Proraso Shaving Cream Tube - Refreshing

This is a shaving cream, not a foam – and it’s brilliant. Just a small amount, rubbed in with fingers, gives a slick, menthol-laced shave with zero drag or irritation. It’s now my go-to with the Gillette Labs razor, and it leaves my skin cool and soft afterwards. The scent is classic barbershop – clean, fresh, old-school – and the metal tube is a nice touch. Easier to squeeze out every last bit and recyclable, too. Heads-up: It doesn’t lather. That’s not a flaw – it’s meant to stay creamy for closer, smoother contact. Pro tip: You’ll use less than you think, and it’ll last. Ideal if you want a quick shave with no faffing around.

Easily the best shaving cream I have found with its signature scent. Typical of the Italians to come up with the best!

Amazing performer and by far the best value for money cream and I've tried a few. Ridiculously easy to lather up and provides a thick, slick cushion (not as slick as poly soap but for a cream quite slick). It feels quite refreshing throughout the whole shave. I don't particularly like the scent but I don't hate it either and I guess the mint/eucalyptus combo helps get the refreshing feeling on your face aside from the scent. The pharmacy-like scent wears out after 5-10 minutes and leaves the lightest hint of mint, so by the time you are ready for work you're good to go without eradicating unsuspecting civilians on their way to work. On the first use I got by far the closest shave i've gotten with a cream without going against the grain. The freshness feeling also lasts a couple of hours, which helps you wake up if you're an early bird. Overall? Massive legacy, max performance, cheap, quick&easy, unsurpassed freshness. Doesn't feel luxurious and is solely focused on performance, which is precisely why it is by far the best everyday performer for many people who want a quick morning shave. There is no excuse for not getting one if you're after performance.

A very traditional shaving cream. The cream whips up very well with a bowl or face lather with both badger and synthetic brushes. Personally I prefer the scent of the Red Prorasso, but the 'green' is very good at providing a cool, refreshing shave.

Refreshing and relaxing

I thought this product was quite expensive for what it was, and the amount in the jar, but that all changed when i used it for the first time. It makes the shave a bit slicker when used before you put your shave cream/ soap on your face, but it really comes into its own as a post shave balm. I suffer razor burn not matter how careful i shave, and have tried countless after shave balms with limited success. When i applied this to my face after my shave, there was a weird sort of tingling feeling, which was very good, and you could tell it was doing something good to your skin. After a few minutes, this sensation stopped, i checked my face in the mirror, and to my surprise there was no redness on my face or neck, no post shave irritation, and my skin felt great. I have sensitive and dry skin, but this cream is definitely the best i have tried, and well worth every penny. I also have to say you only need a very small amount, and with this in mind, is probably cheaper in the long run than a cheaper balm. This will last for months using every day. When you massage it in your face as a post shave balm, it will take about a minute to soak in, but worth it with the results you get. Worth a buy, and if it works as goog for you as it has for me, you wont regret buying it.

Leaves a nice clean shave and smells good.

I fancied a change and thought I would treat myself, but this is a very traditional product which I have found to be less comfortable than the modern gels and I won’t buy it again. Sorry, but that’s how it was for me.

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 amazon 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.

He pasado de las espumas de afeitar en spray al jabón con brocha y, finalmente, a esta crema de afeitar Proraso verde, que combina comodidad y calidad profesional. En mi vídeo se aprecia cómo, con aprox. 1,5 cm de crema y una brocha, genero una espuma densa y homogénea. El eucalipto y el mentol proporcionan un frescor tonificante que se nota desde la primera pasada, dejando la piel suave y menos irritada incluso en afeitados diarios. Su aroma clásico y limpio completa una experiencia muy agradable. El tubo de 150 ml cunde muchísimo, por lo que la relación calidad-precio es excelente. Ideal para quienes buscan un afeitado suave, fresco y con el toque tradicional de barbero, pero con la practicidad de una crema moderna.

The Proraso pre-shave cream enhances the shaving experience, making it smooth and enjoyable.

Auf meiner ständigen Suche nach einer Rasiercreme, die meiner empfindlichen Haut gerecht wird, bin ich auf die grüne Proraso Rasiercreme gestoßen. In dieser Bewertung teile ich meine persönlichen Erfahrungen mit, wie das Produkt in den für mich wichtigen Bereichen abschneidet. Hautverträglichkeit: Trotz meiner empfindlichen Haut hatte ich keine Probleme oder Irritationen nach der Verwendung der Proraso Rasiercreme. Es scheint, als würde das enthaltene kühlende Menthol sogar dazu beitragen, Irritationen zu reduzieren. Ein großer Pluspunkt für alle mit sensibler Haut. Geruch: Der frische Geruch der Creme ist nicht zu aufdringlich und liegt angenehm in der Nase wärend der Rasur. Es verleiht dem Rasiererlebnis eine zusätzliche Wohlfühldimension, welche zum entspannen einläd. Pflegeeigenschaften: Die Leichtigkeit des Aufschäumens und der resultierende dicke, fluffige Schaum schützen das Gesicht während der Rasur optimal. Dies trägt nicht nur zum Komfort bei, sondern macht die Rasur auch effektiver und hautschonender.Durchgänge gegen den Strich sind also kein Problem mit diesem Produkt Versand: Die Lieferung erfolgte schnell zur Packstation. Leider kam die Verpackung beschädigt an. Dies war jedoch dank des kundenfreundlichen Services kein großes Problem, da ich mein Geld zurückerhielt, ohne das Produkt zurücksenden zu müssen. Ich nutzte die Gelegenheit, die Creme dennoch zu verwenden, bevor ich sie entsorge. Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis: Bei einem Preis von nur fünf Euro kann man hier wirklich nichts falsch machen. Die Qualität und Leistung dieser Rasiercreme übertreffen in meinen Augen bei Weitem den bescheidenen Preis. Es ist ein tolles Angebot, das sowohl die Brieftasche schont als auch ein erstklassiges Rasierergebnis auf dem Niveau teurer Konkurenz die gerne bis zu 50 Euro fordert liefert. Fazit: Trotz der kleinen Unannehmlichkeit mit der Verpackung überzeugt die Proraso Rasiercreme auf ganzer Linie. Die Kombination aus hautfreundlichen Inhaltsstoffen, angenehmem Geruch, effektiver Rasur und einem unschlagbaren Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis macht sie zu meiner ersten Wahl. Ich werde definitiv bei Proraso bleiben und kann es jedem empfehlen, der Wert auf eine qualitativ hochwertige Rasur legt. Volle 5 von 5 Sterne.

A little goes a long way and it smells great.
