(White Jar) Proraso Pre & Post Cream - Green Tea and Oat - For Sensitive Skin

Usually the only way I get a "comfortable" shave is to shower first. We all know that isn't always possible. I tried different razors and various high-quality blades, leisurely washed my face with pre soap to hydrate, did everything you're "supposed to," and it was always the same. Tough whiskers, unsatisfactory first pass, almost hating to shave without a shower.
I had been using this as a post shave, and it is amazing. Soothing, cooling, five stars.
So it occured to me that Proraso pre-post is what started it all for Proraso, and I finally used some for a preshave. What a difference! Noticeably softer whiskers and better cutting action. I'm naturally skeptical of "hype" (which honestly Proraso doesn't do) but first-hand experience is proof. This stuff works. You can use it both pre and post and it is excellent for both. Forget oils, this is way more manageable.
Highly recommended.

I have used Proraso products for some time but I hadn't tried their pre-shave cream (usually used a pre-shave gel). I purchased this along with the Green and Red versions and I can say I am truly impressed. Although it doesn't go on like the gels, this really gets into the hairs and helps soften them. They recommend you put it on and wait a couple of minutes to soak in before you lather. Once it soaks in I use a scuttle and Silver Tip Badger brush (Razorock 24 from Italian Barber!) and lather up using Proraso shave cream (the same color as the pre-shave). I alternate colors and love each one.

If you are looking for a terrific pre-shave that won't break the bank, Proraso is the one for you!

I just started using this product and I really like it. But, I burn through it pretty fast, what with shaving my head. So, it works out to a lot more money than just using shaving cream, alone. It's 100 mils, , but it's full of a lot of air. Still, it is the first Proraso product I've tried that I actually liked. So, beware if you start using it and grow to like it so much that you think you can't live without it, anymore. So, now I set it aside and restrain myself from using it, because I don't want to be compelled to use it. I'm trying to think of a way to describe it like an addiction, even though it is not an addiction.

I was expecting this one to have no menthol, but it does have some menthol. I think just less menthol than the Proraso Green pre-shave cream. So, you can still feel it.

The first products I bought were the proraso white jar,this is it the most classic but modern scent and performance is exceptional, if you are just starting out,or on a budget, maybe don't need to buy but one line, keep it simple, this is essential and it
will provide consistent results.

It does help for sure, but; if absolute minimum razor burn on a very sensitive neck is the goal, PS oil and butter work notably better. I use PS oil in a roller ball applicator for a no mess what-so-ever "best protection" solution.

The tiny jar won't last long. Large jars and off brands are very good options if you are dead set on a PS cream.
