Great on the skin
I have heard of Proraso many times and had it recommended to me to before purchasing. 80 years Proraso has been the leading Italian barber shop shaving brand. This new formula has been developed to create ample protective lather for a multi pass shave and has a very fresh, clean scent.Having sensitive skin meant i chose this one out of the line of products they made. It contains Aloe Vera and Vitamin E to help sooth and keep the skin fresh.This is best applied using a shaving brush and not by hand as you'll be able to use less and get a good lather. As for shaving I used a DE blade which was perfect and I didn't feel any harshness or burning, although I am still perfecting my technique and get a few nicks here and there, but this is not due to the shaving foam.Post shave my skin felt clean and fresh and I didn't have any shaving rash.I would highly recommend the shaving cream for a comfortable shave.

Really good shaving cream and great value for money
This is okay when applied with a hand, but even better when using a shaving brush. You can apply it directly from brush to the skin or lather in a bowl or mug. Only a tiny amount, similar to how much toothpaste you'd put on a toothbrush, is needed to whip up more than enough lather for a multi pass shave, with this providing good slickness, cushion, and protection.Use it anywhere on your body, it has a delicate scent which is a bit like fresh apple, and leaves the skin feeling good. I've been using it for months and see this one tube lasting a couple of years, if not more, so the value for money is absurdly good.

The Italians know how to make a great shaving product
Proraso was recommended to me about four years ago and with good reason. They have a long Italian history of making a fabulous shaving cream. I have been used to using their original menthol cream and soap which gave me that good morning wake-up refreshment that I needed without drying my skin.I saw this variant and thought I would give it a try. It is formulated for sensitive skin containing aloe vera and vitamin E. Inconsistent true form using a smaller amount, say the size of a small almond, and a badger brush gave a rich creamy thick lather that was not foamy or too thin. It spread really nicely on the skin. There is very little, I would even say no sent, to the cream which is a stark contrast to its original formula which could make your eyes water. In true proraso form my razor glided effortlessly with no harshness or burning/irritation at any time.Post-shave my skin was left feeling smooth and moisturised unlike many other shaving creams I have tried. I did not feel the need to using Alum bar either.I would highly recommend the shaving cream for a comfortable shave especially if you want something with very little aroma.

Proraso are top of my league table
I've used many a shaving cream and soap and these Proraso ones are consistently the best.My first one was the red sandalwood one which is superb so I decided to give this a go as it's the Aloe and Vit E one as I started getting a bit of burn.It lathers very well, I use a walnut sized amount in a chrome mixing bowl and I get a decent lather. This ones a bit bland smelling compared to the Sandalwood but it gives just as good a shave. It seems to have helped my face a little but I'll probably stick with the Sandalwood. Either way the Proraso soaps are superb and I highly recommend them. Just wish they did one that smelt as good as the Truffitt & Hill West Indian Limes, or maybe a coconut one.For reference I use Feather blades and currently an R89.Overall though, can't recommend Proraso enough!

Better than expected
Proraso is a new name in my home and only came about after deciding to get a safety razor after 35 years of using expensive disposables. I've bought z few of their products now, all of which I'm happy with, this one included.

Good leather - subtle scent
I received through Royal mail in good time but not fast.Traditional shaving cream, small amount is enough to make good leather for smooth shaving.The scent is not overpowering but very subtle.Recommended.

This is a brilliant shave cream from the Italian Shaving Masters Proraso
This is a brilliant shave cream from the Italian Shaving Masters Proraso. You don't need much with a decent shaving brush to get a good lather going and it's great on my sensitive skin. It lets my straight razor slide over my skin with ease and without discomfort, if only they also sold travel sized tubes for holiday, then I would never need to be without it

Brilliant shaving cream
One of the best shaving creams out there, slick, well lubricated and doesn't take long to whip up a very thick lather. Doesn't have an overpowering smell, faintly of liquorice and helps to keep your face smooth and supple too
