Birchbox Breakdown

If you’re an old-fashioned kind of guy, you like a quality shoe shine, crisp pocket handkerchiefs, and a traditional straight razor shave. When a jam-packed appointment book doesn’t allow for cut-throat whisker removal, we suggest this concentrated, creamy soap, which brings to mind classic barber shops (especially the Italian variety) with its tingly sensation and old-school packaging.

How it Works

The Refreshing and Toning formula uses eucalyptus oil to tone and purify skin, plus menthol to deliver a tingly kick. Naturally healing shea butter in the Moisturizing and Nourishing formula helps hydrate dry skin and soften coarse beards, while sandalwood oil calms red, irritated skin.

How to Use

If you have normal skin and facial hair, try the Refreshing and Toning formula. For dry skin and/or thick hair, we suggest the Moisturizing and Nourishing version. In both cases, mix cream with a bit of water and apply a layer to a warm and wet face using a shaving brush or your fingers. You'll be amazed at the difference it makes in achieving a smooth, close shave.

Underwhelmed

I found the cream too eager to disappear when I applied it with my badger hair brush. I prefer shaving creams with a little more staying power.

So, my dad got this in his Birchbox. I "borrowed" it for a shave, and I have considered just asking him for it haha. It is great. It makes my legs very smooth and my dads face was incredibly smooth as well.

Proraso Shaving Cream
Sampled

For years I've been using the generic store shaving cream, or bar soap.. But after using this I knew that this is the way you are meant to shave. Smooth and easy, no cuts or razor burn after.

great product

I used the sample everyday until I finished it and look forward to trying more propaso products.

Best of the best

This is a perfect mix for comfort and that nice "tingly" fresh feeling. I dont have that thick of a beard, but still need to shave daily to stay clean and Proraso allows me to do that with no shave bumps. And, to top it off, it last forever!

Smooth

I liked the smooth feel of this product, and how smooth my shave was. It's a good, cheaper alternative to The Art of Shaving products that I use.

Love this Shaving Cream!

I love the menthol and tangy quality of this shaving cream. It's a favorite part of my morning routine now!

Awesome surprise...

Tried this a while back, forgot about it and was thrilled it was in my Birchbox. Great shave cream, great lather and better than what I'm using now. Love the fresh scent as well. It's a must have.

A fabulous shave and makes every morning an event. Like many have mentioned its a very vintage-y shave cream and does remind you of the barber shop. Loved it enough to go buy a whole 150ml tube. Sample was enough for about 5-6 shaves

Who uses cream

I am not used to shaving with cream, I like gels, and I remember why now. Product took more than a splash of water to get off my face after the shave and that's after a shave itself of dry tugging on my beard. Did not like the product and I will stick to my gels.
