Shaving Soap

After trying Proraso in the green can, I thought I'd give the sandalwood scent a try, and Proraso did not disappoint! Same great lather which makes for a comfortable close shave. The sandalwood scent is strongest while shaving, but leaves only a slight hint on the skin afterwards. If you enjoy the fragrance of sandalwood, this version of Proraso won't let you down, especially while shaving. Personally, I prefer not walking around in a cloud of fragrance, and I very much like the gentle leave-behind of this shave soap compared to some that can leave you with watery eyes, struggling to breathe. The lather-up is easy and no fuss. I used a nylon bristle shaving brush and get excellent lather and laydown with it. The soap leaves a nice slick gliding surface, but not enough to impede the efficiency of the razor. You can either load the brush and work up a thick foam in a separate lathering bowl, or go straight to lathering directly on the skin. Compared to extra slick creams like Cremo, I'm finding that two passes is all I need with Proraso. Highly recommended both for veteran wet shavers and beginners. Easy to use, easy cleanup, and comes in its own custom shaving bowl. For the extra mileage you'll be getting from this shave soap, and the outstanding quality of the product, the price is unbeatable.

This is my favorite Proraso. For me it seems to be the most easy to lather and the most cushioning. The green Proraso is good but it also has a ton of menthol, so it’s not good all the time. The white one smells great but it seems to need a better balance of water to soap. The blue one doesn’t smell like anything and didn’t feel much different than the white one. The red one smells really good, and lathers very well and seems to calm down the irritation on my face better. I also noticed that instead of the vegetable base of the white Proraso this one appears to have beef tallow(stearic acid) in it which would explain why I believe that it performs better overall. Something about beef tallow protects the face well and helps the razor glide. I used shave oil too because their pre shave isn’t that great I think. Also the cream is convenient but i recommend the tubs because they are actually less work on my opinion to lather and they are cheaper and last longer than the tubes. Just a heads up.

This shaving soap works incredibly well if you have a thick or coarse beard. It lathers up easily in the bowl and really softens the hair, which helps provide a much smoother, closer shave with less irritation. On top of the great performance, the sandalwood scent is fantastic—classic, masculine, and not overpowering. Highly recommend giving this a try

Good lather and enjoyable smell.

Shave every day & you'll always look clean. The red proraso smells super duper good. It's a smooth lather & works really well for shaving. Miles above canned goo, this stuff will last you a long time, making it well worth the price.

This is the best shaving soap/cream I have ever used. In the past, I have only used Nivea, Gillette, and Barbasol shaving creams. I recently purchased a Yaqi shaving brush out of curiosity, and decided to pull the trigger on this Proraso shaving soap based on company history and customer reviews. Well, now I understand why Proraso has the loyal following and stellar reputation that it does. I find it quite different from the other shaving creams I used. I don’t know how else to explain it other than to say that this shaving soap felt thicker, creamier, and more luxurious than anything else I used previously. I also got a better/closer shave when using my Mach3 blades, and my skin felt better afterwards. Meaning, I didn’t feel the same type of discomfort or irritation right after shaving that I felt when using those other shaving creams. I didn’t feel the immediate urge to apply after shave, although, after trying this Proraso shaving soap, I also went ahead and purchased the Proraso after shave balm. The smell of this shaving soap is also pleasant..masculine but mild. I can definitely say that if you’re on the fence, you should definitely try this. It’s without a doubt a high quality shaving soap/cream, and in my opinion, worth the higher price.

I bought all 3 Proraso soaps (Green, White, Red). With any of the 3 you can get a good lather and a good shave. I personally didn't care for the mentholated green soap. I could feel a slight menthol sensation in my eyes when I applied the whipped soap to my face. Also - Not always a big fan of the cooling sensation it provides. If you like that, it might be the soap for you. Those things aside, it has a pleasant, fresh scent. The white is for sensitive skin, but I never noticed a difference on MY skin. It also has a pleasant, fresh scent, and is probably the mildest scent of the three. I'll likely return to it every once in a while, just for a change. I suspect the "red" might work very slightly better on stiff stubble, which is what it's designed for. (It should be allowed to sit on the stubble for a minute to work best.) In the end, I think the scent is probably as important a distinction as any, and my preference is for the Sandalwood (red). I'd rate them as: Green 4 stars, at most. White 4.5 stars Red 5 stars

Great shaving soap. It’s affordable and very high quality. The smell is not what I expected, but it’s actually very pleasant. Soft, sweet, and clean, not as woodsy as I thought it might be with the sandalwood. Plus no animal products in it. (Beef tallow is gross!) Will be buying more!

This product is a perfect well-rounder. You can use the soap directly from its bowl, and it has a decent scent and texture too. On another note, I have sensitive skin and it didn’t irritate my skin at all. Definitely would recommend.

Ich habe die Proraso Red Sapone Barbe Dure Rasierseife in der 150 ml-Packung ausprobiert und möchte meine Erfahrungen mit diesem Produkt teilen. Zunächst einmal ist der Duft der Rasierseife wirklich angenehm. Sie hat eine markante, holzige Note, die sich aus einer Kombination von Sandelholz und sheabutter ergibt. Dieser Duft sorgt für ein luxuriöses Rasiererlebnis und macht die Rasur zu einem echten Genuss. Es ist nicht nur angenehm für mich, sondern auch für meine Haut, die nach der Anwendung sehr gut duftet. Die Konsistenz der Rasierseife ist perfekt. Sie lässt sich leicht aufschäumen, sei es mit einem Rasierpinsel oder direkt mit den Händen. Ich bevorzuge es, einen Pinsel zu verwenden, da dieser die Seife optimal aufschäumt und mir hilft, eine reichhaltige und cremige Schaumschicht zu erzeugen. Das Ergebnis ist ein dicker, stabiler Schaum, der sich gut auf der Haut verteilen lässt und für eine glatte Rasur sorgt. Ein weiterer großer Vorteil der Proraso Rasierseife ist ihre Hautpflegeformel. Sie enthält pflegende Inhaltsstoffe wie sheabutter, die nicht nur die Haut geschmeidig macht, sondern auch die Rasur erleichtert. Die Rasierklinge gleitet sanft über die Haut, ohne zu ziehen oder zu irritieren. Ich habe festgestellt, dass ich nach der Rasur weniger Rötungen oder Irritationen habe, was für mich sehr wichtig ist. Die 150 ml-Packung ist auch sehr ergiebig. Man benötigt nur eine kleine Menge, um genügend Schaum für eine vollständige Rasur zu erzeugen. Das macht das Produkt nicht nur langlebig, sondern es ist auch kosteneffizient. Für den Preis erhält man eine qualitativ hochwertige Rasierseife, die ihr Geld wert ist. Ein kleiner Nachteil könnte sein, dass sie nicht so einfach zu transportieren ist, wenn man oft reist. Die Verpackung ist zwar robust, aber ich bevorzuge normalerweise kleinere Formate für unterwegs. Für die tägliche Anwendung zu Hause ist die Größe jedoch vollkommen in Ordnung und bietet einen ausgezeichneten Wert. Zusammenfassend kann ich die Proraso Red Sapone Barbe Dure Rasierseife jedem empfehlen, der auf der Suche nach einer hochwertigen Rasierseife ist. Der angenehme Duft, die hervorragende Schaumproduktion und die hautpflegenden Eigenschaften machen sie zu einem hervorragenden Produkt für die tägliche Rasur. Wenn Sie ein angenehmes und effektives Rasurerlebnis wünschen, ist diese Rasierseife definitiv eine gute Wahl.

Rewelacja 😀

This is brilliant shaving soap. Smells great and lathers really easily. It’s super competitive from a price point too. My go-to soap these days.

Tengo que ser sincero, llevo bastantes años con el afeitado tradicional y siempre evité a Proraso, pensando que sería el típico producto italiano sobrevalorado, que con ese precio seguramente sería mediocre pero con buen marketing para engatusar. Pues estaba equivocado, es un producto de calidad con un precio contenido. La espuma que hace es densa y lubrica bien, permitiendo deslizar la cuchilla con facilidad, sin provocar irritación. Este estuche rojo está enfocado a las barbas duras y doy fe que hace su trabajo ablandando el pelo. Como punto negativo, el tema del aroma es algo muy subjetivo, personalmente lo encuentro bastante anodino, no es el típico jabón que estás deseando volver a abrir para olerlo, es un olor a jabón muy normalito que quizás le quita un poco de gracia al momento del afeitado.
