Overall, this product does not meet the expectations set by its predecessor, leaving guests searching for alternatives.

The original honeyflower was the perfect formula and I’m devastated to learn that it’s been discontinued. I’m extremely disappointed with this replacement. The consistency is very bad. There’s a lot more synthetic ingredients in this version, and it almost feels like a slick lotion that leaves a greasy residue. This irritated my skin immediately after one use and the razor bumps have been horrendous. Absolutely would not recommend.

Disappointed
I only bought this because the Venus Rifle Paper Co honeyflower was out. I had no idea at the time it was discontinued. This isn't even close to a replacement. It irritated my skin at the first use; ironic when it's marketed as a sensitive skin product. Bring back the honeyflower.

This is certainly not the comfortable and gentle experience we aim to provide, and we sincerely apologize for the discomfort it caused.

This product replaced the Venus Pure Honeyflower Shave Cream. It has a completely different consistency and doesn’t produce a good shave. Really disappointed that the Honeyflower is no longer available.

Too thin, try the shave oil instead
The shaving cream is too thin and causes razor burn. Instead, try using a shave oil. It definitely worked better.

Poor Quality
This formula is not anywhere near the same quality as the prior formula, which appears to be discontinued.
1 reply from Gillette team - 5 months ago

Bring Back Honeyflower
This shaving cream is awful. Please bring back the Honeyflower shaving cream formulation. I bought this thinking it would be the same with just a different scent, but no this new formula sucks. Feels like I’m trying to shave with just plain lotion that washes away before I’m even able to shave. It’s way too runny and does absolutely nothing to protect my skin during shaving. Useless product.
1 reply from Gillette team - 5 months ago
Thank you for your very direct and honest feedback on the current Venus shaving cream. We are genuinely sorry to hear that you find this new formula awful and that it's not providing the protection or performance you expect, especially when compared to your experience with the Honeyflower formulation. We understand your frustration with it being too runny and feeling like plain lotion that washes away too quickly, leading to an unprotected shave. We truly appreciate you sharing your strong preference for the previous Honeyflower formulation and highlighting the issues you've encountered with the new one. Your detailed comments are incredibly valuable as we continuously review and improve our products. We'd like to hear more about your experience and discuss how we might assist you. Please contact Gillette's customer service directly at 1-800-445-5388. We are here to help and value your loyalty to Venus products.

Not good.
I bought this because the honeyflower version is now nowehere to be found? Anyway, this is not a substitute for that one. It's a lotion consistency, so not anywhere near as thick and creamy. Also, it has a problem dissolving. Clogged my razor and stuck all over my shower.
