I've been shaving with a SR for six months and all is well now but the first couple of shaves where rough even with guidance from Shave Nation (Awesome site for all shaving needs by the way). I use Edwin Jagger Sandle wood shave creme and love it but I'm getting more and more curious about proraso products. How are they as far as quality and to get to my main question, can you use the tube of proraso like a shave soap? I.E. squeez a little in a mixing bowl and use a badger brush? And if not how do you use it?
