This is the unscented version of Extro Cosmesi's shaving cream, handmade in Italy using a formulation built around coconut oil, cocoa butter, shea butter, sunflower oil, calendula oil, donkey milk, goat milk and fenugreek. There's no added perfume, so it won't fight with whatever splash or balm you reach for afterwards. Below, we've covered what's actually in the tub, how it behaves during a shave, who it tends to suit, and how to get the most from it with a brush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is Extro Cosmesi Zero Shaving Cream?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExtro Cosmesi Zero is the fragrance-free edition of Extro Cosmesi's \u003ca href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/shaving-cream\"\u003eshaving cream\u003c\/a\u003e range, made entirely by hand in Italy. The brand lists it as a shaving soap in terms of product category, even though it's sold and used as a cream — this isn't unusual in traditional Italian shaving, where soap-based creams (sometimes called 'crema sapone') sit somewhere between a hard soap and a softer cream in texture and use. Either way, it's designed to be loaded with a brush and built into a lather, not applied straight from a can like an aerosol foam.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe headline feature is straightforward: no added fragrance. The olfactory profile is listed simply as \u003cstrong\u003eUnscented\u003c\/strong\u003e, which makes it a practical option if you want the skin-conditioning benefits of a traditional shaving cream without any scent layered on top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIngredients and Formulation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to the product's ingredient list, Extro Cosmesi Zero contains:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAqua (Water)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStearic Acid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePotassium Hydroxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaprae Lac (Goat Milk)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDonkey Milk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrigonella Foenum-Graecum (Fenugreek) Seed Extract\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTheobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eButyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalendula Officinalis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSodium Hyaluronate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStearic acid and potassium hydroxide are the saponifying agents typical of a traditional shaving soap base, while the coconut oil, shea butter, cocoa butter and sunflower oil provide the fatty content that helps condition the skin during the shave. Donkey milk, goat milk, calendula and fenugreek extract are included as the formula's skin-care additions, and sodium hyaluronate is a humectant commonly used to help the skin retain moisture.

A Quick Note on Terminology\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll sometimes see products like this one labelled as both a 'shaving cream' and a 'shaving soap' depending on where you look — Extro Cosmesi Zero is a good example, as the name says cream while the product category says soap. In practice, most traditional shaving creams and soaps are used the same way: loaded with a wet brush, built into lather either in a bowl, scuttle or directly on the face, then applied before shaving. If you're new to this style of shaving and want a fuller explanation of the differences in texture and lathering between creams and hard soaps, our \u003ca href=\"\/en-ca\/blogs\/news\/shaving-cream-vs-shaving-soap-which-one-works-best\"\u003eguide below\u003c\/a\u003e covers it in more detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA general approach for using a traditional shaving cream or soap like this:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWet your \u003ca href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/shaving-brush\"\u003eshaving brush\u003c\/a\u003e thoroughly with warm water and shake off the excess.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoad the brush by swirling it over the surface of the cream for twenty to thirty seconds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild the lather either in a bowl or scuttle, or directly on damp skin, adding small amounts of water until you reach a thick, creamy consistency.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply the lather in circular motions to help lift the hairs, then shave with your usual razor and technique.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRinse well and follow with your chosen aftershave balm or splash — since this cream carries no fragrance of its own, it won't alter the scent of whatever you apply afterwards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePairing with Aftershave\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause Extro Cosmesi Zero has no added perfume, it's a practical base to pair with any \u003ca href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/aftershave\"\u003eaftershave balm or splash\u003c\/a\u003e in your collection without worrying about clashing scents.
