Item Description
I have - or like many guys here on B&B thought I had - sensitive skin. Turns out that I was just abusing my face with a disposable razor
The Proraso White was the second soap I bought when I started DE shaving a while back.
The soap looks and feels more like a very heavy, thick shaving cream.
It's easy to load a brush with the soap, and the lather is pretty good. It seems it needs a slightly different technique from a triple milled soap, a glycerine soap or a cream like Trumpers.
I am still on the learning curve with this one...
I have yet to try the regular Proraso, as I don't like a strong menthol / eucalyptus scent. The Proraso White has a mild, green kind of smell, that is a bit odd out of the jar, but after the shave the scent seems to change a bit, and I really like it.
As for value, its not great - $10 for a tub (canada) but it's a soap I'll keep using.
