Proraso in summer.

[blary54]

Is there really anything more refreshing then a cool shower and shave with Proraso on a hot summer day?!

I had to mow a rather large lawn on a 90+ degree day. An excellent way to cool down.

Very refreshing. I use Proraso (C.O. Bigelow) year round.

I had one of these shaves yesterday and I agree... awesome feeling. It's the comfort-food equivalent in wet shaving (if that makes any sense).

The only thing better, in my opinion, is shaving with Proraso on a warm summer morning in Chianti, Tuscany, with a view looking onto the countryside with vineyard in the horizon

It's one of the summer favorite over here!

Follow through with some Trumpers lime!

+1, after a long hot day of working in the yard it is a very good way to feel refreshed.

It snowed here this weekend though so it may be a bit until i get a chance to fully appreciate it.

Works great in summer... I tend to use it all year round though!

I love it, I don't know off the quality of my lather but I'm enjoying my lathering technique. Instead of applying it in a circular manner I fan in on, thus slapping my face with my brush. The air provided by the fan has a nice cooling effect on my skin. Here in Florida is feels great. Shaved last night with Williams as it was my first time shaving at night but I shaved earlier.. B.ut it wasn't the same.

And OP.. 90 degrees in Wisconsin? Not cool. I might be up there in July.. Mmmm Cheese Curds.. I don't want it to be 90.. My mom was up there for Mothers Day.. And it snowed..

Yes, there is...

A cool shower and a shave with Proraso followed by a cold beer and a good smoke on a hot summer day!

Did this today after working on my car all day in 90F+ degree heat, it was great.

I feel refreshed just reading that. I think tomorrow is going to be Proraso Monday!

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but...try a superlather of Mama Bear's "Awakenings" soap with Proraso cream...and finish the job with Osage Rub. You'll have icicles hanging off of your face.

 

[DizzyArnaz]

I'm a menthol addict, so I think Awakenings is going to be my next MB purchase. Thanks Shane!

 

[Walter Sobchak]

I really like the Proraso Shave (usually mixed with a little Provence Sante Green Tea Soap) followed by a liberal splash of Proraso ASL. Nice!

 

[DizzyArnaz]

I LOL'ed at your sig change Walter. Thanks for that.

YOU'RE KILLING YOUR FATHER LARRY!

 

[BillC]

My last two shaves were with Proraso cream. I'm usually a soap guy but the lather was great and the Proraso chill felt great on my face.

 

[djh]

Menthol and summer are great together! Just make sure that you don't get sunburnt before you go to shave.....

 

[walds11]

Oh and nothing wrong following it up with a splash of Proraso after shave splash. Yeah baby

Joe, my friend, you are not only an expert wet shaver, you are a poet!

Definitely. Trumpers Lime is great in the summer.

I have found that a cold/not been sitting in hot water shaving mug makes the experience better regardless of the cream/soap. I use Ogallala Bay Rum and have found that the colder the mug, the better the lather becomes and makes for a great shave. That said, Proraso has a nice cooling effect that would probably be brought out a bit more by the cold mug.
