The purpose of shaving cream is to moisten the skin and
prep it for hair removal. A very important aspect of shaving cream preparation is pH
level. It should be close to what the skins natural pH level is so there is not an
excessive amount of irritation caused.
Two of the most
common ingredients found in shaving cream are stearic acid triethanolamine. There are
also many other ingredients as well.
When shaving cream is
manufactured the process begins by heating the fatty portions of the formula. After is
has been smoothed it is allowed to cool. More ingredients are added at this point and it
is mixed. This is when fragrance can be added. The mixture is still allowed to cool and
it is screened to remove any lumps that may remain behind. The next part of the process
is packaging.
