Shaving101.com reviews Coate’s Tea Tree Limited Edition Shaving Cream
The Gentleman’s Shop, another fine retailer of men’s grooming products, announced they had acquired the Coates company back in May 2010.
And the re-introduction of this legendary shaving cream created a lot of buzz in the online wet shaving community as it was widely considered one of the best shaving creams ever produced.
Wet shaving guru Mantic even bought a tub of the ‘Coate’s Special Edition Tea Tree and Rosemary Shaving Cream’ and then posted a video review on YouTube last month.

He described the cream as “soft”, “very moist” with a “very pleasant scent”. Mantic praised the cream for its quality lather, adding that it’s “very slick” and ensures a “very nice and comfortable shave”.
So when we heard that Mike Sandoval, from Shaving101.com, wanted to test it out, we jumped at the chance to send him a tub.
But what did he think? “The packaging is slightly different from the old packaging, but it is nice and traditional,” he said.
Mike went on to praise the scent of the new Coate’s cream, describing it as “more pleasant because it is formulated with the mixture of tea tree and rosemary”.
“The cream itself is very soft and easy to lather. With only an almond-size amount of cream, I had no problem creating enough lather for a full shave,” Mike explained.
He added: “During the shave, the razor glided nicely along the skin and the Coate’s cream provided suitable protection. The formulation of the cream didn’t cause any sensitivity issues with my skin, and it rinsed away clean leaving a subtle amount of fragrance behind.
”Overall, Coate’s Tea Tree Limited Edition Shaving Cream was a quality cream, but I didn’t find it to be anything extraordinary compared to other shaving creams, such as Truefitt & Hill or Geo. F. Trumper’s.
”The cream didn’t moisturize better or lather better than any quality shaving cream.”
In conclusion, Mike said: “Coate’s shaving cream provides a nice shave and will appeal to those who enjoy the strong tea tree fragrance; however, I was disappointed to discover that it won’t reign supreme in my shaving rotation.”
So it seems that whilst Mike enjoyed shaving with the cream, he was not completely bowled over by it.
I wonder what Mike will think to our flagship cream, The Bluebeards Revenge, when he reviews it later this week.

Ask Mantic Q&A #5: Advanced shaving with a slant razor
US wet shaving expert Mantic has been taking part in a Question and Answer session with Shaving Shack visitors.
Already Mantic, a veteran of the BadgerAndBlade and ShaveMyFace forums, has answered questions on brush break-in, passes, runny lather and suitable brush types.
Today Russell asks: “Can advanced shaving techniques like J-Hooking and Blade Buffing work with a Slant Bar razor?”
You can watch Mantic’s excellent answer in the video below.
Next week Mantic will be answering even more questions on wet shaving techniques.
Ask Mantic Q&A #2&3: Brush Break-In & Types
In May, we managed to get a Question and Answer session with American wet shaving legend Mantic, a veteran of the BadgerAndBlade and ShaveMyFace forums.
The session proved very popular, with lots of excellent entries being submitted. We cherry picked the very best ones and sent them onto the wet shaving guru.
The first question Mantic answered was: “Why do I on occasion find that the lather from a soap is fine on the first pass, really creamy and slick, but when I start to apply with the brush for subsequent passes, it has turned airy and foamy? It is with soaps that I have had good results from before too.” You can watch his detailed answer by clicking here.
Today Mantic answers two more questions.
David asked: “It is assumed that boar shaving brushes need to be broken in. Do badger brushes also improve after a break-in period? I have read occasional mentions of this but have seen no definite discussion on the shave forums.”
And Kevin wanted to know: “Not having much experience with different brushes, is there a particular type of brush that I should use with soaps or creams? Boar hair brushes, or badger hair brushes?”
You can watch Mantic answer both of these questions in the video below.
Ask Mantic Q&A #1: Runny Lather
In May, we managed to get a Question and Answer session with double edge shaving guru Mantic, a veteran of the BadgerAndBlade and ShaveMyFace forums.
The session proved very popular, with lots of entries coming in. We cherry picked the best ones and sent them onto the US wet shaving expert.
And the first question comes from Tony, he asked: “Why do I on occasion find that the lather from a soap is fine on the first pass, really creamy and slick, but when I start to apply with the brush for subsequent passes, it has turned airy and foamy? It is with soaps that I have had good results from before too.”
Mantic has put together a superb video clip (see below) answering this excellent question.
And to spice things up we offered a prize of a puck of Mitchell’s Wool Fat (worth £4.99) for every question that gets published, so Tony expect your puck to arrive very soon!!
The best question overall will receive an additional tub of Truefitt & Hill 1805 Shave Cream (worth £14.99).
