A post-foaming shave gel product comprising:
- a container having a first chamber and second chamber and at least one dispensing valve for dispensing the contents of said chambers;
- an oxidant component in the first chamber comprising a first shave gel base and about 2% to about 10% of an oxidizing agent;
- a reductant component in the second chamber comprising a second shave gel base and about 2% to about 10% of a reducing agent;
- the first shave gel base and the second shave gel base each independently comprising an oil-in-water emulsion including, by weight, about 55% to about 90% water, about 3% to about 20% of a water-dispersible surface active agent capable of forming a lather, and about 1% to about 6% of a volatile self-foaming agent;
- and
- the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent being selected and being present in such proportion to provide an exothermic reaction upon mixing of the oxidant component and the reductant component during use of the shaving composition.
