Taylor Jermyn St Pre Shave Gel comes from Taylor of Old Bond Street, a brand that traces back to 1854, when Jeremiah Taylor opened his salon on Bond Street and built a reputation for botanical extracts among London's fashionable set. The Jermyn Street collection was developed specifically for sensitive skin, and this pre-shave gel is formulated without common allergens, built instead around witch hazel, aloe vera and chamomile to calm and prepare skin before the razor touches it.
Applied before your usual shaving soap or cream, the gel helps reduce friction and irritation during the shave itself, making it particularly useful for anyone prone to razor burn or redness. The fragrance is a modern, fresh fougere with bergamot, lemon and lavender over a base of musk and patchouli, subtle enough not to clash with whatever cream or soap follows.
A useful addition to a routine for sensitive skin, and one that pairs naturally with the rest of the Jermyn Street range if you want a consistent scent throughout.

Great way to soften bristles
I have very sensitive skin and would have to go more days than I would like per shave in order to ensure I did not end up red faced. After some suggestions regarding pre shave products I tried this as I like the smell of Jermyn St products. It works really well, sort of like how TotalSolution oil works, it forms a sort of barrier over the hairs which in turn helps the razor glide over the area. Application is simple, take a pea sized amount and rub it into the area you wish to shave then apply shaving cream or gel, then shave. I only use it for the first pass as it seems to be enough. All in all it makes a massive difference and smells lovely so 5 stars!
