For what it's worth I use a double-edge safety razors, normally an old Gillette red-tip. A shave takes me 5 minutes at most. No brushes, no creams, no gels, or this or that..... just hot water, shave oil and the razor. Done.
To shave my head with safety razor and Personna blades.
The bottle?
For me, it came in a pump bottle (differs from product image) which makes it easy to keep track of how much your dispensing.
The pump locks so it is also good to traveling with.
How does it perform?
Great. It can get you as close a shave as Shave Secret shaving oil - the caveat is that you have to use more American Crew oil because it's a little less viscous. But you get more oil for your dollar so I think American Crew comes out ahead, but only slightly. It's about 5mL per dollar (American Crew @ 50mL/$9.83) vs 2mL per dollar (Shave Secret @ 18.75mL/$9.38) and I probably use about 2x more American Crew than I would Shave Secret.
After the shave, American Crew will rinse off a lot easier which is good if you like applying an after shave. Shave Secret, on the other hand, leaves the scalp with a very thin coat (which works great for keeping scalp moisturized without a disgusting oil shine) and Shave Secret actually recommends not applying an after shave. Shave Secret does smell nicer, but American Crew does have a pleasant and neutral kind of smell (although it does taste much worse than Shave Secret so try and avoid it getting near your mouth and eyes).
Conclusion?
I can get a very close shave but it does seem to take an extra stroke or two in some areas when compared to Shave Secret. My recommendation is to try it for yourself. I personally like the American Crew more than Shave Secret - mostly because I like to apply the oil liberally and doing that with Shave Secret is an anti-pattern and a $ waste. Plus you can get a little lather with American Crew; Shave Secret doesn't really lather.
