    Default Holy Cow!

    My tube of Proraso Green cream came today. I had been using the soap my wife bought me. I was really discouraged with the results. Poor lather, it seemed like my razor was dull, etc

    On bead of Proraso and a quick face lather and I just had the best shave of my life. And I did three passes with just the little bit on my brush. All my issues with straight razor shaving disappeared! All with a $10 cream!

    And it smells exactly like my grampas shave soap.

    The Proraso red is nice too.

    The blue is good as well. Different scent, but still classic.
    Smarter than I look or, not as dumb as I look. Whichever you prefer.

    Congrats, now you know how important a good shave cream/soap is to having a good shave. It need not be expensive either.

    That green with a cold water shave is a great shave. Feels great in the morning.
