  • Patent number: 9877912
    Abstract: Disclosed is a shaving preparation imparting durable lubricity. The shaving preparation has one or more silicone polyethers and one or more water-soluble polymers that associate with the one or more silicone polyethers in aqueous solution. The lubricity of the shaving preparation can be reactivated by wetting the skin after shaving without applying an additional amount of the shaving preparation. Also disclosed is a method for using the shaving preparation.
