You can't go wrong there. Straight Razor Designs' customer service is second to none, whether online or in a brick & mortar store.

it's pretty good. It's a thicker gel, so I use it on colder, drier days. It's a little heavy as a summer balm, but still quite good. It firms the skin up very well, leaves you with a nice tight feeling.

Excellent! Have you tried the different colors? I doubt that they'll let me smell them in the store lol

Just an FYI, the only Proraso product that I've seen at BBW is the re-branded (as C.O. Bigelow) shave cream.
Who knows, other stores may have more, just don't get your hopes up.

they let me smell them in the store, they had one of each that was already open. they do that with most of their products at the bath and body works near me. just ask, you may be surprised at how accomodating they are willing to be.

Not to worried about it. I really want the shave cream, but I also need a good aftershave balm, so when I saw that BBW was selling theirs for $10 bucks, I thought, "why not give it a try?" Not necessarily because its related to Proraso, but because its cheap, and people ere who have tried it seem to like it.

jockeys, you're my best friend today cause you're always posting good news on the thread! If only my professors were this helpful, I'd have a 4.0.

not to be a cynic but you know the people who work in CVS's they aren't experts in the products they sell they are just clerks.

haha true. but at least they should be able to look it up on a computer.

Update: I picked up a tube of C.O Bigelow, and it is wonderful stuff!

Good to hear. It's good stuff.
FYI, be careful not to turn the lid too tight. The caps are notorious for breaking.
