Review: This is a great cream. Little Stinky. - A while back, frustrated by razor burn and ingrown hairs, I took to the internet to find a solution. I had a heavy beard, with skin that was dry and sensitive. I hated shaving, my face was read, burning and bleeding when I was done shaving, and I couldn't use an expensive blade for more than a week. One thing I was introduced to was wetshaving. Wetshaving can best be described as "old time" shaving. Wetshaving is far superior to the shaving technique that most men use today, and has greatly improved my shaving experience, and I don't dread shaving like I used to. Wetshaving soon became the search for the perfect shave. Trying to get a balance between a smooth well groomed face, and no irritation. In fact, as many can attest, it soon became an obsession. Over the last few years I have tried dozens of different razors, shaving creams, pre-shave oils,shaving bowls, badger brushes, aftershave balms and lotions, to find the perfect shave. I have bought everything from the highest end shaving creams at thirty or forty dollars a jar, to five dollar shave soaps. Having said all of that, Proraso is my favorite cream of all. It is an Italian produced cream that is very well respected by those who are "shaving gourmets." The one thing that you must know about Proraso is it has menthol, and eucalyptus, and lots of it. It has been described as having a cooling or even bracing sensation, so much so that some guys don't like to use it in the winter. It also has a very strong and unique smell. Some say it smells medicinal, I think it smells like an Italian sewer to be honest. So why do I think it is the best cream? Well, 1st it is a great value for the money. While it may look expensive, when using a brush, you only need an almond sized amount in your bowl for a clean shave. So a tube will last you 3 months easy. It is essentially no more expensive than the dried out gunk they sell in aerosol cans at your local drugstore and yet it performs as well as something 3x's the price. Second, it produces a rich lather that has a slickness to it, which I believe is one of the most important parts of a good shave. A slick shaving cream means less drag from the razor. Third, it is great for guys like me who have thick beards. Some prefer a lighter lather, but I have found that with a thick beard you need all the protection you can get. Fourth, it comes in a tube, which I prefer to a shaving soap (soaps dry out my face) and to tubs. I travel a lot and I find it easier to travel with a tube then with a tub, just fits in my Dop bag better for some reason. Also, I have found that creams you get in a tube (and Proraso especially) can still give you a good shave without a brush.Some other brands say they will give you a good shave with or without a brush, but not true in my experience. I don't take my brush with me when I travel, and the fact that I can still get a good lather while traveling is a big plus. Fifth, I like the cooling (bracing effect) that I described earlier. If you are like me and ingrown hairs and razor burn are your main worries, washing off your face with cold water after you shave is nice, kind of like putting an ice pack on an inflamed knee, it dulls the irritation. Finally, it works great with the other products in the line. I have never liked pre-shave oils because, while they do protect the face, they make it harder to apply shaving cream and gunk up your razor. However, with the Proraso preshave it is different. It is not an oil, but a paste, so it seems to come off easier (however, take it easy with the preshave, put on too much and it will actually produce a burning sensation from all the menthol). Also, I really like the Proraso aftershave, not too thick not too thin.Put them all together and you can get a very good shave. If you don't want to spend the money on the Proraso aftershave, the Nivea Sensitive Balm is great too and half the price and available at most drug stores. One thing that I must mention is that Proraso is sold in America as Bigelow Shaving Cream. When I bought a bottle from here I was disapointed that when it arrived from the seller (LCI) it was damaged and unusable.I use desertcart for the convenience, I don't have time to box stuff up and ship it back. So I went to the store that carries this product, and found that they had a buy 2 get 1 free sale. So I tossed this one, and just got 3 of the Bigelow creams (exact same ingredients) for 20 bucks plus tax. Now I am set for the next few months.
Review: After one shave I'm hooked! - Never have I used a shaving cream so moisturizing, soothing and cooling as this and I've tried several - Edge, Barbasol, Noxzema, Aramis, Lab Series, Art of Shaving, Anthony Logistics for Men, Kiehls... There's an expensive English one with a lime scent I remember using but I can't remember its name. With the exception of the first three products I mentioned and Kiehl, the remainder retail for at least 50% more than the Proraso sells for on desertcart and none of any of the shaving creams I mentioned can begin to hold a candle to it. I put what amounted to three dabs, each about the size of a lima bean, on my face - one on my left cheek, one on my right cheek, and one on my chin. I then took my brand new Omega Stripey 100% Pure Badger Shaving Brush with Stand - Made in Italy - FREE SHIP! that I received one or two days prior to receiving the Proraso - which, by the way, did not lose one hair on its maiden voyage around my face - and worked the three small dabs into a smooth, cool, refreshing, moist lather that completely covered my face and neck. The result was the smoothest, closest shave I've ever had. After two days of not shaving, my face feels like it did after not shaving for one day using the other creams I mentioned. Another thing I like about this shaving cream is that it doesn't become caked between the blades like the more expensive products did, especially the Kiehl, so my razor is much easier to clean. I told my friends about my new find and told them that the Proraso only cost me $10. They just laughed and told me they used Edge. Never mind that this tube will probably last me more than a year; that it honestly moisturizes my beard and keeps it moist, unlike commercial products; AND that the cream does not dry out if it sits on my face for more than a couple of minutes. They can keep their Edge and their cartridge razors. The only downside is that I usually travel quite a bit for business and can only carry small amounts of toiletries. I haven't yet found a smaller tube of Proraso that I can carry on-board in my suitcase. For what it's worth, here's a little background information about my beard and face to possibly provide a frame of reference for whomever may read this: I don't have a thick beard and it doesn't grow quickly, but my beard is tough and my skin is sensitive; I can grow a full beard but it takes a while for it to fill in, as opposed to some guys that can grow a full beard in a few days to a week... or even a couple of weeks. Since my beard's mostly grey now, I could get away with shaving every other day before I used Proraso because there's much less contrast between my face and my beard than there was when my hair was dark. With Proraso, though, I can actually shave every two days without looking like Boxcar Willie. To close, I've wet-shaved for years (except for a brief dalliance with a Panasonic electric razor several years ago) and I currently alternate between a double-blade and a triple-blade Gillette razor. I plan to purchase a high-quality, single-blade safety razor in the near future, after I burn though my current stock of cartridge blades.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the proper way to apply this? Or rather, do I need a brush/bowl to put this on?**
A: Use a brush and bowl - squeeze just 1-2 cm into the bowl, moisten the brush with warm water, then stir the cream into a lather for 1/2-1 minute before applying with the brush. Save some for your second pass.

**Q: Because of the oil content, does this cause pimples? Anyone have that experience?**
A: The oil is emulsified, as it is in soaps. Ever see Fight Club? All soaps are rendered from some type of lipid (fat or oil), and the process of making the soap changes the oil. Although this is a shaving "cream," it is essentially a soft soap. So no, the oils are very different when they are in the form of a soap and will not cause acne.

**Q: Is the cream suppose to be runny when it comes out of the tube? I have not had any luck bringing it to a lather with a Omega Synthetic shaving brush in a bowl. (I have watched the YouTube video's)**
A: Mine isn't runny.  It comes out kind of like a whipped cream texture, maybe a little thicker and heavier.  It isn't thick like toothpaste but it definitely isn't runny.  It should be like you would expect a cream to be.  Never used synthetic shaving brush, just badger hair and it works very well.

**Q: Is this shaving cream still good to buy if your using an ordianry Mach 3 razor?**
A: Proraso "Green," as it's known, is a smooth, creamy, cooling cream that can be used with any wet-shaving razor. I would heartily recommend application with a brush, in order to build a good, protective lather, but it can be applied by hand if necessary.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Oh, the LATHER!!! Unbeatable!
*by J***I on December 8, 2023*

I honestly haven't found ANYTHING that lathers as nicely and smoothly as Proraso! I orginally ordered it with my straight razor and have been using it for years. Nothing can touch the silky smoothness of the lather this creates. I've tried soaps, creams, foams, etc. Side note: Get yourself a badger hair shaving brush to apply this shaving cream. You can find them as cheap as $1, but you'd probably get a genuine one for $15? or more. I've had mine for 20 yrs, so they are an investment like the straight razor. A badger hair brush absorbs the water and allows for a beautiful lather to form. When you apply the foam to your skin, it further lathers, spreads the shave cream, and exfoliates your skin. This makes a very nice lubricated surface for your razer whether it's a straight razor or multi-blade. Warm your skin, stretch it out and you'll get an incredible shave without nicking or razor burn! It washes away nicely leaving your skin feeling smooth and clean. The Menthol effect can be nice on your beard, but I wouldn't recommend it for your nethers! I believe it's also available in Sandalwood - which has a very nice smell. You won't believe how close of a shave you can get! And you'll NEVER use that goopy foam-in-a-can again!!! Give this stuff a try - you won't regret it!
