    I used Proraso Red today. I don't typically use Proraso. I keep it around because I love the scent. But after today's shave, wow. I've settled on B&M being my go to soap because I don't think anything else measures up to it. That conclusion is again confirmed. After today's shave my face just feels abused. While I was using it I could tell it wasn't performing as well as what I'm used to. I could feel the blade gripping as it passed. Now a few hours later my face has that "I'm glad I'm not shaving tomorrow" feel.

    Interesting, all the tub Proraso croaps have been fair middle of the road users for me, with the "single edge" creams being slightly better than the tubs.

    Gentlemen,,
    Recently I came across Proraso with Green Tea and Oatmeal and was surprised at how good it is, especially for those of us with sensitive skin. I did not care for the original Proraso, which has a heavy dose of eucalyptus that gives me a headache. The newer version with Green tea and Oatmeal is a joy to use. The product is made for sensitive skin, according to Proraso. Yes, I'll go for that. The stuff is really sweet on my skin. If you've never tried this version of Proraso, I suggest giving it a try.

    I've never tried Proraso White and am looking forward to giving it a try. I didn't care much for Proraso Red and felt it was a mediocre performer, at best, and therefore didn't use their products for years. However, I found that Proraso Single Blade creams are outstanding and are on the top of my list for best performing creams. Thanks for the review of Proraso White, Obie.

    If you have a Marshall's or T.J.Max near you, they have sporadically had tubs and tubes of Proraso for $4.99 lately.

    I used that once and threw it away. The scent was pleasant. But it was not slick or protective. My face felt like road rash.
