So, I finally convince my wife to play a messy game with shaving cream dares and pies, yet last time I delivered shavin cream to her face her eyes stung like hell..I know because I've been there, which is a real turn-off actually and it might bother for the rest of the evening and she consider not doing this again.

So my question goes out to all you professional wammers out there, how to remove the sting from shaving cream?

P.S: Gillette sensitive skin- hurts like hell, and I don't like whipped cream pies..

Please advise...

You don't. while shaving is good fun to use, it feels good and looks great, personally I think it stings or burns the skin so prefer not to use it. At the moment I prefer betty crocker icing. its expensive but sticks well even if does take a while to get off after a session.

Use the "sensitive skin" kind and let the pie sit for about 10 minutes or so before using.

Not sure what the science behind it is, but I've found over the years it doesnt sting if you let it sit for a little bit first.

And obviously, close your eyes before you get hit.

I've found the brand and type matter a LOT.

Cheapo Barbasol smells bad and stings, as does Gillette sensitive skin as you've found.

My go-to shaving cream (which is my mess of choice) is the Gillette red can. It barely smells and it doesn't really sting. I commonly pie myself with it and it both works great and doesn't sting. Highly recommended.

Thanks for the tip. Good thread. It's been a minor problem in a few of my shoots.

Hydrochloric acid is said to neutralize the stinging agents found in shaving cream, just be sure to use the weapon's grade version of it and use a plastic pie tin.

Using Gillette if doesn't sting as much, as mentioned before it had sat out for a while too. The problem for me arises when you add water. The foam itself doesn't sting, but mix it with water(like when you're showering afterwards) and you've got to be pretty careful to keep your eyes shut tight until you've fully washed down your face, absolutely removing every trace, otherwise get ready for the sting ( and feeling of tiredness after).

Well thank you Johnny. I know you're not an SC fan but that was really nice of you to call us out as experts.

There's hope for you yet! LOL

Thanks Norman. That was awfully nice of you to suggest that me and jhub are shaving cream experts!

We have experimented with nearly every kind and we prefer Barbasol shaving cream. I guess I've been lucky but I've rarely had any problems with eye irritation. I know one thing we always do; we heat the cans up in a bath of hot water and let them sit for about 10 minutes. When the cream comes out of the can it has more of a liquidy consistency, similar to cool whip. If I use those pies right away they have a great splat and the cream is nice and warm!:lovestruck:

I'm not sure if this helps, but it's what we do.

We've been talking with Clown Julie, who has suggested shaving sticks instead of cream.

The cream can sting your eyes, but we've found cleanup is a lot easier, and it doesn't ruin our costumes. Learning timing and closing your eyes tight seems to work best for us.
