    Default Anyone used this

    Has anybody used Prep pre shave or Williams Aqua Velva, any comments please.
    I have seen these products on retro grooming. The Prep pre shave is about the same price as Proraso pre/post but twice as big. And I have not seen the williams in the U.K before. Thanks for your thoughts gents.

    The Ice Blue stays in my rotation I really like it.
    I cannot speak for the Prep.

    Prep, is like Noxzema only more expensive. I bought a jar of this and compared ingredients to Noxzema, and they are very similar, scent is very similar too. Prep shave soap is great lathers well, great from the warmer months. My 2 cents - save your money and go buy a big tub of Noxzema....

    Don't use a prep at all so can't comment on it. Aqua Velva Ice Blue is virtually the only after shave I use, just love it. Gives a cool refreshing feeling especially if applied twice and rubbed in. Won't break the bank either.

    Gotta love the AV Ice Blue for about 4 bux a bottle. It should be a mainstay in everyone's AS rotation.

    Yea, it would be hard to find a more retro mainstay AS, in North America anyway.

    I have to admit sometimes I get too shave too close fore comfort and my neck will turn red as a lobster because I seem to have sensitive skin so I added to my rotation L'Oreal Men Expert Hydra Sensitive Aftershave Balm. Because when my neck gets that red well remember that scene in the movie Home Alone slapping on the aftershave lotion? http://i.aoro.ro/view/8/loreal-paris...rshave___4.jpg
