I lost my shaving creams to the Airport guys since I d packed them in my handbag. Now I am in Toronto and finding it hard to get a shaving cream / gel . Foams are readily available but somehow I m used to creams .

Any where where I can find shaving creams preferably Indian at reasonable prices . I found one @ a pharmacy for $8/- :confused:

Go to any walmart and you should be able to find different varieties of shaving gels at about $2

You should be able to find several brands that are also there in India like Colgate. What brand are you looking for?

In Rome be like a Roman - try to adapt to using shaving creams that are available locally. They will be cheaper.

Some of the Indian cosmetics that are imported from India are available at Indian grocery stores and are very often expensive than the local brands

Go to nearby Shoppers Drug Mart and you will get Shaving Cream Named FLORENA easily for about 3/4 dollars. Some time in sale for one Dollar.

Cheers!

Could somebody please name a good quality twin blades razor (brandname) for shaving, available at walmart?

I find a lot of 3 blade razors, but like to use a twin blades one, instead.

Thanx in advance.

Any convenience store , drug mart, walmart, grocery store will carry many varities of soap, crea, gel , blades .. you name it.

it is just a matter of strolling down the aisles and checking.

i am assuming, these posts are coming from qualified independent class immigrants and cant figure out why they chose to post it on CD...?

What do you mean by cream? Do you mean the shaving paste sold in toothpast tube like tubes? You will rarely find Shaving Cream being sold in tooth past like tubes in the western countries. Almost all shaving creams are in pressurised cans that dispense either foam / gel. Ofcourse the Shaving soap concept doesn't even exist here (and I guess you don't find shaving soap anymore in India too)

I always buy Colgate shaving gel (the tallest can) that is sold for around $2.30 in walmart as it seems to last longer for the money I spend. Gels are cheaper than foam and last for several months.
