Proraso Pre-Shave Conditioning Cream for Men, Protective Formula for Dry Skin with Vitamin E and Aloe Vera, 3.6 oz

I do not use canned shave foams or gels, and have ditched multi-blade shaving cartridges, as they are too expensive and have to be disposed of in landfills. Instead, I bought a quality "double edge" razor and use quality double edge razor blades that are recyclable. The cost of each blade, that can be used multiple times, is around ten cents. Having been a wet shaver for many years, I've tried many products for use during the morning shave ritual. Proraso makes a great line of quality shave products, made in Italy, and this pre-shave cream works great. It penetrates and softens the beard stubble that assists the shave soap to make removal of the stubble an effortless process.

Love this for a preshave. Softens the beard for a closer shave

Everyone knows Proraso products are some of the best. I'll always be a lifer when it comes to Proraso grooming products!

Works great and smells fantastic. I have ales used beard oil for my pre-shave, but after reading of some other products, I decided to try this. It doesn’t disappoint. Fantastic stuff!

This smells great and gives a great shave my only gripe is the menthol. Why add menthol to a product that is otherwise perfect?

I've been using Proraso products for about 5yrs and have always been happy with the way my face feels both before with the pre-shave all the way to the after shave. Ir's all good. Will buy again.

Works great stopped using cuz the shave cream was plenty for me. To much stuff on my face this stuff shave cream aftershave blah blah

This product performs exactly as described. As someone with a difficult beard, this makes everything a lot easier and less bloody. The scent, as others have mentioned, is more nostalgic than refined. This is my second jar and I will be ordering another one soon. Pro tip: Do not drop the jar on your toes.
