Try one of their starter kits. I think they're only $38 for travel size preshave oil, shaving cream, and aftershave balm. If you don't like the stuff, at least you get a genuine badger brush to keep and use with other products. It's worth a try.

Same here, my wife got me on a no mineral oil kick when she sold it(arbonne) a while back, now she just reps for the discount, there shaving creme(when i get around to shaving) is great, it slows the growth

Anything by Billy Jealousy.
I also love Anthony Logistics, Art of Shaving, and Trueffit & Hill
Jack Black is a good one as well.

Could never convince myself to pay $30 for some shaving soap and aftershave lotion, but some of this stuff smells nice enough to replace cologne.

I use some King of Shaves gel for shaving and some Neutrogena lotion I get at W-M for $5. Regular soap for anything else that needs a scrubbin.

They are pricey, but they really last quite a while. I mostly use Geo F. Trumpers and Taylor's of Bond St. One tub can easily last as long as 4 months. They may still be more expensive per shave than what you could get a the local drugstore, but not nearly as bad as what the initial outlay may indicate. (And to me, the quality of the shave is at a different level compared to many of the more readily available brands, not including King of Shaves though as I've never tried that one.)

For a good shave soap try Vander Hagens, for the price of 1.50 its not bad and lasts around 2-3 months.For a cleanser I use Noxema the original in the blue jar.Also works great on sunburned skin.The aftershave by Nivea a little goes a long way.
