Bought this product because I have used it in the past, and the shave gel is very good. However, I have now had a couple of cans where there wasn't any propellant. The gel may be great, but if you can't get it out of the can, it won't do you much good.

My husband has used this brand of shave gel for the past 3 years. We love love the smell and it helps with his sensitive skin. The only down side we have found was the last can we bought expelled the entire can from the the back of the button instead of the spout after the second use! what a mess!!!

Every fourth bottle does not work. Tried washing in warm water, etc - nothing. Don't waste your money.

I have not had any of the problems that others have described here. It seems to be a great product to me! I like the smell and the aloe for my skin.

The problem I encountered is with the nozzle on the can and not the product in the can. For every shave I got out of the can I lost a shave because of the leakage due to the poor nozzle. The product is expensive and not worth the waste. Unfortunately, I purchased a three can package at Costco. Now I'm stuck with leakers and no chance of a refund.

NO Gel - can is still 3/4 full. This will be my last purchase of any Gillette product. If they can't get a can of shave gel right they simply do not need my business. Quality control has really taken a back seat with this, and I refuse to hold the end retailer responsible. One of my Fusion razors has been disposed of with the second on it's way as soon as I run out of blades. Back to Schick!!!!

Love the product, but the can needs a little rework. Have had two can that for lack of a better term errupted on me. Both cans were about half full when the gel just poured out of the top of the can.

Love this gel but the last 3 cans I've purchased the gel just pours out. When this happens I've tried lifting the tab to see if it stops it thinking the tab sticks but nothing helps. A few other cans I've purchased during the past few months run out of propellant. Hopefully the problems can be fixed with the containers! Like I said I really love this gel so would hate to start using something else!!

I have used your products for years. I recently purchased a three pack shaveing gel, which also came with a fusion razor, and used the first can. Right from the start the gel had difficulty coming out of the can. I was able to get enough out for several days but it took forever. I tried clean the nozzle with warm water but it has not helped. The can has about two thirds left, and stopped working. I started the second can and it works fine. I made the purchase at Costco, where i also buy the Fusion 16 pack blades.

The dispenser top (or the propellant) is unreliable. This is the 2nd time I have bought a can which stopped working within 2 weeks with plenty of shave gel left. The first time I thought it was a fluke so gave it another try, bad decision.

Useless cap design. I guarantee you will do this on this product and ANY product that uses the same cap design. The problem is that the cap is rounded and smooth and TIGHT to the plastic nozzle base that sits on the top of the can. When the cap gets wet, especially if you have soap on your hands, you can't just twist or easily get the cap off. So, like I've done before, I have to 'push' the cap off...and the cap is so tight that it takes the plastic nozzle base and nozzle with it, so now the nozzle is still in the cap. So, I have to extract the nozzle base and try to 'push' the nozzle base and nozzle back on. This morning, on a brand new can, about a foot of bright blue shaving gel shot out of nozzle as I tried to push it back on and landed on the clothes I had laid out. Can't wear those to work now. Furthermore, the plastic plunger on the nozzle broke off, leaving me with nothing stable to push down on the can stem with. I tried to push the nozzle back on and continued to get gel out of the nozzle but the nozzle would not stay on the stem. I got so angry I threw the whole thing away. What a mess. They need to either come with a different GRIPPABLE cap design or make it a twist off or something that does not rip the nozzle and nozzle base with it. This is now the 2nd in a row I have had to throw away because of the same issues. I might as well light my money on fire.

I bought 10 of the cans and 3 of the cans leaked! Within the past year I surmise that I have lost a total of at least 6 cans of this shaving gel because of the can leaking. The first three, I never said anything about but when it started happening again and all from the same purchase, something is wrong with the can or product. The other issue that has happened to me within the past year is when I take the clear plastic cap or cover off for the first time; the grey piece where the gel comes out is gone or vanished. And no the nozzle was not stuck on the inside of the clear plastic cover.

Just recently purchased two cans of the Gillette Skin Gel. After a few uses both cans starting foaming up after pushing the dispenser button. Much of the shave gel went on the sides of the can and the counter. Not only was there a mess, but I was only able to use about a 1/4 of each can before throwing them out.

It seams that there is a manufacturing problem. Too much product is left in the can with no pressure to get it out. My last can only lasted 4 shaves! To make matters worse this web site doesn't provide an option to contact the company. After many years of being a loyal customer, I'm DONE!

My husband has used these products for years. I recently bought a bottle that advertised 20% more, but the propellant ran out before the shaving gel did. The bottle has plenty of gel in it, but it will not come out. Very disappointing.

I too tried the product and would have enjoyed it had the packing not been such an utter failure. I would never buy this product again. The can was good for only 2 uses. I had to throw a full can out which is even more annoying as it's more expensive than the basic gel (with which I have never had a problem).

I have used your products for over 50 years and sadly this is probably the end. The last 2 cans I purchased were extremely poor in performance. I love your gel but when it will not come out of the can it is not worth it. One can took about 5 minutes to get enough gel for a shave. I thought okay one is not bad, so I bought another can. It takes even longer to get enough gel to shave with. So now I am using a competors product.

I've had two cans in a row stop working before the product was gone. The first can was barely half gone. The second was a little more than half but left me stranded out of town in a hotel 45 minutes before a meeting with nothing but to shave with but bar soap. Fool me once shame on you, fool my twice shame on me. It's too bad because the product is nice when the can actually works.

This was my 1st (and last) purchase of this product. The can just quit working after only using for a few weeks. It has well over 3/4 of the product left, but no way to get it out. I've seen similar comments, so think it may be a common problem. I'd request a refund, but of course no longer have a receipt.
