Review: This is a great cream. Little Stinky. - A while back, frustrated by razor burn and ingrown hairs, I took to the internet to find a solution. I had a heavy beard, with skin that was dry and sensitive. I hated shaving, my face was read, burning and bleeding when I was done shaving, and I couldn't use an expensive blade for more than a week. One thing I was introduced to was wetshaving. Wetshaving can best be described as "old time" shaving. Wetshaving is far superior to the shaving technique that most men use today, and has greatly improved my shaving experience, and I don't dread shaving like I used to. Wetshaving soon became the search for the perfect shave. Trying to get a balance between a smooth well groomed face, and no irritation. In fact, as many can attest, it soon became an obsession. Over the last few years I have tried dozens of different razors, shaving creams, pre-shave oils,shaving bowls, badger brushes, aftershave balms and lotions, to find the perfect shave. I have bought everything from the highest end shaving creams at thirty or forty dollars a jar, to five dollar shave soaps. Having said all of that, Proraso is my favorite cream of all. It is an Italian produced cream that is very well respected by those who are "shaving gourmets." The one thing that you must know about Proraso is it has menthol, and eucalyptus, and lots of it. It has been described as having a cooling or even bracing sensation, so much so that some guys don't like to use it in the winter. It also has a very strong and unique smell. Some say it smells medicinal, I think it smells like an Italian sewer to be honest. So why do I think it is the best cream? Well, 1st it is a great value for the money. While it may look expensive, when using a brush, you only need an almond sized amount in your bowl for a clean shave. So a tube will last you 3 months easy. It is essentially no more expensive than the dried out gunk they sell in aerosol cans at your local drugstore and yet it performs as well as something 3x's the price. Second, it produces a rich lather that has a slickness to it, which I believe is one of the most important parts of a good shave. A slick shaving cream means less drag from the razor. Third, it is great for guys like me who have thick beards. Some prefer a lighter lather, but I have found that with a thick beard you need all the protection you can get. Fourth, it comes in a tube, which I prefer to a shaving soap (soaps dry out my face) and to tubs. I travel a lot and I find it easier to travel with a tube then with a tub, just fits in my Dop bag better for some reason. Also, I have found that creams you get in a tube (and Proraso especially) can still give you a good shave without a brush.Some other brands say they will give you a good shave with or without a brush, but not true in my experience. I don't take my brush with me when I travel, and the fact that I can still get a good lather while traveling is a big plus. Fifth, I like the cooling (bracing effect) that I described earlier. If you are like me and ingrown hairs and razor burn are your main worries, washing off your face with cold water after you shave is nice, kind of like putting an ice pack on an inflamed knee, it dulls the irritation. Finally, it works great with the other products in the line. I have never liked pre-shave oils because, while they do protect the face, they make it harder to apply shaving cream and gunk up your razor. However, with the Proraso preshave it is different. It is not an oil, but a paste, so it seems to come off easier (however, take it easy with the preshave, put on too much and it will actually produce a burning sensation from all the menthol). Also, I really like the Proraso aftershave, not too thick not too thin.Put them all together and you can get a very good shave. If you don't want to spend the money on the Proraso aftershave, the Nivea Sensitive Balm is great too and half the price and available at most drug stores. One thing that I must mention is that Proraso is sold in America as Bigelow Shaving Cream. When I bought a bottle from here I was disapointed that when it arrived from the seller (LCI) it was damaged and unusable.I use desertcart for the convenience, I don't have time to box stuff up and ship it back. So I went to the store that carries this product, and found that they had a buy 2 get 1 free sale. So I tossed this one, and just got 3 of the Bigelow creams (exact same ingredients) for 20 bucks plus tax. Now I am set for the next few months. Review: Love this product. - Proraso Refreshing Shaving Cream has become my preferred shaving cream because of its consistently outstanding quality. It creates a rich, thick lather that softens my beard and provides excellent glide, making every shave smooth and comfortable. The refreshing menthol and eucalyptus leave my skin feeling cool and energized without causing irritation. I've tried several other shaving creams over the years, but I always come back to Proraso because it delivers reliable results every time. A little goes a long way, so it's also an excellent value. If you're looking for a high-quality shaving cream that performs exceptionally well, I highly recommend giving this one a try. ## Features - Premium men’s shaving cream tube for all skin & beard types.

Or rather, do I need a brush/bowl to put this on?** A: Use a brush and bowl - squeeze just 1-2 cm into the bowl, moisten the brush with warm water, then stir the cream into a lather for 1/2-1 minute before applying with the brush. Save some for your second pass. **Q: Because of the oil content, does this cause pimples? Anyone have that experience?** A: The oil is emulsified, as it is in soaps. Ever see Fight Club? All soaps are rendered from some type of lipid (fat or oil), and the process of making the soap changes the oil. Although this is a shaving "cream," it is essentially a soft soap. So no, the oils are very different when they are in the form of a soap and will not cause acne. **Q: Is the cream suppose to be runny when it comes out of the tube? I have not had any luck bringing it to a lather with a Omega Synthetic shaving brush in a bowl. (I have watched the YouTube video's)** A: Mine isn't runny. It comes out kind of like a whipped cream texture, maybe a little thicker and heavier. It isn't thick like toothpaste but it definitely isn't runny. It should be like you would expect a cream to be. Never used synthetic shaving brush, just badger hair and it works very well. **Q: Is this shaving cream still good to buy if your using an ordianry Mach 3 razor?** A: Proraso "Green," as it's known, is a smooth, creamy, cooling cream that can be used with any wet-shaving razor. I would heartily recommend application with a brush, in order to build a good, protective lather, but it can be applied by hand if necessary. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a great cream.

Smells so good! Leaves my face nice and soft, but not greasy. Comfortable close shave, even with cheap disposable. For best results, use a shave cream brush to lather and apply. ## Frequently Bought Together - Proraso Refreshing Shaving Cream for Men - Proraso Protective Shaving Cream - Proraso Sensitive Shaving Cream for Men --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/1180859-refreshing-shaving-cream-for-men](https://www.desertcart.at/products/1180859-refreshing-shaving-cream-for-men) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-07-13*
