one or two. I think that happens because the gel is much smoother and makes shaving so much easier that I tend to go faster than I would with the cream. So, those extra cuts are more due to the way I shave, and not the gel’s fault. Overall, this is my go-to when shaving with a razor (Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power).It seems that Duke Cannon has decided to discontinue this product, which is too bad. Once they're sold out of their stock I will have to look for another warming gel solution for shaving. It’s hard to go back to a regular shaving cream after this.Ratings: scent, 5 stars - pleasant but not overpowering; value for money, 4 stars - Duke Cannon products tend to be more expensive than a store brand but less expensive than designer brands; comfort, 5 stars - the warming and being clear really help with the shave.Pictured: the travel size version, and the now discontinued regular size.

The thing I don't like is that the can is no longer available so in the long run, I'm spending more money to get the same amount as what was in the can.What I like about the product is that if you rub it in and wait a full minute, the stuff heats up and makes the shave smooth and close. The fragrance isn't overwhelming I even use it for shaving my head.The cans have been discontinued and the tube is like a travel size.I'd recommend it though if you like the idea of a clear warm gel.

At first, I thought he's just liking newer things as I use foam in a can. I was happily surprised as this stuff gives you a really great shave without the scrapes and redness if you don't shave every day.

I had used the Duke Cannon cooling aftershave before, so I decided to see if there is a hot shave product; sure enough Duke Cannon makes this Hot Shave Gel. Not only that, but they also sell the Hot Shave Gel and the Cool Aftershave together on their website.So I ordered the hot shave gel. I tried it just five minutes ago, along with the ice cool aftershave. First of all, the shave gel does not lather at all; this is more like a shave lotion. Also, the shave gel is totally clear, so you really have to make sure you get it where you want to shave. It is not hot immediately. I started feeling the heat after about a minute of it being on my face. The heat was nice. It wasn't an overpowering heat like I might have been hoping for; but it was definitely burning my skin to some degree.But finally, the reason I'm giving this gel 3 stars out of 5: It does not produce a smooth shave. The blade was definitely not slick and smooth against my skin like with my other shave products. The hot shave of course does produce some blade lubrication, but I could easily feel that it wasn't enough.After shaving, I used the cooling aftershave, and I can see why they sell these two together.Overall, the shave isn't that bad. It's worth a try. But if you enjoy your shaving routine, and enjoy a smooth shave, then this one probably isn't for you. I'll use this stuff sparingly; only because of the non-smooth shave.

While my experience with this product has been nothing but the best (it warms nicely and gives me a closer shave than any other shaving gel I've tried), let me also address the issues another reviewer complained about.Reviewer stated he couldn't get it to lather - it isn't supposed to lather. Rinse your face with warm water, spread a small amount over area to be shaved, wait 20-30 seconds as stated in the directions (you'll feel it warm up), then shave. No lather necessary.Reviewer stated the chemicals burned his skin - I imagine it could if you spent too much time trying to make it lather. I've never had this issue either.I've also bought this product from a store, so this is not my first go-round with it. If I didn't think it worked as advertised, rest assured I wouldn't be buying more of it. This one is for my travel kit.

The only heat was the warm water you mix it with. Thought this was self-heating but when mixed with a little warm water as the directions indicate, the shaving gel only got colder and never heated. Way too expensive to not work.
