Opinons on the White Proraso?
i recently noticed that my local shoppers drug mart is now stocking the white Proraso in a tub that is supposed to be for sensitive skin and have aloe and green tea in it. so i bought some but don't have the stubble yet to try it out. i like the green proraso cream i have but it is in a tube, and i found it to dry my skin a little, and though i don't hate the menthol smell, it is a bit strong.
so has anyone used it?
opinions?
it seems like s really soft soap, so is it really a cream?

Thanked: 44If it's anything like the green Prorasso soap then it is a soap, just very soft.

Much different consistency than your triple-milled but still a soap. Very good product especially if you are not a huge fan of the menthol. IMO, gives a great lather and shave.

It does give a good lather and a good shave, but it's a little harder to lather. But once you get it, it worth it.

It is a good product in that price range. Not a top notch neither a waste of your money.
I chose the white over the basic green because I'm not a big fan of overwhelming vicks vapo rub menthol scent. The white consist a little bit menthol and it leaves a slightly cooling feeling during shaving which is nice. I'm not sure if one has a really sensitive skin is this anyway too much. Good thing is that proraso keeps the price quite low and if it doesn't suit you you won't loose a lot.
I don't ever had any problems with lathering and actually the white is quite easy to lather because it is softer than triple milled soaps so even softer brushes catch it very well.
I have a normal skin and haven't noticed any kind of drying feeling.

typically i use my soaps in combination with a cream (usually something i grabbed from my health food store, ie Kiss My Face, Natures Gate) and if need be i add a bit of glycerin. maybe its a little overboard but that in combo with the scuttle type mug i rigged up is really nice to use. now i can't wait to try it.

Thanked: 398I wonder if I can get the white tub locally as well. My local shoppers has the green tube, preshaving stuff, and green tub. I haven't been there in a while so I don't know if they got the white tub now.
I've always been interested in the white tub since I have sensitive skin..
