A milder Proraso?

[HYPEractive]

Gentlemen,

I'm just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a Eucalyptus & Menthol soap that is just a little milder than Proraso. I do enjoy Proraso, and it's pretty invigorating, but since I'm still learning my shaving method, it tends not feel too great after a nick or two (or three).

Thank you all in advance,

You could always try Santa Maria Novella

I find that Omega is very close but not as strong as Proraso...

I don't think this is much milder (if at all) than Proraso.

What about Ingrams Menthol?

Or you could superlather with a soap like VDH or Williams and the Proraso. That way it cuts down on the effects on Proraso just a bit. You may have to experiment a bit to get the proportions right but this way you get to keep the Proraso.

I have never tried it but I know Vintage Blades carries Dovo shaving cream made with Eucalyptus Oil & Mint Oil, & its paraben free

I picked up the Dovo Shaving Cream from Jim at Vintage Blades. It is a superior product in everyway..........so slick and cushiony. It's really a luxury shave cream. The scent though not overpowering is so pleasant and understated. I can' imagine anyone would be disappointed with this cream. Jim mentioned it's the one he suggests for some of his clients who use a straightedge. I've always found his advice to be straight on.

Prorasso in the red tube. If you can find it.
