| User Reviews |  | Excellent product - if used properly rating: 4
I too have used dozens of creams, soaps, and gels, and although I like the quality, scents and feel of the old-style European soaps and creams, I now prefer the moisturizing properties of high-end gels. The Zirh fits the bill. Anthony Logistics is another company that makes a good gel with similar properties.
With respect to the negative review of the gentleman below, I'd like to point out a few things: if the razor clogs when using any of the high-end gels, you are using way too much gel. That is a common mistake, and most manufacturers actually write on the bottle, tub or tube that a very thin layer is all that is necessary. As the gentleman has found out, with this type of gel, using anything more than a thin layer is in fact counterproductive. Under no circumstances should one use so much that the gel is running and dripping down the face.
I would also say, if a gentleman gets irritations with a multi-blade cartridge razor, he should look into shaving with a DE safety razor (check out [...] for comprehensive discussions of shaving-related issues).
Finally, I find that having my skin moisturized before shaving is important to avoid irritations. Often, the first application of the shaving gel is promptly absorbed by my skin, indicating that it is not properly moisturized. Another layer usually does the trick, but I prefer to apply Trumper's Coral Skin Food (a glycerin-based lotion) to saturate my skin before I apply the shaving gel.
Oh, I gave "only" four stars, because the Zirh gel has practically no scent to speak of. That is something I miss. The good old creams and soaps from Taylor's, Trumper, etc. have the edge there.

The perfect shave gel rating: 5
I've been using Zirh shave gel for two years now. Today I ran out and had to use a backup gel that I keep around. The difference is tremendous! After being pampered with Zirh for two years, I started to take quality shaving products for granted. I tried to use some Aveno "sensitive skin" gel, and it felt like every whisker was getting snagged in my razor and ripped out by force. This absolutely never happens with Zirh! Zirh is shaving bliss.
I use a Gillette Fusion five-blade razor and I never have problems with Zirh not washing out. I use warm water and it rinses clean from the blades every time.
I couldn't wish for a finer product!

Great product rating: 4
Stop your shave burns with this great product. I also really like the Zirh shave Cream. I actually switch between the two and haven't had a razor burn in the last 2 years. Skin is soft and looks great. Try it and you won't regret it!

What a mess rating: 1
This is possibly the worst product I have ever used to shave with. I've tried them all. I've tried creams, foams, foaming gels, soaps, with and without badger brushes. Applying this "runny" gel on your face is an interesting feat as it drips all over the sink. There is a cool sensation when applying it, but too bad it doesn't actually help the shave. I use 2-blade and 4-blade razors and after just two strokes, the blades are completely clogged requiring me to rinse the razors vigorously to get the gel off so I can continue. My face and neck feel awful and have nicks and cuts everywhere, even after applying the Zirh pre-shave oil first. My $2.99 Nivea shaving gel works significantly better than the Zirh gel. Actually, I'd say that the Zirh gel doesn't work at all.

Worked Very Well rating: 5
Firstly I had no I dea this was marketed by stars or that it been "Hyped". I don't care. I have a facial hair and burns, and it allows me to see what I'm doing easily. It rinses fine off my blade with out issue. It delivers for me in the most important way; it leaves my skin smooth and razor burn free.
