Loin d'être impropre, cette expression a été délaissée au profit de crème à raser dans la "Industrial Commodity Classification". C' est ainsi que nous avons traduit "shaving cream, lather" par "crème à raser, en mousse, par opposition aux autres " shaving creams" (aérosol, sans blaireau, etc.). 2, record 2, French, - cr%C3%A8me%20%C3%A0%20raser
