Ambrosia
How to use
Wet your face and apply a generous amount of shaving cream to your beard. For best results, let the shaving cream sink into your skin for 3-5 minutes before you begin to shave. Shave the desired area and rinse the razor frequently under hot water to eliminate excess cream and stubble. Minimize razor burn and guarantee smooth skin, finish off with a facial moisturizer.

Razor burn be gone!

Ambrosia is our shaving cream for sensitive faces; those poor souls who suffer from razor burn, ingrown hairs and itchiness. Mark (LUSH co-founder and product inventor) used the gentlest ingredients he could find for Ambrosia, like oat milk and linseed to protect the skin during shaving, cocoa butter to soften and calming chamomile extract to soothe. Apply liberally before shaving for a smooth, irritation-free face.

Features

  • If your bristles are not so bristly: This lightweight cream is definitely the most suitable for you.
  • “Food of the Gods”: We call this shaving cream Ambrosia because it's a nutritious nectar for your skin.
  • It’s the bees knees: Ambrosia contains soothing honey to help the skin retain its moisture.

"Ambrosia is amazing. I have used it both while shaving and after. It does have a specific smell to it but that goes away within about two minutes. I have been using it for a week now and I can definitely see a difference, especially with ingrown hairs. Lush also ...more"

I am a gal cursed with burly woes when it comes to hair. On the plus side, I have awesome, thick, wonderful hair on my head-- on the downside, that hair is everywhere else, too. Manly hair vs. a woman's skin: Some days, my skin doesn't mind the razor. But on others it becomes my mortal enemy, and can leave everything from blistery skin to razor burn that feels more equivalent to a terrible sun burn that I, similarly, almost expect to peel. The hair usually wins in this battle, even with the best, most clean razors. I wish I could afford being professionally waxed on a regular basis, but neither time nor my wallet would allow such a thing.

Enter Ambrosia: the ally of the hairy gal's skin! I almost want to whip on a bikini to show off my victoriously bump- and rash-free skin, but then I remember it's 10 degrees outside and the snow isn't going to stop anytime soon. The smell is interesting. Tingly and crisp. It wakes me up. Not bad, but I'm glad it washes off well. Overall, this is an awesome product, and I plan to buy it again.

Thanks, Lush-- You've literally saved my skin!

I received this as a stocking stuffer for Christmas and only began using it about one week ago--specifically for my bikini/underarm area. I was hoping that this would be the cure-all for small cuts, red spots, and irritations in those areas, but it wasn't. The only plus side to Ambrosia is that it isn't half as harsh as regular shaving creams. I'm guessing that this would be best for guys with sensitive facial skin.

    Comments about Ambrosia Shaving Cream:

    I love this stuff! I use to get the worst razor burn on my legs before I started using it. I tried many different shaving creams, razors and lotions after and nothing worked. One day I walked into LUSH, never even hearing about it before and one girl recommend Ambrosia. I went home and tried it, I was sold!! I also love to use it as a lotion for my legs in between days I shave.

    Comments about Ambrosia Shaving Cream:

    I did like this but I'll probably try some of Lush's over shaving creams to see which one is the best fit. This one goes on smooth and clean, but you need a lot of it and it doesn't lather up.

    It gives me a clean shave, but not the closest shave (I have kind of crazy hair so sometimes there's still little bits that stay behind despite my best attempts). I will say that it was a life-saver in terms of preventing nicks and cuts, as it was so smooth, my razor just glided over it.

    Comments about Ambrosia Shaving Cream:

    It's so sad that it clogs the razor because it is so soft. I have tried every creamy shave cream imaginable and unfortunately I run into the same issue time after time. It makes shaving miserable because once your razor is clogged with oils it is ruined. I destroyed one razor and had to throw the second one out just by shaving my legs in one session. Very sad, I would use Ambrosia as a moisturizer in the shower but otherwise I have no other creative use for it. Keep trying lush - I know you will figure out a solution!

    My husband uses this cause he has sensitive skin and gets really bad razor bumps.We have tried so many things including a female razor until one of the Lush girls recommended this and he loves it. A nice clean smooth feeling when applied, it doesn't foam up. The scent isn't overpowering afterwards his skin feels so smooth I love it and the best thing is NO BUMPS!

      Comments about Ambrosia Shaving Cream:

      I have to be clean shaven for work, and this means shaving up to twice a day. However, I used to get razor burn like crazy.

      I've been using this for just over a month now, and my face and neck have never felt better. I like how I don't need to use an additional aftershave balm, instead I just rub the leftover in, and I'm good.

      The only negative is that I end up needing to change blades a bit more often. That is a worth while trade off to get a better shave with no irritation to my skin...being clean shaven with a red neck isn't the best look.

      Comments about Ambrosia Shaving Cream:

      I admit it: I'm a hairy girl. I always feel nervous about people knowing, I hide my razors and avoid buying them because I feel ashamed. I've got hair on all parts of my body, my face, and a thick luxurious mane on top of my head. (You should see how hairy my dad is!) It is ESSENTIAL for me to stay clean shaven, especially on my face and neck - and Ambrosia saved my life. You know those little moisturizing strips on your razor that have a life of 1-2 shaves but make your shave feel really good? Ambrosia is like having that moisture all over, making it really easy to get a close, smooth shave every single day. Now I have no redness or god forbid, cuts, and my sensitive skin doesn't hurt on a daily basis.

      I really wish it were in a different packaging, though, the nozzle gets clogged easily. If it were in a container like your lotions (just a big bucket) it would be so much better!

      I get razor burn so easily & this product has helped to minimize this BIG TIME! I don't always get the closest shave &, yes, it does clog my razor (I use my nail brush every so often to clean it out), but my thighs have thanked me after using this stuff! Also, I sometimes don't even need moisturizer after I shave w/ this stuff! It's great for those who don't like strong smells & have very sensitive skin.

        My husband was having problems with razor burn and redness after shaving his face, so I looked on Lush's website and thought Ambrosia sounded like a good shaving lotion to try. After using it, he really likes it. He said that it gives him a close shave, there is no more redness or irritation, and his skin is a lot softer and feels nice to touch. He said it doesn't really lather, but still does a good job. He is going to start using this regularly now.

          this stuff saved my skin!!! i exfoliate first with the sea salt scrub in the shower and because i should shave every day because i have thick beard and dont i use a cleansing oil for xtra lubrication and the ambrosia on top. super smooth hydrated skin is my result! then before i moisturize after rinsing i put just a touch more ambrosia on, like a dime size if that, and it makes a great after shave balm. this is the only shave cream i use and swear by. it took no time at all to get used to not using a foam or thick lather shave product after the result.

            So sadly I hadn't been using a shaving cream on my legs...for years I think. My legs have pretty nice skin, but sometimes they were a little unhappy after shaving.

            This is a great cream for your legs. It really does make shaving easier and left my legs feeling so soft.

            I have the worst legs in the world. Not only are they dry, they are super sensitive to shaving creams, lotions and to razors. My legs get irritated, cut and nicked. But after I used Ambrosia, my legs felt completely new. It was light weight, smooth and quick to apply. I didn't nick myself, my legs didn't get irritated (even the bikini area)and no cuts! They were even smooth for the next 3 showers! I love it. The only real problem was it clogged my razor, but I'll deal

            My fiance` asked me to write this as he never has time because his job is demanding. First of all he has very sensitive skin and a pale complexion and any redness on his face is easily noticed , or it hurts him, and the bumps take a bit to heal.

            At first he was like whaaa? Because he couldn't understand a shaving cream that wouldn't lather. Then bam he say's, "I really like this stuff" he loves natural products so this makes my eco man happy.

            Since using this which, might I add I just bought his second bottle it lasts quiet a long time I order when he's half way down the bottle because he doesn't want to use anything else.

            His face is so smooth and soft and razor rash free! Thank you LUSH!

            Only downfall is I am always cleaning the sink but it's worth it!

              He say's, he doesn't care how many times he has to rinse his razor, because he's so happy no more bumps or burn. Plus the bottle lasted him 2 months that's worth it!

                  Comments about Ambrosia Shaving Cream:

                  I bought this product for my boyfriend, who at 40 has incredibly sensitive skin and trouble finding a shaving cream that won't irritate his face. He wasn't quite sure what to think of the consistency, but with the first swipe of his blade, he was in love. He gets the best, softest, closest shave and his skin feels great afterward! He also said that his razors last a lot longer than before; the other shaving creams dulled his razor and he had to use a new one every time!
                  Now, after that recommendation I had to try it on my legs as I am picky about what I use. Most shaving gels just don't glide well. I'm an Ambrosia lover too, after one use! It's so easy to use and my legs feel great! :) I would recommend this to anyone who has sensitive skin or just wants a close shave and super soft legs/face afterward!

                    I received this as a stocking stuffer for Christmas and only began using it about one week ago--specifically for my bikini/underarm area. I was hoping that this would be the cure-all for small cuts, red spots, and irritations in those areas, but it wasn't. The only plus side to Ambrosia is that it isn't half as harsh as regular shaving creams. I'm guessing that this would be best for guys with sensitive facial skin.

                    I have tried every method of getting rid of leg hair, and have trouble getting a close clean shave without some sort of rash. This does the best job so far, yet I do get a few red bumps, my skin may still be healing from all the alcohol based shave creams. This leaves a nice film that vales my skin. I am interested in trying the thicker version - Prince.

                      I gave my boyfriend this to try because he hates shaving so much because of the pain, itching and redness it causes. The next morning he sent me a text that said, "Thank you so much! I have had this problem since I was 14 and you and lush saved me."

                      I think that's pretty awesome :)

                          Our shaving creams do need to be used with a razor, and they can be used like any regular shaving cream. You will find they don't lather, so it will feel a bit like you're just putting on lotion, but don't worry- they'll help get you a silky smooth shave!
