Rise shaving cream

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rise shaving cream, introduced by Carter-Wallace in 1949, was the first to be sold in an aerosol can.[1] In 1963 the Federal Trade Commission charged Carter-Wallace with false advertising when a television commercial for Rise used "a phony substance resembling shaving cream."[2]
