ProrasoSensitive Shaving Cream for Men

My review will be of interest to you if one of the following is true:* You're bald* Shaving causes your skin to bruise or burn* You have ingrown hairs on your face or head* You are African-American or some other course hair typeI have a goatee and a bald head. Finding the right shaving cream and razor is extremely important. Unfortunately, doing so can be a life journey! lolI recently found myself in a Art of Shaving, buying a new traditional safety razor (which by the way, was one of the best decisions of my life!) but I couldn't justify the prices they charge for their shaving creams. I've found all those pseudo-luxury brands from Target's and similar stores to be terrible. They smell great, but they don't condition the face or scalp hairs. Which means the shave can hurt, leave bruises or cuts and makes you go through razors quicker.Prorsaso answers this issues. It lathers perfectly, quickly softens and conditions the hair and offers a very close shave - when paired with the right razor.Close shaves can create more problems for those of us with sensitive skin or ingrown hairs (especially on your head!). I have found that shaving with Proraso that in less than 4 shaves, you will find ingrown hairs are noticeably lessened, and there is virtually no bruising shortly after your shave. If you have course or curly hair, or you're African-American, this will be a relief. As certain hair types are just harder to cut without the proper shaving cream. The easiest way to determine if this shaving cream offers you a closer shave without irritating your skin is to use your old cream, shave and apply alcohol to your shave area afterwards (like a barber would). Do the same with Proraso and gauge which experience stings more. I guarantee you that Proraso is going to sting less and have you feeling more confident about your appearance.I can't say how easier it is to shave my head using Proraso. Less irritation. Less leftover hair. Less ingrown hairs. Again, remember I am coupling this shaving cream with a traditional safety razor. I think that is important to note.Proraso smells "unique". In a really great way. It a scent I've never known and I enjoy it quick a bit. It blends well with soaps, after shaves and colognes. It's subtle and refreshing.My face and head look better after just a week or so of use. Remarkable.

Consistency of the cream was fine, not separated or runny.Used about an inch of cream in my palm, loaded onto the brush directly and it formed a nice lather. Nice smooth shave, no irritation and pleasant smell.I like the tube for travel, no bowl necessary.Would definitely buy again.

This is the best shaving cream I’ve ever used. I get a great shave every time. Very slick and smells great.

Excellent cream. Don't get nicks or cuts with this along with Harry's razor blades. Just good a smooth and easy to shave.

I truly enjoy using this product! I specifically purchased the sensitive skin formula because I have the tendency to press down too hard and irritate my neck and jawline area. The form factor is very nice, slightly larger than a tube of toothpaste, and the tubing itself is a high grade and feels very durable. One word of caution is that the screw-top, at least in my case, broke. The threading inside the plastic cap seems to just be a ring that can be snapped apart from the cap itself. As a result, the ring with the threading is attached to the tube, the cap is sitting on my counter top, and depending on how long I go between shaves, the shaving cream which is exposed to the air dries to become a dense mass with the consistency of refrigerated butter. I will probably try unscrewing the plastic piece with pliers and crazy gluing it back to the cap at some point. Until then, I will just need to store the dense clumps of shaving cream in a small jam jar so they don't end up in the garbage.When creating a lather, I merely squeeze a dab (about the size of a lima bean) onto my badger brush that has soaked and been shaken to remove a majority of the water. From there, I just build the lather by brushing across my face. The shaving cream begins to spread to the rest of the brush and goes from a sudsy lather to a richer, fuller lather that coats the skin without gunking up the razor blade. The scent is very fresh! The green tea cuts through very well and I am usually tempted to not put on aftershave or moisturizer simply because of how pleasant the lather smells.

Absolutely love this! Works great and creates a nice lather. If you receive a tube with grainy or sandy texture, it was a bad batch from the manufacturer. I returned it for a full refund and purchased again. been using this for over a year now and previously used Barbasol. Make the change now for a smoother shave and less dry skin.
