What is Creams?
Answer- Creams are thought of as ointments but usually contain a water
soluble base due to which they can be easily removed from the skin.

the skin.
What is shaving ?
Answer- Shaving is the removal of hair, by using a razor or any other kind
of bladed implement, to slice it down to the level of the skin.

6. Shaving cream is applied to the skin to facilitate
removal of hair. Shaving cream softens and
moistens the skin and the hair, thus making
shaving more comfortable and contributing to
smoother skin.
7. Shaving Cream:Shaving Cream:
Shaving Cream achieve three effects: lubricate the
cutting process; swell keratin and desensitize skin.
Shaving creams commonly consist of an emulsion of
oils, soaps or surfactants and water.
Shaving cream that are in tubes are commonly used
with a shaving brush to produce a rich lather.

9. History:History:
A rudimentary form of shaving cream was documented in
Sumer around3000 BC. This substance combined wood
alkali and animal fat and was applied to a beard as a
shaving preparation.
Until the early 20th century, bars or sticks of hard shaving
soap were used. Later, tubes containing compounds of oils
and soft soap were sold. Newer creams introduced in the
1940s neither produced lather nor required brushes, often
referred to as brushless creams.
10. History:History:
Modern commercial creams are often sold in spray cans,
but can also be purchased in tubs or tubes.
Shaving creams in a can are commonly dispensed as a
foam or a gel.
Creams that are in tubes or tubs are commonly used with a
shaving brush to produce a rich lather (most often used in
wet shaving).
12. Shaving Soaps:Shaving Soaps:
Shaving soap typically refers to a hard soap that is whipped
into a lather using a shaving brush.
Combination of coconut oil soaps & palm oil soaps for quick
& stable lathering.
Within each there is a combination of potassium & sodium
soaps to get quick lathering & maintain the body of soap.
Supper fatting agents & talc are also employed.
recent innovation lies in the use of haemostatic materials .
13.
14. Shaving PowdersShaving Powders::
Popular with the barbers.
Powder easily dispensed into shaving mug prior to
addition of water and production of lather using shaving
brush.
Product claimed to more sanitary because fresh
quantity of powder was used every time.
15.
16. Shaving SticksShaving Sticks::
Generally not popular among customers but it exist
Formulation logic is same as that of soap but this
one is more enriched in soaps.
Once formulation existed in 1939 with alkali
peroxide as an ingredients.
17.
18. Lather Shaving Cream:Lather Shaving Cream:
Have same ingredients as that of soap with
inclusion of greater amount of water to give creamy
consistency.
Playing with the ratio of Na/K soaps not only affect
lather but also consistency and stability of cream.
Supper fatting agents and borax are added to
maintain stability.
19. Brushless Shaving Cream:Brushless Shaving Cream:
Not meant to produce foam
It is o/w emulsion.
Comfortable shave is because of greater lubricating
ability and subsequent reduction in razor pull or drag.
Leaves face with thin coating of oil.
Wetting agents are employed to improve beard
softening.

21. Raw Materials:Raw Materials:
A standard recipe contains approximately
i. Aqua/water
ii. Stearic Acid,
iii. Triethanolamine,
iv. Lanolin,
v. Glycerin,
vi. Polyoxyethylene sorbitan monostearate,
vii. Laureth 23,
viii. Lauryl Sulfate,
ix. Waxes and cocamides.
x. Methyl paraben
xi. Ethyl paraben
22. Raw Materials:Raw Materials:
Two major ingredients in this formula are common in many of
today's preparations.
Stearic acid is one of the main ingredients in soap making, and
triethanolamine is a surfactant, which does the job of soap.
Lanolin and polyoxyethylene sorbitan monostearate are both
emulsifiers which hold water to the skin,
While glycerin, a solvent and an emollient, renders skin softer
and more supple.
23. Raw Materials:Raw Materials:
Common substitutes for the third, fourth, and fifth ingredients
listed above include laureth 23 and lauryl sulfate are both
sudsing and foaming agents.
Waxes and cocamides which cleanse and aid foaming.
Most ingredients are powdered or flaked, although lanolin,
lanolin derivatives, and cocamides are liquids.
24. Raw Materials:Raw Materials:
The differences between one brand of shaving cream and
another amount to adjustments in the proportions of
ingredients and in the processing method and choice of
ingredients such as emulsifiers or perfumes. Also important
is the choice of aerosol propellant. Some mixtures contain
more than one propellant; most common are butane,
isobutane and propane.
25. The Manufacturing Process:The Manufacturing Process:
The modern manufacture of shaving cream is a carefully controlled
process. There are two main phases to the manufacturing
process.
1. In the first phase, the fatty or oily portions of the formula—stearic
acid, lanolin, and polyoxyethylene sorbitan monostearate—are
heated in a jacketed kettle to a temperature of approximately 179
to 188°F (80 to 85°C) for 40 minutes.
2. Then the steam is released from the outer container of the kettle,
and the mixture is allowed to cool.
26. The Manufacturing Process:The Manufacturing Process:
3. The second phase of manufacture begins when the mixture has
cooled to about 152°F (65°C). Most of the remaining ingredients
—water, glycerin and triethanolamine—are added now, and
mixing continues for approximately 40 minutes.
4. When the mixture reaches a temperature of 125 to 134°F
(50 to 55°C), preservatives and perfumes or other scents can
be added. Because perfumes consist primarily of highly
volatile oils, they would evaporate if added when the blend
was still warm.
27. The Manufacturing Process:The Manufacturing Process:
5. The mixture, still being stirred, is allowed to cool
further, until it reaches a temperature of 89°F (30°C).
6. Then the mixture is ready for filling and sealing.
28.
29. Quality Control:Quality Control:
o Today's soaps, shaving creams, and lotions are all
manufactured under strict quality control, and regulated by
various federal agencies including the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA).
o Batches of shaving cream are examined and analyzed both
at the manufacturing site and in the laboratory. Individual
containers of shaving preparations are coded so that a
manufacturer knows exactly which batch any given can or
tube came from, and can identify its distribution history.
30. Quality Control:Quality Control:
o A manufacturer of shaving cream needs to be certain that
each batch meets quality standards. Among the things
tested for are pH value (the acidity or alkalinity of the
product). The pH value of shaving cream is 8 to 9.
o Water quality must also be checked carefully. Most
manufacturers make sure the water they use is pure by
exposing the water to ultraviolet light or using distilled water.
Having a microbiologist on site to test the water and the final
product is common in the industry.
31. Criteria:Criteria:
Must have well lubricant properties, skin protection
against razor.
Must have hydrating properties and softening
properties.
Should be smooth and non-dumpy.
Must be well tolerated and should be non-irritant.
Must have good wetting properties & resistance to
rapid drying.
32. Criteria:Criteria:
Rapid softening of beard & sufficient viscosity to
hold & should not change viscosity according to
temperature.
Easy application, easy spread.
Small quantity should produce desired lather.
Should be non-corrosive.
Must be economical.
33. AApplication:pplication:
We all know that shaving cream can be very useful for aiding in
unwanted hair maintenance. However, it also has many excellent
uses for cleaning many things around the house as well. Just check
