    Cavere:
    I apply pre-shave only once at the beginning and then lather over it. For subsequent lathering before each pass I don't find pre-shave necessary. Only once before lathering at the start is enough.

    That's what I have done but the pre shave before each pass didn't even dawn on me until I was reading this thread.

    Costs like 3$ for a 2oz tube that lasts months. It has a little baby oil in it, as well as other emoliants that all contribute to soft whiskers.

    Keeps the razor burn and bumps down as well, which I have trouble with.

    Good Luck!

    T&H Pre-shave oil works well for me. I haven't tried other brands, FWIW.

    Regarding the Rise Baby Face Shave Gel.

    I got my first tube of it from Big Lots for like 1.39$. I have since found it on Amazon and other shops like Walgreens (occasionally they have it).

    I think the 4 pack on amazon is a great deal.

    Here is the Amazon Link for a 4 pack:

    Amazon.com: Rise After Shave Baby Face 2 oz. (Pack of 4) Sensitive Skin (Black): Health & Personal Care

    Very inexpensive too!

    Good Luck!

    (ps. Duh, listed wrong one, correct link below! So Sorry!)

    I use good old fashioned Noxzema in the blue tub. Inexpensive, lasts a long time and is basically the same as the Prorasso pre/post.
