500 ml Proraso

[HUF]

I have recently bought 500 ml plastic tube of Proraso cream. I had a 150 ml one and liked it alot. Unfortunately, the consistency of the cream in the big tube is different. It takes about twice the amount of cream in a small tube for a three pass shave.

Good to know. I had considered purchasing this since I love the small green tube but loved the look of the metal tube too much to take the plunge. Glad to hear that I made the right choice.

Some say it is the new formula that makes a difference consistency-wise.

Oh yeah!

Oh yeah!

Have you noticed any difference in lather productivity between the old and new formula?

No need for something so big that will go bad before you finish it or prevent you from expanding into other brands and those yet to come.

I wonder if the packaging is a factor. I have a 150 ml tube and it is metal. The 500 ml tube you have looks like it's made of plastic. Just a thought.

I wish this stuff smelled like the old formula.

Yes the 500 ml tube is plastic. I am afraid the new formula is just too fluid regardless of packaging.

I am in the minority, I think, but I preferred the previous formula's scent and performance.

+1.

I've tried the new formula in both the metal tube and the large colostomy bag and frankly I can't find a difference. I did prefer the old formula, but it's not really a big deal...
